略论人事争议仲裁制度的定位与价值取向

人事争议仲裁制度是近年来我国程序法律制度中新出现的一类程序制度,主要裁决事业单位与其工作人员因辞职、辞退等原因所发生的争议。该制度的运行目前仍存在许多障碍,如劳动争议仲裁程序的纠葛、人事制度中实体法缺位等等。人事争议仲裁制度的缺陷并不等于该制度没有相应的程序价值。该制度应定位于裁决公务人员,包括国家机关工作人员和改革后事业单位中工作人员与其单位之间的争议,并通过人事争议仲裁制度的实施,推动我国事业单位改革及其法制化进程。     

索马里海盗的界定及惩治

海军护航打击索马里海盗有充分的国际法依据。《联合国海洋法公约》关于海盗行为的定义一定程度上限制了对索马里海盗的打击。短时间内,修订《联合国海洋法公约》关于海盗的定义并不现实,联合国安理会的决议又具有临时性,通过双边或区域协议的方式对海盗的认定达成共识是一种可行的方法。由某一主权国家审判索马里海盗存在一定的困难性,国际社会可采取特设法庭的方式来审判索马里海盗。我国应制定惩治海盗的国内法。     

论医疗纠纷ADR机制之构建

文章参照美、德、日三个发达国家的非诉讼解决纠纷制度,采用比较的方法,在借鉴其他国家经验的基础上,剖析了我国医疗纠纷非诉讼解决机制存在的问题。对完善医疗纠纷协商机制、引入第三方介入医疗纠纷的调解机制及加快我国医事立法方面提出了建议,以此构建和谐医患关系。     

论上诉考核的替代性机制

司法审查形式化的固有缺陷、便宜结案的办案模式及审级制度内在的行政化元素,为当事人通过上诉解决纠纷提供了心理暗示和路径依赖。而上诉考核机制的矫正功能和激励效用极为有限,不能从根本上解决这一问题。对此,可考虑引入上诉考核的替代性机制:一方面,构建相应的基础性保障机制,扩展司法实质性解决纠纷的范围和能力;另一方面,对审级进行功能划分,升格上诉程序品质以及建立诉讼成本分担机制,应更有利于实现纠纷解决的目标。     

浅议“继续中止减让案”中的报复措施终止问题

授权报复,是WTO争端解决机制中最有威慑力的执行手段。但对于如何终止报复措施,DSU并未明确规定。在2008年10月审结的"美国——在欧盟荷尔蒙争端中继续中止减让"案中,上诉机构作出了比较明确的回答。从基本案情入手,讨论本案暴露出的问题,并通过解读上诉机构报告予以回答和解释,可为我国致力于DSU的修改工作提供借鉴。

Duel or Dual: An Interdisciplinary Approach to Parenting Coordination for Uber‐Conflicted Parenting Relationships

Parenting coordination for families struggling with severe conflict can be challenging for both the family and the parenting coordinator (PC). These families can put an inordinate strain on the PC as they lobby their positions and try to bias the PC against the other parent. The interdisciplinary dual‐PC model is an innovative approach using aspects of the collaborative practice model to enhance the efficacy of the process while utilizing the strengths of both disciplines. Through a case illustration, the identification of the family dynamics and situations that give rise to use of this approach shall become clear. This article also demonstrates the potential benefits to both the family and the PCs. All aspects synthesize into a cohesive, well‐balanced approach to the uber‐conflicted parenting relationships.     

Evaluation of the University of Denver's Center for Separating and Divorcing Families: The First Out‐of‐Court Divorce Option1

The Resource Center for Separating and Divorcing Families (RCSDF) is the first U.S. alternative dispute resolution model to provide legal dispute resolution, therapeutic, educational, and financial services to separating and divorcing families in a single location outside the courthouse. Data were collected on 82 families at entry and service completion: service utilization, process timeliness, family satisfaction, and outcomes. Parents were highly satisfied with the process and demonstrated significant improvements in personal well‐being, co‐parenting, parenting quality, and reported reductions in children's anxiety/depression. Community partners felt RCSDF was a positive innovation in their community. The RCSDF model represents a culture shift from an adversarial process to a cohesive alternative that supports the well‐being of all family members.     

Critical Review of Research Evidence of Parenting Coordination's Effectiveness

Parenting coordination (PC) has been in use since the mid‐1980s, but research on its effectiveness is sorely lacking. We review the extant research organized by three themes: (1) parenting coordinators’ perceptions of their role and function; (2) professionals’ and parents’ views and perceptions of PC; and (3) outcomes of PC, including some measures of effectiveness of the PC process. While these studies provide some insight into PC effectiveness, there is still a lack of research that uses objective outcome measures of efficacy and that considers characteristics of the co‐parent dyad, personality difficulties, or the professional discipline of the parenting coordinator. Future research recommendations are discussed.
