The collation of forensic DNA case data into a multi-dimensional intelligence database

The primary aim of any DNA Database is to link individuals to unsolved offenses and unsolved offenses to each other via DNA profiling. This aim has been successfully realised during the operation of the New Zealand (NZ) DNA Databank over the past five years. The DNA Intelligence Project (DIP), a collaborative project involving NZ forensic and law enforcement agencies, interrogated the forensic case data held on the NZ DNA databank and collated it into a functional intelligence database. This database has been used to identify significant trends which direct Police and forensic personnel towards the most appropriate use of DNA technology. Intelligence is being provided in areas such as the level of usage of DNA techniques in criminal investigation, the relative success of crime scene samples and the geographical distribution of crimes. The DIP has broadened the dimensions of the information offered through the NZ DNA Databank and has furthered the understanding and investigative capability of both Police and forensic scientists. The outcomes of this research fit soundly with the current policies of 'intelligence led policing', which are being adopted by Police jurisdictions locally and overseas.     

The changes in the migration patterns in the post-Soviet states: the first decade

Following a short-term burst of migration activity after the dissolution of the USSR, the current situation is marked by the unusually low population territorial mobility, defined by both the political and, increasingly, the socioeconomic factors. While this trend indicates some degree of minority accommodation, it also demonstrates the depth of economic crisis and increasing socioeconomic differentiation. Visible also is the disproportionate influence exercised by Russia on the formation of migration flows in the region. Remaining the major recipient of migrants, Russia increasingly plays a role of supplier of labor migrants to the West, and acts as a “bridge” for those attempting to reach Western Europe. Meanwhile, Russia still lacks an effective legislative base, institutional mechanisms, and political will for dealing with the new migration flows.

宗教文化与社会稳定

宗教文化对社会稳定具有其独特的功能与作用。宗教文化在社会稳定中的功能主要表现为世界观功能、补偿功能、调节功能与整合功能四种。宗教文化通过宗教信仰与宗教道德的感召力与威慑作用促进社会秩序的稳定,同时宗教文化又因其自身的禁欲主义、排他性、单向度权利义务特征、以及欺骗性而成为动摇社会稳定的一大渊薮。

扩大党的群众基础三论

具有广泛的群众基础是保证共产党执政地位的必要条件。不断扩大党的群众基础是深刻总结党80多年来领导革命、建设和改革的历史经验作出的正确决策。扩大党的群众基础不会改变党的工人阶级先锋队性质。而准确理解和在实际工作中正确把握扩大党的群众基础,必须科学认识新的社会阶层中的广大人员也是中国特色社会主义事业的建设者;必须准确把握判断人们政治上先进与落后的标准;必须积极和稳妥地吸收新的社会阶层中的优秀分子入党。
