试论人民政协政治沟通的机制性问题及其对策

政治沟通功能是人民政协的基本功能。从建国至今,人民政协在沟通执政党、政府与民众方面发挥了十分重要的桥梁和纽带作用。但是,受多种因素的影响,目前,在人民政协的沟通过程中还存在许多机制性问题,沟通主体、沟通渠道、沟通客体、沟通方式等沟通要素难以有机结合、相互联动,致使上情难以下传、下情难以上达、沟通不畅等现象还时常存在。要改变这种状况,充分发挥人民政协的政治沟通功能,就必须健全沟通要素的功能,通过制度化建设等措施,促进沟通要素的有机结合、相互联动,形成运行有效的沟通机制。     

政党的执政资源与执政成本初探

政党的执政资源,是指政党执政所必需的能量及其来源。政党的执政成本,是指执政党维持执政地位和政权运行而耗费的执政资源的总和。但是资源的利用和耗费也是一种投入,会产生收益。政党执政是一个“成本投入——收益产出”的过程。如果政党执政的成本支出超过了执政的收益,就是执政成本过高,资源积累就会减少,就会逐渐削弱政党执政的地位,潜伏并酝酿出执政的危机。因此,执政党都要努力降低执政成本。

Political leadership in times of crisis: the Commission presidency of Jean-Claude Juncker

Abstract

This article explores the leadership of Jean-Claude Juncker as Commission president, addressing two questions: to what extent did Juncker exercise political leadership and in what ways did his leadership qualify as explicitly political? Drawing on leadership theory and recent insights into political leadership in the EU, the article first conceptualises the Commission president’s potential for acting as a leader – particularly a political leader. The empirical section analyses Juncker’s provision of agenda-setting and mediative-institutional leadership in two phases: the first marked by an extraordinary activism and an assertive attitude in agenda-setting, but with limited successes in achieving binding decisions; the second characterised by launching proposals for deliberation and debate, embedded in longer-term visions. The article concludes that around the mid-term of his incumbency, Juncker adapted to the constraining institutional and situational context by engaging in mediative-institutional leadership and carving out a new, more political role for the Commission president.

Two dimensions of the Europeanization of election programs: The case of the Czech Republic

This article represents a contribution to the debate over the Europeanization of political parties, one of the hot topics in contemporary political science. It explores the extent of Europeanization in political parties represented in the lower chamber of the Parliament of the Czech Republic by means of an analysis of party election manifestoes. The extent of Europeanization in these documents is analyzed using a bi-dimensional conceptualization. The first we call the quantitative dimension, assesses the space taken by the topic of European integration in each manifesto. The second one we call the qualitative dimension. This, using the analysis of content, measures the degree to which the European integration issue is elaborated in the programs. Using this conceptualization, we analyze the election manifestoes of five Czech political parties in the period 1996–2006.     

中国儿童参与权状况及其法律保障

儿童的参与权是确保儿童的各项权利能够真正得到实现的一项具有基本价值的权利。承认儿童的参与权也就意味着承认儿童是拥有权利的积极主体,承认儿童是儿童问题的专家。承认儿童的参与权也意味着对家长制作风的否定。中国儿童的参与权状况在近些年有了很大改善,但是,除非有系统的法律保障,儿童的参与权意识很难短时间内在大众的心里扎根,儿童也很难在影响他们自身利益的事务中发挥应有的作用。     

日本政治文化对外交政策的影响

日本政治文化的多元性特点,表现为日本外交政策的两面性和暧昧性;对外寻求在国际体系中“各得其所,各安其分”的等级观,极力向外扩张,寻求扩大自身的国际影响力;神道教主要体现在对外交决策制定人员及外交政策的牵制作用;“耻感文化”使日本外交具有敏感性,很大程度上是对外部世界行为的被动反应,同时也使日本外交很少考虑道德问题;“集团主义”表现为在国际交往方面十分谨慎和追求与强国的结盟。
