公安机关刑事执法规范化建设研究

近年来,刑事执法规范化建设虽已取得一定成效,但仍存在实践不足等问题。要进一步加强刑事执法规范化建设,就必须在基本理论研究的基础上,对制约刑事执法规范化建设的现实因素进行剖析。同时,要充分认识到加强刑事执法规范化建设,是新时期公安机关刑事侦查工作的生命线,是刑事侦查部门提高自身履职能力的必然要求。只有真正创新执法理念,提升专业办案水平,严格责任监督程序,强化执法能力培训,才能不断提高刑事执法精细化水平,实现刑事执法规范化。     

警察侦破人体器官犯罪之困境及对策研究

近年来,人体器官犯罪在我国日显猖獗。《刑法修正案（八）》颁布之前,对此类行为仅以非法经营罪尴尬规制。对此,我国《刑法修正案（八）》新增罪名组织出卖人体器官罪。然而,该罪名虽已出台近乎一年,全国各地在司法实践中启用此罪名的判例却寥寥无几。这在某种程度上说明在立法和司法均已完备的基础上,公安机关对此类犯罪行为的行政执法发面存在一定不足,使该类行为不能被绳之以法。本文欲分析目前我国人体器官移植现状、人体器官犯罪情况、总结其作案特征,概括公安机关在侦破人体器官犯罪时面临的问题,从而提出有效的解决对策,以提高对此类犯罪行为的打击力度。     

Mapping Urban Revitalization: Using GIS Spatial Analysis to Evaluate a New Housing Policy

This longitudinal, multimethod study uses geographical information system (GIS) software to evaluate the community-wide impact of a neighborhood revitalization project. Unsystematic visual examination and analysis of GIS maps are offered as a complementary tool to quantitative analysis and one that is much more compelling, meaningful, and effective in presentation to community and nonscientific professional audiences. The centerpiece of the intervention was the development of a new, middle-class housing subdivision in an area that was declining physically and economically. This represents three major urban/housing policy directions: (1) the emphasis on home ownership for working-class families, (2) the deconcentration of poverty through development of mixed-income neighborhoods, and (3) the clean up and redevelopment of contaminated, former industrial brownfields. Resident survey responses, objective environmental assessment observations, and building permit data were collected, geocoded at the address level, and aggregated to the block level on 60 street blocks in the older neighborhoods surrounding the new housing in two waves: during site clearing and housing construction (Time 1: 1993–95) and three years post-completion (Time 2: 1998–99). Variables mapped include (a) Time 1–2 change in self-reported home repairs and improvements, (b) change in the assessed physical condition of yards and exteriors of 925 individual residential properties, (c) change in residents' home pride, and (d) a city archive of building permits at Time 2. Physical conditions improved overall in the neighborhood, but spatial analysis of the maps suggest that the spillover effects, if any, of the new housing were geographically limited and included unintended negative psychological consequences. Results argue for greater use of GIS and the street block level in community research and of psychological and behavioral variables in planning research and decisions.     

加快农村集体建设用地管理制度创新探析

伴随中国城镇化迅猛发展,大中城市周边集体建设用地已经成为城镇化的主要区域。全国各地的集体建设用地流转试验为新型城镇化背景下转变增长方式、完善土地管理机制提供了宝贵经验。该文在总结各地集体建设用地流转试验基础上,提出在大中城市周边区域率先建立统一的集体建设用地流转制度,促进城市周边区域经济社会统筹协调发展的目标,并就完善集体经济组织主体地位,发挥政府引导、协调、管理和监督职能,鼓励、扶持产业支撑,深化城镇社会保障和就业体制改革,加快公共服务均等化改革和城乡综合管理体制创新等问题提出具体建议。     

立体化社会治安防控体系运作模式探究

以县级为单元完善立体化社会治安防控体系建设是一项综合性的社会公共安全管理系统工程,这一体系运作模式的架构,应集打击、防范、管理、控制等治安管理诸层面,其体系运作既要作为政府工程和民生工程,又要有社会化的整体配套机制。重点要突出系统化整合、智能化升级、实战化应用、社会化建设,全面构建以“服务管理人本化、警务运作集约化、警务执法规范化、警务手段科技化、警务工作社会化、警队管理科学化”为主的治安防控体系运作模式。     

引进临床心理学构建实用的信访矛盾化解技术

在公安机关的信访工作中引入临床心理学技术,对化解由心理问题造成的信访疑难积案具有现实意义和理论基础。基层调研过程中发现的实际案例也证实它可以很大程度上提高信访工作的效率,从根源上化解矛盾。实用信访矛盾化解技术的形成不仅需要掌握心理学基本原理和相关心理咨询技术,还要把握好实践应用中的技巧及其时机。在实际工作中应注重临床心理学技术在信访工作不同阶段的应用,切实地将此项技术推广、运用到公安信访工作中,使公安信访工作更加合理和高效。     

Resilient subjects: uncertainty,warfare and liberalism

Abstract

While resilience has been recognized as a new strand in the government of security, little attention is paid its associated subjectivities and technologies of the self. One of the key sites for such development has been the military. A principal attribute of traditional military subjects has been fortitude, an assemblage of moral strength, will-power and courage deeply inscribed in the soul. In the new military, fortitude is now seen as of only conditional value to the latest configuration of the ‘liberal way of war’. Instead, resilience is centred as appropriate to ‘warriors’, and resonates with an advanced liberal political environment. Resilience appears as a set of cognitive skills that anyone can develop with correct training. Founded in cognitive behavioural therapy, resilience centres innovativeness, enterprise, responsibility and flexibility. It now takes its place as part of a complex of scientifically grounded techniques of the self necessary to optimize autonomous subjects in an age of high uncertainty.     

‘Flexicurity’ as a policy strategy: the implications for gender equality

Abstract

The ‘flexicurity’ strategy reached the top of the European Union's policy agenda in the mid-2000s. The strategy assumes an adult worker model family and aims to promote better, as well as more, jobs and to ensure that policies should further both flexibility in the labour market and security for workers. The article explores, first, the meaning of internal and external flexibility, and of employment-based security and the different implications for men and women. While the policy documents assume that flexicurity will increase gender equality, the mechanisms have not been specified. In fact, as the article shows, women are often more ‘flexible’ workers than men, particularly regarding their contractual arrangements and hours of employment. However, they tend not to be economically autonomous and, we argue, the supply-side policies advocated on the security side of the flexicurity matrix are insufficient to improve their position, which is strongly related to the gendered divisions of paid and unpaid work.     

Genealogies of European states: Foucauldian reflections

Abstract

The public lectures given by Foucault at the Collège de France that are only now being published demonstrate that, just before he turned his attention to the history of sexuality, Foucault's thorough historical research had laid out many of the elements needed for a genealogy of modern practices of state governance. This review essay pieces together elements provided in the lectures, and in a few already published writings, to prove that research on state powers and state knowledges can benefit a great deal from a close reading of the lectures.     

Collateral times

Abstract

Today’s financial system essentially relies on the pledge of collateral. A closer look at this uniquely cross-disciplinary instrument not only reveals a remarkable absence in the modern disciplines but also a close relationship with money. This connection is brought into theoretical perspective by analysing the role of pledge in three historical configurations. In ancient Greece, symbola and horoi stones emerge as two distinct devices to secure contract that become entwined in seventeenth–eighteenth century pledge-theories of money as witness and object of exchange. Together these throw new light on the contemporary form of shadow money as a distinct marriage of security and safety.
