Amartya K. Sen and social exclusion

Andries Du Toit (2004) argues that the concept of social exclusion has limited use in the field of development studies, since chronic poverty is often the result of incorporation on particularly disadvantageous terms (‘adverse incorporation’) rather than any process of exclusion. Du Toit therefore advocates going beyond thinking about ‘exclusion’ and ‘inclusion’ in binary terms and looking more closely at how different kinds of power are formed and maintained. This article argues that thinking about social exclusion has already moved beyond a simple ‘included/excluded’ dichotomy, and that use of Sen's analytical framework assists researchers to tease out the complex, interconnected factors underlying chronic poverty, such as that experienced by agricultural workers in South Africa's Western Cape district of Ceres.

Strategies for out-scaling participatory research approaches for sustaining agricultural research impacts

The popularity of participatory research approaches is largely driven by the expected benefits from bridging the gap between formal agricultural science institutions and local farm communities, making agricultural research more relevant and effective. There is, however, no certainty that this approach, which has been mainly project-based, will succeed in transforming agricultural research in developing countries towards more client-responsive, impact-oriented institutions. Research managers must consider appropriate strategies for such an institutional transformation, including: (1) careful planning of social processes and interactions among different players, and documenting how that might have brought about success or failure; (2) clear objectives, which influence the participation methods used; (3) clear impact pathway and impact hypotheses at the outset, specifying expected outputs, outcomes, impacts, and beneficiaries; (4) willingness to adopt institutional learning, where existing culture and practices can be changed; and (5) long-term funding commitment to sustain the learning and change process.

张家山汉简《二年律令》所见刑罚原则

张家山汉简《二年律令》是西汉初年的法律辑录 ,这批简文对刑事责任年龄、故意与过失、数罪的处罚等都有较细密的规定。其它刑罚原则有诬告反坐原则、证言不实反坐原则、连坐原则、上诉不实加刑原则等。汉律在定罪量刑时 ,充分考虑皇权和尊长的地位 ,对于触犯皇权和尊长都要从重处罚。此外 ,对于触犯人伦、群盗犯罪以及官吏犯罪也予以重惩 ,而对于自首和犯罪后自动减轻犯罪后果等则采取从轻处罚的原则。汉初的刑罚原则与秦律所载刑罚原则基本相同 ,西汉武帝以后在具体的操作细节和适用标准方面有所改变。     

公共外交的界定、形成条件及其作用

近年来,公共外交的兴起日益受到人们的瞩目。本文从几种国外流行的公共外交概念入手,分析公共外交的本质特征、兴起原因及其作用,并通过介绍西方国家公共外交机构改革情况,对我国的公共外交工作提出建议。公共外交的发展反映了当代国际关系行为主体多元化、矛盾竞争复杂化等新特点,体现了当代政治的发展、外交制度的完善和外交方式的创新,发展和完善公共外交工作对于消除“中国威胁论”,扩大中国的国际影响,具有重要意义。     

民事再审检察建议的运行机制

民事再审检察建议既是完善司法权力监督制约机制的重要手段,也是构建和谐社会的必然要求,体现了中国法治自主型进路的选择。解决民事再审检察建议入法后在司法实践中呈现的问题,需要正确把握其发展方向,从充分保障下级人民法院依法独立行使审判权、正确处理民事再审检察建议与民事抗诉的关系、完善民事再审检察建议的备案程序、构建人民法院专门性审查机制、培养和建立外部运行司法生态等不同角度和层面共同完善其运行机制。
