论信息化时代的网络舆论监督

网络舆论监督的形成是依赖互联网的各种功能而实现的,其相较于传统舆论监督具有监督范围更广、监督效率更高、监督方式更加灵活等特点。我国网络舆论监督的力量开始形成并逐步增强,但其监控力度还不足。鉴于网络的双面性作用。应采取相应有效的措施,积极引导网络舆论,充分发挥其监督作用。     

人民政协的基本职能与加强和改进中国共产党的自身建设

人民政协的发展与中国共产党的建设不可分割地联系在一起。人民政协的政治协商,是提高党的执政能力的重要途径;人民政协的民主监督,是促进党的廉政建设的重要力量;人民政协的参政议政,是改进党的领导方式的重要条件。     

论金融法制的横向规制趋势

21世纪以来,英德日韩等国金融法制出现了从纵向金融行业规制到横向金融商品规制的发展趋势。2006年日本将《证券交易法》改组为《金融商品交易法》,把证券、信托、金融期货、金融衍生品等大部分金融商品进行一揽子、统合性的规范,构建了一个横向化、整体覆盖金融服务的法律体系。金融危机爆发后,美国也深刻认识到其纵向监管机构对不断创新的金融商品缺乏横向统一规制的问题。本文考察国际金融法制的横向规制趋势,从金融商品和金融业的横向规制两个角度,对日本《金融商品交易法》的适用范围、行业规制、行为规制、投资者种类、自律规制机关等内容进行全面分析,进而探讨我国应对金融横向规制趋势的法律对策。     

区块链技术在政府监管中的定位及法律规制——基于海关监管的视角

“区块链+”已经开始延伸到政府监管的应用场景,其有利于提升监管的整体效能。鉴于区块链技术在政府监管中的定位及法律规制问题的复杂性,海关监管是合适的样本。区块链背景下我国海关监管存在交易主体虚拟化、交易过程无纸化以及交易信息中心化的问题。为此,需要客观冷静看待区块链技术在海关监管中的定位,它不仅仅是海关监管过程中的技术增量,也是优化海关监管流程的重要推手,更能够孵化实现海关监管核心目标的创新措施,但也存在着双刃剑的负面效应,应通过确定多维宽容的规制理念、拓展行业协会与企业为规制主体以及鼓励适用柔性规制方法来构建我国区块链海关监管的法律规制体系。同时,我国必须秉承国际视野,把向国际社会提供一个完整的、带有普适性的区块链技术政府监管方案作为远期的重要目标。     

The challenge of locating land-based climate change mitigation and adaptation politics within a social justice perspective: towards an idea of agrarian climate justice

Abstract

The global land rush and mainstream climate change narratives have broadened the ranks of state and social actors concerned about land issues, while strengthening those opposed to social justice-oriented land policies. This emerging configuration of social forces makes the need for deep social reforms through redistribution, recognition, restitution, regeneration and resistance – book-ended by the twin principles of ‘maximum land size’ (‘size ceiling’) and a ‘guaranteed minimum land access’ (‘size floor’) – both more compelling and urgent, and, at the same time, more difficult than ever before. The five deep social reforms of socially just land policy are necessarily intertwined. But the global land rush amidst deepening climate change calls attention to the linkages, especially between the pursuit of agrarian justice on the one hand and climate justice on the other. Here, the relationship is not without contradictions, and warrants increased attention as both unit of analysis and object of political action. Understanding and deepening agrarian justice imperatives in climate politics, and understanding and deepening climate justice imperatives in agrarian politics, is needed more than ever in the ongoing pursuit of alternatives.     

The right to food in the context of large-scale land investment in Ethiopia

Abstract

Since the global food crises of 2007, smallholder farmers, pastoralists, indigenous peoples and other rural groups in many developing countries have seen their access to land, water and forest resources being threatened and reduced due to the acquisition of those resources by other actors – acquisitions that may have been promoted by state policies. Taking up the case of Ethiopia, this article aims to explore the implications of large-scale agricultural investments for local food security and the right to food. The article argues that in the context of the recent and ongoing large-scale agricultural investments driven primarily by the state, the interpretation and realisation of the right to food becomes a politically contested issue and that such investments run counter to implementing the state’s obligation to protect local people’s access to and procurement of adequate food. It argues that the large-scale agricultural investments both condition and pervert the realisation of food security.     

监察委员会调查阶段律师介入的制度构想

国家为推进监察体制改革,出台了《中华人民共和国监察法》,对于增强反腐败工作的法治保障,推进国家治理体系和治理能力现代化发挥了重要作用。《监察法》规定的留置措施在性质上与刑事诉讼强制措施极为类似,但《监察法》未在监察委员会调查阶段规定律师介入的内容,对保护被调查人的正当权益极为不利。应当明晰律师介入调查程序的合理性与必要性,参照《刑事诉讼法》的相关规定进行制度设计,化解不利风险,寻求最佳路径选择。     

现行警务监督机制的弊端及其对策分析

警务监督是预防和遏制警察违法违纪的重要环节。但现行的警务监督机制还不够完备,存在着一些明显的缺陷与不足。需要从以下几个方面对之进行完善:以突出执法监督为重点,建立警务监督的快速反应机制;破解端正执法思想和强化责任追究的难点,建立科学高效的评估和预警机制;针对“五条禁令”、“四个坚决”和涉案财物管理等热点,切实加大整治力度。

Livestock livelihoods compromised: the dilemma of the Fast Track Land Reform and Resettlement Programme in Matabeleland South,Zimbabwe

This article attempts to unravel the rubric of livestock rearing in Southern Matabeleland in the aftermath of the Fast Track Land Reform and Resettlement Programme (FTLRRP). It also shows how livestock rearing has been placed high in livelihood rankings in this region. The article is based on a detailed ethnographic study of the impact of the FTLRRP in the decade 2000 to 2010 in Gwanda and Umzingwane districts, and is an extract of my PHD thesis entitled ‘Visible hectares, Vanishing livelihoods’. The broad argument of the thesis is that the land reform programme has achieved change of commercial land ownership patterns from ‘white’ to ‘black’ Zimbabweans. The programme however has not coupled that with the support necessary to improve the livelihoods of the majority of people in the region. One of the impediments is that the state-crafted ‘one size fits all’ resettlement model failed to take cognisance of the socio-economic and ecological conditions of different provinces in the country. Hence the argument in this article is that the FTLRRP could have improved livelihoods of people in this region if livestock rearing was given priority and support by the state.
