The backlash against civil society in the wake of the Long War on Terror

The enthusiasm for civil society that emerged in the late 1980s and 1990s with the collapse of the Berlin Wall and the spread of democratic regimes has been replaced in recent years by a backlash against civil society on many levels and fronts. This has particularly intensified since the attacks of 11 September 2001 and the ensuing global war on terror. This article examines the causes of this backlash within the context of the ‘Long War on Terror’, describes the overt and implicit manifestations of the backlash, and reflects upon the implications for the future. It considers how the growing prominence of concerns about security and the concomitant expansion of counter-terrorist measures across the world threaten the spaces for civil society to flourish and act. It argues that while the manifestations of the backlash, such as the crackdown on NGOs in Russia and the taming of NGOs by bilateral and multilateral agencies, may appear to be disparate, unconnected phenomena, on closer inspection it is clear that they are intricately intertwined.     

强化政协民主监督职能的理性思考

民主监督职能薄弱,是人民政协事业的焦点问题之一。本文从政协民主监督的内涵出发,对政协民主监督的优势和限度进行了法理辨析,阐述了加强政协民主监督的重要意义,提出了当前强化民主监督的措施:通过对法律、政策和机制的改进与完善,优化民主监督环境;通过开展对执政党的监督、开展不可行性论证、发挥政协组织化作用以及加强与其他监督形式的整合,激发政协民主监督职能的活力。     

罢工权入宪的正当性分析

2008年以来,罢工现象凸显。这就使得立足现实,系统的探讨罢工权是否应该入宪成为一个紧迫的话题。我国宪法对罢工权并无明确规定,但是在现行体制下,不管是从法的角度还是看现实中的处理,罢工权在我国也有一定的正当性的根据。但是,罢工权成为宪法基本权利仍有其特殊意义。在我国罢工权入宪不存在理论上和现实的阻碍和冲突,罢工权入宪不仅正当而且可行。因此,为更好的应对可能越来越多的罢工现象,应当将罢工权写入宪法,以便立法更好的调整其中涉及的各种关系。     

Summary of selected parts of Kautsky's

This paper covers two major contentious points in the history of the relationship between the sciences and social thought - the question of the character of ideological intervention within the sciences and the effect of a scientific discovery upon the ideological and cultural milieu in which it appears. In particular it uses the construction of Darwin's Descent of Manto illustrate a number of general points about this relationship.     

论用人单位内部劳动规章内容的合法性

试论弗·道格拉斯的女权思想

弗·道格拉斯不仅是19世纪美国黑人的著名领袖,也是美国女权运动的先驱者之一。他以美国《独立宣言》所宣称的人人生而平等和代议制政府原则为基础,把黑人解放和妇女解放思想巧妙地结合起来,变成有机的整体。但是,道格拉斯首先是一位黑人领袖,他在两者不能兼顾的时候,总是优先考虑黑人的解放问题,这就注定了他的女权思想的局限性,与女权运动领导人的关系也不可能一帆风顺,而是既有冲突,也有合作。     

尊重主权保护人权--透过国际关系看主权与人权

人权是人类社会发展到较高级阶段,人类自我意识提高的必然产物,"人权"概念的出现和人权的发展都离不开国家主权,主权原则既是人权国内管辖和国际保护的依据,又是人权领域开展国际合作的基本条件,主权是人权保护的基础.     

National Security, Terrorism and Constitutional Balance

The 'war on terrorism' engages all the institutions of the state. A constitutional structure devoted to protection of liberty must place a paramount value on separation of powers, and a parliamentary democratic constitution should ensure that the ultimate locus of responsibility rests in the legislature, the only branch which has a direct connection to the citizens. However, in an ironic reversal of practice that prevailed before the coming of mass democracy, Parliament in the UK since the early twentieth century has largely accepted a supine role compared to the executive in matters of 'national security'. The judiciary, despite the enactment of legally enforceable human rights, has also manifestly failed to exercise its proper function of curbing abuses of state power. The result is an over-mighty executive, able to draw upon the deference of other branches of government in prosecuting the 'war on terrorism' on the battlefield and in the statute book, which has trampled on individual rights with virtually no check or counte-balance. Some principles by which the balance might be restored are suggested.
