Building institutional rules and procedures: Village election in China

Chinese elections for village leaders have been conducted since 1988, but processes by which elections have been conducted leave room for improvement. This study shows that despite progress made in Chinese village election laws, there exists considerable variation in rules and procedures stemming from vagueness in the laws and in various implementation methods. These issues are addressed and ways are proposed to improve village elections. In particular, an argument is made in favor of standardization and synchronization of village election rules and procedures.

新马克思主义经济学对新自由主义和经济全球化的批判

Beyond the Real and the Paper Deal: The Quest for Contextual Coherence in Contractual Interpretation

Contract lawyers are often divided between two schools of thought: formalism and contextualism. In the realm of contractual interpretation, this division illuminates various debates surrounding the modern contextual approach. Ultimately, however, the divide between the ‘real and the paper deal’ does not fully reflect the relevant fault lines. The real contest is between rival interpretations attempting to make the most coherent sense of the available text and context surrounding the document. In characterising the true nature of the exercise, I draw upon theories of coherence to articulate a framework of ‘contextual coherence’ that involves concepts of competing narratives, the rational motivations of the parties, and the need for a holistic assessment of the best hypothesis, in accordance with the English courts’ ‘iterative approach’ to interpretation. I demonstrate that this framework enables us to explain and evaluate recent cases such as the UK Supreme Court decision of Arnold v Britton.

刑事诉权初探

现代诉权是宪法性权利,刑事诉权也不例外。刑事诉权的概念不能简单借鉴其他诉权的概念,它应等同于自诉权与公诉权之和,是指刑事纠纷的当事人因权益受侵害,依法请求国家专门机关通过诉讼方式依正当程序解决该刑事纠纷和附带民事诉讼纠纷,并最终由裁判机关依法做出裁决的宪法性基本权利。从最终意义上讲,刑事纠纷的最终解决机关应当是法院,但在审前程序中,又不应当仅仅限于法院。刑事诉权具有主体多样性、内部关系复杂性、阶段性、其他诉权的后盾与保障等特征。对于当事人诉权主体而言,刑事诉权是基本人权在刑事诉讼中的具体化。当事人适格及诉的利益是其必备要素。     

论通谋虚伪结婚的法律效力

俗称的假结婚、虚假结婚在法律概念上宜认定为是通谋的虚伪结婚,它是指男女双方缔结婚姻时约定不建立婚姻共同生活的情形,特点是意思与表示不一致,属于意思表示存在瑕疵的情形。对其法律效力,各国大致存在着无效与可撤销两种立法例,是否援用民法关于通谋虚伪行为的一般规定也存在不同。此外,有的国家法律还允许虚假结婚行为的效力在法定情形下从无效、可撤销转为有效。对通谋的虚伪结婚,不能简单地援用民法总则的一般规则一律将其效力归为无效,而应当在原则上将其规定为可撤销,特殊情况下为有效。法律不能完全漠视已存在的婚姻事实和已经形成的家庭关系,在已经存在夫妻共同生活或者双方生育有子女的情形下,法律应当认可通谋的虚伪结婚有效,不允许撤销或无效。至于第三人利益的保护问题,笔者主张原则上采用表示主义,以意思主义作为补充。此外,对于通谋虚伪结婚在其他法域的效力,也需要注意保持不同法域之间在逻辑上的一致。
