Anti-Japanese Popular Nationalism and China’s Approach Towards Japan amid Sino-Japanese Political Tension, 2001–2006

This paper explores the relationship between anti-Japanese popular nationalism and China’s approach towards Japan amid Sino-Japanese political tension from 2001 to mid-2006. Among various factors that may affect the relationship, this research focuses on the interaction between the government and the public expressions of anti-Japanese nationalism in China. Throughout most of this period, Sino-Japanese political relations were seriously strained by historical, territorial and other controversial issues, which stirred up anti-Japanese sentiment in China. However, it was only between 2003 and the spring of 2005 that mass anti-Japanese protests were allowed, or at least tolerated, by the Chinese authorities and played a role in Beijing’s handling of Japan-related controversies. The paper examines China’s domestic political situation during the leadership transition from the third to fourth generation of leaders, which it claims drove the Chinese government’s lenient response to popular anti-Japanese protests and enhanced the prospects for popular nationalism to affect the government’s approach towards Japan.     

少年刑事审判组织研究

少年刑事审判组织是在少年审判机构的基础上对少年刑事案件审判主体的进一步具体化和微观化。国际社会少年刑事审判组织呈现出四个比较明显的共同特点，即设置专门化、构成形式多样化、组成人员多样化和专业化。与国际社会发达的少年审判组织制度相比，我国未成年人刑事审判组织在专门化程度、构成形式、独任庭适用案件范围、合议庭人员构成及知识条件等方面均需进一步改进与完善。     

Administrative decentralisation and changing state-society relations in china

This study seeks to explain the evolution of the state and state policies under China's decentralised system by taking into consideration the political input from society and the dynamics of state-society interaction. It argues that the emergence of unorganised collective action creates an unique channel of political inputs from the society, while the diffusion of the power centre and the flattening of bureaucratic hierarchies make local leaders much more sensitive and responsive to political demands from the local populace. These two conditions together provide the basis for the state-society interaction in the reform era, leading to the collapse of the state's institutional levers of coercion (such as the commune and the brigade in rural areas and to some extent the unit or “danwei” in urban areas), resulting in new state-society relations.     

试论刑事简易程序中的被告人权利保障——基于被告人自愿性视角

刑事简易程序正当性的法理基础是被告人对程序适用的自愿性，为此，简易程序中的一些诉讼权利对保障被告人的自愿选择十分关键。我国新刑诉法中虽然规定了刑事简易程序，但侧重点在于人民法院和人民检察院的权力，对被告人的权利保障力度不够，需要加以完善。

论中国台湾与非洲国家"关系"中的"务实外交"

自20世纪90年代起,以"台独"分子为首的"台湾当局"不仅在本岛内肆意搞"去中国化"活动,在国际上也背弃一个中国原则,大搞所谓的"务实外交",制造"实质台独"的国际影响,这给我国统一大业的完成造成暂时的困难.基于此,我们应从以下方面着手,遏制"台独"势力的蔓延:加强对非洲国家的外交关系;在国际舞台上,利用国际法和国际关系准则制衡台湾的"务实外交";积极支持我国台湾同胞在非洲国家进行正常的商业活动,形成广泛的社会基础;提高中国的整体综合国力;处理好中国同美国等西方大国的关系.     

地方人大常委会行使否决权事例研究

依我国的惯例，政府提交的报告或议案一般总能预期在人大常委会顺利通过．但近年来已有多起地方人大常委会否决地方政府报告或议案的事例发生。通过行使否决权，地方人大常委会对抑制政府滥用权力或不作为的情况确实起到了一定的问责作用。但相关否决事例亦透视出地方人大常委会在行使否决权过程中存在运行机制的立法缺位现象。     

关于1938年中国共产党政治设计的探讨

1938年，中国共产党作为仅次于国民党的第二大党，在抗日战争的关键时刻，以共同的政治目标为依归，以全方位的政治方案为基轴，以多党合作的政治构想为途径，以建立人民民主社会的政治蓝图为核心指向，对国家社会发展进行了理性的筹划和安排。这些政治设计既对抗日战争的政治局面起着举足轻重的作用，在一定程度上也奠定了未来中国政治走向的基础。     

新《刑诉法》视角下的律师—委托人特免权思考

律师—委托人特免权作为辩护人的一项重要权利,为世界主要法治国家立法所承认.而律师—委托人特免权的理论来源于社会价值的选择和无罪推定及禁止强迫自证其罪原则,并在此基础上与律师保密义务有了明显的区别,不能混为一谈.但是新刑诉法也存在不足之处,表现为赋予特免权的内容过窄和免证特权的例外情况适用不清楚,需要考虑法律的实际运行做出进一步的解释.     

China's Rise through World Public Opinion: Editorial Introduction

Measuring the perception and attitudes of the world's public toward China has gained new momentum in recent years. In 2009, Shanghai Jiao Tong University's Institute of Arts and Humanities for the first time inaugurated a China-based National Image Survey Project, including a US survey (2010) and 12 Asian countries and regions (2011–2012). Authors in this special issue engage in interpretations and analysis of the data, and one of the most significant lessons is that public opinion, attitudes and perceptions of China's rise are the outcome of dynamic interactions and an assemblage of factors, a synergy of material interests, ideational and emotional reactions, and values, ideologies and principles, unraveling themselves against a highly volatile, precarious and contentious geopolitical backdrop, in which the interests of nation-states and individuals have become intertwined and inseparable.
