Governing multi-level governance: comparing domain dynamics in German Land-local relationships and prisons

While the notion of governance has received considerable scholarly attention, much less is known about change, and its sources, across modes of governance within respective policy domains. This article explores these neglected issues in two policy domains characterized by multi-level governance characteristics: Land (state)-local relationships in the domain of building administration and relationships governing the prisons domain in Germany. It does so in three steps. First, the article explores governance and considers endogenous and exogenous sources of change. Second, it discusses the institutional arrangements in the two domains and analyses modes of governance and their change. Third, the article compares the different dynamics of change and links these findings to wider debates regarding change across and within modes of governance. The analysis of the two domains suggests that 'hunting around' effects (i.e. permanent instability) are less prominent than suggested by cultural theory, while external pressures for change are filtered by the preferences of the actors within the respective domains.     

关于行政绩效评价法的立法思考

行政绩效评价是检验公共行政是否合法、合理的一个主要手段。行政绩效评价应在有法可依的情况下进行。行政绩效评价法不同于其他法律,它所表现出的纲领性、监督性、效力范围有限性的特点,使其作用的发挥受到一定限制,但制定行政绩效评价法的必要性是不能否定的。行政绩效评价法的主要内容是明确评价的主体、评价基本制度与评价的基本准则。     

Justice on the road to change in the people's republic of China

Dengist reform programs, including mandated changes in the operation of Chinese industrial enterprises, depart radially from previous Maoist practices and ideologies. With these changes, issues of distributive justice have become extremely salient in China. We explore shifting norms regarding distributive justice in China, with a focus on the conceptions of, and implications for, practicing managers. After first reviewing the pertinent literature, we present some original data gathered from Chinese managers in 1986 and in 1989, comparing them to data gathered from managers in the United States.     

玉兰盛开的灿烂

生命能够演绎命运,命运便结出或甜或苦或酸或涩的果子。时代在变,演绎命运的场景也在变。一个人的成长史可以见证社会变革的历史。贾玉兰,一位身残志坚的布衣农妇是压抑在历史地表下的一条潜流,当这条潜流涌上地表时,中国的命运正发生着大的转机。于是,有人说她是与时俱进的“中国阿信”,她以“活出自己”的生存信念和丝丝缕缕的艰辛“做功”,收获了———

比较法视野中的征用补偿--兼论我国征用补偿制度的完善

宪法第20、22修正案所确立的征用补偿制度需要普通法律来具体化.我国普通法律中已经确立的征用补偿制度较溪混乱,如何完善我国现有的征用补偿制度,使之与宪法修正案的内容和精神符合,需要借鉴国外的相关经验.通过比较美、德、日在征用机制和补偿机制方面的不同制度,针对征用目的、征用侵害、征用主体、补偿的正当性、补偿原则、补偿标准提出了诸多建议.     

电子证据的定位与传闻证据规则的发展

关于电子证据的法律定位目前较代表性的观点有：“视听资料说”、“书证说”、“物证说”、“鉴定结论说”、“独立证据说”、“混合证据说”。电子证据的界定应以“视听资料说”为基点对其进行阶段性的定位。考察美国关于电子证据适用传闻证据规则的基本标准的确立过程,传闻证据规则在对电子证据的吸纳过程中逐步实现了完善,电子证据的独立性也得以凸现。我国应将电子证据相关规则的确立与传闻证据规则本身的完善作整体考虑。     

对总部经济几个基本理论问题的思考

我们对总部经济概念的认识有一个由浅入深的过程,也需要进行多层面的理解来不断深化认识;对总部经济形成的理论模型的理解,应包含对理论假设、企业的三种生产布局模式和总部经济形成的不同层面的分析。既有研究发现总部经济对于一个区域的发展至少有5种效应,这五种效应实际上体现了三大功能,最终体现为城市综合竞争力的提升。     

从赔偿与补偿的界限看我国《国家赔偿法》的修改方向

传统上对赔偿与补偿的界限的认识,都从违法性开始。但是,随着“结果违法说”的兴起和过失的客观化,同时,赔偿与补偿的理论基础的趋同,赔偿与补偿的界限正在消弭。这一现象应当引起我们对传统上研究国家赔偿的方法的反思。同时,也对我国的《国家赔偿法》的修改方向以及行政赔偿如何立法产生影响。在此情况下,有必要重构国家赔偿与行政补偿的要件。
