完善我国异议登记制度的法律思考

异议登记是为阻却登记公信力而设的一种预防措施,是不动产登记中不可缺少的制度。我国现行的物权立法虽然规定了异议登记制度,但仍然存在不够完善之处。应在借鉴国外法律资源的基础上,从异议登记的适用范围和条件、异议登记的效力及限制等方面加以修改,以建立符合我国国情,并具有可操作性的异议登记制度。

北京民间妇女组织公信力建设的路径探索

公信力是民间妇女组织获取支持并得以持续发展的重要条件。近年来,北京民间妇女组织有了一定程度的发展,但相对于其他民间组织,民间妇女组织发展则较为缓慢,其突出表现为公众对民间妇女组织的认知度偏低。因此,提高北京民间妇女组织的公信力,需从自律机制、他律机制两方面寻求具有可操作性的实施路径。     

司法公信力的意义阐释

司法公信力源于司法的自治力、司法的说服力和司法的确定力。司法公信力是政治国家与市民社会理性沟通的产物,是一种归属于社会资本的制度性资源,是司法在发挥纠纷解决功能、权利救济功能和法律发展功能过程中建构起来的任用和信用关系,是司法权威历史演化的产物。

论合同附随义务

合同附随义务的诞生以诚实信用原则为基础,是传统合同义务发生了扩张的结果。《合同法》不仅保护合同本身,更注重对合同关系发展的整个过程的调整,对合同当事人履行合同义务提出了更为周全细致的要求,在辅助给付利益实现之际又对当事人的固有利益提供了保障,以实现当事人之间以及当事人与社会之间的利益平衡。

Cultural Identities of Adolescent Immigrants: A Three-Year Longitudinal Study Including the Pre-Migration Period

This article investigates the cultural identities of adolescent immigrants in the pre-migration period and during the first 3 years after immigration. The target population consists of high-school Jewish adolescents from Russia and Ukraine participating in an Israeli immigration program. In this program, Jewish adolescents immigrate to Israel without their parents, live in kibbutzim and boarding schools, and study in Israeli schools. Participants filled out questionnaires four times: half a year before their departure from the homeland and once a year for three consecutive years after their arrival to Israel. Changes in the cultural identities during immigration were curvilinear. Three stages were distinguished: devaluation of the homeland and idealization of the country of immigration in the pre-migration period, disillusionment with the receiving country and strengthening of the homeland cultural identity in the first year after immigration, and the formation of an inconsistent bi-cultural identity in the later post-migration period. Throughout the entire post-migration period, immigrants’ attitude towards the receiving country was more positive than their attitude towards their homeland; however, immigrants’ sense of belonging to the homeland was stronger than their sense of belonging to the receiving country. Pre-migration cultural identities and perceived discrimination in the receiving country predicted post-migration cultural identities of immigrants. Immigrant adolescents from ethnically homogenous Jewish families had a less positive attitude towards Russia/Ukraine, a more positive attitude towards Israel, and a weaker sense of belonging to Russia/Ukraine as compared to immigrants from ethnically mixed families.

What Does Credibility Look like? Tweets and Walls in U.S. Presidential Candidates’ Visual Storytelling

This study considers the social media visual messaging of four candidates in the 2012 U.S. Republican presidential primary campaign. The analysis is guided by symbolic convergence theory, its method of fantasy theme analysis, and visual rhetoric theory. Using a schema of visual attributes, this study analyzes a rhetorical strategy of candidates' campaigns: the pictorial “public diary” found on their official Facebook and Twitter pages. It reveals how the credibility character traits of trustworthiness and expertise appear in the candidates' visual narratives, what messages dominate, and how candidates differ in succeeding or failing to visually communicate credibility. This study has important implications for how political management can use images in crafting and assessing messaging strategies in a competitive environment.
