Before Identity, Gender and Human Rights

This is the beginning of an exploration of before as the thesis ‘before’ (temporally) and ‘be-fore’ (spatially) difference. Before denotes the origin and the desired destination. Before (in the double sense of ‘before’ and ‚be-in-the-fore’) opens up a space of pre-difference, of origin and of forgotten memory, as well as a space of desire, objective, illusion of teleology, unity, completion. Applied to the two domains of Human Rights and Sex/Gender, the space of ‘before’ yields two slightly different vistas: in human rights, a premodern, functionally undifferentiated society which had to invent human rights as its safeguards of functional differentiation. In Sex/Gender, ‘before’ brings a self-referential construction: that of ipseity, as the form of identity beyond comparison that does not play with id but with ipsum. Ipseity is inoperable but not useless. It is inoperable because it cannot be observed from anywhere without suffering rupture. It is not useless because it offers a ground for the reconceptualisation of difference, both through awe and desire.     

Gender, citizenship and human reproduction in contemporary Italy

This article examines how the recently introduced law on assisted reproduction in Italy, which gives symbolic legal recognition to the embryo, came about, and how a referendum, which would have repealed large sections of it, failed. The occupation of the legal space by the embryo is the outcome of a crusade by a well-organised alliance of theo-conservatives. These groups see in reproductive medicine an uncontrolled interference with their notion of the natural order of things. Such a worldview requires a total ban on stem cell research, limitation of access to reproductive technologies and repressive laws to govern the area. This conservative dream scenario has come closer to being realised by the introduction of a law doing all of these things in the name of the protection of “Life”. In the case of this law, the “life” to be protected is the embryo. In the name of “Life”, scientific advances and individual liberty have been curbed. The politics of embryo citizenship is a politics which values the yet to come over the here and now, purgation over pleasure, and the transcendent over the material.

高校互动式师德建设机制之新见

随着市场经济体制的建立和社会价值主体的变化,价值取向由单一走向了多元,因此,在高校更新师德建设机制是时代发展的迫切要求。在加强高校教师师德修养、提高师德水平的过程中,实现师德建设机制的创新是最主要、最核心的问题。建立互动式师德建设机制是符合教育自身规律和道德建设规律的,在实践中,应以师德认识、师德内涵认识、师德实践和师德评价等互动式师德建设机制为内容,努力建构高校互动式师德建设新机制。     

不平衡发展与中国新型城乡二元经济

城乡不平衡是经济发展的常态,城乡差别是不可消除的。中国城乡关系的构建应抛弃变二元经济为一元经济的传统思路。在新的历史条件下,克服中国巨大的城乡差距的正确途径是实施向农村倾斜的新不平衡发展战略,逐步建立城乡有别、各具特色、相互协调的新型城乡二元经济。

自律：新时期推进我国廉政建设的必然视角

离开了公共权力主体的运用和操作,公共权力便不会发挥任何作用,再完善的体制也实现不了。在新时期我国廉政建设的推进过程中,公共权力主体的自律能力提升就显得尤为迫切。我们从公职人员自律的角度出发,认为实现自律具有可行性,并可以通过主体积极主动以及他律两种方式来实现自律。     

树立正确荣辱观构建和谐校园文化

在建设社会主义和谐社会的进程中,营造和谐的校园文化氛围尤为重要.由于当代大学生心理发育不够成熟,社会阅历浅,辨别是非的能力比较弱,因此,应在不断提高大学生科学文化素质的同时,加强大学生的思想政治教育工作,大力弘扬民族传统文化,提升大学生对中华民族道德观念和文化精神的认同感,使其在实践中树立社会主义荣辱观.     

国际文化产业的非均衡竞争与中国的竞争方略

文化产业的国际性发展是经济全球化和文化全球化的集中反映。作为一种产业,它的发展必然跟随着经济全球化的步履不断地扩大经营规模,拓展发展空间,走向世界。推进中国文化产业的国际化进程,是我国融入全球化大潮的重要途径。当今世界文化产业竞争的平台就是WTO,世界贸易组织各种现行的国际贸易协议中有关文化艺术产品的规定,作为游戏规则将对中国发生效力。     

也论解决海峡两岸民商事法律冲突的模式

复合法域国家解决区际民商事法律冲突采用不同的模式。对于中国区际民商事法律冲突的解决,学者们也提出不同的主张。但是,这些模式是否适合于解决海峡两岸的民商事法律冲突问题,还需进一步分析与探讨。两岸的民商事法律冲突是特殊的区际法律冲突,由于这种冲突具有阶段性与渐进性并存的特点,因此,冲突的解决不可能一步到位,也必须采用阶段性、渐进性的措施。不论理论上存在什么缺陷或不足,从务实、需要的角度考虑,海峡两岸适用各自的区际冲突法或类推适用各自的国际私法解决相互间法律适用上的冲突,是现阶段最适宜的方法。
