十六大以来党的生态文明建设思想探析

十六大以来,党的生态文明建设思想的形成和发展经历了准备酝酿、明确提出和科学定位三个历史阶段。生态文明建设思想的实现路径主要有五个方面。其中,调整经济结构和转变经济增长方式是根本途径,建设资源节约型和环境友好型社会是实践平台,建立健全法律法规和制度体系是坚实保障,扩大国际生态环境合作和交流是重要内容,强化宣传教育和扩大社会参与是重要方法。     

论法律的保守性

法律自身的发展规律决定了保守性是法律的本性，除去政治上的原因，这是由于人行为预期的需要、形成并维持秩序稳定的需要以及确立和维持法律权威的需要。法律的保守性要求国家在制定法律时，必须充分考虑社会传统和现状；修改法律时，以审慎的态度；适用法律时，严格在现有的法律框架下进行。清醒认识法律的保守本性对中国的法治建设意义重大。     

城市供水安全分析及对策研究

城市供水是城市基础设施的重要组成部分,供水安全直接关系到城市的发展水平。随着我国城市化战略的加快实施,在水资源紧缺、水质污染加剧、突发水污染日益频繁的形势下,城市供水安全问题已不容忽视。本文分析了我国城市供水存在的主要问题,并以开源节流加强保护为原则提出了安全保障对策。     

文化遗产廊道构建的理论与实践——以滇藏茶马古道为例

文化遗产廊道是国际遗产保护界内专门针对大尺度、跨区域、综合性线状文化遗产保护的新思维与新方法。面对滇藏茶马古道屡遭破坏的严重事实,构建文化遗产廊道保护战略将茶马古道及古道上的遗产单体纳入区域性整体保护体系是极其重要且必要的。以遗产廊道理论为基础,文化遗产廊道在概念、内涵及建构模式方面形成自身的理论框架,在此框架下,须采取多项措施保障以滇藏茶马古道为对象而进行的文化遗产廊道的构建实践,以期为我国类似于茶马古道的线状遗产保护提供有效借鉴。     

渔权之争：论双边渔业协定应考量的若干问题

两国订立双边渔业协定涉及到多个方面的问题,不仅需要考虑管理和执法的便利,也需要兼顾渔民历史作业习惯与传统的渔区;不仅需要公平分配捕捞配额,更需要考虑各自的捕捞能力、渔业资源的养护以及可持续的利用;不仅要因应当前的渔业纠纷,还要考虑对于今后海域划界可能产生的影响;不仅要与国内相关立法协调,还要与国际社会既存的硬法、软法配套;不仅要考虑渔业自身的因素,还需要考虑对于航行、海难救助、海底探矿与采矿、科学研究、水下考古等活动的可能的影响.只有兼顾和平衡各方因素与利益的协定,才可能真正定纷止争.     

儒家文化与山东女性性格的优化

儒家文化是中华民族传统文化的正统和母体,齐鲁大地是儒家文化的发源地和辐射源,山东女性的性格深受儒家文化的影响;保守、内向、凝重的道德感、整体为上的价值取向与自强不息的人生追求构成了山东女性性格的基本特色。儒家文化脱胎于传统的农耕文明,有着与生俱来的局限性。实现现代化,山东女性的性格需要优化。以创新的意识、开放的心态、自主的精神、自我实现与优雅精致的生活来优化性格,当是山东女性面向现代化的选择。

A simple and inexpensive molecular method for sexing and identification of the forensic samples of elephant origin

The population of the Asian elephant is being dramatically reduced due to poaching of the ivory from the male. As poaching occurs in remote forests, it often takes weeks or longer for it to be discovered and it is therefore often very difficult to determine the sex of the decomposed body. Data suggest that in the recent past, over 2000 male elephants have been poached in South India. We have developed a technique based on molecular markers to determine that the carcass is an elephant and that it is a male. Using DNA sequence information from Genbank, we have developed two primer pairs: one for the mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) and the other for the sex-determining region of Y chromosome (SRY) gene of the Indian elephant. After PCR amplification of known elephant DNA, we found that the mtDNA was common in both males and females, whereas the SRY-specific amplicon was observed only in the male.     

Gauging support for innovative farmland preservation techniques

Given growing concerns about the loss of farmland in the US, governmental and nonprofit groups are seeking innovative, cost-effective methods to preserve lands that will elicit additional landowner participation. This article describes four innovative farmland preservation techniques and derives implications for the policy process through interviews of key stakeholders: program administrators, lawmakers, and landowners. Experts on farmland preservation were also interviewed to ensure stakeholder perceptions substantively inform the policy process. Four techniques were selected for assessment from approximately 30 novel techniques. Reactions to these policy options reflect stakeholder perceptions of a baseline condition; the perceptions help evaluate which options are likely to survive the policy process and what attributes will lead to their acceptability because few of these techniques have yet become policy. Although the stakeholders may have more limited experience with the policy process, land preservation experts validated many of the results and the possibility of success in the “rough and tumble” of the policy process. Of the four investigated techniques rights of first refusal was the most favored, although respondents thought effective implementation would require careful targeting and a dedicated funding source. Experts agreed this technique was most likely to survive in the political arena. Agricultural conservation pension was also viewed favorably, though it was considered administratively difficult to implement. Several experts thought that, though inchoate, the pension plan could potentially be more cost effective than rights of first refusal. Land preservation tontines were perceived to be an interesting concept, but confusing, difficult to implement, and ill-defined. Term conservation easements were viewed unfavorably because they did not preserve land permanently.

破坏野生动物资源类犯罪若干疑难问题研究

破坏野生动物资源类犯罪为法定犯。但由于行政法、刑法以及司法解释关于野生动物犯罪相关规定存在一定的冲突,特别是在动物保护等级、保护对象、升档标准等方面,导致司法实践在法律适用方面存在众多困难。而在司法实践中,关于动物犯罪案件司法鉴定、主观明知、违法性认识、证明标准等方面也存在不同的观点。
