公共政策执行中的委托代理关系分析

将经济学中的委托代理理论适用于公共政策执行分析,不难发现公共政策执行中存在委托代理关系。就我国而言,由于公共政策执行体制的特殊性,其委托代理关系也呈现出不同特点。委托代理关系及其所产生的代理问题成为公共政策执行偏差的重要原因。     

完善人民监督员制度的思考

人民监督员制度在运行中暴露出一些问题,人民监督员制度法律依据不足,人民监督员选任程序存在瑕疵,案件监督的范围有待调整就是典型例子。针对这些问题,应该推动人民监督员制度立法化,继续优化选任程序,重新调整案件监督范围。

Public administration reform for Aboriginal affairs: An institutionalist analysis

Persistent underperformance of public policy and program implementation in Aboriginal affairs is widely recognised. We analysed the results of two case studies of attempted reforms in public administration of Aboriginal primary health care in the Northern Territory, using a framework based on the institutionalist and systemic racism literatures, with the aim of better understanding the sources of implementation failure. Implementation of the agreed reforms was unsuccessful. Contributing factors were as follows: strong recognition of the need for change was not sustained; the seeds of change, present in the form of alternative practices, were not built on; there was a notable absence of sustained political/bureaucratic authorisation; and, interacting with all of these, systemic racism had important consequences and implications. Our framework was useful for making sense of the results. It is clear that reforms in Aboriginal affairs will require government authorities to engage with organisations and communities. We conclude that there are four requirements for improved implementation success: clear recognition of the need for change in ‘business as usual’; sustainable commitment and authorisation; the building of alternative structures and methods to enable effective power sharing (consistent with the requirements of parliamentary democracy); and addressing the impact of systemic racism on decision-making, relationships, and risk management.     

From issues to goals: a novel conceptualisation,measurement and research design for comprehensive analysis of electoral competition

Abstract

The analysis of issue politics has long suffered from a fragmentation between valence and positional conceptualisations, preventing the effective development of a general model of issue-based party competition. Building on an overview of the evolution of party competition in the Western world in recent decades, this article offers a theoretical development that builds on ‘issue yield’ theory to provide a conceptualisation of political goals that generalises across positional and valence issues. This in turn allows a common measurement strategy, offering the possibility to comparatively assess various characteristics (including the electoral potential) of both positional and valence issues. Finally, it describes the specific research design derived from this framework and its implementation in comparative perspective in six West European countries during 2017–2018.     

The spatial determinants of the prevalence of anti-elite rhetoric across parties

Abstract

The article investigates whether there are specific spatial conditions that make a party more likely to pay closer attention to anti-elite rhetoric than to alternative issues in its political confrontation with other parties. The article first treats anti-elitism as a non-policy vote-winning strategy that could be valued positively by a broad class of voters across ideological lines (its ‘quasi-valence’ attribute). It is then shown that the incentive of a party to embrace such a strategy grows as the ideological space separating that party from the other(s) shrinks. This hypothesis receives empirical support from the 2014 Chapel Hill Expert Survey Data.     

论我国刑罚执行体系与检察执行监督机制

我国刑罚执行体系体现出多机关参与执行的特点,具有执行的高效与便捷的特点。但执行权的分工不合理,造成司法机关职权属性异化,不利于司法公正性的维护,也不利于被执行人合法权益的维护。检察机关执行权与执行监督权因学界认识不统一,造成认识上的混淆,后果就是检察执行权和检察执行监督权合二为一,监督权脱离本色,监督失位,检察执行权缺失,参与性不足。本文对刑罚执行权与执行监督权进行了新的诠释与解读,并提出了刑罚执行与检察执行监督的具体制度设计,以期厘清两权的认识,构建公正、合理的刑罚执行体系与检察执行监督机制。
