英国刑事法律援助质量控制体系及启示

英国几百年刑事法律援助的传统和巨额的政府财政支持,培育了很多先进的法律援助质量控制理念和方法,值得我们在刑事法律援助工作中加以学习和借鉴。本文认为,确立刑事及死刑辩护法律援助的优先地位,提高刑事法律援助律师办案的意愿和积极性,保证刑事及死刑辩护法律援助律师胜任办案的必要能力,建立刑事法律援助早期介入机制,细化工作程序和完善质量保证措施,建立系统化的质量保证体系,将刑事辩护法律援助办案费用支出纳入财政预算,等等,都是建立中国刑事法律援助质量控制体系需要参考借鉴的重要方面。

孝道的重建——论儒家“孝”观念的生活情感本源

“孝”乃儒家思想的核心观念之一。在孔孟那里，孝道的建构本是立足于作为本源的生活情感的。但经过轴心期大转型以后，孝道逐渐僵化为一种道德教条，而遗忘了生活情感这个大本本源。当下我们要重建孝道，绝不能仅仅将孝道理解为道德教条，而应该进一步追溯其本源，立足于儒家“孝”观念的生活情感本源来重建孝道。     

吸食注射毒品行为非犯罪化探析

2006年3月1日起施行的《中华人民共和国治安管理处罚》第七十二条第三款将吸食、注射毒品的行为以法律的形式确定为违法行为予以治安行政处罚。站在坚持吸食、注射毒品非犯罪化的立场,对该类行为从犯罪学的角度进行综合考察、借鉴恢复性司法理念,对吸食、注射毒品者在采取非刑罚处罚的基础上,如何施以人性关怀、力求为减少和控制吸食、注射毒品行为略陈管见。     

当前派出所工作存在的主要问题及其解决

派出所工作是全部公安工作的根基所在。要实现"警力配置最优、警力资源消耗最低、警务效益最大"的警务改革目标,必须正视和解决长期以来派出所工作中存在的"领导作风粗而不实、警力调配粗而不优、警务方式粗而落后"等主要问题。解决这些问题既要贯彻层级管理原则、明确工作重点,也要知人善用,合理用警,更要正确看待和协调处理好四项主要警务工作之间的关系;同时,要紧跟信息化发展步伐,实施信息化警务发展战略。     

Affirmative Action and Its Alternatives in Public Universities: What Do We Know?

University administrators have made difficult choices in response to the changing policy context for the use of affirmative action in admissions. This paper synthesizes the empirical literature on affirmative action and evaluates the efficacy of alternative strategies, including top-percent programs, class-based affirmative action, and targeted recruiting. The analyses offer several findings of interest to officials who direct such programs: (1) Affirmative action preferences given by top-tier universities have been large; (2) affirmative action leads minorities to enroll in higher-quality institutions; and (3) affirmative action has mostly positive effects on minority students later in life. The evidence shows a decline in minorities' relative share of enrollment at flagship public universities after affirmative action was eliminated in several states, and the alternative strategies used by these universities have not offset these declines.

Parental discord vs family structure: effects of divorce on the self-esteem of daughters

This study investigated the effects of family structure (parents together or not) and parental discord (ratings of the happiness of the marriage of biological parents) on the self-esteem of 199 female undergraduates. Family structure and happiness ratings were substantially related, with those separated rated as less happy. Self-esteem was significantly related to parental happiness, even with family structure controlled, but not to family structure with parental happiness controlled. With the sample divided into three groups (happy-together, unhappy-together, and separated) ANOVA showed a significant effect for group, with the unhappy-together group showing significantly lower self-esteem than the happy-together group, and the separated group intermediate. Parental discord thus appears to lower the selfesteem of daughters, whereas separation of parents does not. These findings support Heatherington's idea that children may be better off in a stable family where parents are divorced than in an intact family with much parental discord.Thanks are expressed to Susan Stevenson Cowles for her contributions to all stages of the study, and to Judith Fidati, Anita Katz, and Susanne Long for their assistance in the scoring and statistical analyses. The author is also grateful to Andrew Cherlin, Edmund Henderson, and Ruth C. Wylie for their helpful suggestions.Barbara H. Long is Professor Emeritus at Goucher College, where she has taught for 20 years. She is a social psychologist, having received her Ph.D. from the University of Delaware and has, at present, research interests in the attitudes of young women towards marriage and career.
