领导干部宪政意识之现状、成因及对策研究

宪政是以良宪为基础,民主为基石,法治为载体,人权实现为宗旨的一种政治理念、政治形态或政治过程。中国正走在通向宪政的路上,可是要实施宪政,必先要研究宪政意识,特别是领导干部的宪政意识;因为宪政意识是实现和实行宪政的思想基础,也是进行宪政建设的思想条件。本文着重分析了领导干部宪政意识薄弱的四大表现,并对其深层原因作了探寻。最后,对如何培育和提升领导干部宪政意识提出了对策建议。     

试论死刑的价值

死刑作为一种与阶级社会相伴生的法律现象,数千年来一直是刑罚体系的重要组成部分。但近两个世纪,死刑存废的论争在全世界刑法学界展开。这一论争的意义已超出了死刑这一刑罚方式本身,其结果势必影响到刑事立法和司法。我国对死刑应予保留,但其适用应予严格限制。     

The Challenge of Providing Culturally and Linguistically Accessible Human Services in Rural and Increasingly Diverse Communities

Abstract

This paper uses a case study of one small rural community in New England to educate social workers, other human service professionals on linguistic, cultural accessibility issues with clients who have Limited English Proficiency (LEP). The relevant civil rights law, case law, federal guidelines, which form a framework of protection for persons with LEP are presented, used as a mirror to which human service efforts to meet linguistic, cultural accessibility are held. Finally, strategies for small rural communities with multiple small populations of persons with LEP are presented.     

Limited Liability: Large Company Theory and Small Firms

Current enthusiasm for the 'enterprise culture' results in strong support for easy access to limited liability forms of business organisation. This has manifested itself in the creation of new limited liability vehicles such as the LLC and the LLP. The UK Company Law Review is examining ways of enhancing the attractiveness of the limited liability company to small business owners. This article examines the claims made for the 'efficiency' of limited liability and the applicability of these claims to small firms. It raises the importance of taking into account public policy issues beyond economic efficiency when considering the degree of risk taking and shifting to be encouraged. The article concludes that, although it is difficult to find rational methods of restricting access to limited liability, it does not follow that limited liability should be positively encouraged for all small firms. It is important to signal the limitations of limited liability.     

论行政精神

行政精神是客观存在的,只不过它是一种观念性存在。行政精神是以理性累积的方式形成,并展开自己的丰富内容,记忆成为行政精神形成的隐蔽机制。作为一种观念性存在,行政精神在历史中最先呈现出来的是科学精神。价值精神也成为行政精神不可缺少的一面。价值性与科学性以螺旋式结构、交替上升的形式共同对行政管理实践发挥作用。在实现治理现代化的进程中我们需要同时注重科学性与价值性,在行政管理的建构中,使二者能够有效结合,并找到结合的具体形式。     

论一人公司的风险控制--兼评新《公司法》有关一人公司的规定

一人公司的生命力使一人公司能得到新《公司法》的明文认可。新《公司法》对控制一人公司风险的规定存在缺陷,解决缺陷的途径是建立实质一人公司规制制度和自己交易行为规制制度,从而实现对一人公司的风险控制,即保护一人公司债权人的债权。     

我国人力资本出资的若干法律问题

我国人力资本出资在法律上是否具有可行性,理论界一直持否定态度,认为人力出资存在评估上的困难,以及无法保障交易安全从而损害债权人利益。应当说,以此为理由是片面的,因为这种状况在其他出资方式上同样是存在的,但并没有影响法律对此加以肯定。至于人力资本出资者的有限保证责任,则违背了公平原则。人力资本出资者应当享有有限责任,同时可用公示制度来平衡出资者与债权人的利益。     

UNBUNDLING THE ETHICAL ISSUES OF PRO BONO ADVOCACY: ARTICULATING THE GOALS OF LIMITED‐SCOPE PRO BONO ADVOCACY FOR LIMITED LEGAL SERVICES PROGRAMS

This article seeks to articulate the practical goal of unbundled legal services for the pro bono family law sector as it applies to limited legal services programs (also known as brief advice clinics), through the use of a goal spectrum, derived from the theoretical goal of access to justice. This article briefly discusses the status of the Indiana Rules of Professional Conduct, as they pertain to the ethics of unbundling. This article then focuses extensively on some practical considerations within the ethical issues of both the scope of representation and attorney competence in order to articulate an appropriate goal for unbundled legal services. Finally, the article concludes that service providers in limited legal services programs should explicitly identify and then perform an essential, discrete service that the client needs to have performed in order to help the client meet his or her ultimate objectives. The service provider and the client could then gauge the success of the limited scope representation based on whether and how well the specific service has been provided.     

美国的限权宪法模式及其民主性困境——试论美国宪政文明的二元个性

在改造英国议会主权的基础上,美国形成限权宪法的模式。这一模式的特点之一在于以司法机关制约立法机关,形成司法审查的制度,但亦造成民主性困境。宪政与民主之间的张力凸显了美国宪政文明的二元个性。     

《古诗十九首》之女性形象——思妇的此岸形象与彼岸意义

“古诗十九首”的女性形象有广狭义之分:广义的女性形象包容了其中不同阶层,不同背景的女性,狭义的女性形象是其中出现最频繁的思妇(本文所指)。思妇“万千风情在一身”的姿态是读者无法抗拒而心怀倾慕的此岸性存在,她的表现意识和个体心灵效应是升华的体验性的彼岸意义。在此岸形象浮出水面并得以深化的同时,彼岸意义也随着思维的扩散趋向于异样的空间。思妇形象是对人生软弱心理的普遍概括,浸透着生命苍凉的悲感,获得了震撼人心的审美效果。
