Towards a Theory of Institutionalized Judicial Exceptionalism

What happens when the exception becomes the norm, what happens when the law becomes a form for that which cannot have a legal form, that is, the political? The focus of this article is a form of power politics that is institutionalised and set up to work side by side with the existing legal system as a sort of normalized, co‐ordinated court procedure, initiated with the aim of subjecting specific groups (terrorists, criminals) to extended regulatory control and enforcement. These strategic bureaucratic mechanisms of exclusion appear as security enforced measures, which side by side with the existing ‘normal’ legal system govern a specific judicial‐political area. The normalised (or rooted, if one wishes) incorporation of extra‐judicial authority within the legal system will in the article be refered to as institutionalised judicial exceptionalism. The purpose of the article is to theorise and conceptualise the in many ways murky or indistinct phenomenon of institutionalised judicial exceptionalism.This task includes suggesting a model capable of assimilating within its theory the displacement in the relationship between the state, the law and the citizen that stems from the fact that the ever more securitized discourses on terrorism and crime increasingly take priority over the ordinarily non‐derogable principle of equality before the law.     

Ideas and experts: Indonesian approaches to economic and security cooperation in the Asia‐Pacific region

Indonesia has been a key player in various initiatives to promote both economic and security cooperation in the Asia‐Pacific region in recent years. This essay explores the role of policy experts in facilitating these moves. The central argument is that in both policy spheres it is indeed possible to identify networks of policy experts who have been directly and indirectly associated with efforts to strengthen regional cooperation. Although the dearth of primary research into policy‐making processes in Indonesia makes it difficult to weigh the inputs of experts against other likely causal factors, there are reasonable grounds for believing that their contribution has been an important one.     

知识经济与反垄断法的发展趋势

现行的各国反垄断法的基础制度是工业经济时代的反映 ,其内容已不完全适应今天知识经济发展的需要。综观各国反垄断法的制度基础 ,大多采用或倾向采用结构主义反垄断法 ,本文从知识经济的特点出发 ,论述在知识经济时代因企业发展和竞争方式不同于工业经济时代的企业发展和竞争方式 ,故知识经济时代反垄断法不应再规范企业的市场份额 ,而应以规范由市场份额导致的市场支配力的滥用为主要内容 ,也即在知识经济时代应采用行为主义的反垄断法     

Centralisation versus regionalisation: Designing the Sixth National Mental Health Plan

In response to the recent Productivity Commission report into mental health, the previous Federal Government announced its intention to produce a new national agreement that lays the platform for Australia's sixth national mental health plan. It has been recommended mental health move to a more regional model of governance and planning, away from a centralised, top-down approach, partly in response to broader reforms affecting health care, and partly in direct response to consistent inquiry evidence that the mental health system remains in crisis. The past 30 years of mental health planning have been centralised. Successive national plans set a broad framework, with real decisions about mental health funding and service allocation made in the health departments of our capital cities. Will the next plan sponsor or inhibit regionality in mental health planning? This paper assesses Australia's historical approach to health planning particularly as it affected mental health and the costs arising. In learning these lessons, we propose the necessary ingredients to facilitate a regional, innovative, and effective approach to decentralised planning, for better mental health outcomes. We cannot afford to replicate the failed planning approaches of the past.     

国际私法中规则和标准之争的经济学分析

国际私法规范是应该主要表现为规则还是应该表现为标准引起了很大的争论,传统的理论分析在这个问题上并没有得出令人满意的结论。20世纪60年代经济学的方法被引进到国际私法领域中,并且首先被运用到对规则和标准合理性的论证中,现有的经济分析并没有给人们清晰的思路来解决规则和标准的争论。要想用经济学的方法来解决国际私法关于规则和标准之间的争论,必须深入到规则和标准的经济学本质并结合国际私法的实际,才能得出科学的结论。

制度环境、预期和效率——民事审限制度改革的新视角

民事审限制度作为一项具体的民事诉讼制度,面临着"存"与"废"之争论,改革之声也此起彼伏。从制度经济学的有关理论和公共选择经济学这个视角进行分析,民事审限制度只是民事诉讼这一"制度群"里的一项具体制度,有其存在的制度环境,而且能实现其制度预期,不应废止。但是民事审限延长制度因其责任主体违法处罚制度的缺失,以及审限延长理由的过于抽象性的规定,存在监管真空,极易出现司法腐败,有碍提高司法效率,因此亟需进行改革和完善。     

中国经济学的出场基点

20世纪上半叶,中国经济学依附于西方经济学,新中国成立后,又依附于苏联学人解释的马克思经济学.从1980年代起,西方经济学卷土重来,中国经济学人特别是中青年,越来越依附于西方经济学.进入21世纪,马克思经济学有被边缘化的迹象,西方经济学特别是号称主流经济学的新自由主义已陷入危机.中国经济学人开始思考,欲摆脱20世纪百年依附地位,独立门户,开创中国经济学.其思路是:结合中国现实,开创新的原理.西方经济学以经济人说为出场基点,马克思经济学以阶级人说为出场基点,而中国经济学为什么不能吸收二者的合理内核,克服其局限性,以两类人说为出场基点呢?这样,两类人说很可能就会成为中国经济学的一大核心理论,中国经济学也会因此而彻底摆脱对其他经济学的依附,成为一种真正独立的具有较强解释力的经济学理论体系.     

中国农村法治困境的经济学审视

建设法治国家,农村是关键,但目前农村的法治现状极不理想,法律对农民处于虚置状态。从经济学角度看,对农民而言,进行诉讼,社会成本是极大的,高昂的经济成本使农民远离诉讼。"厌讼"是农民在中国农村现实条件下的一种理性选择。     

析古典经济学劳动价值论及马克思对它的批判继承和发展

古典经济学的劳动价值论是马克思劳动价值论的来源。分析其历史贡献、局限性及其哲学意义，是正确理解马克思批判地继承并创新发展劳动价值论的重要问题。马克思的劳动价值论是建立在历史唯物主义基础之上，具有合理的科学内核和重大理论价值的一个科学范畴，贯穿于哲学到经济学的各个领域。
