Income, Occupation, and Preferences for Redistribution in the Developing World

Much of the theoretical work on preferences for redistribution begins with the influential Melzer–Richard model, which makes predictions derived both from position in the income distribution and the overall level of inequality. Our evidence, however, points to limitations on such models of distributive politics. Drawing on World Values Survey evidence on preferences for redistribution in 41 developing countries, we find that the preferences of low-income groups vary significantly depending on occupation and place of residence, union members do not hold progressive views, and inequality has limited effects on demands for redistribution and may even dampen them.

无独立请求权第三人的诉讼地位

无独立请求权第三人是诉讼当事人。我国民事诉讼法关于无独立请求权第三人的立法规定存在着内在冲突,在理论和实务上产生了诸多令人困惑的问题,立法应明确无独立请求权第三人的诉讼当事人地位。当事人申请参加是无独立请求权第三人参加诉讼的适当方式,法院依职权追加和通知无独立请求权第三人参加诉讼,是超越司法被动性原则的体现,立法上应取消这一规定。     

Comamonas testosteroni meningitis in a homeless man

We report a case of meningitis caused by Comamonas testosteroni in a 54-year-old, alcoholic, homeless man. He, as a pedestrian, was struck by a car and suffered multiple fractures of the facial bones including the left frontal sinus. Over the course of 2-week hospitalization, he was clinically diagnosed with multiple cerebral and cerebellar infarcts resulting in altered mental status. He was pronounced dead 15 days after the injury. At the time of autopsy, diffuse purulent meningitis was found on gross examination. A swab culture of the brain surface was positive for C. Testosteroni, a saprophytic organism commonly found in soil and water. This is the first reported case of fatal meningitis caused by this micro-organism.

The histopathological spectrum of myocardial inflammation in relation to circumstance of death: a retrospective cohort study in clinical and forensic autopsies

Interpreting a myocardial inflammation as causal, contributory or as of no significance at all in the cause of death can be challenging, especially in cases where other pathologic and/or medico-legal findings are also present. To further evaluate the significance of myocardial inflammation as a cause of death we performed a retrospective cohort study of forensic and clinical autopsy cases. We revised the spectrum of histological inflammatory parameters in the myocardium of 79 adult autopsy cases and related these to the reported cause of death. Myocardial slides were reviewed for the distribution and intensity of inflammatory cell infiltrations, the predominant inflammatory cell type, and the presence of inflammation-associated myocyte injury, fibrosis, edema and hemorrhage. Next, the cases were divided over three groups, based on the reported cause of death. Group 1 (n = 27) consisted of all individuals with an obvious unnatural cause of death. Group 2 (n = 29) included all individuals in which myocarditis was interpreted to be one out of more possible causes of death. Group 3 (n = 23) consisted of all individuals in which myocarditis was reported to be the only significant finding at autopsy, and no other cause of death was found. Systematic application of our histological parameters showed that only a diffuse increase of inflammatory cells could discriminate between an incidental presence of inflammation (Group 1) or a potentially significant one (Groups 2 and 3). No other histological parameter showed significant differences between the groups. Our results suggest that generally used histological parameters are often insufficient to differentiate an incidental myocarditis from a (potentially) significant one.     

试论证据矛盾及矛盾分析法

证据矛盾普遍存在。包括证据内的矛盾与证据间的矛盾、证据与事实的矛盾、证据与情理的矛盾。这些矛盾可以区分为根本性矛盾与非根本性矛盾、冲突性矛盾与差异性矛盾等。矛盾产生的原因包括事物的多样性、信息不对称以及主客观双重局限。出现矛盾或者过于一致没有矛盾都有助于我们发现疑点避免错案,而解决矛盾的过程就是证明的过程。应对矛盾,需要有效地排除、合理地解释、充分地证明以及适当地容忍。在有矛盾时确定事实,应注意所认定的事实不存在与确凿事实与情理的矛盾,不存在不能合理解释,无法排除与解决的根本性矛盾。或者虽然存在证据矛盾,但证据体系足以建立内心确信,排除合理怀疑。     

评“检警一体化”兼论我国的检警关系

“检警一体化”主张不符合各国检警关系的设置模式 ,不利于维系检警之间的合理“张力” ,将削弱国家刑事侦查能力 ,而且不具备实践可行性。但为适应刑事诉讼的改革发展 ,需协调检警关系 ,强化侦查监督。为此作者提出了调整检警关系的三项原则、两套方案和一系列具体措施     

如何评价企业资产质量

企业的资产是企业赖以生存和获取利润的物质基础,企业资产质量的好坏决定企业的生存状况和获取利润的难易程度,因此每一个企业的利益相关者都会非常关心该企业资产质量的好坏,那么如何分析和评价企业资产质量呢？笔者认为,由于资产的质量,是指资产的变现能力、被企业有效利用产生利润的能力、与其他资产组合实现增值的能力,因此,资产质量的好坏,应该通过资产的获利能力指标、营运能力指标以及资产结构分析、资产项目分析进行综合评价。
