当前东北亚安全困局及其“病灶”探析

2016年以来,因朝鲜第四次核试验及美韩宣布在韩国部署"萨德"反导系统,东北亚固有的安全困境更加突出,并引起相关国家及国际社会的进一步密切关注。就当前而论,东北亚安全困境具体表现为朝鲜在进行第四次核试验后,其核武器开发继续"跃马扬鞭";美韩以朝核威胁为由加强驻韩美军实力,包括不顾中俄强烈反对,决意在韩部署"萨德"反导系统;日本在进一步倚美的同时,趁势拉拢韩国,强化对华敌视政策,致使中日关系频现紧张;美国一方面以应对朝核威胁为由而加强其在东北亚的军事力量和"前沿部署",另一方面又极力拉紧美日韩同盟,其在东北亚遏制中俄的态势更趋明朗。东北亚安全局势持续紧张的深层次原因:一是由于东北亚国家间存在复杂的领土领海及历史纠葛,二是朝鲜半岛南北长期对立,三是日本在历史认知及其与东北亚邻国领土领海分歧等问题上长期采取顽固立场,四是美国搞"亚太再平衡",利用东北亚国家间的固有矛盾从中渔利,企图通过对华进行"局部遏制"而长期维持其在东北亚的同盟体系及霸权。未来东北亚安全困境是继续加深、激化还是逐步淡化,取决于上述深层次原因的演变方向。     

“性贿赂”入刑问题思考

"性贿赂"问题的讨论存在一些误区,其社会危害被人为放大。"性贿赂"可以在现有法律框架内解决,入刑是刑法依赖的体现,会产生认定、查证和量刑上的一系列理论和实践难题,不利于贿赂犯罪体系的协调,必要性和可行性不大。     

中东问题的历史与现状

中东是当今世界最为突出的热点地区。文章从历史、民族、宗教以及外来侵略等多个层面分析中东问题的复杂性。指出中东情况错综复杂、矛盾冲突众多、战乱持续不断、形势反复多变。文章着重阐述了巴以矛盾的由来和现状,指出美国在巴勒斯坦和伊拉克问题上推行自相矛盾的政策,使它更深地陷入中东旋涡之中。     

官赌洗钱研究——贪污、贿赂犯罪新析

官赌洗钱是指国家工作人员通过赌场或赌博活动,将不法财物在形式上合理化的行为。官赌洗钱的形成需要三个条件:赌场、赌徒(干部)和赌资(公款和贿款等),经过三个阶段:放置阶段、离析阶段和整合阶段。因此,对官赌洗钱的查处与预防也应从以上几个方面入手。     

关于对“期待可能性”几个问题的思考

“期待可能性”理论基于其普遍的合理性,业已成为大陆法系解决刑事责任问题的重要学说之一。该理论有其独特的基本概念与发展演变过程。其判断标准应以行为当时的具体情况、行为人是否有实施适法行为的可能为标准。其适用范围除了过失犯外,对故意犯应采取必要限制立场。虽然我国刑法一些条款体现了该理论思想,但还存在缺陷。从刑法的谦仰性和维护法制的严肃性相统一的观点出发,应进一步完善我国刑事政策、法律。

Taking cues on multidimensional issues: the case of attitudes toward immigration

What determines popular attitudes toward immigration? Recent work emphasises the importance of education rather than economic or labour market factors. Missing from this work, however, is a consideration of elite positions. This study extends education-based accounts in two key ways: by acknowledging the multidimensional nature of the immigration issue and by incorporating cues from party elites. Cues from trusted elites inform popular attitudes on immigration. But rather than serving as a heuristic for the less sophisticated, elite cues on immigration are disproportionately employed by those more educated individuals who rely on elite positions to form opinions on multidimensional issues, like immigration, on which they are cross-pressured. Theoretical expectations are supported by evidence from cross-national analyses of party positions and public opinion and from a longitudinal examination of mass and party positions in Denmark. The results call attention to the importance of dimensionality in the formation of issue opinions.     

Setting the Agenda or Responding to Voters? Political Parties,Voters and Issue Attention

Why do political parties prioritise some policy issues over others? While the issue ownership theory suggests that parties emphasise policy issues on which they have an advantage in order to increase the salience of these issues among voters, the riding the wave theory argues instead that parties respond to voters by highlighting policy issues that are salient in the minds of citizens. This study sheds new light on the selective issue emphasis of political parties by analysing issue attention throughout the entire electoral cycle. On the basis of a quantitative text analysis of more than 40,000 press releases published by German parties from 2000 until 2010, this article provides empirical support for the riding the wave theory. It shows that political parties take their cues from voters by responding to the issue priorities of their electorate. The results have important implications for political representation and the role that parties play in democracies.     

The Influence of New Technologies on the Visual Attention of CSIs Performing a Crime Scene Investigation

Currently, a series of promising new tools are under development that will enable crime scene investigators (CSIs) to analyze traces in situ during the crime scene investigation or enable them to detect blood and provide information on the age of blood. An experiment is conducted with thirty CSIs investigating a violent robbery at a mock crime scene to study the influence of such technologies on the perception and interpretation of traces during the first phase of the investigation. Results show that in their search for traces, CSIs are not directed by the availability of technologies, which is a reassuring finding. Qualitative findings suggest that CSIs are generally more focused on analyzing perpetrator traces than on reconstructing the event. A focus on perpetrator traces might become a risk when other crime‐related traces are overlooked, and when analyzed traces are in fact not crime‐related and in consequence lead to the identification of innocent suspects.
