Nonprofit Service Continuity and Responses in the Pandemic: Disruptions,Ambiguity, Innovation,and Challenges

This Viewpoint essay examines the service delivery responses of nonprofit organizations that offer homeless support services amid the COVID-19 pandemic. Government mandates and severe human needs have forced nonprofits to adapt quickly. Literature reviews provide little information about how nonprofits should manage service continuity under pandemics. Data collected from websites and interviews with nonprofits executives provide an understanding of adaptations and innovations. The study uses a crisis response model—“Disruptions-Ambiguities-Innovations-Challenges” (DAIC)—to demonstrate how social service nonprofits are responding to challenges under COVID-19. Lessons learned are useful for scholars and practitioners to understand ways nonprofits have remained agile and innovative.     

中国版证券集团诉讼制度研究--以新《证券法》第95条第3款为分析对象

新《证券法》第95条第3款确立了我国证券民事纠纷领域由投资者保护机构主导的"默示加入、明示退出"集团诉讼制度。美国律师主导的退出制集团诉讼、我国台湾地区投资者保护机构主导的加入制团体诉讼,以及我国香港地区证券监管部门主导的证券民事赔偿制度,均取得了不错的实践效果。我国证券集团诉讼作为一项新事物,存在缺乏相应的程序性设计、投保机构的性质和职责不够明确、律师在集团诉讼中的角色定位不够清晰等不足。结合域外集团诉讼经验和我国具体实际,建议细化证券集团诉讼的案件选取、适格原告登记、原告退出权公告、法院审理判决、赔偿金支付等诉讼流程,明确投保机构公益性质及其诉讼代表人职责,并鼓励律师参与集团诉讼。
