关于证券欺诈的诉讼时效研究

目前,我国关于证券欺诈类案件的诉讼时效适用于《民法通则》的一般诉讼时效为2年,最长时效不超过20年的规定,这种做法对复杂多变的证券交易行为不太适宜。本文在研究了国外证券发达国家有关证券诉讼时效的法律规定后,提出应采取不同于《民法通则》的规定,规定证券诉讼特别诉讼时效为1年,最长时效不超过5年,对特别情况可做例外规定。

Participation: the ascendancy of a buzzword in the neo-liberal era

Participation was originally conceived as part of a counter-hegemonic approach to radical social transformation and, as such, represented a challenge to the status quo. Paradoxically, throughout the 1980s and 1990s, ‘participation’ gained legitimacy within the institutional development world to the extent of achieving buzzword status. The precise manipulations required to convert a radical proposal into something that could serve the neo-liberal world order led to participation's political decapitation. Reduced to a series of methodological packages and techniques, participation would slowly lose its philosophical and ideological meaning. In order to make the approach and methodology serve counter-hegemonic processes of grassroots resistance and transformation, these meanings desperately need to be recovered. This calls for participation to be re-articulated within broader processes of social and political struggle in order to facilitate the recovery of social transformation in the world of twenty-first century capitalism.     

Restrictions on cryptography in India – A case studyof encryption and privacy

The developments of technology in communications industry have radically altered the ways in which we communicate and exchange information. Along with the speed, efficiency, and cost-saving benefits of the digital revolution come new challenges to the security and privacy of communications and information traversing the global communications infrastructure. As is with any technology the misuse of technology is noticed similarly the encryption technology. Encryption and other advanced technologies may be used, with direct impact on law enforcement and therefore some restrictions are necessary in the interests of national security. The problem, however, is ensuring that the restriction is legitimate and solely for in the interests of national security, the state not being allowed to interfere and keep a track on individuals' activities and private lives without sufficient cause. The individual needs encryption to protect their personal privacy and confidential data such as medical information, personal financial data, and electronic mail. In a networked environment, such information is increasingly at risk of being stolen or misused. Therefore, encryption is critical to building a secure and trusted global information infrastructure. Digital computers have changed the landscape considerably and the entire issue, at its simplest level, boils down to a form of balancing of interests. The specific legal and rights-related problems arising from the issue of cryptography and privacy in the Indian context are examined in this paper.

民商合一立法体例理论质疑

民法典总则的制定体例选择民商合一还是民商分立,其依据在于民法和商法的关系,民法与商法的精神理念、价值原则和制度规范均不相同,两种法律关系的异质性决定了不能制定一部调整所有民商事关系的民法典总则。民法典的固有功能在于规范市民社会关系,民商合一体例将民法典的调整功能扩展到合理性范围之外,是对于私法立法发展趋势的误判,在实践中没有成功先例。民法只能在自有逻辑和制度功能范围内回应商事领域的变化,无力指导商事特别法。商法规则进入民法总则会带来逻辑混乱和功能错位,因此,按照纯化的民法逻辑来构造民法典总则的内容和体系是理性选择。     

民事司法中的当事人闹鉴及其法律治理

自2005年起,国家启动了权力支配型的司法鉴定制度改革。然而未曾料想,当事人不满鉴定意见而到鉴定机构闹事的风气异军突起、且愈演愈烈。当事人闹鉴淋漓尽致地反映了当前转型中国政治法律背景下,鉴定场域中法院/官与社会鉴定机构/人的尴尬,且因为闹鉴立竿见影的效果,而诱导民事鉴定三重异化。治理民事闹鉴,国家理应超越既往,即过度注重对社会鉴定机构/人进行单一行政管控,而应建立以“诉讼规制”为中心的制度体系：规范法官的涉鉴行为,重铸法官对鉴定意见的决断权,建立可靠有效的鉴定争议解决机制与裁断是非对错的政治法律原则。同时,国家必须坚决而果断地惩戒违法犯罪之闹鉴者。     

政治文明视野下公民参与公共管理初探

公民政治参与是实现政治民主的保证。在我国,公民参与公共管理有法制保障、经济保障、文化保障和制度保障,但受一些因素影响,我国公民参与公共管理仍有不足。应当在增强公民政治参与的物质基础,构建公民文化,进行政治体制改革,积极培育第三部门建设等方面完善我国公民参与公共管理。     

我国侦查程序制度正当性问题探讨

我国的侦查程序制度在惩治犯罪方面发挥了重要作用,但在制度设计上,过分强化侦查对社会的控制功能,抑制了对自由价值的追求,正当性存在缺陷。完善我国侦查程序制度,应树立兼顾程序与实体正义,惩罚犯罪与保障人权的和谐统一的理念,明确赋予犯罪嫌疑人自我辩护权;建立司法授权和审查机制;完善侦讯过程中的平衡性;适当扩大辩护律师在侦查中的参与权;建立非法证据排除规则和侦查侵权的惩罚与救济机制。
