论开放的王权更迭观念及其与“五德终始说”之关系

“五德终始说”的一个重要思想源流是自古以来就形成的开放的王权更迭观念,可是历来的研究者对其少有探讨.所谓开放的王权更迭观念,实际属于中国古老的“德”文化传统的组成部分.这一文化传统萌芽于“五帝”时代,完善于西周,发展出“以德配天”的政治文化理论,再到春秋时期,又被总结为“社稷无常奉,君臣无常位”的历史文化常识,而到战国重建政治秩序的帝制再造时期,阴阳学派邹衍将这一价值观念植入“五行”学说之中,从而推导出“五德转移,治各有宜”的“五德”循环理论.     

预约保险合同与其项下航次保单的关系

预约保险合同与其项下航次保单紧密相连。当前有关预约保险合同与其项下航次保单关系的观点均存在一定不足。在任意型预约保险合同下,航次保单才是真正的保险合同;在义务型预约保险合同下,航次保单应视为双方对该航次保险内容的修正。结合我国国情和国际通行做法,建议将我国《海商法》相关内容修改如下：预约保险合同下的保险标的必须特定化、保险标的必须全部投保、申报必须依次进行、善意的漏报或误报可以进行矫正等。     

论夫妻一方婚内单独放弃继承的效力——兼评我国《继承法》第25条与《婚姻法》第17条

在夫妻关系存续期间,若被继承人未立遗嘱或所立遗嘱未明确表明遗产只归作为继承人的夫或妻一方,夫或妻可否在继承开始后、遗产分割前,不征得其配偶的同意而单独作出放弃继承的意思表示？对此,有两种相互冲突的观点,冲突的实质其实是法律规范的内部冲突,而问题产生的根源在于《婚姻法》第17条关于夫妻一方在婚姻关系存续期间因继承而获得的财产为夫妻共同财产的规定不当。鉴于此,应在将来的《婚姻法》修订中明确夫妻一方婚内继承的财产作为夫妻一方个人财产。     

Progressing with the reform and opening up: Retrospective of China’s civil law (1978–2008)

Over the past 30 years, Chinese civil and commercial law has made great achievements in providing theoretical support for Chinese legislation, establishing a theoretical system of civil and commercial law with Chinese characteristics, conducting in-depth and comparative research in this field, and making many summaries of trial practices, judicial interpretations and case studies of civil and commercial affairs. The academic circle has expressed professional comments regarding public events. The major theoretical breakthroughs include the clarification of the relationship between civil law and economic law, further research on the civil code system, basic consensus on the integration of civil law and commercial law, formation of the theoretical system of property right law with Chinese characteristics, innovation and development of contract law theories, basic information of personality law theories, and formation of the theoretical system of tort law.

社会主义国家改革开放的历史启示

二十世纪八十年代后期,面对国际国内新形势,社会主义国家掀起了一股改革浪潮。然而,改革的旗帜下却出现了两种截然不同的结果。一方面,东欧剧变,苏联解体,改革发展为＂易帜＂。而中国、越南、老挝、古巴、朝鲜的改革开放则实现了社会主义理论与实践的重大突破,为当代世界社会主义运动的发展提供了宝贵的成功经验与启示。总结这些经验与启示对于推动社会主义继续向前稳步、快速发展有着重要意义。

Simulated foreign policy exchanges: A formal theory of foreign policy interaction (part II)

This article presents the underlying rationale for a theory of foreign policy dynamics, and is the second part of a two‐part series which specifies a theoretical perspective for explaining the exchanges between nations. The task of the first paper was to discuss the substantive thrust of the research, and to give a view of the Monte Carlo simulation which lies at its core. The theory deals with the relevance of such concepts as reciprocity, uncertainty, third party effects, bureaucratic politics and domestic events for explaining foreign policy. This article provides the axioms which structure our theory and formal theorems that follow from these axioms.     

40 YEARS OF CHINESE REFORM AND OPENING UP ALONGSIDE CHINESE CONSTITUTIONAL STUDY

China has a long history of constitutional jurisprudence, bearing different academic missions in different eras.

Knowledge Management and Open Innovation in United Kingdom Local Authorities

The article examines the performance of UK local authorities in relation to knowledge management and open innovation. Data were acquired using a mail survey of non-metropolitan local authorities in England and Wales. The results indicate that certain factors influence the effectiveness of the knowledge management process. Authorities engaged in open innovation have developed more effective knowledge management processes. Hence, of instead of implementing a strategy solely based upon cutting services and reducing staffing levels, local authorities seeking to survive in the face of government spending cuts might also consider the benefit from optimizing the effectiveness of their knowledge management processes and participation in open innovation.
