韩国与东亚地区主义的未来

本文首先回顾了东亚各国签订双边和多边自由贸易协定的历程,认为随着东亚各国相互依赖的加强,东亚的经济一体化将进一步加深,并提出了未来东亚地区主义发展的三种可能方案,进而分析了各种方案可能性的程度。韩国无论在经济领域还是战略方面,都应该在建立东亚合作的进程中发挥重要作用。一定程度上,东盟和韩国在东亚地区自由贸易协定达成的过程中拥有更广阔的空间,同时在中日之间也发挥着协调者和推动者的重要角色。     

试论转基因产品贸易措施的合法性

随着全球转基因产品种植面积的扩大,人们对转基因产品安全性的担忧与日俱增,许多国家纷纷制定了关于转基因产品的贸易措施,以保证本国国民生命健康和环境免遭破坏。WTO成员要想成功援引《卫生和动植物检疫措施协定》必须满足以国际标准为基础、以科学证据为基础的风险评估、保护水平适当和有关同等待遇的规定等适格性条件。我国关于转基因生物安全的政策体系、法规体系已初步形成,但还须加强转基因食品的立法、尽快制定与国际接轨的相关规则与标准、建立转基因产品风险评估技术体系。     

两岸区域发展一从大陆台商融资困境看台湾银行业的契机

International Plug 'n Play? Citizen Activism, the Internet, and Global Public Policy

One of the most dramatic changes in world politics has been the rise to prominence of citizen networks. Among the many factors responsible for their emergence are new communication technologies, and in particular the World-Wide Web. Opinions on the nature and significance of these citizen networks, however, are mixed. Some applaud citizen networks as potential counter-hegemonic forces and expressions of democratic participation. Others see them, on the contrary, as undemocratic and largely destructive. Straddling both of these views is a third argument that suggests "real" communities cannot be sustained on the Internet, hence calling into question the long-term viability of citizen networks as actors on the world political stage. To help push these debates further, this article examines the case of the citizen networks that emerged to lobby against the Multilateral Agreement on Investments, focusing in particular on how the Internet played a part in the opposition movement. The case suggests that, contrary to those who see new media as an obstacle to global citizen etworks, the Internet and World-Wide Web greatly facilitated their activities. As a consequence, citizen networks will likely continue to grow and expand, intruding into international policymaking processes. The article concludes by examining several global public policy issues that are raised by this shift in the landscape of world politics that will have to be addressed by practitioners of international relations in years to come.     

东盟国家晚近植物品种立法价值取向研究

东盟六国晚近陆续颁布了以育种者利益最大化为价值取向的《植物品种保护法》.由于除新加坡外,其他东盟国家均是生物技术力量薄弱、未开发植物遗产资源丰富的发展中国家农业国,上述立法将使这些国家所保护的植物品种主要掌握在外国公司手中、本国农业研发受到窒息、本国植物遗传资源流失,而此类立法所带来的利益却极为有限,因此,东盟国家晚近植物品种立法的育种者利益最大化价值取向整体失当.
