开拓落实科学发展观的新途径——绿色经济学与经济转型

落实科学发展观,就要在战略全局上切实解决传统发展模式带来的一系列深层问题,为此必须在理论和实践上进行创新。创建绿色经济学和发展绿色经济,按照绿色经济学的"生态人"假设、"两个基本原理"、"四个转变"的理论思路,建立绿色政策体系和法律制度,实施绿色公共管理,全力推进发展方式转型,就是对全面落实科学发展观新途径的积极探索。通过绿色经济学的系统研究,指导一个发展中大国的经济转型和文明转型,无疑具有理论上与实践上的双重挑战意义。     

对波斯纳与科斯法经济学范式的解析

波斯纳以经济学打开法学的"黑箱",科斯以法学打开经济学"黑箱",作为经济学和法学交叉学科的法经济学由此形成两种理论范式,即法律的经济分析和经济的法律分析.波斯纳创立的法律的经济分析范式在为繁荣法经济学研究作出巨大贡献的同时也带来了极大的误区.重新繁荣法经济学研究,必须进行经济的法律分析.     

从“国际经济政治化”角度看日本对东盟的经济援助

日本在二战后对东南亚国家实施的经济援助除了商业上的动机外 ,还带有很强的战略性。日本在战后对东盟国家的经济援助分 3个阶段 :第 1阶段是从战后初期到上世纪的 6 0年代末 ,日本对东盟经济援助处于初始阶段 ,这一时期经济援助的经济意义占很大比重 ,但也含有一定的政治含义 ,且比较隐蔽 ;第 2阶段是从上世纪70年代的“福田主义”的出笼到贯穿整个 80年代的“综合安全保障”战略 ,这一阶段日本在外交上倾向独立 ,对东盟经济援助的政治化开始显现 ;第 3阶段是从冷战结束到现在 ,这个阶段日本对东盟经济援助的政治意图明显 ,直接服务于其政治大国战略。     

恐怖犯罪的犯罪经济学分析

犯罪经济学的理论认为,人的犯罪行为同其他行为一样。是在理性的指导下进行的,都是得失关系和效用理性选择的结果,恐怖犯罪的犯罪嫌疑人也是在综合分析该行为的成本收益之后才实施恐怖犯罪的。恐怖犯罪的成本包括：时间机会成本;惩罚成本;物质成本。恐怖犯罪收益是指从犯罪活动中所获得的利益,可以是精神的。也可以是物质的。在恐怖犯罪中,一般是为了获取经济收益以达到其政治目的。犯罪人之所以选择恐怖．其根本原因就是恐怖主义可以得到经济以及政治上的“暴利”。     

中国侵犯知识产权犯罪原因探析

犯罪学意义上的知识产权犯罪是指侵犯他人的知识产权权益,对社会具有严重危害性的行为。犯罪行为的发生是犯罪外因与内因相互作用的结果。在外因层面,我国社会经济、政治、文化及法制环境中存在的某些不利因素,为侵犯知识产权犯罪提供了滋生滋长的土壤;在内因层面,犯罪经济学的成本一收益理论阐释了在知识产权犯罪巨额收益的基础上,诸多犯罪外因极大地降低了侵犯知识产权犯罪的成本．最终导致个体犯罪动机的形成。提高我国公民的知识产权保护意识,完善侵犯知识产权犯罪的立法,以及大力改善执法不力的现状,是当前形势下知识产权犯罪防治之举的重中之重。     

Women and Asylum: A Particular Social Group

This note examines the judgement of the House of Lords in the cases of Islam andShah, particularly with regard to their conclusion that women in Pakistan who were victims of domestic violence and not protected by their state could qualify as members of a particular social group under the Geneva Convention, and therefore attain refugee status. The note considers the Refugee Women's Legal Group's Gender Guidelines for the Determination of Asylum Claims in the U.K. and discusses the problems faced by women who claim refugee status. Finally, the conceptualisation of domestic violence as a political issue and therefore a matter falling within the scope of the Convention issue is analysed. This revised version was published online in July 2006 with corrections to the Cover Date.     

关于犯罪经济学理性选择理论的一些探讨

犯罪经济学是一门新兴而潜力无限的犯罪学学科,其中的理性选择理论对于犯罪原因的解释虽不适用于任何犯罪行为,但对这一理论的研究还有更多值得去深入思考和探索的地方,而且也需要这样做。     

Should Business and Non-Business Accounting be Different? A Comparative Perspective Applied to the French Central Government Accounting Standards

The French General Law of Finances of 2001 introduced a set of accounting standards including an explicit conceptual framework reconciling accrual basis accounting with the specific aspects of accounting for central government activities. This article analyzes this French set of accounting standards from a dualistic perspective that compares both business and non-business accounting. Three different views of accounting for business enterprises are addressed: the wealth-basis (static), the cash-basis, and the accrual-basis (dynamic). A dynamic view of the accrual basis is adapted to the specificities of non-business entities, including governments. The accounting representation is used here to explore further the nature and role of public sector activities within the economic system and their economic and monetary significance.     

The Cultural Logic of Work: Explaining Labour Deployment and Piece-Rate Contracts in Matar Taluka,Gujarat - Parts 1 and 2

This two-part essay seeks to explain why group-based and individual piecework arrangements have become the modal form of payment for a variety of agricultural tasks in central Gujarat, India. Part 1 of the essay reviews New Institutional Economics (NIE) and Marxist Political Economy (MPE) approaches to the labour process, and claims that while the 'efficiency' and 'disciplinary' considerations emphasized by NIE and MPE in their explanations of contractual change are important influences on the labour process, specific institutional outcomes depend heavily on the cultural realities of actors' practices. Part 2 challenges the epistemological assumptions of NIE and MPE narratives, specifically that agents with stable identities perform actions with fixed meanings. Instead, the recent surge in piecework employment must be viewed as part of an ongoing tussle between the dominant Lewa Patel caste and the subordinate Baraiya/Koli caste to alter their relative standings in the social order. Their unceasing attempts to reinvent their group identities have involved shifting understandings of 'work' - with direct implications for labour contracts. As a corrective to NIE and MPE, the essay proposes a semiotic approach to the labour process that bundles the notions of 'social regulation' and 'self-regulation' into the concept of 'work governmentality'.     

Admitting a Bad Influence: Contracting the Public Service

Abstract

Emulation of the private sector is a longstanding controversy in public administration, but could it constitute a bad influence, of the kind that parents seek to guard against by scrutinizing their children's peers? Effectiveness provides a perspective on how helpful or harmful private sector influence has been for the public service. The practice of contracting-out under the A-76 process receives particular scrutiny relative to maintaining the effectiveness of public agencies. A second perspective on private sector influence examines, through the theoretical perspective of transaction-cost economics, the promise of cost savings that justified recent acceleration of contracting-out. The author, himself a government contractor, also bases his analysis on personal experience.
