Facilitating the Delivery of Justice Services to Rural and Remote Communities

There are many projects that facilitate the delivery of services to various cyber communities around the world (see S. Turkle , Life on the Screen. Identity in the Age of the Internet, Weidenfeld & Nicolson, London, 1996). The major projects concentrate on helping the building up of these cyber communities and facilitating the training and awareness raising of these communities. The communities are educated on the use of technology and the importance of using internet and multimedia based technology to enhance some or a few aspects of their lives. The delivery of health and justice related services require the development of overall technology infrastructure that incorporates the use of existing and planned telecommunications developments for remote and rural communities. The facilitation required for the delivery of these services to remote and rural areas requires that the government and private sector cooperate to provide the necessary environment (P. Uimonen Internet as a Tool for Social Development UNRISD, Geneva, 1997) . In the developed world this has been achieved by the governments providing generic funding for the advancement of the telecommunication carriers that in turn provide the infrastructure development to rural areas. In the developing world, the issues are very different and there is currently aid related funds being channelled to improve the telecommunication barriers faced by these countries (International Telecommunications Union Report, 1997) . This paper attempts to outline a model to deliver justice services to remote and rural communities. The infrastructure issues that help to deliver such services effectively and an evaluation format for such a project will be outlined. The training issues involved in such a project will also be discussed. The paper will identify factors that help to provide these services to a larger proportion of the rural population.

吉登斯社会分层理论述评

吉登斯的社会分层理论集中体现在他的阶级结构化理论中。它以市场能力与准技术关系为轴心进行社会分层,将阶级关系作为一种社会结构,在阶级活动和阶级结构的互动中考察各个阶层的流动。依据“分工的规律是阶级划分的基础”的原则,可以解析其理论认识上的得失,阐明其理论在中国当前构建和谐社会中的现实意义。

关于禁毒情报信息共享与网络建设的构想

步入新世纪 ,毒品犯罪的网络化、隐蔽性特点愈来愈突出 ,然而 ,当前我们的禁毒工作仍然停留在单打独斗、信息闭塞、人工办案阶段 ,大大滞后于毒品犯罪的发展。若要有所突破 ,必然向禁毒工作的一体化和情报信息的网络化发展 ,而禁毒情报信息共享和网络建设必将推动禁毒工作改革的深入发展。

Does the Content of Political Appeals Matter in Motivating Participation? A Field Experiment on Self-disclosure in Political Appeals

Although robust citizen participation is fundamental to a healthy democracy, we still lack a clear sense of how to motivate participation. This paper presents the results of an experimental study designed to see if the content of political appeals matters in motivating participation. Previous research in this area has had mixed results. This paper finds that political appeals that include some self-disclosure about the person making the request triggers a liking heuristic that causes subjects to be more likely to comply with a request for action. Subjects receiving the treatment appeal are significantly more likely to donate money to support a political cause.
