政治动员的行动逻辑——一个概念模型及其应用

政治动员作为现代社会治理的一种方式,以其独有的功能效应和运作魅力而持续吸引政治科学的关注。但从目前研究现状来看,政治动员研究观念、方法滞后,解释不了基本问题和现实的变化,需要拓展新的研究空间。两个视角的深入应当成为研究前沿:政治动员的研究需要在界划各种类型基础上,注重分析动员过程中集体行动形成的隐秘机制———动员议题建构和公众聚合认同,以求取一般化理论知识;面对威权政体下政治动员往往带来“崇高的紧张”的结局、自由民主政体下竞选动员走向“失衡的承诺”的普遍化的现实,政治动员怎样克服“身份———功能”危机,以适应现代社会治理模式公共管理转向的趋势。     

行政行为的分类:概念重构抑或正本清源

要解决我国行政行为分类学说的混乱,从功能上说,只需保留少量必要的分类,而应将大量分类纳入相关原理介绍和讨论;从行政行为的内涵上说,勿需概念重构,只需正本清源,即将行政行为界定为行政权作用并实行分级分类;从行政法制度建构上说,行政救济范围的确定并不完全取决于行政行为的分类,不必过多批评抽象行政行为和具体行政行为的划分。这种划分主要服务于依法行政自律机制的建立,并且从行政程序法的草拟和行政行为的统计上来看,也有必要将行政行为界定为行政权作用,然后再作进一步的分级分类。     

行政诉讼应该确立调解原则吗?

在制度多元的今天 ,在纠纷解决机制日趋灵动的当今社会 ,调解所具有的优越性固然不应该被忽略 ;但是 ,在我国行政审判的现实环境下 ,一旦在实定法上规定调解原则 ,调解本身所具有的弊端极可能彰显无疑。从策略上考虑 ,在撤诉制度实践事实上已起到调解作用的情况下 ,不宜再在立法上确立行政诉讼调解原则。

Opposition Coordination in Singapore’s 2015 General Elections

Abstract

Recent political science scholarship suggests that when opposition political parties are able to coalesce into a united coalition against an authoritarian regime, they will perform better in authoritarian elections, and can more credibly bargain with the regime for liberalising reforms. Yet, most of this literature pays little attention to the variety of ways in which opposition parties cooperate with each other. Drawing on the literature on the bargaining model of war, the author sketches out a theoretical framework to explain how opposition parties coordinate to develop non-competition agreements. Such agreements entail opposition parties bargaining over which political party should contest or withdraw in which constituencies to ensure straight fights against the dominant authoritarian incumbent in each electoral district. The author then applies this framework to explain opposition coordination in Singapore’s 2015 general elections, focusing on the conflict between the Workers’ Party and the National Solidarity Party.     

Singapore’s 2015 General Election: Explaining PAP’s Resounding Win

Abstract

While Singapore’s 15th general election came about as expected, the ensuing results did not. In view of the opposition’s performance in the 2011 general election and the general sense that the ruling party had done well despite its performance being anything but sterling, the results were somewhat shocking. Even the leaders of the ruling party were caught by surprise at the party’s ability to garner 70% of the valid votes, 10% more than in the previous election. While many factors played a role, it was the opposition parties that lost the election rather than the ruling party that won it. Most of the opposition parties were rejected by the voters on grounds of not being worthy of support. The leading opposition party, the Workers’ Party, also suffered as many voters feared that it might perform too well to the detriment of the ruling party. In the end, the 2015 general elections strengthened the one-party-dominant state in Singapore and the quest for greater political representation was placed on the back burner.     

Gender Differences in Delinquency and Situational Action Theory: A Partial Test

This paper investigates to what extent a recent perspective in criminology, Situational Action Theory, is valid for both males and females and to what extent elements from the theory explain gender differences in delinquency. Data are used from the first (N?=?843) and second (N?=?616) wave of the Study of Peers, Activities, and Neighborhoods, which included detailed data about core elements of Situational Action Theory (morality, self-control, unsupervised peer activity and peer deviancy), proposed indirect causes (bonds with parents and school, parental monitoring) and self-reported delinquency. Cross-sectional and lagged Tobit regression analyses show that the core relations with delinquency are not significantly different between boys and girls and that the elements of Situational Action Theory are able to explain gender differences in delinquency for a substantial part. However, there is still a remaining independent effect of gender on current and lagged delinquency.

浅议危险犯的基本问题

在刑法需满足人们对安全和稳定的社会需求的背景下,刑法中关于危险犯的理论问题受到了人们的关注。就目前关于危险犯的认识而言,在其性质、类别、停止形态等方面存在不少分歧和争议。对危险犯应认定其是一种独立于行为犯、结果犯的行为类型并与二者共存,在其停止形态方面应该从具体危险犯和抽象危险犯的特殊场合予以讨论。     

Mining and subaltern politics: political struggle against neoliberal development in Bangladesh

Drawing on social movement scholarship, this paper analyses subaltern struggles against a multinational mining company. The Phulbari coal mine is the centre of contention between the mining company and local/national activists. Local concerns about the dispossession of lands and livelihoods and environmental destruction have been merged with a Leftist political agenda on the growing vulnerability of the state and national sovereignty in the Global South. A close examination of the movement's discourses suggests that a broader political struggle against resource plunder and energy imperialism has been strengthened by local community resistance to an environmentally destructive coal mine. Based on in-depth qualitative interviews, I analyse how activists have created new meanings of the conflict to confront and delegitimize hegemonic discourses of capitalist development and modernity.
