诉权理论的批判与重构

诉权究竟是什么?本文从批判现有几大诉权学说的共同缺陷出发,通过考察诉权与法律的关系、诉权与审判权的关系和诉权的存在形式,提出诉权的人权权源论、诉权的利益保障价值论和诉权的运动状态论,力图从全新的视角探求诉权的本源。     

The Relationship Between Religious and Spiritual Factors and the Perpetration of Intimate Personal Violence

Despite some understanding of general correlates and possible antecedents to intimate partner violence (IPV) within the Christian community, the impact of religious and spiritual factors tends to be confounded by other factors and is often misjudged. Archival data from Wave III of the National Longitudinal Study of Adolescent Health (Add Health) were used to examine the impact of nine religious and spiritual factors on the probability of IPV perpetration by males, aged 18 to 26, who nominally classified themselves as Catholic, Protestant, or Christian. Logistic regression results indicated that IPV perpetration could not be adequately predicted from the religious and spiritual factors. Given the geographic breadth and the size of the Add Health sample, no finding of a predictive model for Christian male-perpetrated IPV challenges the paradigm that religious and spiritual factors should be overtly addressed in faith-based batterers’ programs targeting young adult males.     

Anticorruption agencies: expressive,constructivist and strategic uses

This article explores the reasons for the introduction of anticorruption agencies of a specific type in Eastern Europe. It is argued that one of the important functions of these agencies—which are stronger on information gathering, coordination and strategy rather than on investigation of concrete cases—is to give to the government some leverage over the anticorruption discourse. Presenting the anticorruption commissions and agencies as (discourse-controlling) instruments gives an answer to the troubling question why governing parties are at all interested in the introduction of such bodies. Apart from instrumentalization in political discourse, anticorruption bodies in Eastern Europe have had other effects as well. As shown in the Baltic case, institutional engineering provides for a brief window of opportunity during which political forces committed to integrity could gain the upper hand. The problem in Eastern Europe, however, is not the lack of such windows of opportunities—it is more the lack of really committed political forces capable of continuous and consistent anticorruption effort.     

《不扩散核武器条约》:分歧与弥合

《不扩散核武器条约》自1970年生效以来在防止核扩散方面发挥了重要作用。但是,条约缔约国对《不扩散核武器条约》及其履行情况一直存在着分歧。近年来,由于核裁军进程缓慢而防止核扩散力度加大,分歧进一步加深。这些分歧如果得不到解决,势必损害国际核不扩散机制的有效性。本文认为,弥合这些分歧不仅要求对症下药而且要消除分歧的根源。
