全面建成小康社会与政府功能透视

全面建成小康社会离不开政府引导、保护、协调等功能的有效发挥,而引导功能无疑是首要之需,作为两大主体的中央政府、地方政府,既具有相向的表达、又具有紧密的关联。中央政府的引导功能主要通过规范授权、财政控制、政策工具、指标考核等方式实现,地方政府的引导功能作用主要通过实际设计、规划布局、理性选择等方式实现。准确把握两者之间的内在统一性、不可替代性,进一步优化宏观层面的整合设计,加强中观层面的统筹推进,有助于从根本上保证全面建成小康社会的质量和水平。

地方政府有效引导网络舆论思考

网络舆论的日益发展和兴起给地方政府带来了新的挑战和考验,网络舆论引导成为地方政府面临的新课题。尽管地方政府非常重视网络舆论引导,但在重视程度和引导效果方面依然存在差距,普遍存在网络舆论引导效果不彰的问题。因此,不断增强地方政府网络舆论引导性的有效性是各级地方政府亟待解决的问题。     

干部学院学风建设的机制构建与实践

良好学风是干部教育培训质量的保证。加强学风建设,倡导优良学风,历来是我们党高度重视并着力解决的重要问题。2013年2月,中组部针对学员管理中存在的突出问题,下发了《关于在干部教育培训中进一步加强学员管理的规定》,意在通过强化学员管理带动学风建设。中国延安干部学院结合培训管理工作实际,从今年3月份开始,对所有培训班次在入学动员会上都发出＂弘扬延安精神,树立优良学风＂的倡议书。     

基于内容分析的政务微博传播效果研究——以“@陕西发布”为例

随着微博在中国社会影响力的提升,许多政府部门纷纷入驻微博,政务微博建设蔚然成风,发展势头迅猛。陕西省人民政府门户网站官方微博"@陕西发布"是其中运作比较成功的案例,在发布地方新闻、服务本地民众、传播区域形象方面发挥了积极的作用。提升政务微博传播效果,应以梳理传播主体、内容、媒介、受众四个要素为前提,不断创新政务微博互动形式,使之成为汇聚民智、反映民情、解决民忧、促进公民参与的政民互动平台。     

论洛克有限政府思想及其宪政价值

洛克作为近代宪政民主政治思想重要的奠基人之一,凭借《政府论》上、下两篇的论述,在批判"君权神授"的基础上,对"有限政府"思想进行了较为全面的阐释。尤以《政府论》下篇为代表,对后世宪政的发展产生了莫大的影响。可以说在洛克相关理论的影响下,才有了今日限制政治权力、保障公民权利的现代宪政理论。本文通过对洛克有限政府思想进行溯源剖析,分析其中所蕴含的宪政价值。     

论清代徽州禁约合同——兼议与禁约告示、禁约碑之区别

中国古人习惯于用合同的方式来解决各种财产纠纷和社会矛盾。禁约合同是古代合同类型之一种,多是同族、同村人等为禁止盗窃、禁止砍伐树木、保护荫木来龙水口等事务,共同立约承诺并议定罚则的合同文书。部分禁约合同,由于请求官府支持,而转化成禁约告示、禁约碑,约束范围扩大、效力上升,已可视为乡规民约。禁约合同本身没有外部约束力,其内部约束力是传统合同"信"价值的表达。禁约合同是私人间由于财产的共有或公有产生一种调和权利纠纷的自发秩序,也是地缘社会维护生活安宁,将一些陋习予以禁止,共同约束自身和抵御外来侵犯的约定。然而,从禁约合同、禁约告示、禁约碑等的整个体系来看,禁约产生和运行是需要外部保证的,这种外部保证就是国家法或官方的支持。据此,禁约合同才能发挥基层社会调和权利纠纷的作用。     

Bills from the Floor: Why Governing Party Groups Initiate their Own Legislation

In parliamentary systems, why do party groups of the government camp initiate their own bills instead of going through the cabinet? This article suggests that such governing party group bills occur for three reasons: (a) cabinets hand out bills to the parties on the floor; (b) party groups or MPs want to signal to constituencies; or (c) parties on the floor are dissatisfied with cabinet policy making. Arguing that the absolute and relative importance of these explanations varies with institutional context, country-specific hypotheses with regard to the number of governing party group bills in Germany are tested. As expected, mechanisms (a) and (c) are especially important in explaining the occurrence of governing party group legislation in Germany.     

中国债法的现状与未来

中国债法必须完善,应当制定债法典或民法典中的债编.侵权责任法具有债法所需要的品格,应纳入债法典之中.在未来的民法典采取将合同法、侵权责任法并列设编的体系下,应当设置债法总则.中国现行债法的众多制度及规范均应完善,明确构成要件和法律效果,不宜仅有禁止性规定而无相应的法律后果.     

Reinvigorating the transnational links of sub-national governments between Australia and Japan with special reference to Western Australia–Hyogo sister-state relations

Abstract

The study of transnational links between sub-national governments is a lacuna in the field of international relations yet the issue on inter-sub-national government cooperation has recently gained greater importance at the international level. Since the 1992 Earth Summit recognition of sub-national authorities as key players in global sustainable development strategies, the importance of decentralised cooperation between sub-national governments has been strengthened by a series of international standardisation and domestic incorporation of this principle. Yet our research raises serious questions about the degree to which Australia–Japan twinning of sub-national governments has made progress towards taking responsibility in facing global challenges. Our case study of Western Australia–Hyogo sister-state relationships shows that their 25 year-old cooperation has been suffering from a lack of awareness of the emerging role of sub-national governments. Not surprisingly, national government policy and position has greatly influenced the nature and patterns of their relationships. Australia and Japan twinning, as leading inter-sub-national partnerships in the region, can do more to promote the value of the local dimension in international development cooperation. In light of these challenges, the future of their twinning must lie in a structured long-term commitment for global strategies as well as mutual benefits.
