试论构建中国式的认罪协商制度

认罪协商制度是在犯罪激增、司法资源紧缺而又要维护司法公正、维护当事人正当权益等各种因素下作用、平衡的产物。为解决积案问题并保障必要的公正,设立认罪协商制度需要完善的程序设计。这包括认罪协商程序的适用范围、起止的期限、提起的主题、协商的具体内容、协商后诉讼权利的丧失、被害人的同意、指定辩护人问题、法官角色、协议的撤销等。     

The future of Fair Trade coffee: dilemmas facing Latin America's small-scale producers

Fair Trade has become a dynamic and successful dimension of an emerging counter-tendency to the neo-liberal globalisation regime. This study explores some of the dilemmas facing the Fair Trade movement as it seeks to broaden and deepen its impact among the rural poor of Latin America's coffee sector. We argue that the efforts to broaden Fair Trade's economic impact among poor, small-scale producers are creating challenges for deepening the political impact of a movement that is based on social justice and environmental sustainability. The study is based on two years' research and seven case studies of Mexican and Central American small-scale farmer cooperatives producing coffee for the Fair Trade market.     

应急分析测试系统的建设构想与初步实践

许多突发性公共安全事故的应急处理中,分析测试资源因为能够直接参与危险物的定性和定量识别、判断危害性演变趋势和范围、为现场处理和防止危险扩大提供技术依据,并为避免同类事故重复发生提供安全评测技术而成为应急科技支撑的重要组成部分。为集中、高效和充分发挥我国分析测试资源在应急事件中的技术支撑作用,有必要尽快建设应急分析测试系统。本文阐述了应急分析测试系统建设的背景、基本构想和框架设计以及在国家科技基础条件平台建设计划支持下应急分析测试系统建设初步实践的成效。     

值得深思的刑法“宽”“严”倒错问题——以常见多发型家庭暴力犯罪为例

在刑罚轻缓化背景下研讨宽严相济政策,不应忽视现行刑法中“宽”“严”倒错现象的存在。就常见多发型家庭暴力犯罪而言,突出地表现在,一方面,是刑法对虐待罪、伤害罪的弱软失度,另一方面,是刑法对“以暴抗暴”型杀人行为的过份苛酷。因此,有必要从相关刑法规定上予以完善。     

IMMIGRATION POLICY,BORDER SECURITY,AND MIGRANT DEATHS: AN IMPACT EVALUATION OF LIFE‐SAVING EFFORTS UNDER THE BORDER SAFETY INITIATIVE*

Subsequent to U.S. Border Patrol (USBP) efforts to control illegal immigration throughout the 1990s, concern arose over an apparent increase in deaths of illegal migrants as they began to undertake more treacherous routes to enter the United States from Mexico. In response, the Border Safety Initiative (BSI) was created to increase safety along the southwest border. Using multiple data sources, including the USBP BSI Incident Tracking System, this study evaluated the impact of life‐saving efforts performed under the BSI program. Results indicate that there has been no overall reduction in the rate of migrant deaths since BSI has been in operation. However, an evaluation of BORSTAR search and rescue teams and the 2003 Lateral Repatriation Program (LRP), which returned apprehended migrants from Tucson sector to less hazardous places along the border, were found to be effective in preventing migrant deaths. Policy Implications: Critics of U.S. immigration policy claim that the only way reductions in migrant deaths along the U.S.‐Mexico border can be achieved is through liberalization of immigration policy and relaxing of border security. Yet, for more than a decade, U.S. policy makers have increased restrictions on immigration and have tightened security at the borders. Considering this, alternative means must be deployed in order to save migrant lives in the near term rather than waiting for a reversal of immigration policy. This study suggests that proactive life‐saving measures implemented through a harm‐reduction strategy can have some impact on saving migrant lives.     

对构建经侦工作“三大机制”的思考

如何适应市场经济的新情况、新问题,有效地防范和打击日益凸现且又隐蔽狡诈的经济犯罪,确保我国社会主义市场经济秩序稳健发展和国家经济安全运行,无疑是公安机关面临的一个重要课题.为此,要建立健全防范和打击经济犯罪的预警机制、综合防控机制、办案协作机制,提高防范和打击经济犯罪整体水平,确保经济可持续发展.     

英国知识产权法律适用研究

作为英美法系的主要代表国家和欧盟的重要成员国,英国有关知识产权法律适用的立法,无疑对于我国构建相关立法具有重要的借鉴意义。在遵循欧盟相关立法和实施诸多国际公约的基础上,英国国内已形成了较为完备并具有英国特色的知识产权法律适用体系,体现了国际化与本土化的平衡、知识产权共性与个性的结合、法律适用方法与规则的融合。     

中国与印度经济发展模式及其转型之比较

作为世界上最大的两个发展中国家,中国和印度几乎是在同一条起跑线上开始了各自的工业化以及经济社会现代化发展历程。无论从发展经济学还是世界经济学的角度,都可以从这两个典型的大国模型的比较研究中,在发展战略理论和经济政策实践这两方面获得有益的启示。近期以来,国内外学者对印度经济发展能否超过中国有不少讨论,本文根据中、印两国1980—2000年产业结构的演进和制度安排的变化,来比较两国经济发展模式及其转型的异同和得失,从另一个角度思考印度经济发展能否超过中国的问题。     

布什政府亚太政策的调整

本文试对两届布什政府亚太政策的演化和特点加以梳理和比较。在布什第一任期,美国对亚太战略和安全利益多元化认识程度加深,加快了地区军事安全结构整合步伐,使亚太各次区域在军事安全方面联动性加强。但由于过分突出“反恐第一”等安全考虑,布什政府对亚太自身经济和政治合作进程加速发展缺乏足够的政策敏感和心理准备,导致其政策与地区局势的发展节奏有所“脱节”。因此,在第二任期,布什政府主要从三个方面着手加强美国对亚太事务的影响力,力图巩固美国主导的地区秩序。但其新政策面临不少困难,多种新因素导致美国主导的亚太“辐辏”结构的局限性日益显现。
