新型农村合作医疗运行风险及其防范监控机制

在新型农村合作医疗制度由试点普及向规范持续运行转轨的关键时期,懈决医疗服务机构、参合农民、医疗保险机构、政府间的逆选择、道德风险及基金运行风险是合作医疗风险防范监管的核心。可以通过优化管理模式、健全管理机制,强化行政组织监督、社会监督、职能监督机制,健全风险防范的监督管理机制;同时通过基金风险预警机制、医疗服务费用控制、参合农民风险控制,实现风险防范的激励约束机制。     

地方政府投融资平台公司债务风险治理的私法向度简

地方政府投融资平台公司的设立是政府的一种行政私法行为，即行政主体为了达到公法上的目的而从事的私法活动。投融资平台公司功能的充分发挥吁求政府进行弱行政化治理，赋予平台公司更多的市场自主性，促使投融资平台公司在参与市场竞争以及承担政府职责之间寻得平衡。国发[2010]19号文件创设了清理地方投融资平台公司的有益机制。借由公司法以及担保法等民事立法向度，我们可以寻觅到治理地方政府违规担保、债务主体不明、滥发企业债券、混淆企业债务与政府债务等问题的路径，进而构建防治债务风险之体系。     

Bridging social and environmental risks: the potential for an emerging environmental justice framework in South Africa

Whereas anti-apartheid social movements engaged collectively against a repressive regime, especially in actions against social injustices, post-apartheid civil society has witnessed fragmentation when it comes to engaging jointly against neoliberal risks such as poor/no service delivery, privatisation, and environmental pollution. Civil society has not linked struggles into a coherent ideology to comprehensively challenge neoliberalism and associated risks. Research has not explored the underlying elements that contribute to reinforcing fragmentation. This article reviews the literature on key social and environmental struggles in order to draw out common elements and differences that reinforce fragmentation. The paper highlights the need for social and environmental activists to engage collectively both within their respective arenas, as well as across the social and environmental divide, if an environmental justice framework is to emerge. Social movements advocating social justice could serve as a platform to incorporate environmental discourses into their struggle to assist in formulating an environmental justice framework.     

债转股的风险与对策

金融资产管理公司组建后最重要的工作就是进行债转股,学者们将这一工作称为一种“双赢”——化解金融风险,减轻企业债务负担。但是在债转股实践中,资产回收风险依然困扰着国有商业银行。本文具体分析了银行面临的各种风险,并有针对性地提出化解风险的对策。     

日本金融监管体系的重建及启示

1998年以来,日本系统地重建了金融监管体系。其主要内容包括金融监管机构改革和提高金融监管效能,事前金融监管制度重建与提高金融机构经营健全性,事后金融安全网建设和防范系统性风险等三个方面。日本的经验表明,金融监管体制都具有时效性特征。将金融自由化与金融监管对立关系对立起来缺乏合理性,金融监管的作用是评估和检查金融机构的风险控制程序,而不是代替金融机构决策和进行风险控制。     

Flesh and steel: antithetical figures in the war on terrorism

The ongoing conflict in the war on terrorism puts two emblematic modes of violence into sharp relief: the drone, as an ostensibly rational, clinical and measured weapon of war, and suicide bombings, frequently portrayed as the horrid deeds of fanatics. In this article, I seek to challenge this juxtaposition and instead suggest that both modalities of killing are part of the same technologically-mediated ecology of violence. To do this, I examine the material-semiotic assemblage of the drone and of the suicide bomber, paying attention to the technological production of each mode of violence, as well as the narratives that render each figure intelligible in the war on terrorism. I argue that the strongly divergent narratives found in Western discourse serve as a politically expedient sense–making device, whereby suicide bombing is pathologised, thereby justifying ever more intrusive violent acts with seemingly rational technologies like the drone. Rather than “solving” the problem of terrorism, this creates counter-productive, or iatrogenic, effects, in which technological mediation escalates rather than diminishes cycles of violence. By way of response, I suggest that a better understanding of the relational nature of violence in the war on terrorism might be gained by reading the two not as antithetical figures, but instead as operating in the same technological key.     

State terrorism: orientalism and the drone programme

This article builds on the recent and growing scholarship on the negative effects of the drone programme. Current literature has shown that the drone programme terrorises the civilian population that it keeps under surveillance. Furthermore, it has articulated the drone programme’s violence as biopolitical and its surveillance as a necropolitical technology of distinction. It is argued in this article that the Orientalist attitudes and logic necessary for drone targeting form the basis for the biopolitical and necropolitical component of the drone programme. This article explores the Orientalism that suffuses the US drone programme in order to juxtapose it with governmental discourses that characterise the drone programme and its surveillance as neutral and humane – demonstrating the gap between government discourses of modernity and the actual drone programme. The necropolitical logic of distinction used for targeting leads to the assimilation of those under the drone’s gaze to a population that can be put to death, leading the drone programme to operate indiscriminately. The biopolitical logic is visible in the US practices, which I argue constitutes terrorism with the corroboration of civilian testimonies.     

Unmanned aerial vehicles: A preliminary analysis of forensic challenges

As unmanned aerial vehicles have become more affordable, their popularity with the general public and commercial organisations has seen significant growth in recent years. Whilst remaining a device for both the hobbyist and aircraft-enthusiast to enjoy, they are now also used for carrying out activities such as law enforcement surveillance, agricultural maintenance, acquiring specialist movie and sports event footage along with search and seizure activities. Conversely, despite maintaining many legitimate uses, there are also increasing media reports of unmanned aerial vehicle technology being abused, ranging from physical assaults due to negligent flights to breaches of Civil Aviation Authority Air Navigation Regulations, requiring a forensic analysis of these devices in order to establish the chain of events. This article presents an introductory discussion of unmanned aerial vehicle analysis and provides the results of a digital forensic investigation of a test Parrot Bebop unmanned aerial vehicle. Directions for the acquisition and analysis of the device's internal storage are provided along with an interpretation of on-board flight data, captured media and operating system. Further, as the device can be controlled via Android and iOS devices using the application FreeFlight3, forensic analysis of these devices is also presented. Results showed the ability to recover flight data from both the unmanned aerial vehicle and controller handsets along with captured media, however problems exist with establishing the definitive owner of the device, particularly if a user had abandoned it at the scene of a crime.

Governance Barriers to Renewable Energy in North Africa

Solar power in the North African region has the potential to provide electricity for local energy needs and export to Europe. Nevertheless, despite the technical feasibility of solar energy projects, stakeholders still perceive projects in the region as risky because of existing governance issues. Certain areas of solar projects, such as construction, operation and management, are the most prone to governance risks, including lack of transparency and accountability, perceived as barriers for deployment of the projects. It is likely that large-scale foreign direct investment into solar energy will not eliminate existing risks, but might even increase them. Furthermore, the recent political changes in the region have addressed some governance risks but not all of them, especially bureaucratic corruption. Stakeholders recommend a broad set of measures to facilitate development of solar projects in the region, ranging from auditing of individual projects to simplification and unification of bureaucratic procedures.
