Challenges of Protecting India From Terrorism

The secular, pluralistic, ethnically diverse, and vibrant democracy that India has nurtured ever since its independence in 1947 has become the envy of many radical and extremist ideologies and religions that seek to bring in order through tools of fourth generation warfare like Jihad and “Proxy War.” Typical examples of such conflicts facing India are the ones being waged against her by Jehadi organizations like the Lashkar-e-Taiba and other proxy factions supported by the Pakistan Inter Services Intelligence Agency. Despite a few pro-active measures instituted by the government of India after the 26/11 Mumbai attacks, there is no clear counter-terrorism policy that has been articulated either in the form of a doctrine or white paper. If India has to dispel the image of being a “soft state,” it is imperative that the government clearly spells out its stand on terrorism.     

STR-typer 10G/F试剂在单亲鉴定中的应用

目的观察和分析STR-typer 10G/F试剂盒在单亲鉴定中的作用。方法随机抽样湖北地区汉族个体206人静脉血样,Chelex-100法提取基因组DNA。采用STR-typer 10G/F试剂盒进行复合扩增,分型并计数基因型并计算基因频率、基因座杂合度(H)、标准三联体非父排除率(PE3)和二联体非父排除率(PE2)。结果 9个STR基因座等位基因数9～14个,基因型分布观察值与Hardy-Weinberg平衡理论值的差异均无显著性(P>0.05),杂合度在0.75以上,平均非父排除率0.57～0.75;STR-typer 10G/F试剂盒累积非父排除率(PE3)0.999 973,合并使用Identifiler Plus系统,累积非父排除率可达0.999 999 967 6。结论 STR-typer 10G/F系统多态性程度基本接近Identifiler Plus系统,在单亲鉴定时,可作为Identifiler试剂盒的有效补充。     

UPLC-MS/MS法检测血液中的磺胺嘧啶

Narco-Territoriality and Shadow Powers in a Peruvian Cocaine Frontier

ABSTRACT

Whereas cocaine kingpins are often portrayed as key protagonists and perpetrators of violence in Latin America, in Peru’s Upper Huallaga they are also important powerholders who have formed dynamic systems of governance by dominating socio-economic resources and legitimating their narco-territoriality through arrangements with a variety of “shadow powers.” Although potentially violent armed actors, whether insurgents or the police and military, often abound in these “dangerous places,” in the post-conflict Upper Huallaga most of these groups aimed to gain more power and control by forming coalitions with the local powerholders. Drawing upon the narratives of drug barons, traffickers and producers, insurgents, and state officers, this article seeks to focus on an aspect that is largely overlooked in other analyses: the intricate relationship between contested narco-territoriality, weakening local governance networks, and “new” outbreaks of violence.     

Combatting peer-to-peer file sharing of copyrighted material via anti-piracy laws: Issues,trends, and solutions

This article analyses potential end-user copyright violations associated with peer-to-peer (P2P) file sharing and the anti-piracy efforts currently underway in order to tackle them. This article discusses international developments in terms of trends, issues and solutions aimed at addressing peer-to-peer file sharing of copyrighted material. First, the article introduces P2P file sharing, its increasing significance in the growing digital media economy, and the legal issues surrounding this topic. Next, the article provides a comparative analysis of global efforts and trends in preventing digital piracy by analyzing relevant legislation, case law and practices in multiple jurisdictions, including the United States, United Kingdom, France, Sweden, and Japan. In addition, the article reviews Hong Kong's current case law and proposed legal reforms including an analysis of their deficiencies with respect to addressing P2P copyright infringement. The article concludes with an analysis of existing trends in preventive measures against copyright infringement through P2P file sharing and suggests directions on future legal and non-legal measures that Hong Kong as well as the international community can take in combating digital piracy and copyright infringement through peer-to-peer file sharing.     

Atropine Eye Drops: An Unusual Homicidal Poisoning

In March 2009, the body of a 51‐year‐old man was found in the boot of his car. The body had been frozen before being dismembered at the abdomen. The autopsy failed to determine the cause of death. Systematic toxicological analyses of the victim's peripheral blood and urine showed the presence of atropine, a powerful anticholinergic. Atropine was therefore specifically detected and quantified throughout the victim's biologic samples by HPLC‐MS² in the biologic fluids and UHPLC‐MS² in the hair. The atropine concentrations were 887 ng/mL in the cardiac blood, 489 ng/mL in the peripheral blood, 6693 ng/mL in the gastric contents (1.1 μg), 6753 ng/mL in the urine, and 2290 pg/mg in the hair. The blood concentrations measured in the decedent were consistent with an overdose of atropine, which was determined as the cause of death. The manner of death was a homicide with criminal intent.     

吗啡及其代谢物在藏毒致死者体内分布初探

目的采用固相萃取、液相色谱一串联质谱（LC-MS／MS）检验方法,考察吗啡和葡萄糖醛酸吗啡（M3G）在一例体内藏毒致急性死亡者体内分布情况。方法提取死者心血、尿、胃内容物、肝、肾、脑等15种检材,经Waters HLB小柱固相萃取后,C18色谱柱分离,采用电喷雾电离（ESI）、多反应监测模式（MRM）检测目标化合物。结果所建方法在0．0l～101μg／mL浓度范围内线性关系良好,提取回收率大于75％。结果显示总吗啡含量（游离态＋结合态）在胃内容物中最高,其次是尿、‘肾,在心血、胃组织、肺和腺体中居中,脑组织和心脏含量最低。结论本例检验结果验证了胃内容物、尿液和肾脏等是该类中毒案件的理想检材,其分布规律也可作为体内毒品分析实验依据。     

比较视野下适老化改造的国际经验与中国路径

适老化改造是当代实现居家养老的前提条件,已成为各国应对人口快速老龄化的基本政策。国内自2013年新《老年人权益保障法》强调建设老年宜居环境以来,各地开始推动老年人生活环境的改善,但由于责任主体不明、操作程序不清等诸多问题,改造成效相对有限。较早步入老龄化的西方发达国家已普遍实施居家适老化改造,建构了一套切实可行的制度体系和服务路径。本文通过比较分析美国、日本、瑞典在不同福利政策下形成的适老化改造实践,总结这些国家的典型做法和先进经验,进而提出我国适老化改造的规范化建议及可行性路径,以解决环境设施和老龄社会要求之间日益凸显的矛盾。     

混合显现液对三种渗透性纸张上潜汗指印的显现

通过正交试验筛选出2%茚三酮与0.5%硝酸银/乙醇混合液分别对牛皮纸、硬纸板、A4复印纸三种客体表面上不同时期遗留的潜汗指印进行显现。结果表明该混合显现液均能显现渗透性和非渗透性客体上的新鲜指印,和不同时期的陈旧性潜汗指印。而且对陈旧性潜汗指印的显现效果与常见的显现方法的显现效果进行了对比,分析得出混合显现液在许多方面存在较多的优势。     

国家司法中民间习俗的影响力评析——中国语境中哈特与德沃金之争的反思

作为一种司法改革举措,民间习俗在一些法院中得到运用,民间习俗对国家司法的影响力也就成为需要法理论证的问题。在中国语境中反思哈特与德沃金关于此问题的观点,他们的思想仍有许多启发作用。哈特通过承认规则塑造了习俗的有效性,而德沃金则通过权利原则将习俗引入国家司法。尽管哈特与德沃金意见有所分歧,但他们从不同视角提供了习俗进入司法的实践方法。
