人与自然关系视阈中的社会和谐

社会主义和谐社会所寻求的是人与人，人与社会以及人与自然之间的三重维度的和谐，其中人与自然之间的和谐占有极其重要的地位，它是人与人、人与社会之间的和谐得以确立的前提，因此，构建社会主义和谐社会有赖于人与自然之间和谐关系的确立。当代中国社会发展所面临的严峻的生态环境挑战，不仅制约着社会经济的健康持续发展，也在很大程度上影响着人与人之间、人与社会之间的和谐关系，从而使重塑人与自然之间的和谐关系成为一项极其迫切的重大战略任务。

The Bonn Agreement to the Kyoto Protocol – Paving the Way for Ratification

This article provides a short account of the international climate negotiations that took place in Bonn from 16 to 27 July 2001. After the Sixth Conference of the Parties to the Framework Convention on Climate Change failed in November 2000, the Parties had decided to suspend the meeting. The ministers present at the resumed session successfully adopted the "Bonn Agreement to the Kyoto Protocol", a set of political compromises for the most contentious issues left open by the Kyoto Protocol. Although many details had been transferred to the Seventh Conference of the Parties, November 2001 in Marrakesh, Morocco, the Bonn Agreement already paved the way for ratification of the Kyoto Protocol and its entry into force. The Marrakesh Accord adopted on 10 November 2001transforms, with a few exceptions, this political agreement into bindinglegal text.     

Kyoto,Europe?—An Economic Evaluation of the European Emission Trading Directive

To meet its obligations accepted in the Kyoto Protocol cost effectively, the European Union introduces a scheme of Greenhouse Gas Allowance Trading for its member states. This paper evaluates the cost effectiveness, ecological accuracy and dynamic incentives of this approach.The EU-emissions trading constitutes an important shift in the paradigm of environmental policy, from command and control to a market based approach. Still, the EU-system does not fully realize the economic potential of the transferable discharge permit policy. Especially, the limited scope of trading regarding geography, pollutants, sectors and activities reduces the quality of the system. Moreover, the EU-Directive is unspecific in many respects and it leaves many decisions defining the rules of the game to the individual member state. Uncertainty and heterogeneity increase transaction cost and thereby hamper the effectiveness of the system.JEL Classification: Q54, Q58, K32     

What Role for Private Rule-Making in Global Environmental Governance? Analysing the Forest Stewardship Council (FSC)

This article assesses the recent trend of rule-making by private multi-stakeholder initiatives – a hitherto largely unnoticed phenomenon in global environmental governance – by analysing the multiple functions and impacts of the Forest Stewardship Council (FSC), one of the best-known private institutions in global environmental politics. After clarifying the general context of private governance, I turn to the specific function of private rule-making institutions. I argue that rule-making can be understood as the act of agreeing on both constitutive and regulative rules that prescribe the behaviour of a specific group of actors, whether individuals or organisations. Further, I argue that the FSC, as one example of private rule-making in world politics, performs three additional functions that shape the contours of global governance: (1) facilitating a solution to complex multi-interest problems, (2) brokering knowledge and norms among a wide range of stakeholders, and (3) constituting a learning network in environmental governance.     

独立的环境法益论

独立的环境法益是否该当,争议较多。修正的环境法益理论认为基于传统环境功利主义和人类中心主义价值观上“完备”的环境立法还缺乏独立的环境法益的保护。生态的环境理论基于自然存在的客观性认为生态的伦理学是“生态”(自然存在)与“伦理学”(社会性存在)的结合,在该结合体系下,人处于自然序列而非当然的“统治者”。如此一来,独立的环境法益的存在便只需要法规范的认可了。     

“污染者负担原则”的法理分析

环境危机直接催生了环境保护与环境法,针对环境污染者的责任追求问题,随着对环境问题的认识不断深化最终演进为"污染者负担原则".这一原则的确立是与环境侵权的特点紧密联系的.如果试着对环境侵权的"污染者负担原则"作出法经济学分析有利于我们更好地理解其实质和重要性,而一些具体的制度安排则有力保障了"污染者负担原则"的落实和发挥实效.
