Managing incidental findings in human subjects research: analysis and recommendations.

No consensus yet exists on how to handle incidental findings (IFs) in human subjects research. Yet empirical studies document IFs in a wide range of research studies, where IFs are findings beyond the aims of the study that are of potential health or reproductive importance to the individual research participant. This paper reports recommendations of a two-year project group funded by NIH to study how to manage IFs in genetic and genomic research, as well as imaging research. We conclude that researchers have an obligation to address the possibility of discovering IFs in their protocol and communications with the IRB, and in their consent forms and communications with research participants. Researchers should establish a pathway for handling IFs and communicate that to the IRB and research participants. We recommend a pathway and categorize IFs into those that must be disclosed to research participants, those that may be disclosed, and those that should not be disclosed.     

Building the Other, Constructing Ourselves: Spatial Dimensions of International Humanitarian Response

Humanitarian reconstruction after a large-scale natural disaster has become a key site of international politics; a site where global assumptions, relationships, and responsibilities are negotiated, solidified and questioned. While post-crisis response strategies and institutional practices have strong spatial and material characteristics, these are rarely considered as significant—either to the reconstruction effort, or to international politics more generally. This article identifies and examines the "auxiliary space" created by the everyday practices of international aid workers and asks whether its effects may lead to unanticipated and potentially transformative outcomes not only for the reconstruction effort, but also for global North-South relations at large. The article concludes that post-crisis reconstruction sites may offer both cautionary and emancipatory potential for the evolution of international relations.     

亚洲的普遍性想象与中国的政治叙事——回应查特杰教授的理论

查特杰关于政治社会的论述,针对的正是社会精英特别是理论精英对于无法进入公民社会的大众社会政治的无视,基于此,查特杰建立了他对当今知识状况和话语霸权关系的批判.虽然查特杰把政治社会的理论视为亚洲大部分发展中国家可以普遍使用的分析模式的观点值得商榷,但是他的方法论却提醒我们重新反思关于"普遍性"概念的理论认识,关于中国本土政治面貌复杂性的认识.     

More than bricks and sticks: Five components of community development corporation capacity

Abstract

Community development researchers, practitioners, and funders have recently begun to emphasize the need for community development corporations (CDCs) to build capacity. However, the practice of using the term capacity without carefully defining it allows for a wide range of meanings to be assigned to the term and hinders efforts to study and measure it. Capacity is often defined narrowly in terms of housing production, oversimplifying a complex concept and process.

To remedy this shortcoming, we create a framework that views capacity more broadly by dividing it into five components: resource, organizational, programmatic, network, and political. We believe that this more concrete way of thinking about capacity will be particularly useful to practitioners, funders, and policy makers. We apply our definitions to CDCs, particularly those that work with local intermediaries called community development partnerships (CDPs), in order to better understand the role of CDPs in the process of building capacity.     

Examining Factors Co-Existing with Interpersonal Violence in Lesbian Relationships

Interpersonal violence within lesbian relationships is a significant yet understudied problem. Women attending a gay pride festival in Atlanta, GA, were asked to complete a survey concerning same-sex interpersonal violence. Women who reported being in a current or previous same-sex partner relationship were included in the analyses (N = 226). Factors that occurred in the context of interpersonal violence were investigated: substance use, HIV/STI risk behaviors, barriers to reporting abuse, and attitudes inhibiting seeking of social support. In addition, the survey assessed relationship-related power dynamics. Results of multivariate analyses support the hypotheses that power imbalance and inequality when making sex-related decisions within women’s same-sex relationships are associated with interpersonal violence. Further findings suggested that a combination of factors must be considered when dealing with and reducing the risk for violence in same-sex relationships.     

协商民主与多元文化主义的症结——兼析多元文化主义的发展及其影响

多元文化主义在20世纪90年代中后期遭到了质疑和批评,这与其自身的症结有关.多元文化主义强调了"多元"的重要性,但却没有能有效地处理"多元"之间以及"多元"与传统"一元"之间的关系.协商民主作为一种治理方式,协商民主对于多元文化社会的建设具有特殊的优势.它不仅能够促进不同文化间的理解,增进政策的合法性,而且还能够促进多样性的生成与发展.     

警察自由裁量权及其正当性

警察自由裁量权是警察权主体依法享有的根据客观情况作出灵活抉择的权力。警察自由裁量权是警察权必不可少的组成部分,是警察权运行和目的实现的必要载体。警察自由裁量权包含丰富的内容,表现出多种样态。警察自由裁量权具有正当性。其正当性的获得除了与一般行政自由裁量权有诸多共性的逻辑和客观基础外,更是源自国家固有权力的警察权与形式法治之间博弈的结果,是警察权价值诉求及其实现法治意义上目的的内在要求,在根本上则来源于社会现实的需要。
