刑事附带民事诉讼制度的价值取向

刑事附带民事诉讼是我国诉讼立法的一项制度,但随着市场经济体制的完善和发展,现行的立法对这一制度的规定已难以适应司法实践的需要。这一制度在司法实践中存在的诸多问题主要有两方面的原因:一是对此制度的理论研究薄弱;二是法律必须适应社会经济发展变化的客观规律与人们认识的局限性之间的矛盾。对其价值取向进行梳理和探讨,目的是从价值层面折射其理论光芒,以正确指引司法实践。

A MULTILEVEL TEST OF RACIAL THREAT THEORY

We develop a conceptual model articulating the mechanisms by which racial threat is theorized to affect social control, focusing specifically on the influence of the relative size of the black population on the likelihood that the police will arrest a black citizen suspected of a violent criminal offense. A multilevel analysis of 145, 255 violent crimes reported to police in 182 cities during 2000 shows only qualified support for racial threat theory. Controlling for the amount of race-specific crime reported to police, our findings reveal that black citizens actually have a lower probability of arrest in cities with a relatively large black population. This finding tends to cast doubt on the validity of the racial threat hypothesis. No evidence buttresses the claim that economic competition between whites and blacks affects arrest probabilities. However, results show that in cities where racial segregation is more pronounced blacks have a reduced risk sof being arrested relative to whites. Crimes involving black offenders and white victims are also more apt to result in an arrest in cities that are racially segregated. These findings support the view that racial segregation is an informal mechanism to circumscribe the threat of potentially volatile subordinate populations.     

股权质押制度的反思与重构——以制度价值为中心的考察

安全、效率和公平是股权质押制度的基本价值取向,但现有股权质押的制度安排,一方面因防范道德风险、市场风险和法律风险的机制漏洞可能危及交易的安全;另一方面,因过于侧重对交易安全的保护而忽视了对交易便捷利益的保护,忽视了对出质人的公平保护,影响了效率和公平;因此,需要对股权质押的制度价值进行准确定位,按照安全优先,兼顾效率和公平的要求,完善我国的股权质押制度,进一步拓宽融资渠道,促进资本市场健康发展。     

衡平理念下遗产税的开征与法律制度构建

衡平税法将衡平理念运用到了税法之中,其提出立足于我国非均衡经济制度条件下产生的社会财富分享不公的矛盾。传统税法面对贫富差距问题存在一定的法律失灵甚至异化现象,需要衡平理念对其进行矫正。遗产税在调节社会财富分配方面的作用已在世界其他国家得以彰显。当前,在衡平理念下开征遗产税并建立相应的法律制度具有必要性和可行性。构建遗产税法应立足于我国现实,实现三位一体但又有层次的价值理念、税权和税负的衡平。     

Effects of Assets Structure on the Financial Performance： Evidence From Sultanate of Oman

The main objective of this study is to examine the effects of assets structure （fixed assets and current assets） on the financial performance of some manufacturing companies listed on Muscat Securities Market （MSM）. The methodology of the study is content analysis of annual reports of a sample of 28 out of 70 （40%） companies for the period 2008-2012. The assets structure is measured by fixed assets turnover and current assets turnover while the financial performance is measured by return on assets （ROA） and return on equity （ROE）. The study examines two main hypotheses. The first one examines the effects of total assets turnover on ROA whereas the second one examines the effects of total assets turnover on ROE. The overall result for the study is that the structure of assets does not have a strong impact on profitability in terms of ROE. This result means that if the structure of assets is changing then the ROA will not change. Another result of the study indicates that only the fixed assets have impact on ROE unlike ROA. Another result of the study suggests that the effect of asset structure has an impact on ROE only in petro-chemical sector.     

重构和完善中国式职工持股制度的工会视角与主张

从上世纪九十年代开始在国有企业改革中尝试实行的职工持股制度,还存在不少问题和偏差,影响到这项制度的实际效果和健康发展。贯彻党的十八届三中全会精神,重构中国式企业员工持股制度需要纠正以往偏差。在重构员工持股制度探索中,工会从自己的视角提出的对策和主张是:一是在现代产权制度变革中探索建立和发展人力产权,努力打通人力资本转化为企业资本的科学通道;二是重构员工持股应与鼓励职工提升技能、"健全技术创新激励机制"统筹设计;三是重构员工持股制度要与完善劳动者参与公司制度有机结合起来;四是重构职工持股制度应形成党委领导、行政(政府)支持、工会参与、员工响应的工作格局。     

“Os Bons Colonizadores”: Cuba's Educational Mission in Angola, 1976–1991

This article examines the rhetorical construction of race and racial identities by letter writers in a US-based, South African newsletter. I highlight the rhetoric of crime, the strategic rhetoric of implying race, the construction of blackness, the rhetoric of white victimization, and the relationship between whiteness and nationality. I conclude with a brief query as to whether these letters are exemplary of racist discourse.     

乡村生态振兴及其法治保障

乡村生态振兴是实现乡村"天更蓝、水更绿、生态宜居"的顶层设计,其法律内涵包括改善乡村人居环境,保护和改善乡村生态环境,推进绿色产业、绿色农业、绿色旅游发展三方面内容;其核心是平衡多元价值。乡村生态振兴面临多重现实困境,主要表现为污染源头多样、治理难度大,制度供给乏力以及治理方式单一。乡村生态振兴法治保障可从三个方面展开:首先,以国家立法为基础,突出地方环境立法的补强功能,形成完善的农村生态环境保护法律规范体系;其次,推动政府主导的单轨环境治理机制向多元主体参与的双向互动治理机制转变;再次,发挥法治与德治在乡村生态振兴中的规范作用。
