The limits of local citizenship: administrative borders within the Italian municipalities

This article explores residency, a form of municipal membership that plays a strategic role in Italy. Residency is a formal status and a means to have access to rights. Therefore, it is a sort of local citizenship that, at least in part, equalises citizens and non-citizens. Due to its strategic role, many local authorities have paid serious attention to it recently. Municipalities have illegally tightened the requirements provided for by national laws for obtaining the status of resident or introduced new requirements. Stressing the different mechanisms of exclusion from residency, this article explains that they often work as administrative borders. These are bureaucratic barriers that, by denying residency, aspire to regulate, symbolically and sometimes materially, the composition of the people living within municipal territories and to redistribute rights between ‘deserving’ and ‘undeserving’ individuals. As such, administrative borders fragment individual statuses and provoke an increase in civic stratification.

Auditing party democracy: the case of Canadian party constituency associations

Political parties are often assessed on the basis of participatory democratic theory, which emphasises the importance of openness, inclusiveness, and responsiveness as the markers by which we can measure their democratic quality. This approach can be contrasted with competitive democratic theory that emphasises the centrality of fairness, transparency, and accountability to the democratic assessment of parties and other democratic actors. We apply these contrasting frameworks to a democratic audit of one set of party institutions and actors: the grassroots constituency associations maintained by Canadian parties. We illustrate how the outcomes of such assessments are deeply informed by the frameworks employed.     

Place Management at the City of Swan – A Whole‐of‐City Approach

Local government often consists of a diverse array of local communities, but remains ideally placed to work with communities in responding to challenges at a local ‘place’ level, as well as broader regional issues. The City of Swan, Western Australian (WA) recognised that it required a more adaptable and place focussed approach to the planning and delivery of services to its large and diverse communities. This has led to the adoption of a place management approach at the City, including the division of the City into five smaller place management areas, based around communities of shared interest. This article highlights the application of place management as it has been applied across the City of Swan, including lessons learnt to date.     

村民自治的历史嬗变--传统文化传承视角下的村民自治审视

传统乡村自治文化是在长期生存过程中对乡村居民生存境域进行深刻认识和对其生活经验进行系统总结后逐步形成的,蕴含着丰富的生存论方面的认识价值和实践方面的参考价值,对生存问题终极思考的永恒性使得传统和现代可以进行超越时空的对话。正是基于这样的原因,传统乡村自治文化中长期积聚的认识和经验在现代社会依然可以得到延续。通过对乡村自治文化进行历史审视和对其内涵做简要分析,发现传统乡村自治不仅出自乡村自我管理的现实需求,也源于教化及文化传承的精神需要,这就使得传统乡村自治文化在现代社会的超越性发展有了前提和基础,因此,深度挖掘传统村民自治中的优秀文化资源,积极探索其和现代村民自治的有效衔接途径,具有非常重要的现实意义。     

论地方政府效用选择驱动下的区域产业政策趋同

在区域经济的发展过程中,地方政府之间日益激烈的竞争必然会造成区域之间的产业政策趋同。这对于区域经济的协调发展和长远发展极为不利。该文提出化解问题的办法应当靠提高中央政府的宏观调控水平,强化地方政府的责、权、利边界,引导地方政府在区域产业政策中体现差异性。     

中美省、州级政府间应急管理协作比较研究--以“泛珠三角”和 EMAC 为例

当前,各类突发事件呈现出跨部门、跨区域的特点,由单一部门或地方政府来应对如此复杂的突发事件显然非常困难,因此应当破除传统“行政区行政”的治理理念,采取区域协同合作行为,发挥自身的优势,借助相互的资源,共同抵御灾难。我国应急管理政府间合作主要集中在省级政府,因此建立健全省级政府应急管理协作机制具有重要意义。通过比较研究我国的《泛珠三角区域内地九省（区）应急管理合作协议》与美国的《州际应急管理互助协议》（EMAC）在体制、法制和机制三个方面的差异,发现我国省级政府的应急管理行政合作协议存在缺乏独立权威的协调管理机构、缺乏法律保障和法律权威、跨区域应急预案体系与灾后补偿机制亟需完善、人才队伍建设任重道远等问题,要借鉴 EMAC 的先进经验,结合现实国情完善我国省级政府间应急管理协同合作。     

Chilean Constitutionalism Before Allende: Legality Without Courts

In the 1960s and early 1970s, two political movements in Chile, one led by Eduardo Frei and the other by Salvador Allende, achieved remarkable victories in presidential elections. They both vowed to bring about radical change within the framework of the law. Unfortunately, however, both administrations failed to achieve their objectives. This article, focusing on the 30-year period that preceded these two electoral victories, argues that Frei and Allende's seemingly inordinate faith in the virtues and flexibility of the legal system was firmly rooted in the political system and stemmed from a peculiar form of constitutionalism, which it describes as legality without courts.
