从国家社科基金立项项目看法学研究状况——一种知识社会学的视角

通过对1993-2004年来国家社会科学基金立项的法学类项目类立项资助项目相关指标的分析,来展现我国目前法学学术生产格局的大致状况及其背后动因;并通过与经济学社科基金立项项目的比较以及对法学类社科基金立项项目在社科基金项目中所占比例等数据的分析,来呈视法学作为一门独立学科在整个人文社会科学界的地位变迁,以及这种变迁背后的权力———知识格局。     

Writing las dissertations,part one: the rationale for an experimential research project

This article describes the impetus for a research project conducted during 2002–2003 into our law students' experiences of undertaking a dissertation module. It also discusses the rationale for the particular methodology and approach we have used to conduct this research, and presents the results. A driving force behind this research project was not only the desire to obtain knowledge for its own sake but also the need to identify and enhance positive aspects of students' experience of this module. We decided to adopt a student led and experiential method of carrying out our research that focuses directly upon the students' lived-experience of engaging in dissertation writing. The rationale for this decision was our acknowledgement that, within the last decade, students are increasingly defining themselves as consumers of educational services and have a legitimate and indeed pivotal role in quality assurance strategies. We also recognised that adopting an experiential method of inquiry, informed by a phenomenological approach, should, in principle, help to empower students by acknowledging their autonomy and encouraging them to engage in critical reflection. Finally, applying this methodology would provide us with precisely the subjectively rich type of research data derived from the students' lived-experience that we sought. This revised version was published online in July 2006 with corrections to the Cover Date.     

论社区矫正的研究对象

由于我国在立法上没有对社区矫正的对象予以明确规定 ,因此 ,社区矫正的研究对象还存在争议。从学理上看 ,社区矫正的研究对象可以分为刑罚惩罚条件下适宜社区矫正的对象、其他条件下适宜社区矫正的对象和行政处罚条件下适宜社区矫正的对象。对这一问题的研究 ,有助于社区矫正的科学定位     

中国地方人大制度的研究现状与展望

中国的地方人大制度近年来引起了国内外学术界的不断关注。国外研究的最大特点是较为注重实证分析和模式构建 ,具有较强的学术价值。但是由于价值准则的误用和分析层面的局限 ,这种研究难免存在着一些不足之处。与此相对 ,国内的研究则带有很强的规范研究和对策研究的成份。总体上可以将国内的研究概括为制度描述、制度完善、工作改进和行为统计这几种途径。国内研究的最大优势是一手材料的利用和价值准则的趋同 ,但是由于实证程度和模式构建力度的不足 ,同样也存在着需要完善的地方。要真正提升地方人大的研究层次 ,就有必要从中国地方人大的产生和运作过程中去寻找制度层面的内在动力。     

关于成立疑难刑事案件研侦机构的设想

各类疑难刑事案件的产生与积压是一种客观存在,快速准确查处各类疑难刑事案件是一种客观要求。从理论上推测,设立一种兼具研究和侦查双重职能的专业机构专门应对各类疑难刑事案件,是可行的、必要的和有效的。应从疑难刑事案件研侦机构的定位、组成与运作等方面考虑,成立疑难刑事案件研侦机构。     

试论地方党校教学科研工作的定位和重心

党校教学科研的定位是由其性质和任务的特殊性决定的。党校教学内容由思想政治动员、知识能力补充、党性锻炼修养三方面组成,而党校科研则要从与宣传部门、一般公共研究机构、党政部门内设研究机构的区别和联系中定位。党校教学科研的重心应放在对党的地方执政能力的战略性反思上,放在跟踪和论证党委重大战略决策上。     

深化婚姻法教学改革 注重学生能力培养

立足于深化教学改革,促进学生素质的提高,就要在婚姻家庭继承法的教学中注意教与学的互动,及时更新教材,解除教材陈旧之患;采取多种教学方法和手段,不断提高教学效果;注重理论研究、以科研促进教学水平的提高。     

公安院校民商法教学研究

民法中的平等、权利保护、诚信等基本原则对树立人民警察的执法理念,维护人民警察合法权益有重要意义。公安机关在具体工作中愈来愈多地运用到民商法知识,民商法学在公安课程体系中的地位不容忽视。因此,必须扭转以往公安工作“重刑轻民”的传统观念,改革教学模式,将民法理念、知识与公安工作有机结合,采用灵活的、形式多样的教学方法,提高教师的实践素质和实践能力。     

The decomposition and graphical analysis of crime and sanctions data: A cross-national application

This article attempts to illustrate the utility of isoquant map analysis from the field of production theory in microeconomics for the analysis of criminal justice data. Cross-national comparisons of aggregate crime and justice data are used to demonstrate the ability of this technique to reveal important patterns that are often obscured by simple rate comparisons and multivariate treatments such as pooled time-series analysis. For each jurisdiction, aggregate trends in criminal justice processing rates are systematically analyzed as a sequence of two-input production processes: gross imprisonment rates (prison population divided by resident population) can be partitioned in terms of the crime rate and punitiveness (prison population divided by the number of offenses); punitiveness can, in turn, be partitioned in terms of severity and certainty of punishment; certainty of punishment can then be partitioned, seriatim, in terms of the incarceration rate, the conviction rate, and the arrest or clearance rate and the rate at which citizens report crimes. Cross-national data collected by Farrington, Langan, and Wikström are used to illustrate the utility of the method for displaying comparisons of the decomposition of aggregate criminal justice data for the United States, England, and Sweden.     

科学与诠释:法哲学研究的两种理路

法哲学研究经历了神学取向、科学取向和诠释学取向这样三个阶段。这三个阶段是历时性的纵向发展过程 ,但也不排除共时性的存在。在当今 ,神学取向的法哲学研究已衰微 ,而科学取向和诠释学取向已成为法哲学研究的两种理路。虽然哲学诠释学是在反对“科学方法”的名义下产生的 ,但它与科学方向之间并没有一刀两断 ,相反 ,二者之间的相互渗透却越来越多 ,它们构成了人类思维和认知之两翼。
