Juvenile Criminality And Semi-Criminality: Learning From Victorian Perceptions And Responses

This article focuses on media reportage of offensive juveniles, past and present, to elicit lessons that the twenty-first century can learn from the Victorian past in terms of diversionary responses. How to prevent vulnerable juveniles sliding into dangerous criminality is a continuing preoccupation: the issue explored in this article relates to the creation of the identity of the criminal juvenile. In utilising the concept of semi-criminality to label certain types of juvenile anti-social behaviour the Victorians avoided actual criminalisation of socially offensive but, in legal terms, minor behaviours. The reasons for and negative consequences of the abandonment of this concept by the modern age are explored, including the reconceptualisation of where responsibility for juvenile offending lies in the modern era.     

Miscarriage of Justice? Postcolonial Reflections on the ‘Trial’ of the Maharajah of Baroda, 1875

This article revisits the Baroda Incident 1875, providing a detailed examination of the Enquiry or ‹trial’ for the first time, and locating that examination in the wider socio-cultural context of the nineteenth century British Empire (especially the Raj) and the exporting of the ‹British’/English legal culture to the Empire. The implications of the establishing of British principles of justice, including the value placed upon Indian-generated evidence and testimony by the courts, are explored, in order to establish the Baroda Incident as a significant miscarriage of justice. Using historical methodologies as well as postcolonial insights, it demonstrates that the concepts of justice on which the British prided themselves were intrinsincally racialised as well as gendered, with profound modern resonances.

Competitive Liberalization,Competitive Imperialism,and Intellectual Property

Aggressive pursuit of free trade agreements (FTAs) and customs unions (CUs) by major and minor trading powers alike challenges the conventional wisdom in favor of such pursuit – competitive liberalization. An equally plausible explanation for an active bilateral and regional trade agreement policy, one which effectively de-emphasizes multilateralism, may be competitive imperialism. The protection and enforcement of intellectual property rights is one area in which new provisions, going beyond multilateral rules, are being negotiated and written into FTAs and CUs. Such provisions may yield insights into which characterization of bilateralism and regionalism – competitive liberalization or competitive imperialism – is more apt.

建国后17年文艺工作者的“组织化”及其评价

建国后，党对艺工作的思想、政治领导遂与组织领导结为一体，组织领导成了思想与政治领导的物质载体或曰制度保障。由之，思想与政治领导也就不自觉地转化成了行政领导关系。尽管这一领导方法在当时极有效率，但是，却在相当程度上违背了艺工作的“双百”方针。     

冠心病猝死心肌肌动蛋白缺失的免疫组织化学定量研究

应用免疫组织化学LSAB法和图像处理系统，对德国慕尼黑大学法医学研究所1994年尸检冠心病猝死和对照组病例（各15例）的心肌肌动蛋白缺失情况进行定量研究。发现冠心病猝死病例心肌纤维内有明显的肌动蛋白缺失，是大小不一，多发、散在分布；对照组无或仅局限性小灶状缺失。将检测结果定量分析比较，其差异非常显著，说明重度冠状动脉粥样硬化患者是否冠心病猝死，其心肌肌动蛋白缺失的范围和程度有明显差异，冠心病猝死和对照组病例心肌肌动蛋白缺失的差异具有诊断意义，而形态定量分析能较客观准确地反映心肌纤维内肌动蛋白缺失量的变化。
