The Effects of a Police/Victim Assistance Crisis Team Approach to Domestic Violence

A police/victim assistance crisis intervention program was evaluated over a 6-month period for its effect on police-related outcomes. Police report data on crisis team cases (N = 96) were compared to a random selection of family violence cases (N = 80) that were not served by the crisis team. The crisis team cases generated more arrests; however, victim cooperation was lower than in noncrisis intervention cases. Implications for work with family violence and victim assistance are discussed, as well as needs for future research.     

社会法视角下的经济法探析

在"法律的社会化背景"之下,社会法兴起并不断发展壮大,逐渐成为了独立于公法和私法之外的第三法域。经济法和社会法在社会本位、调节手段等多方面有着契合之处,针对中国经济法发展中所存在的国家本位倾向和权力干预扩张的特性,社会法的社会本位思想及社会自治的调整手段等众多特点,对经济的发展无疑有着指导和借鉴价值。     

对“国家干预”的逻辑解析——基于经济法的视角

The Political Economy of State Failure: A Social Contract Approach

By employing the contract approach of state theory, this article provides a conceptual framework for the analysis of state failure phenomena which puts the emphasis on structural conditions as the root cause of state fragility and state failure. The article argues that the deep social fragility of some post-colonial societies, augmented by self-serving external interventions by foreign powers, is at the heart of their failure. Deep social fragility makes societies unable to cooperate and thus renders them powerless to discipline their leaders. Meanwhile, by linking leadership survival to the decisions and policies of a self-serving foreign power, intervention provides flawed incentives to the state leaders, which increases their predatory behaviour. In such situations, state leaders, rather than strengthening formal state institutions, again intensify the collective action problem and increase social fragility as mechanisms for survival.     

Onwards and Sidewards? The Curious Case of the Responsibility to Protect and Mass Violence in Africa

This article approaches Responsibility to Protect (R2P) from the ground up. Selecting African cases of mass atrocity in the age of R2P, it identifies key general features of contemporary violence. The article goes on to consider the nature and extent of R2P practice in each case. The argument is that R2P engagements in these conflicts display a mixture of weakness and irrelevance. The result of this is that R2P has failed significantly to reduce human suffering in any of the cases dealt with. The article notes that this clear failure does not seem to perturb the mainstream of academic R2P discourses, which, although critical at times, remain confident that R2P is making some difference and represents the best way forward. The article explores how this kind of discourse is propounded in the scholarly work on R2P. This leads us towards an argument that R2P as a discourse and international project can run in parallel with continuing mass suffering in African civil wars without being profoundly troubled.

Violent men’s paths to batterer intervention programmes: masculinity,turning points and narrative selves

Drawing on interviews with voluntary participants in intervention programmes for perpetrators of intimate partner violence in Sweden, the present article analyses violent men’s turning-point stories, that is, their narratives of deciding to start and starting treatment. Three types of turning-point stories are identified: narratives that describe men recognizing their violence either before or during treatment, and narratives of returning to treatment. Through these stories, the men not only present reasons for joining therapy, but also produce gendered narrative selves. In particular they present themselves as morally ‘good’ and self-conscious men by simultaneously acknowledging their abusive behaviour and distancing themselves from being violent men.     

社会财富的"第三次分配"及其法律调整

以慈善捐赠事业为主要内容的"第三次分配"在促进我国财富分配的社会公平、增强社会凝聚力和构建和谐社会等方面发挥着十分重要的作用。所谓"第三次分配"是指个人或企业出于自愿,把可支配收入的一部分捐赠出去,建立社会救助、民间捐赠、慈善事业、志愿者行动等多种形式的制度和机制,以实现社会财富的重新配置。近年来,我国慈善事业虽然有了很大发展,但与国外慈善事业发达国家相比,差距仍然很大。"第三次分配"具有民间自发性,但这并不表明政府是无所作为的。政府的作用主要是通过立法加强"第三次分配"的引导,为其创造一个宽松的法制环境,这也是政府义不容辞的责任。而在加强"第三次分配"的法律引导方面,应当充分发挥包括民间法、民法、国家政策法在内的法律的协同调整作用。     

劳动关系的选择性干预与集体劳动关系的制度逻辑

随着经济社会发展、产业结构演变、劳资力量对比变化,应当加强集体劳动关系的法律调整.但目前的劳动法制存在对劳动关系的选择性干预,即对个体劳动关系规制过度,而对集体劳动关系干预不足.主要原因在于我国所处的经济发展阶段、劳动法制完善程度、集体劳动关系调整目标的多元化等.应当完善劳动法及其配套规定,使集体劳动关系有法可依；明确...
