试论拯救环境危机的多维视角

人类的活动已经破坏了自己赖以生存的自然条件,使整个地球陷入了资源枯竭和环境污染的危机。人类限制自己危害环境活动的途径,除了要在观念和意识上引起重视而外,还要通过法律和行政制度的强制力来约束人的行为,同时还应该在构建共同的生态环境伦理方面通力合作,共同参与,为人类共同的未来做出自己的努力。     

朝核危机管理与中国的外交抉择

本文集中探讨第二次朝鲜核危机以来中国有关朝核问题的政策,认为中国之所以打破常规,积极参与朝核危机的“国际管理”,主要受历史感情、经济政治与安全等方面的多重国家利益及中国应负的“国际责任”所驱动。在参与管理朝核危机过程中,中国排除困难,坚持半岛无核化、坚持和平与多边协商解决,反对激化矛盾,促成并主持了多轮“六方会谈”,推动有关各方在朝鲜半岛无核化及和平解决朝核问题等方面达成了原则协议,缓和了紧张局势,外交成就有目共睹。今后随着局势发展,中国将不断适应形势,调整有关朝核问题的政策,但仍将坚持半岛无核化及和平解决等原则,并将继续推进“六方会谈”。     

老欧洲遇上新问题--发展模式改革引发欧洲一些国家社会动荡

近一段时间以来,以反对政府改革传统福利政策为主要内容的抗议风潮在多个欧洲国家同时爆发并持续升级、激化,并有引发国内政治危机的可能,这引起欧洲各界及世界各国的极大震动.法国政府的"首次雇佣合同"法案招致全国持续不断的抗议活动,且愈演愈烈,学生和工会组织已经两次发动上百万人参加抗议活动,这是法国去年10月经历了1968年以来最严重的社会骚乱后的又一次社会危机.     

Fraud: The Characteristic Crime of the Twenty-First Century

In the same way that larceny characterized much of twentieth century, fraud will likely characterize the twenty-first century. Larceny remains the most common oi all serious crimes, but fraud may overtake larceny as the crime of choice in the future, because of changes in our ownership, storage, and movement of property. Fraud involves purposely obtaining the property of another through deception, and its popularity as a crime of choice is growing. Entrusting property to the custody oi others, storing property at remote locations, and electronic movement of property are shown to be major changes in the way we treat property and increase opportunities for theft. The connection between fraud and many of the serious crimes of the twenty-first century are shown in the facts of recent cases. The motivation of thefl behind many frauds is also shown to be used to fund larger criminal objectives, such as illegal immigration and terrorism.

NO COMMUNITY IS AN ISLAND: THE EFFECTS OF RESOURCE DEPRIVATION ON URBAN VIOLENCE IN SPATIALLY AND SOCIALLY PROXIMATE COMMUNITIES*

The link between resource deprivation and urban violence has long been explored in criminological research. Studies, however, have largely ignored the potential for resource deprivation in particular communities to affect rates of violence in others. The relative inattention is notable because of the strong theoretical grounds to anticipate influences that extend both to geographically contiguous areas and to those that, though not contiguous, share similar social characteristics. We argue that such influences—what we term spatial and social proximity effects, respectively—constitute a central feature of community dynamics. To support this argument, we develop and test theoretically derived hypotheses about spatial and social proximity effects of resource deprivation on aggregated and disaggregated homicide counts. Our analyses indicate that local area resource deprivation contributes to violence in socially proximate communities, an effect that, in the case of instrumental homicides, is stronger when such communities are spatially proximate. We conclude by discussing the implications of our findings for theories focused on community‐level social processes and violence, and for policies aimed at reducing crime in disadvantaged areas.
