社会群体性突发事件的应急管理机制研究——以北京市为例

社会群体性突发事件是经济转轨、社会转型中利益矛盾和冲突的一种尖锐表现,认识和处置不当会对社会稳定与和谐发展造成严重影响。本文在已有研究成果的基础上,指明了北京市社会群体性突发事件的特殊性,分析了北京市社会群体性突发事件应急管理机制的现状及问题,进而提出有针对性的对策与建议。     

Medicaid program; review and approval process for Section 1115 demonstrations. Final rule

This final rule will implement provisions of section 10201(i) of the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act of 2010 that set forth transparency and public notice procedures for experimental, pilot, and demonstration projects approved under section 1115 of the Social Security Act relating to Medicaid and the Children's Health Insurance Program (CHIP). This final rule will increase the degree to which information about Medicaid and CHIP demonstration applications and approved demonstration projects is publicly available and promote greater transparency in the review and approval of demonstrations. It will also codify existing statutory requirements pertaining to seeking advice from Indian health care providers and urban Indian organizations for section 1115 demonstration projects, and for the first time impose as regulatory requirements tribal consultation standards that were previously only published as guidance documents.     

Approval tests and standards for closed-circuit escape respirators. Final rule

This final rule announces updated requirements that the National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH or Agency), located within the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) in the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS or Department), will employ to test and approve closed-circuit respirators used for escaping atmospheres considered to be immediately dangerous to life and health, including such respirators required by the Mine Safety and Health Administration (MSHA) for use in underground coal mines. NIOSH and MSHA jointly review and approve this type of respirator used for mine emergencies under regulations concerning approval of respiratory protective devices. NIOSH also approves these respirators for use in other work environments where escape equipment may be provided to workers, such as on vessels operated by U.S. Navy and Coast Guard personnel. The purpose of these updated requirements is to enable NIOSH and MSHA to more effectively ensure the performance, reliability, and safety of CCERs.     

World Trade Center Health Program requirements for the addition of new WTC-related health conditions. Final rule

Title I of the James Zadroga 9/11 Health and Compensation Act of 2010 amended the Public Health Service Act (PHS Act) to establish the World Trade Center (WTC) Health Program. Sections 3311, 3312, and 3321 of Title XXXIII of the PHS Act require that the WTC Program Administrator develop regulations to implement portions of the WTC Health Program established within the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS). The WTC Health Program, which is administered by the Director of the National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH), within the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), provides medical monitoring and treatment to eligible firefighters and related personnel, law enforcement officers, and rescue, recovery and cleanup workers who responded to the September 11, 2001, terrorist attacks in New York City, Shanksville, PA, and at the Pentagon, and to eligible survivors of the New York City attacks. This final rule establishes the processes by which the WTC Program Administrator may add a new condition to the list of WTC-related health conditions through rulemaking, including a process for considering petitions by interested parties to add a new condition.     

Medicare and Medicaid program; regulatory provisions to promote program efficiency, transparency, and burden reduction. Final rule

This final rule identifies reforms in Medicare and Medicaid regulations that CMS has identified as unnecessary, obsolete, or excessively burdensome on health care providers and beneficiaries. This rule increases the ability of health care professionals to devote resources to improving patient care, by eliminating or reducing requirements that impede quality patient care or that divert providing high quality patient care. This is one of several rules that we are finalizing to achieve regulatory reforms under Executive Order 13563 on Improving Regulation and Regulatory Review and the Department's Plan for Retrospective Review of Existing Rules.     

喀斯特石漠化对贵州民族地区经济发展的影响及防治对策

贵州是一个少数民族聚集的山区省份,也是一个喀斯特面积最集中的省份。喀斯特地型往往与贫困落后相联系,由于环境质量下降,自然生态退化严重,影响了我省民族地区经济和社会的发展,加强对喀斯特石漠化的治理,对贵州民族地区经济的发展具有重要的意义。     

关于民族地区乡土人才资源开发问题的思考

实现农村经济增长方式的转变与农村生产力结构的战略调整,最关键是要加大农村资本的投资,下大力度搞好民族地区乡土人才资源的开发,开发培养农村的乡土人才。只有有了高素质的民族地区乡土人才资源,充分发挥民族地区乡土人才的作用,才能实现农村生产结构的战略性调整,才能将科技转化为生产力,才能振兴农村经济的发展。     

生态旅游是惠州旅游业发展的方向——对惠州发展生态旅游业的调研与思考

生态旅游对促进生态文明、实行可持续发展具有重大的积极意义,是惠州旅游业发展的方向。惠州具有丰富的生态旅游资源、得天独厚的区位和良好的软环境优势,应当突出地方资源新特色,完善多元化旅游管理机制,建立科学的生态旅游新模式,优化生态旅游发展新环境,努力把生态旅游业做强做大。     

治理河流污染的制度激励悖论分析

为了治理日益加剧的河流污染,从中央到地方都相应出台了各种激励措施,但是这些措施并未起到显著效果,却形成了制度激励悖论。排污企业与地方政府在经历了新政策出台初的短暂扰动后,恢复原有均衡。要打破这一均衡,必须改变博弈各方的收益结构、可选策略集以及信息结构等,才有望建立符合科学发展观的最优均衡。
