欧盟公司法创新与"准法"

欧盟公司法的国际化协调在涉及根深蒂固的文化传统领域遭遇立法僵局 ,绕道而行回避了一些敏感问题。90年代兴起的“准法”这种中间调节机制消融了这些坚冰 ,成为进一步走向融合与趋同的催化剂。     

Facial soft tissue depths in craniofacial identification (part II): An analytical review of the published sub-adult data

Prior research indicates that while statistically significant differences exist between subcategories of the adult soft tissue depth data, magnitudes of difference are small and possess little practical meaning when measurement errors and variations between measurement methods are considered. These findings raise questions as to what variables may or may not hold meaning for the sub-adult data. Of primary interest is the effect of age, as these differences have the potential to surpass the magnitude of measurement error. Data from the five studies in the literature on sub-adults which describe values for single integer age groups were pooled and differences across the ages examined. From 1 to 18 years, most soft tissue depth measurements increased by less than 3 mm. These results suggest that dividing the data for children into more than two age groups is unlikely to hold many advantages. Data were therefore split into two groups with the division point corresponding to the mid-point of the observed trends and main data density (0-11 and 12-18 years; division point = 11.5 years). Published sub-adult data for seven further studies which reported broader age groups were pooled with the data above to produce the final tallied soft tissue depth tables. These tables hold the advantages of increased sample sizes (pogonion has greater than 1770 individuals for either age group) and increased levels of certainty (as random and opposing systematic errors specific to each independent study should average out when the data are combined).     

论食品安全国际法律规制中的软法

食品安全国际法律规制中的软法主要表现为跨政府治理网络中的国际软法和有关国际组织制定的国际软法。前者是指不同国家的食品安全政府职能部门之间以双边备忘录等形式达成的非条约性协议。后者是指专业性国际组织、区域性国际组织和国际非政府组织制定的与食品安全相关的指导建议、行动计划、原则宣言和标准等国际文件。这些没有法律约束力但具有实际效力的国际软法在食品安全国际法律规制中发挥着独特的补充和辅助功能,理应引起我们的关注。     

新农村建设中基层政府执行力研究

社会主义新农村建设需要强有力的基层政府执行力。要全面增强新农村建设中的基层政府执行力,就必须培育新农村建设的政府执行力文化,明确新农村建设的政府执行力方向,建立规范的新农村建设的政府执行力流程,推行绩效考核,提高政府执行力的成效,强化对政府执行力的监督,加强队伍建设。     

中国海权发展战略问题的若干思考

从地缘政治的角度看,中国一方面要考虑陆地安全环境改善为相对集中力量发展海权提供的战略可能性,同时更要从海疆安全面临的压力考虑海权发展的必要性;在发展海权与综合国力的关系上,不应如何盘算降低本来已经非常低的海军国防投入,而是应该寻找思路提高海洋经济的综合国力贡献率,进而为海权发展提供动力;在海权发展与中国和平发展的关系上,中国海权的发展并不构成导致冲突并阻碍中国和平发展的结构性因素。     

东亚文化圈的形成、衰退与重建——以汉字的地位变迁为视角

东亚文化圈立根于魏晋,形成于隋唐,衰落于近代。在20世纪90年代后,又呈现出复兴之势。它是多元文化的结晶,主要包括汉字、儒学、律令和汉传佛教四个要素。汉字作为其他三个要素的传播承载工具,在文化圈形成发展中起了不可替代的作用。汉字在文化圈中的地位变迁见证了文化圈从形成发展、衰退削弱到复兴重建的过程。东亚文化圈的复兴重建,有利于中国文化"软实力"的增强,为当今中国与日韩等国的合作种植了文化根基,为东北亚区域合作构建了文化平台。     

营造云南旅游产业软环境的思考

政府主导下的软环境营造问题已经成为旅游产业发展的关键。云南在营造旅游社会环境方面发挥了积极的主导作用,取得了显著的成效。当前,要紧紧围绕转变政府职能、培育市场主体、健全法规体系和营造社会旅游氛围等四个方面,采取综合有效的措施营造云南旅游产业的发展软环境。     

Reforming the World Health Organization: what influence do the BRICS wield?

The World Health Organization (WHO) is currently undergoing fundamental reform that is intended to impact its programmes and priority setting and its financial and governing structures. Within the reform debates, new relations of powers are emerging among traditional donors and emerging economies such as the ‘BRICS’: Brazil, Russia, India, China and South Africa. These five emerging economies have formally committed ‘to strengthen and legitimise the WHO as the coordinating authority in global health’ through the principle of multilateralism. In this paper, the results of a qualitative study – based on 21 key informant interviews – that seeks to better understand BRICS’ engagement in this organisation and the extent to which their action enables these countries to influence the reform process were presented. The results show that individual BRICS countries found natural pairings with each other on both particular elements of the reform, notably governance and WHO financing, and specific health issues. While numerous examples of individual BRICS countries seeking to raise the profile of specific health issues were found, some evidence of a coordinated effort to influence reform as a bloc was also found. Although this was largely limited to rhetorical announcements of support in formal Declarations and Communiqués, it nevertheless articulates a vision of the WHO as an organisation with a broad mandate delivered with sufficient, predictable funding.     

制度性腐败成因及其破解——基于制度设计、制度变迁与制度约束

腐败的历史性、世界性和顽固性决定了腐败成为21世纪各国普遍关注和亟待解决的问题。我国经历了运动反腐、权力反腐和制度反腐的实践,良好的制度建设已成为我国治理腐败的关键。但多而快的制度建设不一定能减少腐败,制度建设过程中存在的"制度缺陷"、"制度漏洞"和"制度软约束"反而可能导致制度性腐败。本文在提出制度性腐败概念的基础上,从制度设计、制度变迁和制度约束三个角度对制度性腐败产生的原因进行了深刻的剖析,并就如何对制度性腐败进行破解提供了一定的解答。
