拼租房屋的法律问题研究

目前,我国对于拼租房屋的法律规制仍处于空白阶段,这使得拼租房屋在实践当中产生了一系列纠纷并且无法可依、无章可循.拼租房屋与群租房屋概念的混淆也使得法律对于拼租房屋的规制产生了一定障碍.在明确拼租房屋中的法律关系后,对于拼租房屋的人均居住面积进行合理地规定是解决拼租房屋产生的纠纷之理性选择.     

安全港条款在有限合伙基金中的嬗变与重构——基于有限贵任与管理权之矛盾的视角

有限合伙基金中的安全港条款作为有限责任保护的特殊制度本应成为有限合伙人恪守的底线。但是,由于我国现阶段有限合伙基金的发展的独特个性,安全港条款并未很好的在我国的实践中开花结果。在这一情况下,对于安全港条款从拓宽适用范围、建立刺破合伙人面纱制度以及建立相应的执业保险等角度出发进行重新构建成为必要。有限合秋人对于管理权的干涉极易导致有限责任之否认,安全港条款的重构,无疑会大大降低有限合伙人管理基金的风险。也有利于基金的稳定运行。     

Public–Private Partnerships in International Agricultural Research: An Analysis of Constraints

Public–private partnerships are a potentially important means of conducting pro-poor agricultural research in many developing countries. Yet within the international agricultural research sector, there are few examples of successful collaboration that have contributed to food security, poverty reduction or agricultural development. This study hypothesizes that partnerships between public research agencies and private, multinational firms are constrained by fundamentally different incentive structures; prohibitive costs, both direct and indirect; mutually negative perceptions between the sectors; and high levels of competition and risk associated with valuable assets and resources. Based on a survey of key stakeholders and a review of the literature, findings suggest that the primary impediments to partnership are perceptions, competition and risk, while issues of costs and conflicting incentives are secondary. These findings suggest that investment in innovative organizational mechanisms and supportive public policies could facilitate more, and more successful, public–private partnerships in pro-poor agricultural research.     

民事合伙与商事合伙的相关问题

民事合伙与商事合伙在属性、组织和经营方式等方面既有联系又有区别,但我国法律并未区分民事合伙与商事合伙。应当借鉴国外的相关立法规定,通过设立“不容否认合伙”制度和“揭开有限合伙面纱”制度,进一步完善我国合伙制度的法律规定。     

关于合伙协议无效裁判思维的反思

《合同法》第58条设计的合同无效返还财产的处理规则,适用于具有对价性的合同;而合伙协议属于具有共同经营同一事业性质的合同,合伙人之间的权利义务并不具有对应性。因此,合伙协议无效时,一般合同无效的溯及效力与财产返还效力并不当然适用于它,其具有复杂的法律状态。应当区分合伙事业是否开展以及强调合伙本身的组织性,返还主体的特殊性来处理此类纠纷。     

YES PM: Years of Experience in Strategies for Peace Making

From the signing of the Oslo Peace Accords in September 2000 to the eruption of Al Aqsa intifada in September 2000, the international community allocated an estimated $20–25 million for people-to-people (P2P) projects. Since September 2000, almost all P2P projects came to a halt. Many people have asked why this had to happen? Why did the P2P projects cease to work when they were needed the most? Why did the P2P projects fail to produce the desired goals? How could P2P projects have greater impact? Why are some activities continuing, while others have ceased? This article will attempt to deal with these questions. It is based on a research project that involved Israeli and Palestinian non-governmental organizations (NGOs) and Civil Society institutions; Israeli, Palestinian, and international academics; and other expert conflict resolution and conflict prevention practitioners. A joint team of Israeli and Palestinian researchers was appointed to conduct a comprehensive assessment of the P2P process; two workshops were held to conduct subjective analyses of the P2P process from its start until today. An interactive web site was also produced, and some 40 interviews were conducted with initiators and implementers of P2P projects. We present here the findings of this study.     

西方工会振兴的战略选择

工会振兴是西方国家工会为应对工会目前所处的困境而提出的新战略,目的是重振日渐衰落的工会。振兴的战略选择主要包括工会内部重组、加强工会培训、与雇主和政府结成社会伙伴关系、改革工会组织模式、与社会其它团体结成联盟等。     

合伙企业有限责任否认与非自愿性债权人保护

20世纪后半期以来,有限责任发展的路径是向合伙企业的迅猛扩张,但在有限责任全面松绑的情况下,如何运用有限责任否认法理来保护债权人特别是非自愿性债权人却是个新问题。合伙企业有限责任否认分有限责任滥用与未滥用两种情况,但应注意:在有限责任未滥用的情况下,非自愿性债权人纯粹承受有限责任的负面价值极不公平,应在一定条件下否认有限责任;在有限责任滥用的情况下,适用法人人格否认的典型情形对合伙企业也不能简单适用,合伙企业的有限责任否认有自己的特殊之处。
