行政合同纠纷几个法律问题探讨

行政合同与民事合同的区别主要体现在合同目的是否具有公益性、合同内容是否受公法调整。非行政合同当事人由于不具有实体上的请求权,与行政主体之间不具有法律上的因果关系,故无权提起行政诉讼。行政合同起诉期限应当借鉴民事合同诉讼时效的规定,区分有效和无效行政合同,采取不同的起诉期限计算方法。行政合同违约赔偿,是一种行政赔偿,在赔偿范围上应以原告实际经济损失为限。     

政府特许经营合同法律性质新探

政府特许经营合同是政府与私人投资者间就市政公用行业或基础设施领域中某个项目的建设、经营、移交而签订的协议。它的法律性质在学界是一个争议颇多的问题,主要有行政合同与民事合同之争。由于政府特许经营合同兼具行政合同与民事合同的特征,不能将其归类为单纯的行政合同或民事合同。它体现的法律关系更符合经济法的调整对象,因此是经济法意义上的合同。     

长三角城市群协同发展的实践探索与政策建议

长三角建成“具有全球竞争力的世界级城市群”,需要加强城市之间的协同发展。从1982年提出成立“上海经济区”开始,长三角城市群协同发展经历了初步试水、地方政府自发合作与央地协同三个阶段,协同发展取得了丰硕成果,然而,高水平打造长三角世界级城市群,需在现有行政区划下真正破壁行政区经济,紧扣“一体化”和“高质量”两个关键,使顶层设计与地方实践相结合,有效市场与有为政府形成合力,各扬所长、优势互补,提升整体竞争力。

史籍中所见的台湾平埔族“四社番”

史籍中对台湾平埔族的“四社番”屡有记载,历代均将其作为“熟番”的代表人群。然而“四社番”一词具体指代的原住民群落却在不同时期有所区别,“四社番”一词的含义的变迁反映了汉人移民逐渐从平原向山地拓殖,并使所到之处的原住民族群纷纷褪去原有的文化特色,与汉人社会融为一体的过程。     

Ideological Reorientation and Counterterrorism: Confronting Militant Islam in Egypt

During the 1990s, Egypt fought a bitter campaign against militant Islamist groups in which over a thousand people died. Since the end of the insurgency in 1997, Egypt's two fiercest Islamic terrorist groups, first the Islamic Group (Al-Gama‘a Al-Islamiyya) and then Islamic Jihad, not only ceased their violent activities but also produced and published texts revising their religious beliefs on the use of violence. Based on the counterterrorism experience of Egypt, this paper defines and describes a counterterrorism strategy of ideological reorientation. We define ideological reorientation as a counterterrorism approach that seeks to change core ideological or religious beliefs of the terrorist group, thus bringing the beliefs of group members in line with societal norms. While we cannot causally attribute the groups' decisions to lay down arms to ideological reorientation versus other regime actions (like repression), the Egyptian experience is highly suggestive. First, it indicates that the ideology of religiously-based groups is not exogenous and fixed, as is often assumed, but rather endogenous and flexible. Second, the Egyptian experience suggests that ideological reorientation may be more effective at stemming militancy in the long run compared to rival approaches.     

Restitutionary Remedies in the Contractual Context

Contracting parties sometimes have a claim to recover money paid in advance, or for reasonable payment for work done under the contract, commonly described as restitutionary remedies. This claim arising out of a contract is nowadays generally regarded as a non‐contractual, unjust enrichment claim governed by the modern law of unjust enrichment, by contrast with a contractual claim for damages or specific performance. The article argues that the claim is contractual, and that this is relevant to determining when it should be available and what the measure of recovery should be. In particular, it is argued that this follows from the proper understanding of the form of agreement made by contracting parties. The argument involves discussion of doctrinal categories such as contract and unjust enrichment, the relationship between primary and remedial rights in contract, the nature of contractual agreement, and the protection of reliance in contract.     

Legitimación en las acciones colectivas

This paper analyses the standing in collective actions to enforce undefined and collective interests as well as homogeneous individual interests, according to the Brazilian legal doctrine and legislation. He treats the types of class actions, the standing to bring a suit and the adequate representation in the Latin American countries that have developed these matters: Argentina, Brazil, Chile, Colombia, Mexico and Uruguay. Of Argentinean Law, the author examines the collective amparo contained in article 43 of the National Constitutional, and the environmental and consumer’s procedures. Of Brazilian Law, the author studies the actions to enforce undefined and collective interests and homogeneous individual interests, contained in the 1990 Consumer’s Defense Code. The Brazilian Law guidelines have influenced the Model Code of Collective Procedures for Iberoamerica and the Chilean and Mexican Laws. In Colombia the collective interests are enforced by popular actions, and the equivalent to the homogeneous individual interests are defended through group actions.
