论人与自然和谐以及人与社会和谐的关系

人与自然关系的和谐决定人与人社会关系的和谐,同样,人与自然关系的对抗也决定着人与社会关系的对抗。人类只有通过改变其经济发展方式,才能将人与自然的这种对抗性关系转向和谐性关系,进而才能建立起一个美满和谐的社会。     

我国农村公务员行政行为的外部性现象分析

农村公务人员高效率的行政行为是农村经济与社会发展的动力,但其行为中的外部性问题却影响行政行为的效力。因为无论是正外部性还是负外部性都与帕累托最优原则不符,因此通过外部性理论审视与分析农村公务员行政行为中的正外部性与负外部性现象的表现形式及形成原因,在制度层面完善对农村公务员行政行为的激励与约束措施,弥补正外部性行为的额外成本支出,加大负外部性现象的成本风险。     

美国“自然的权利”诉讼

动物等自然物是否有资格提起诉讼,其诉讼行为能否通过人类代为行使是自然的权利诉讼所面临的问题。自然的权利诉讼理论根基可以追溯到环境伦理学中的各种学说,最早的自然的权利诉讼出现在美国,但是,至今美国法院对自然的权利诉讼所表现出的态度却有所差别。     

我国中小企业融资效率研究

我国中小企业主要集中在一些技术含量低,风险相对低,劳动密集型的产业和行业。其利润水平低,存在着资金供给渠道狭窄,内源融资规模有限,直接有效的资金供给不足,风险投资渠道不完善,商业信用不发达,以及贷款供给期限过短等障碍。中小企业融资效率主要受融资成本、资金到位率、资金利用率、企业清偿能力、融资机制规范程度、融资主体自由度等六方面的制约。为此应重视内源融资,优化资本结构,多种融资模式结合;强化现代企业制度,改善公司治理结构,选择符合企业长远利益的好的投资项目,保持对企业的控制权;建立针对中小企业的证券市场,完善中小企业的信用担保体系,有效降低企业的融资成本,为企业直接融资效率的提高创造良好的宏观条件。     

论构建中国特色检察制度

中国检察制度与中国特色社会主义制度紧密相关,是中国社会和政治制度的必然选择,与西方三权分立下的检察制度具有本质属性区别,因此,确立和完善中国检察制度必须考虑中国社会实际和中国的基本政治制度。履行宪法赋予的法律监督职能是中国检察机关的基本职责,也是检察制度的核心内容。为了适应社会发展变革的需要,中国检察制度还需要进行改革,改革应当立足中国国情,同时也要放眼世界,应当从健全法制、改进领导体制以及完善保障机制等方面去努力。     

公民的基本权利与宪法保障

保障公民的基本权利是宪法最主要、最核心的价值。近代宪法是在保障公民基本权利的过程中产生的,保障公民的基本权利是宪法永恒的主题。基于经济、政治和文化的发展,我国要通过修宪和宪法解释工作进一步确认一些与中国社会发展和人们生活息息相关的必要的基本权利,并通过规范国家权力和加强司法救济等手段来确保公民基本权利的实现。     

论边沁的女权思想

长期以来,国内学界一直将边沁看作是一位法律改革家、功利主义哲学家,然而被大家忽略的是他还是一位杰出的女权主义者.虽然他没有关于女权的专著,但从他大量的著作中,我们能够归纳出他关于女权的思想.边沁主要从两个方面揭露和批判了法律上关于妇女的广泛的不平等,论述了他的女权思想:一是关于妇女的政治自由,即授予妇女选举权的问题,二是妇女的个人自由,即关于妇女婚姻权的问题.     

论和谐社会审美精神的建构和指向

和谐社会的审美精神，既是社会发展的现实需要，又是中华民族优秀文化传统发扬光大的需要。中华文明五千年历史文化中积淀着和谐意识与和谐美精神，建构起和谐精神的根基。现代和谐社会在继承发展中，以其现代意识提升人的综合素质，提高生活的品质，弥合现实与理想的关系和矛盾，从而以审美精神建构和谐社会，使和谐社会呈现出审美化、理想化与现实性、功用性结合的特征，体现出和谐社会的审美价值和意义。     

What Limits for Government Control? Civil Liberties and Anti‐terror Measures after the Heathrow Bomb Plot

The threat posed by transnational terrorism has excited debate about how best to calibrate relations between government, the courts and parliament: how can the provision of internal security be facilitated, whilst respecting freedoms and ensuring that policies enjoy broad legitimacy? Attention has focussed primarily on the power of the courts. Sections of the government have mooted a curtailment of judicial competencies; by contrast, a broad range of actors calls for ‐ at the least ‐ the maintenance of current judicial powers as the best means to prevent government from exploiting its already large scope for manoeuvre, as well as to overcome public scepticism. Yet the current debate misses the point that relations between government, courts and parliament have already been altered. Government has gained extra political resources thanks to its participation in forms of international counterterrorist cooperation. This shift of power, and associated problems, were clear during the recent ‘Heathrow bomb plot’.     

Globalization and legal change: The “Americanization” of European law?

Intensified global economic competition, economic liberalization, and the rise of EU governance have led some observers to argue that there has been a trend toward the “Americanization” of the European “way of law.” This article addresses that contention, focusing on legal change in European member states. It first describes ways in which the American legal tradition has differed most sharply from the national legal systems of Western Europe (including Great Britain) and the political and economic factors that account for this “American legal distinctiveness.” Similar political and economic factors currently are at work in Europe, the article acknowledges, creating incentives for legal convergence. But it also argues that European legal culture and the political organization of European national states generate path‐dependent forces that impede European movement toward American ways of law, and it discusses six important differences between European and American law that remain entrenched and are unlikely to disappear.
