中国农村最低生活保障的现状、问题及其成因

经过近几年的发展，中国在推行农村最低生活保障制度上已取得了一定成果，但无论在制度建设还是在实践环节都还存在诸多问题，该文对这些问题的成因进行了分析。     

江泽民党建思想研究：回顾与展望

在江泽民党建思想的研究中,我们应加强比较研究工作。要加强研究的系统性和纵深性,对江泽民党建思想作出全面、细致的梳理,弥补目前研究中无专著的缺憾。还应在理论体系构建上多下工夫。     

消极身份犯概念之考量

身份犯是刑法中一类较为特殊的犯罪,之所以“特殊”,是因为这类犯罪的构成要件中对犯罪主体往往有一定的限制。对身份犯的研讨不仅关乎身份犯自身体系的建构,而且与共犯与身份问题的解决也密切相连。但是,我国学者在身份犯概念这一基本问题上的研究则显得多少有点混乱。因此,对我国传统刑法理论中的身份犯概念进行反思,重构身份犯之应然概念,实属当务之急。     

“宪政是民主政治”论对宪政的负面影响

"宪政是民主政治"是一个在我国广为流传的、在理论上有缺陷的、对当代中国的宪政建设实践也有负面影响的传统宪政定义."宪政是民主政治"论在理论上的主要缺陷有:它偏离了宪政的主要价值目标;它不能解释民主"异化"为"多数暴政"的问题;它不能解释"有民主,无宪政"的历史事实;它把民主作为宪政概念的唯一构成要素是理论上的独断."宪政是民主政治"论对当代中国宪政建设实践的负面影响主要是:它阻碍了我国宪政分权制度的确立;它阻碍了我国违宪审查制度的建立;它妨碍了宪政观念在我国社会的传播.因此,中国要建设真正意义上的宪政国家就必须修正或放弃"宪政是民主政治"论.     

Weak and Ineffective? Reassessing the Party Political Leadership of John Major

Interpretations on the party political leadership of John Major are dominated by perceptions of weakness and ineffectiveness. This article examines his party political leadership by considering the relationship between, first, his political ambitions, and, second, his style of political leadership. When evaluating the political ambitions of Major, the article will demonstrate that he was ideologically agnostic and a political pragmatist. When examining his party political leadership style, the article will demonstrate, via an examination of his management of the European policy divide and his Cabinet management, that he was politically indecisive and an avoider of political confrontation. The article concludes, however, that perceptions of his weakness and ineffectiveness should be contextualised due to the following two factors: first, the constraints of inheriting an ideologically divided parliamentary Conservative party; and, second, the contrasting circumstances that ensured that his predecessor and successor appeared strong and effective, which have magnified perceptions of his weakness and ineffectiveness.     

我国诱惑侦查之现状及法律规制

诱惑侦查是指侦查人员设置圈套或诱饵,暗示或诱使侦查对象暴露其犯罪意图并实施犯罪行为,待犯罪行为实施时或结果发生后,拘捕被诱惑者。作为一种特殊的侦查形式,因其成功侦破特殊类型的犯罪案件的高效性而在我国得到越来越多的运用。但这一侦查手段在实践运用中存在许多问题。我们可借鉴国外的法理和实践,从侦查目的、侦查模式及法治化要求的角度对诱惑侦查全面分析,并对其有效规范和制约,以更好地发挥其作用,规避其危险性。     

中国共产党社会主义民主理论的发展

民主是随着国家的产生而出现的,它同许多政治现象一样,本身也有一个发展变化的过程。马克思主义经典作家在建立马克思主义国家学说和探索无产阶级民主的过程中,对民主有过深入的研究,多层次多侧面地论述过民主问题,对民主的内涵作出了科学的解释。毛泽东关于社会主义民主政治建设的一系列思想观点,对我国的社会主义民主政治建设起了巨大的指导作用,丰富和发展了马克思主义的民主理论。在社会主义建设的新时期,邓小平、江泽民和胡锦涛同志则把中国特色社会主义民主理论和民主政治建设推向了一个新阶段。     

结合新的实际深化对马克思劳动价值论的认识

现代科学技术的发展,使科学技术和人的智力在生产中的作用与以往根本不同,使生产要素在价值形成中的作用发生了重大变化。社会主义市场经济的建立和发展,使按生产要素分配成为今天的现实。这些变化为我们今天的实践提出许多重大的理论和实际问题,我们必须按照江泽民同志“七一”讲话的要求,在新的历史条件下,结合时代特点,深化对马克思劳动和劳动价值论的认识。     

坚持从严治党巩固执政地位

学习江泽民同志“七一”重要讲话 ,认识苏联、东欧共产党丧失政权的教训 ,分析我党巩固执政地位的优势和面临的考验 ,提出按照“三个代表”要求 ,从严治党 ,加强党风廉政建设 ,保持党和国家长治久安的落实措施。     

Testing a Model of Resistance to Peer Pressure Among Mexican-Origin Adolescents

This study examined the factors associated with resistance to peer pressure toward antisocial behaviors among a sample of Mexican-origin adolescents (n=564) living in a large Southwestern city in the U.S. A model examining the influence of generational status, emotional autonomy from parents, and self-esteem on resistance to peer pressure was tested independently for boys and girls. Gender differences emerged in the factors that influenced resistance to peer pressure. Results indicated that resistance to peer pressure was influenced by generational status and emotional autonomy from parents for both boys and girls. However, self-esteem was found to influence resistance to peer pressure only for boys.Mayra Y. Bámaca is a graduate student in Family and Human Development at Arizona State University. Her research interests include adolescent development among ethnically diverse populations, the influence of contextual factors in development, parenting adolescents, and resiliency among Latino adolescents and their families. This work was based on the master’s thesis of the first author.Adriana J. Uma?a-Taylor received her Ph.D. from the University of Missouri-Columbia and is currently an Assistant Professor of Family and Human Development at Arizona State University. Her research interests include ethnic identity formation during adolescence and resilience among Latino adolescents and their families.This study was supported, in part, by a grant to the second author from the Fahs Beck Fund for Research and Experimentation of the New York Community Trust.
