An Evidence‐Based Forensic Taxonomy of Windows Phone Communication Apps

Communication apps can be an important source of evidence in a forensic investigation (e.g., in the investigation of a drug trafficking or terrorism case where the communications apps were used by the accused persons during the transactions or planning activities). This study presents the first evidence‐based forensic taxonomy of Windows Phone communication apps, using an existing two‐dimensional Android forensic taxonomy as a baseline. Specifically, 30 Windows Phone communication apps, including Instant Messaging (IM) and Voice over IP (VoIP) apps, are examined. Artifacts extracted using physical acquisition are analyzed, and seven digital evidence objects of forensic interest are identified, namely: Call Log, Chats, Contacts, Locations, Installed Applications, SMSs and User Accounts. Findings from this study would help to facilitate timely and effective forensic investigations involving Windows Phone communication apps.

权力制约乏力的成因及有效性分析

我国权力制约乏力的历史成因是国家权力获取方式;制度成因是权力过分集中;现实成因是监督信息传递不畅;法治成因是法制不健全和执法无力;组织成因是监督制约机构独立权威性不强。权力制约有效的首要条件是保证权力监督信息渠道自由通畅;必需条件是保证权力制裁权的科学合理配置;必要条件是保证权力运行在法制轨道上。

商标侵权问题刍议

新商标法的实施,对加强商标管理发挥了巨大作用,但其立法的缺漏和理论上的争议依然存在,表现在商标权与商标专用权的概念界定、商标侵权的归责原则、以及商标淡化等方面。商标权与商标专用权的含义不同,但在立法中却是作为同义语来使用的,其侵权行为的归则原则是一个突破于传统民法理论的混合原则;另外,在侵权界定时应将淡化侵权行为明确于立法当中,以做到司法统一。     

夫妻共同债务规则的法理逻辑

《民法典》夫妻共同债务规则的债务范围标准可以体现法律行为理论的核心与逻辑,充分尊重当事人的意思表示,期望避免“被负债”现象。《民法典》将原夫妻共同债务规则的法理逻辑由物权中共有改为法律行为理论,这是夫妻共同债务在法理逻辑上的理性回归,规避了共有逻辑下出现的随意借贷、“被负债”、危害婚姻家庭稳定等现象;法律行为理论高度重视当事人的意思表示,充分保护当事人合法权益,能以一以贯之的逻辑解释夫妻共同债务规则,并与其他相关制度衔接。但是夫妻共同债务规则目前也并非完美无缺,在清偿规则、日常家事代理权等方面仍需完善。     

刑事证明责任分配新探

罗森贝克通过对实体法规范的精细分析,提出了证明责任分配的学说———规范说。罗氏从实体法入手研究证明责任分配的方法对我国刑事证明责任分配的研究具有启发意义。我国刑法规范之间存在着犯罪构成要件规范与阻却犯罪成立规范的对立,从重处罪规范与从轻、减轻、免除处罚规范的对立。我国刑事证明责任的一般原则应是控辩双方应对有利于己方的刑事法律规范规定的要件事实承担证明责任。

Explaining Policy Stability and Change in Swiss Health Care Reforms

The article investigates recent health reforms and reform attempts in Switzerland. A substantial reform, the revision of the health insurance law in 1994, is followed by a long period of refused reform proposals and incremental change. In order to explain policy change and policy stability in health policies, we apply veto‐player theory to partisan and parliamentary debates on reform proposals of the health insurance from the end of the 1980s until today. Shifts in ideological positions of parties, especially with regard to the objective of solidarity, allowed for a new win‐set in the 1990s that was at the base of the law revision. Since then, the win‐set is empty as parties did not change their preferences. New and substantial reforms will only be possible, it is concluded, if the pivot player, the Christian‐democratic party, changes its ideological positions to a significant extent.     

大学生对涉性问题的评价模式研究

本文运用扎根理论方法,对大学生评价涉性问题的过程进行研究,得到大学生对涉性问题的两种评价模式,即"与传统背离的评价模式"和"与传统一致的评价模式".这两种评价模式的并存,反映了大学生的性价值观念冲突.价值冲突的成因有三:社会价值体系的转型、自由主义性价值观念的传播、性价值观教育理论研究的缺失.在性价值观教育的理论研究方面,应当对性的内涵及其本质、性的权利与义务的关系、性自由的科学内涵、性价值观的本质特征四个问题进行研究,为性道德教育提供理论支持.
