From privileged to thwarted stakeholders – Polish migrants’ perceptions of the Scottish Independence Referendum 2014 and the UK General Election in 2015

Scotland in 2014 and 2015 provides an ideal context for examining EU citizenship political rights as established in the Maastricht Treaty of 1993 from the perspective of Polish migrants resident in Scotland. We argue that the contrast between Polish migrants’ full enfranchisement in the Scottish Independence Referendum in 2014 to then being disenfranchised from the UK General Election in 2015 is a significant site for observing how EU laws interact with state-centric and also ‘post-national’ notions of citizenship. Our participants’ experiences of voting in the Referendum and subsequently not being able to vote in the General Election were articulated in the following terms: (a) the justification of their political rights in terms of their stake and contribution in the UK; (b) their frustrations with regards to anti-migration rhetoric and the limitations of European citizenship; and for some, (c) their plans of apply for British citizenship in the context of EU membership uncertainty.     

Public preferences and the challenge to genetic research policy

Modern genetic research requires scientists to collect, store, and study DNA samples and health information from thousands of people. Longstanding policy allows researchers to use samples and information without a person''s informed consent as long as the person''s identity is protected. Under existing policy, researchers must neither disclose study results to interested research participants nor compensate people who contribute to genetic research. Research and ethics experts developed these policy approaches without input from the people whose contributions are essential to the genetic research enterprise. A growing body of evidence shows that many research participants and would-be participants disagree with the current policy approaches. For ethical and practical reasons, participants should have a greater role in determining how genetic research is conducted.

Untimely Economies of Survival

This article takes the recent turn against hope in breast cancer activism as a point of entry into a broader examination of speculative economies of science that creatively imagine, materialize, and manage futures in the present. It argues that untimeliness – anticipatory, simultaneous, porous, and prognostic in its articulation – captures these alternate arrangements of life and action as they are mobilized in cancer research that hails healthy women as experimental subjects to participate in clinical studies.

略论孟子民本思想的当代价值

以孟子为代表的民本思想是中国传统政治文化中最具进步性的永恒的思想主题,它是以人民为国家政治本体的一种思想体系,是近现代民主的原初观念形态。民贵君轻、民心向背决定政治成败是孟子民本思想的基本理念。孟子为提倡民权提供了一条很好的思路,并提出了以保民、养民、富民、教民为基本内涵的民生主张。从这些政治理念中必将得出具有政治实践意义的结论：为政一切从人民利益出发,一切政治措施必须以人民的利益为归宿,否则就是离民背本。     

合资企业股权确认／变更争议为民事案件非行政案件——评最高人民法院（2002）民四终字第14号民事裁定书

中外合资/作经营企业股权确认及/或变更争议案件为平等主体之间的民商事案件,可以通过仲裁或民事诉讼得以解决.对此,人民法院不应裁定通过行政复议或者行政诉讼予以解决.行政机关不予审批的不作为行为以及当事人的意思自治是提起行政许可诉讼的两个基本要件.当事人对行政机关的正常行政许可行为不服不构成行政诉讼的标的,但构成行政复议的内容.当事人通过虚假或欺骗行为获得的行政许可,如本案的股权变更等,依法可通过向行政部门申请撤销得到补救.当事人只有在行政机关不作为不予撤销以欺骗行为获得的行政许可/审批时才应提起行政诉讼.
