城市社区公共事务分类治理模式的实践与创新——以杭州为例

我国城市社区治理自上世纪90年代起经历了三个主要的探索阶段,实践成效来看,并没有从根本上实现社区行政管理与社区自治管理、社区行政管理与社区公共服务的真正分离,因而各地仍在探索合理的替代性选择。杭州通过创建社区公共事务分类治理,政府、社区和社会组织合作共治,多种机制综合运用的治理模式,走出了一条具有杭州特色的社区建设之路。杭州社区建设的实践证明,根据社区公共事务的属性差异界定主体边界是社区治理的基本前提,"三位一体"的复合模式与"多中心"的外部网络是社区治理的组织保证,行政、准市场、志愿和自治等多种治理机制的有机结合是社区治理的内在动力。

Legal Pluralism in an American Community: Perspectives on a Civil Trial Court

This article explores the role of a local trial court in terms of the plurality of legal systems-both formal and informal-found in the community in which the court operates. The concept of legal pluralism in American society is examined, and a comparison is made between the study of plural normative systems and the study of disputes and dispute processing. Two examples of legal pluralism drawn from an empirical study of a mid western community are presented: the first exploring oral contractual agreements among farmers and the second examining formal and informal norms concerning divorce. The application of this form of analysis is found to reveal important distinctions between the manifest and latent functions that the trial court performs in its community setting.     

Gavels in the nursery: an Appellate Court shuts out parents and physicians from care decisions

China’s anti-graft campaign and international anti-corruption norms: Towards a “new international anti-corruption order”?

This article analyzes the growing impact of an increasingly powerful China on the evolution of norms governing the global fight against corruption. Combining insights into the diffusion of anti-corruption norms and China’s ‘two-way socialization’ into the international order with an analysis of the Chinese leadership’s internationalized anti-corruption campaign, it argues that China’s active involvement in the international fight against corruption is bound to challenge prevailing international ‘definitions’ and ‘solutions’ of corruption. Despite the considerable attention to supposed incompatibilities between ‘culturally insensitive’ Western anti-corruption efforts and conflicting Chinese cultural norms, the actual ‘China challenge’ to the international anti-corruption regime is much less a cultural than a political one. While China’s formal-legal anti-corruption system has been receptive to international socialization, China’s own contributions to international norm making are defined by the Party’s top-level leadership, which promotes a different set of anti-corruption norms. However, a coherent alternative ‘Chinese model’ of anti-corruption, akin to the globally propagated ‘China path’ for economic development and poverty reduction, is not yet in sight.
