知情权法律救济在我国遭遇的尴尬

<政府信息公开条例>的实施,在一定程度上保障了公民的知情权.然而<条例>在规定知情权法律救济途径时,由于并未充分考虑其独特的性质,故知情权如遭受侵害,在行政复议、行政诉讼、国家赔偿等传统的救济手段中面临诸多困惑与尴尬.因此,在宪法中明确赋予公民知情权以基本权利的地位;待时机成熟提升条例的法律位阶,变条例为法律;调整行政复议、行政诉讼的审查方式,增加屏蔽审理程序;提高公民权利观念,加强政府法治理念,畅通救济途径,才能更加有效地保障公民的知情权.     

Quantitative structure–activity relationship (QSAR) methodology in forensic toxicology: Modeling postmortem redistribution of structurally diverse drugs using multivariate statistics

Postmortem redistribution (PMR) constitutes a multifaceted process, which renders the analytical results of drug concentrations inaccurate to be interpreted by forensic toxicologists. The aim of the present study was to evaluate whether quantitative structure–activity relationship (QSAR) methodology could serve as an effective tool to estimate the ability of drugs to redistribute across tissue barriers during postmortem period on the basis of their molecular, physicochemical and structural properties. In this aspect, multivariate data analysis (MVDA) was applied to a set of 77 structurally diverse drugs. PMR data expressed by the central:peripheral concentration ratio (C:P ratio) was taken from the literature. An adequate and robust QSAR model (R² = 0.65, Q² = 0.56, RMSEE = 0.34) was established for 59 (77%) out of 77 drugs. Although the derived QSAR model presented limited applicability, it provided an informative illustration of the contributing molecular, physicochemical and structural properties in PMR process. Drugs with strong basic properties and enhanced molecular size, flexibility, lipophilicity and number of halogens were found to be susceptible to increased PMR. Due to the high complexity of PMR process, further QSAR studies need to focus on structurally related drugs to develop more specific models, which could serve as alternative tools to evaluate PMR for different chemical classes.

Using State Child Labor Laws to Identify the Causal Effect of Youth Employment on Deviant Behavior and Academic Achievement

On the basis of prior research findings that employed youth, and especially intensively employed youth, have higher rates of delinquent behavior and lower academic achievement, scholars have called for limits on the maximum number of hours per week that teenagers are allowed to work. We use the National Longitudinal Survey of Youth 1997 to assess the claim that employment and work hours are causally related to adolescent problem behavior. We utilize a change model with age-graded child labor laws governing the number of hours per week allowed during the school year as instrumental variables. We find that these work laws lead to additional number of hours worked by youth, which then lead to increased high school dropout but decreased delinquency. Although counterintuitive, this result is consistent with existing evidence about the effect of employment on crime for adults and the impact of dropout on youth crime.

Assessing the (eco)macroeconomic performance index of India: A data envelopment analysis approach

The prime objective of this article is to construct a robust macroeconomic performance (MEP) index of the Indian economy using the data envelopment analysis (DEA) approach. Seven major macro indicators, namely, economic growth, employment rate, terms of trade, inflation rate, fiscal deficit, pollution, and climate change are used to compute MEP and Eco‐MEP indices of the Indian economy from 1980–1981 to 2018–2019. Overall, both the MEP and Eco‐MEP index scores have quite similar best performing years worst performing years, and have also captured the major events that affected adversely the Indian economy during the past decades. The trend in the overall performance of the Indian economy was better in the 1980s and the 1990s but has deteriorated since 2000. The autoregressive distributed lag bounds testing approaches to cointegration methods are used to test the robustness/utility of these indices. The estimated results show that MEP and Eco‐MEP have a positive impact on private investment, foreign investment inflows, foreign direct investment, and a negative effect on the current account deficit. Hence, the suggested composite MEP index is stable, robust and truly captures the economic performance of India. The constructed MEP composite index may be used by foreign investors, rating agencies, private investors, and policymakers for their planning and decision‐making processes.     

计量经济研究实践中的数据运用误差

计量经济学方法已被广泛地应用于经济研究的各个领域,理论、方法、数据是计量经济研究的三大基本要素。综观国内大量的计量经济研究成果,我们发现不尽严密和科学之处并不少见。本文从数据运用角度,列举了计量经济研究实践中的三类偏误现象,以呼吁人们关注计量经济学研究的客观性     

朝鲜对中国的经济依存度分析

朝鲜实施的是计划经济体制,对外贸易在其经济发展中只处于拾遗补缺的地位,外贸依存度很低。但就其对外贸易本身来讲,对于中国、韩国的依存度却非常高。尤其在战略物资和外援方面严重依赖于中国。由于朝鲜对于改革开放存在很深的疑虑,估计短期内在经济改革方面不会有突破性的进展。因此在今后较长的一个时期内,无论在对外贸易方面,还是在外来援助方面,都将严重依赖于中国。     

个人信用信息数据库在我国征信体系构建中的法律定位分析

个人信用信息数据库的法律定位分析系指对数据库保护的具体法律关系定位而言。在我国征信体系构建的过程中,个人信用信息数据库的权利主体是谁,具体权利及权利内容如何,需要在借鉴美国、欧盟、日本等征信国家信用立法、管理等经验的基础上,结合我国的实际情况进行路径选择并给出具体设计。
