中国信访法律传统及其现代影响

中国古代信访制度萌芽于原始社会末期,发展于西周至秦汉,基本完备于唐代。它所体现的"无讼"、"人治"等传统法律思想也伴随着中国社会的发展一直影响至今,当今社会信访问题已成为影响社会和谐稳定的一大因素。本文拟通过对信访的追根溯源,解读中国传统法律思想对当今中国信访制度产生的影响,以期从中找出促进现代法律文化建设的重要的现实价值。     

知识社会学能为中国法学研究带来什么

法律知识的研究是厘清中国特色的社会主义法制理论的构成、来源、基础、核心体系等根本问题的一个重要环节。知识社会学可以在分析法律知识的生产体制和创新机制、法律知识传统、法律知识的社会接受模式、法律知识与其它社会知识的整合等方面发挥重要作用。知识社会学在上述领域的渗入对具有中国特色的社会主义法制理论的健全与发展具有重要的现实意义。     

论我国一人公司的法律规制

随着市场经济和公司制度的发展,一人公司以自身的特点赢得了投资者的关注,并被许多国家所认可。一人公司已在实践中对我国《公司法》实施提出了挑战。实践中,一人公司大量存在,完全禁止绝无可能。为了我国市场经济和企业的科学发展,应从法律上对一人公司进行规制,确认一人公司的合法地位,并加以积极规范以趋利避害。

An empirical investigation of determinants of corporate social performance using multi-dimensional panel data analysis

An assessment of the determinants of corporate social performance (CSP) in emerging economies is still too fractured. This article contributes to general management literature by developing an empirical model based on the existing theoretical models rooted in neo-institutional theory (legitimacy approach), stakeholders management theory, agency theory, the resource-based view of the firm, slack resources argument, and managerial control theory. A robust, multidimensional, unweighted disclosure index was used to measure CSP. This article provides a methodologically and empirically more rigorous assessment of determinants of CSP compared to previous studies by performing panel data regression analysis on 307 firms for 10 years. The results reveal that the presence of a legal framework, board attributes (board size, board diversity, board interlocking), women on board, ownership pattern, financial performance, firm attributes (size, age, leverage), and industry characteristics affect CSP significantly. These findings provide very important clues to design pragmatic strategies to improve CSP.     

State engagement with non-state justice: how the experience in Kyrgyzstan can reinforce the need for legitimacy in Afghanistan

Currently there is a question of whether and how Afghanistan should engage non-state councils of elders to resolve disputes. In order to harness their benefits (e.g. efficiency), control their abuses (e.g. occasional controversial resolutions), and stabilize the resolution of disputes, some have argued that formal links should be established between the state judicial system and non-state councils of elders in Afghanistan. Others argue that mere informal links between the two systems should be established. Still others suggest that prior models of state engagement in Afghanistan should be revived. In Kyrgyzstan, just 65 miles north of Afghanistan, the Tsarist, Soviet and post-Soviet administrations have used various methods to engage non-state councils of elders. Despite these vastly different attempts at controlling local dispute resolutions, elders independently resolved disputes outside of Tsarist and Soviet control and continue to resolve disputes outside of post-Soviet state control in Kyrgyzstan. This phenomenon highlights the need for legitimacy in any models of state engagement that are considered for Afghanistan. If, as observed in Kyrgyzstan, people do not use state-sanctioned local councils in Afghanistan, then their purposes may be frustrated. Therefore, in addition to reviewing the experience with state engagement in other parts of the world, policy makers in Afghanistan should also review the historical and contemporary experience with state engagement in Kyrgyzstan. As the need for legitimacy is reconsidered and applied to the design of models for Afghanistan, it may be more likely that those models will be used by more people in Afghanistan and that their purposes will be furthered.     

法律现实主义与转型社会刑事司法

我国社会正处于转型期,各种社会矛盾凸显,刑事司法面临着新的挑战。西方的法律现实主义能为我国转型期刑事司法提供可资借鉴的方法论和改革思路。法律现实主义运动在批评形式主义与三段论式审判的基础上,把法律看作具有多重目标的社会引擎,关注司法行为、纠纷解决与社会问题。在中国语境下,引入法律现实主义,不是要简单地否定形式主义,而是应理性对待形式主义并在其中融入客观主义;应在刑事司法裁判中适用利益权衡,重视经验归纳而不拘泥于简单的演绎推理;应以实现社会正义为核心,构建合理衔接的多元纠纷解决机制。     

税务和解的正当性分析

税务和解现象之出现,缘于税务确认、税务处罚和税务诉讼过程中特定法律事实之缺失,其具有普遍性;税务事实之复杂性和税务实践之限制性的客观矛盾构成了税务和解的正当性基础;协商民主论、税收债法论以及既有执法领域的和解操作分别为税务和解提供了理论支撑和实践借鉴;税务和解的制度化可以消弭这一现象本身的异化倾向,从而实现税务和解在我国的正当化。     

再论法学对哲学诠释学的继受

法学对哲学诠释学的继受,存在着解构与建构两种不同的理论路向。为此,须明确法律诠释学对哲学诠释学进行继受的可能与限度。立足于本体论与方法论相统一的解释学立场,在建构意义上将法学方法论纳入哲学诠释学的理论框架中,诠释学的任务不仅仅在于对法学方法论进行反思,更在于实现诠释学思维的方法论转化,创建法学作为人文科学的方法论。诠释学反思导向法律意义的追问,必然引起法律概念论从实体本体论向关系本体论的革新。     

论社会主义法治理念在法学体系中的核心价值

法学体系中的社会主义法治理念,体现了政治法学的中国风格,是政治法学的中国化表达。社会主义法治理念既是一门课程,也可以培育成为一门相对独立的分支学科,它在法学体系中的位置可以得到清晰的界定。在我国20世纪80年代的课程设置与法学体系中,已经出现了社会主义法治理念的雏形;在西方国家的课程设置与法学体系中,也可以找到它的对应物。因此,社会主义法治理念在法学体系中的核心价值,就在于把中国的法学体系悬挂在中国政治的天花板上、连接在中国政治的火车头上,以促成法学体系与现实政治之间的血脉贯通。
