地方政府创新是振兴东北老工业基地的关键

党的十六大首次提出振兴东北老工业基地的方略,2003年8月3日温家宝在振兴东北老工业基地座谈会上,再次指出要把振兴东北摆在突出位置。要振兴东北必须找出东北落后的原因,对于东北落后的原因学术界有很多不同的看法。而笔者认为振兴东北老工业基地的关键是地方政府工作的创新。因为没有一个有效的政府,无论是经济还是社会的可持续发展都是不可能的。本文以创新的角度从新思路、新体制、新机制、新方式这四个方面出发探讨了振兴东北老工业基地的新路子。

国家、政党、社会三者关系视域中的中国共产党执政方式探究

新中国成立以来,中国共产党对中国国家权力的执掌方式经历了众多变化,从国家、政党、社会三者关系的角度分析党的执政方式,可以把中国共产党执政方式的变迁划分为两个重要阶段:新中国成立到改革开放、改革开放以后。面对新的国内外形势,从国家、政党、社会三者"应然"与"实然"关系逻辑看,中国共产党仍须继续调整执政方式,在"科学执政、民主执政、依法执政"的轨道上不断探索。     

South Africa as an emerging power: from label to ‘status consistency’?

South Africa proudly wears the label ‘emerging power’, with its membership of the BRICS and G20 probably the most visible signs of this conferred status. This paper explores the concept of the emerging powers within the context of current global power shifts and locates South Africa within this group. It discusses the criteria for and characteristics of emerging powers, and then turns to some of the constraints and challenges faced by these states. Specific attention is paid to the ‘how’ of these states' recognition and inclusion in global institutions and the impact of domestic conditions and regional politics on their positions, focusing particularly on South Africa. It concludes that these factors will continue to challenge South Africa's ability to rise above the semblance of importance conferred by its inclusion in the category of emerging powers to a position in which it exercises this status to its own advantage, including its idealistic objectives of promoting greater global equality and recognition for Africa and the global South. Although other emerging powers face similar challenges, South Africa's domestic constraints and related lack of regional and global reach, politically and economically, threaten its ‘status consistency’ as an emerging power.     

元代以来地方行政价值实现的审视--结合“公共管理模型”与“地方行政史例”

基于Christopher Hood公共管理三重价值的视角,选取元以降（元、明、清、民国）四个历史单元为案例,审视和比较其地方行政的演化轨迹、横纵架构和运行成效。尝试一个“西方当代公共管理理论”和“中国古代地方行政实践”相结合的独特研究路径,结合“管理模型”和“史料分析”,构建一个地方行政价值实现的框架模型（LAVAM）,探究地方行政的纵向组织层级、横向权力统分与公共管理三重价值——公正、效率、稳健之间的联系与规律,以现代公共管理理论和研究方法剖析元以降地方行政历史演化的客观规律和内在逻辑,启迪地方行政改革与央地关系探索“,以今审古”“、以古鉴今”。     

Bridging borders through institution-building: the EGTC as a facilitator of institutional integration in cross-border regions

This article examines cross-border integration at the sub-state level in the frame of a European Grouping of Territorial Cooperation (EGTC). The EGTC is a supranational and directly applicable EU legal instrument that regulates the creation of cross-border ‘associations' with legal personality between public authorities. Thus, it represents a policy tool that can have an effect on the institutional frame of cross-border cooperation and potentially enhance cross-border institutional integration at the sub-state level. The aim of this article is to examine the potential effect of this EU instrument on cross-border institutional integration by studying the institutional architecture of selected EGTCs. This is done on the basis of an analytical grid that defines elements of a possible integration process based on an institutional-oriented approach. This analytical grid is applied to four case studies: the Eurométropole Lille-Kortrijk-Tournai, the EGTC Ister-Granum, the Pyrenees-Mediterranean Euroregion and the European Region Tyrol-South Tyrol-Trentino. The empirical analysis shows that despite the considerable improvement of the legal basis for cooperation, the possible effect of the EGTC for further institutional cross-border integration is still rather limited due to a narrow design of institutions and a low level of actor involvement.

Citizenship in Civil Society?

Abstract

This article seeks to provide a conceptual framework to complement and guide the empirical analysis of civil society. The core argument is that civil society must be understood, not as a category of (post)industrialized society, but as one of individualized society. Civil society is characterized by individualism that is sustained and protected by the civil values of autonomy and emancipation. This, accordingly, implies that empirical data of civil society can be understood most fruitfully within the framework of individualized society. Classical sociology, however, perceives this very individualism and its values as being antagonistic to its own civic vision. Hence, the crucial question is whether there can be any scope for citizenship, classically understood, within civil society. This article begins with the conceptual reconstruction of the social organization of civil society. Thereafter, two distinct civil society perspectives—mediating structures and Tocquevillianism—are explored to see how civil individualism and citizenship relate to each.     

市民与地方政府网上沟通的影响和意义

国外学术界关于因特网在中国政治生活中的作用的探讨大多集中在政府逐步放宽对信息流通控制的前景。而今,中国地方政府“市长信箱”的出现为政治体制改革注入了新的活力。“市长信箱”提供了市民与政府接触的途径和方式,把传统的“全能政府”、“无限政府”改造成“负责任的”、“高效率的”,最终是“服务型”的政府。“市长信箱”应长期坚持下去,并加以完善。
