Learning in Peacebuilding – Mission Impossible?

ABSTRACT

A common recommendation in the peacebuilding literature is that missions must learn from experiences on the local ground. Yet, if often remains unclear who has the authority to propose and diffuse new or critical knowledge. The article argues that peacebuilding can be understood as a socio-professional field in which education and professional careers condition the legitimacy to author new or critical insights. Hence, peacebuilding privileges knowledge that has been produced and is diffused in OECD-country research and academic institutions and the business world, most notably in strategic management consulting. Inversely, local knowledge is disparaged and, hence, unlikely to be promoted.     

Problems of Coordination in Field Administration in Bangladesh: Does Informal Communication Matter?

The main thrust of the article is to analyze the state of problems of inter-organizational coordination in the upazila (second tier of local government) in Bangladesh. It also explains to what extent informal communication matters for inter-organizational coordination. Based on empirical data collected in 2009, findings of the study suggest that a number of factors have facilitated non-existence of inter-organizational coordination at the upazila. These factors include lack of division of activities, dualism in control over officers, lack of proper functioning of the committees, and dual authority in disbursement of funds and its impact on timely disbursement. Findings also suggest that in the absence of coordination among different departments, informal communication has been observed to be one of the prominent mechanisms of ensuring coordination. However, existence of factors like lack of willingness to be engaged in informal communication and lack of cooperation has hindered the process of building informal communication among different departments. Despite having some problems this research has concluded that informal communication has helped the process of coordination among different departments while they are carrying out their responsibilities.     

在犯罪构成整体视野下对犯罪客体的新认识

对于犯罪构成理论的整体性把握,应以犯罪构成具体要件的确定为切口,从犯罪构成的概念入手,在犯罪构成理 论的历史形成、体系的中外比较、现实的运用状况、指向的哲学反思四个方面对其进行整体性把握。在这一整体 视野下,可以探视到我国传统犯罪构成理论体系之一部分即犯罪客体理论之体系结构的繁冗、功能发挥的混淆和 作用产生的空置等诸多方面的缺陷、矛盾与不足,从而明确改造传统犯罪构成理论的方向之一即传统犯罪客体理 论。对于犯罪客体理论的改造,则从其定义入手,将其重新定义为法益,并置挪到犯罪概念下去研究,使其重归原 位;同时,将犯罪主体要件与犯罪主观要件相合并,从而将传统的犯罪构成四要件说改造成为二要件说,以进化完 善我国的犯罪构成理论。以法益作为犯罪客体的实质内容,则有消除体系混乱、统合刑法作用、指示理论方向、符 合时代精神等诸多"社会关系"说所不可比拟的优越处。     

行政场域及其权利实现

从行政法意义上审视,行政活动和行政作用空间恰好耦合为一个行政场域。在行政场域中,行政主体享有权力,行政相对人享有权利。行政相对人的权利实现过程十分复杂,其中,许多权利的实现过程实际上就是行政的过程。一方面,行政相对人的权利实现过程是权力与权利合作的过程;另一方面,行政相对人的权利实现过程又是权力与权利博弈的过程。     

Field validity of the HCR-20 in forensic medium security units in Flanders

Structured risk assessment has become a part of routine practice in forensic settings. However, little attention has been paid to the clinical applicability of existing tools. The present research focused on the performance of the Historical Clinical Risk Management-20 (HCR-20) – one of the most commonly used tools for structured professional judgment – in the daily practice of three medium security units in Flanders. Areas under the curve for the prediction of violent recidivism during (N?=?168) and after (N?=?105) medium security treatment were non-significant. In addition, analyses showed that the HCR-20 was mainly of interest in identifying low-risk individuals. Further research measuring different aspects of predictive validity in applied settings is recommended.     

警用领域无人机应用的现状分析和前景预测

什么是无人机?无人机究竟可以做什么,它有何价值?现代社会,无人机可以被看作是代替人类完成空中作业的平台,结合不同搭载平台,可以完成不同领域的应用要求。无人机的核心价值不在于无人机本身的运用,而是无人机+行业应用的结合。近年来,无人机在警用领域应用的范围越来越广阔、全面,因此研究无人机在警用领域怎么用以及如何用就显得至关重要。
