彭宇案被演绎为转型社会的热点案件,客观诠释着其关涉司法法治生成结构要素的样本意义。彭宇案在事实真相认定的司法场域中具象化表征出参与主体的类型差异,一审和二审法院的场域资本在原被告之间呈现前后完全相反的态势变化。运用法社会学分析工具考量社会、职业和学术多维识别向度中热点案件的差异化区分特质,探寻关涉案件事实真相认定的司法法治生成社会动力学依赖发现路径。     

还原论与整体论社会概念再探讨

社会概念的再定义问题暗含在国内外新的学术语境中.社会理论阐述者以还原论定义贬低社会学的整体论定义,但二者共同秉持社会实在论的基本预设,因而它们具有并列和互补的可能性,这将有利于批判思想与学术实证在解说现实中重获平衡.     

BEYOND ADOLESCENCE‐LIMITED CRIMINOLOGY: CHOOSING OUR FUTURE—THE AMERICAN SOCIETY OF CRIMINOLOGY 2010 SUTHERLAND ADDRESS*

For over a half century, criminology has been dominated by a paradigm—adolescence‐limited criminology (ALC)—that has privileged the use of self‐report surveys of adolescents to test sociological theories of criminal behavior and has embraced the view that “nothing works” to control crime. Although ALC has created knowledge, opposed injustice, and advanced scholars’ careers, it has outlived its utility. The time has come for criminologists to choose a different future. Thus, a new paradigm is needed that is rooted in life‐course criminology, brings criminologists closer to offenders and to the crime event, prioritizes the organization of knowledge, and produces scientific knowledge that is capable of improving offenders’ lives and reducing crime.     

试析曼海姆知识社会学理论

曼海姆通过对现代认识论与心理学研究问题的分析,提出了以环境决定知识和群体知识决定个人知识等观点为核心的知识社会学理论。他认为以往知识理论都是政党政治的产物,而知识社会学建立的目的是为了建构一门超党派、为人类服务的纯客观的知识体系。尽管他的知识社会学理论深化了存在论向度的知识问题研究,但由于其对社会问题把握缺失总体性综合式研究思路与方法,因而显得抽象、空洞并难以实现。     

中国民事诉讼法学成长的启示——以知识社会学为视角的分析

从知识社会学考察,中国民事诉讼法学成长表现为四种知识的生产,即普法法学、注释法学、理论法学、实践法学,民事诉讼法与民事诉讼法学的关系结构构成了民事诉讼法学知识生产的社会环境。每种知识的生产既是对特定关系结构的表达,受特定关系结构的制约,又参与了关系结构的创造。民事诉讼法学知识生产是在历史的变迁中进行的,又是通过民事诉讼法学家群体来实现的。     

刑事和解能否承受死刑司法控制之重?——基于案件社会学的分析

作为近年来兴起的一种本土性的司法实践,死刑案件的刑事和解是由部分学者的理论倡导、最高人民法院的司法指引与一些地方法院的积极实践三方共谋的结果。由于理路与论据上的一体两面性,价值层面的相关争论难分伯仲,故有必要引入案件社会学的研究方法。经验地看,死刑案件的刑事和解是一个极为复杂的纠纷化解过程,围绕着三方主体的和解活动所产生的8个变量均在实质地影响着和解的进程及最终的命运。这些变量的能量释放及相互作用过程构成了死刑案件刑事和解实践运作的基本规律。通过对这种过程性的分析或规律性的把握,最终可以看到,死刑案件刑事和解的前景并不乐观。

The politics of other citizens

In all kinds of political action, citizens are confronted with the performances of other citizens. An important guide to political behaviour is therefore likely to be the assumptions people make concerning how others can be expected to behave. This article explores common sense ideas about other citizens as potential political participants, drawing on a series of group interviews conducted with taxi-drivers in Britain, Germany and the Czech Republic. I argue the expectations voiced of other citizens tend to be pessimistic in nature, casting them as ill-informed, apathetic, passive and unduly self-interested, notwithstanding the appearance of a more optimistic view which holds they can be expected to follow the lead of those who ‘take a stand’. These empirical observations lead to a discussion of the theoretical issues they raise, notably where to locate the origins of such views, and how to appraise their implications for democracy.
