缅甸军政府缘何迁都

2005年11月7日,缅甸政府开始把政府机关从仰光搬迁到彬文那。据仰光的外交官和政府官员猜测,缅甸迁都的真正原因是防止可能发生的外部入侵。自美国停止对缅甸投资以来,缅甸军政府正遭受着1997年以来最为严厉的国际制裁。     

民生新闻的价值实践——浅谈安徽电视台《第一时间》得与失

民生新闻是当今媒体报道的一种主要形式,其新闻价值的特点主要表现在时新性、接近性、显赫性等方面。对其新闻价值的分析和实践运作的研究,有助于对民生新闻概念的理解。本文试通过对安徽电视台《第一时间》栏目的分析来说明这一问题。     

社会捐赠剩余的法律分析

随着社会捐赠活动的增加，其剩余款项的归属纠纷频繁发生。为了维护社会捐赠人的初衷得以实现，使社会捐赠活动得以有序、良好的发展，本文从现行的司法和法律的处理状况入手，对社会捐赠剩余归属进行法律分析，借鉴英国《慈善法》中的“力求近似原则”在这个问题上的处理方法，结合我国的现实状况对我国社会捐赠管理制度进行构建。     

FRIENDS WITH MY FUTURE SELF: LONGITUDINAL VIVIDNESS INTERVENTION REDUCES DELINQUENCY

In a field experiment, we use a novel method to test whether instilling a greater sense of vividness of the future self motivates people to act in a more future‐oriented way and reduces their delinquent involvement. We manipulate vividness of the future self by having participants, a sample of high‐school youth (N = 133), “befriend” an avatar representing their future self on a social network website. For 7 days, they reply to short messages from their future self designed to trigger thinking about that distant self. Using repeated‐measures analysis of variance (ANOVA), we find that participants who had been linked to their future self report less delinquent involvement, whereas controls did not. Furthermore, the results of a nonparametric bootstrapping procedure show that this effect is mediated by changes in vividness of the future self, such that increases in vividness lead to lower self‐reported delinquency. We conclude that vividness of the future self holds promise not only as a cognitive explanation for the failure to make informed cost–benefit trade‐offs but also for interventions aiming to reduce delinquency.     

Protection and conservation--TRIPs and CBD: a way forward

Legal context: There is a complex relationship and interplay between TRIPsand CBD, two multilateral agreements adopted to attain inherentlydistinctive objectives. Key points: The CBD/TRIPs issue has been discussed in the WTO since 1996in the Committee on Trade and Environment, and has been on theagenda of the TRIPs Council since 1999. At the WTO Doha MinisterialMeeting in 2001, a Trade Minister made reference to the issuein paragraphs 12 and 19, instructing the Council for TRIPs tolook into the relations between TRIPs and CBD. The discussionin the TRIPs Council has gone into considerable detail witha number of ideas and various proposals have been mooted todeal with the same. Practical significance: This paper attempts to discuss and analyse the areas of possibleconflict and reasons for such conflicts. It also seeks to gainan insight into the thought-process of the various stakeholders,then discusses alternative courses of action, and attempts tochart the way forward.     

从何以可能到现实路径——关于当前哲学对话问题的沉思

哲学对话的重要性,已经取得学界的共识。在当前的中国语境之下,如何加强不同哲学,尤其是中、西、马哲学之间的对话和交流?问题的厘清必须从中、西、马哲学的对话何以可能谈起,从何以能对话(前提根据)、为什么对话(目的意义)到以什么对话(话题内容)的分析进路,不仅是对话问题的展开逻辑,而且内在地蕴含着对如何来对话,即中、西、马哲学对话的现实路径这一问题的解答。     

实存与现存-当下及其问题

我们同意这样的观点,即,只有经过对人的存在的认识和理解,才能真正找到认识存在问题的途径。但这并不意味着哲学讨论人的存在问题必须先于关于一般存在的问题。也许正好相反。因为从原始意义说,人的存在首先是作为一般存在者存在,即使是人成为本质自我的存在,他仍然以一般存在者的这种先在的存在形式作为自在的根据。如果否认这一点,那么认识人的存在又与存在问题有何关系呢?似乎正是在这个意义上,萨特提出了著名的存在主义命题:存在先于本质。因此,我们准备沿着一般存在者存在的性质、人的存在、主体的存在及相关的若干理论问题等这样的思路展开我们的讨论。其实,这样做的一个最基本的理由就是,我们尚不能像伟大的思想家那样“思”:追问“存在”是什么。     

初论民间规范对法律方法的可能贡献

民间规范作为一种实际存在的“制度事实”,对法律方法有着什么样的意义?基于此种问题意识,对民间法可能对法律方法的贡献的研究,应该是有益的。由于司法活动中的法律方法多样,这里只对法律方法之于法律渊源、价值(利益)衡量、判例和判例法形成方式、法律论证的可能贡献做出了简要的描述。可以肯定,民间规范对其他法律方法也一样会有可能作用。对此,笔者将在后续研究中逐步探讨。
