解读电子政务与电子政府

电子政务与电子政府是目前电子政务研究领域的两个主要概念。电子政务的重点在于“政务”,即政务的电子化;电子政府的重点则在于“政府”的电子化,意味着政府组织、结构相对于传统政府体制的变革,甚至触及整个政治体系的革新。把握两个概念及其关系的关键在于两者的范围或发展的阶段性。就我国当前而言,推广电子政务实务和使用电子政务概念更具有现实意义。     

对刑法上客体的再认识

从哲学理论上讲,客体就是行为作用、行为指向的对象,而作为法律关系内容的社会关系不过是为法律所刻意确认并加以调整,由一定的法律行为所引起的产物,这种社会关系本身不可能被行为所直接指向而成为行为客体。在传统的刑法理论中,刑法上的客体被仅仅局限为犯罪的客体,而在几乎所有现行刑法学教科书中,均把犯罪客体说成是犯罪行为侵犯的社会关系,这一违反哲学原理和法学原理的犯罪客体概念,本身包含着逻辑错误和定性错误。犯罪客体就是被犯罪行为直接侵害指向的人或物。

徇私枉法罪原案两个问题的探讨

对徇私枉法罪原案的“有罪”理解及其管辖权的归属问题不仅在理论界存在较大争议,而且在司法实践中认定不一,直接影响了本罪的司法适用。本文通过辨析认为,“有罪”应理解为有证据证明的犯罪,而非法定之罪;对于原案的管辖权应视具体情况分别由相应的公安机关、检察机关和审判机关来行使。

Highlights from a low-level area: infant mortality and social structure in eight East Frisian parishes, 1740–1839

Considerable variations in infant mortality rates have occurred within the low-lying region of northern Germany's East Frisia. Individual parishes can be assigned to three specific groups by registered mortality levels for the period 1740–1839. Differences also existed between parishes containing Geest (heathland), bogs, and marshland reflecting specific geographical and environment factors, as well as the structure of the local economy. In both Geest and bog parishes, the level of infant mortality and its trend over time were not homogeneous. In the two marshy river parishes, only environmental factors were significant; both registered the lowest rates of infant mortality. They had fertile soil, extensive grazing land, an exceptionally high number of large agricultural holdings, and households that were above average in size. By contrast, the highest rates of infant mortality were found in one bog and two Geest parishes, but these communities remained heterogeneous in terms of geographical size and population growth and density.

COMMUNITY ACCOUNTABILITY,MINORITY THREAT,AND POLICE BRUTALITY: AN EXAMINATION OF CIVIL RIGHTS CRIMINAL COMPLAINTS*

A growing body of evidence shows that minorities are disproportionately the targets of police brutality, but important theoretical questions about the causes of that inequity remain unanswered. One promising line of research involves structural‐level analyses of the incidence of police brutality complaints; however, existing studies do not incorporate variables from alternative theoretical explanations. Drawing on the community accountability hypothesis and the threat hypothesis, we tested the predictions of two prominent structural‐level explanations of police brutality in a study of civil rights criminal complaints. The study included cities of 150,000+ population (n = 114). The findings reveal that two community accountability variables—ratio percent Hispanic citizens to percent Hispanic police officers and the presence of citizen review—were related positively to police brutality complaints, partially supporting that perspective. Two threat hypothesis measures of threatening people—percent black and percent Hispanic (in the Southwest)—were related positively to complaints, as predicted. The relative degree of support for the two hypotheses is assessed.
