刑事附带民事诉讼精神损害赔偿制度之思考

为了切实保障被害人的合法权益,以刑代赔,仅仅给予公法的保护是远远不够的,精神损害赔偿制度已纳入了我国民事法律的调整范围。为了协调法律体系内部的矛盾,也使被害人的利益得到最好的保护,应尽快建立起刑事附带民事诉讼精神损害赔偿制度。     

网络服务提供者的侵权责任——以《侵权责任法》第36条第2款、第3款为中心

《侵权责任法》第36条第2款、第3款对网络用户直接侵权时,网络服务提供者承担连带责任的情形进行了规范。但这两款内容过于原则,需要运用解释论的方法予以细化。第36条关于网络服务提供者侵权责任的规定要在权利人、社会公众、网络服务提供者之间达到更为合理的平衡,有待将来的司法解释进行完善。     

宪法中的任免权之“免”

宪法中的任免权包括＂任＂和＂免＂两个方面,＂任＂是＂免＂的前提,但＂免＂不是＂任＂的必然,而只是其可能的结果。＂免＂的主体有时是由谁＂任＂即由谁＂免＂,有时＂任＂和＂免＂不完全统一（有四种情况）;＂免＂的对象一般是最高国家机关的主要成员;＂免＂的形式有罢免、弹劾、免去等;在＂免＂的程序中,罢免程序主要体现的是民主性,弹劾程序则更强调司法性,后者通常比前者严格。     

云南禁吸戒毒模式法制化研究

禁吸戒毒法制化建设是一项重要工作,通过立法的方式确定禁吸戒毒的目的、原则、方式、程序以及救济,对禁吸戒毒工作进行制度化建设,保证禁吸戒毒工作的规范和统一,这是我国依法治国方针在禁吸戒毒工作领域的具体体现,既是禁吸戒毒工作的重要依托,又是禁吸戒毒工作的开展依据.     

北京城管综合执法情况的初步调查

相对集中行政处罚权是《行政处罚法》确立的一项重要制度。城市管理综合执法是相对集中行政处罚权的产物。我国目前尚未出台一部系统的相对集中行政处罚权实施法规。相对集中行政处罚权的行使在不同的地区或城市存在较大的差异,也暴露出很多问题。建议及时总结14年来北京城管执法工作,加强城管综合执法研究,深化依法行政。     

论社区矫正制度与我国刑法的进一步完善

《刑法修正案（八）》在法律上正式确立了社区矫正制度。但是,《刑法修正案（八）》中关于社区矫正制度的规定仍存在诸多缺憾。随着社区矫正工作的深入发展与推进,作为司法体制和工作机制改革的重要内容,对我国刑法加以进一步完善已成为必然的选择。对于《刑法修正案（八）》中确立的社区矫正制度有必要从立法上作进一步的完善：一是应当在刑法中明确社区矫正的执行主体为司法行政机关;二是应当在刑法中明确社区矫正的适用范围为目前试行中的＂五种人＂,即被判处管制、被宣告缓刑、被暂予监外执行、被裁定假释以及被剥夺政治权利并在社会上服刑的五种罪犯;三是应当在刑法中确立社区矫正前的社会调查制度,明确调查评估主体和社会调查报告的内容及在刑事司法中的作用。     

Rape Shield Laws and Sexual Behavior Evidence: Effects of Consent Level and Women’s Sexual History on Rape Allegations

Rape shield laws, which limit the introduction of sexual history evidence in rape trials, challenge the view that women with extensive sexual histories more frequently fabricate charges of rape than other women. The present study examined the relationship between women's actual sexual history and their reporting rape in hypothetical scenarios. Female participants (college students and a community sample, which included women working as prostitutes and topless dancers, and women living in a drug and alcohol rehabilitation center) imagined themselves in dating scenarios that described either a legally definable act of rape or consensual sexual intercourse. Additionally, within the rape scenarios, level of consensual intimate contact (i.e., foreplay) preceding rape was examined to determine its influence on rape reporting. Women were less likely to say that they would take legal action in response to the rape scenarios if they had extensive sexual histories, or if they had consented to an extensive amount of intimate contact before the rape. In response to the consensual sexual intercourse scenarios, women with more extensive sexual histories were not more likely to say that they would report rape, even when the scenario provided them with a motive for seeking revenge against their dating partner.     

论弱势群体的界定——兼论弱势群体保护制度与社会保障制度的区别

弱势群体保护问题的理论基础在于保障人的实质平等权和发展权,社会保障制度则以保障生存权为基础;弱势群体首先是一个社会学范畴,它泛指那些在实现基本权利的手段上面临困难最大的群体;鉴于社会保障制度和弱势群体保护制度在制度理念、基本原则和保护对象上存在差异,因此,社会保障对象与弱势群体是两个不同的范畴,二者范围不同。     

Charging children with child pornography – Using the legal system to handle the problem of “sexting”

No one would disagree that the purposes and aims of child pornography laws are legitimate and necessary. Recently, however, these laws, which have the ostensible aim of protecting children, are instead being used to punish children and dissuade the new phenomenon of “sexting” in the United States. “Sexting” refers to the use of mobile phones with built-in cameras to produce and distribute images of oneself in a sexually provocative or revealing position. The potential danger that this trend poses to minors is huge. Photographs produced by the use of “sexting” can be distributed to unintended third parties, often leading to embarrassment and harassment. Moreover, senders are also in danger of being charged with possession and distribution of child pornography, regardless of the fact that they are minors and the pictures are often of themselves. Not only is charging minors with child pornography a rather new phenomenon, it also appears to be a strategy that several states are adopting. This paper will look at the growing trend of charging minors who engage in “sexting” with child pornography charges by a case study of an actual prosecution, what the consequences of such a conviction entails in the United States, legislative responses, and an analysis of the appropriateness of using the legal system as a way of dealing with this problem.
