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.     

The evolution of party images and party system in Taiwan, 1992–2004

This article examines the evolution of party images in Taiwan between 1992 and 2004. It shows that party images are not immutable, as while the DPP gained more positive images, the other parties gained more negative images during the research period. The results show that the Taiwanese parties have quite distinct party images. Taiwanese voters often tend to use ethnic background and the cross-Strait relations to define the parties. Party images also play a significant role in Taiwanese voting behaviour, even when other variables are controlled. Voters tend to vote for the parties that they have favourable impressions of. The results also have implications for how political parties package themselves to attract more votes and on the development of the party system in Taiwan.     

Party Potential and the Pattern of Party Competition in the 2003 Swiss Federal Elections

This article explores both the party potential of the five major parties in Switzerland at the 2003 elections and how well the parties actually did in relation to how well they could have done. A party's electoral potential depends on both the probability of the electorate voting for the party and on the probability of individual voters participating in an election. The analysis shows that the SVP and the CVP were successful in mobilising their potential voters in the 2003 elections, while the FDP did almost as badly as they could have done. However, compared to the potential of the FDP or the SP, the overall potential of the SVP is limited. For the SVP, issue specific factors account for the mobilising success. This is especially the case for its stands against the EU and asylum seekers. The CVP profited from the Ruth Metzler effect, who was a key figure in the 2003 CVP campaign.

论保险公司先付责任--兼析《道路交通安全法》第75、76条

保险公司先付责任的理论与实践基础在于责任保险给付的第三人性以及保险公司社会责任的扩张。先付责任实质为保险金的先行给付，其同被保险人与第三人赔偿责任确定无关，且保险公司承担先付责任后一定条件下享有追偿权。机动车第三者强制责任险规则出台前保险公司不应承担先付责任。目前，应尽快出台机动车第三者强制责任险规则，并对受害人诉请抢救费用、保险公司履行先付责任的程序细化。增加其可操作性。     

夫妻财产隐名共有人权利保护的法律思考——一则妻子擅自卖房案引发的思考

夫妻显名方擅自处分共有产的类案中,法官们往往徘徊于交易第三人与事实物权人之间利益平衡之间。而这一利益平衡的过程,实则体现的是登记公信力与真实权利人保护的消长关系。法官的判断过程必须准确把握登记制度的本旨、婚姻家庭制度的价值取向和社会大众一般权利意识。在保护善意交易的同时,必须对恶意利用瑕疵登记进行交易的行为作出否定性的评价,以平衡真实权利人的权益。     

党员干部要养成调查研究的习惯
