Integrating Concerns with Climate Change into Local Development Planning in Cambodia

Integration of climate change adaptation with development planning at multiple scales is widely seen as preferable to reactive, fragmented, or highly centralized responses. At the same time, there are growing concerns on when intervention is most appropriate, the transaction costs of coordination, and the adequacy of institutional capacity at local levels, especially in developing countries. This article examines entry points and mechanisms for integrating concerns with climate change into local development planning in Cambodia. An institutional ethnography of the planning process indicates that subnational planning is participatory and flexible; and thus, provides plausible entry points to integrate climate change concerns. Case study methods applied to two externally supported, climate‐resilient development projects identify promising mechanisms and strategies, as well as obstacles to integration. A vulnerability reduction assessment tool and top‐up grant scheme both included promising deliberative and participatory elements from which lessons for future and elsewhere can be drawn. At the same time, key stakeholders concede that local integration more widely is hampered by multiple obstacles, including weak institutional capacity, low community participation, and lack of resources and incentives. Addressing these challenges requires political commitments for good governance, capacity development, and additional resources.     

‘Throbb[ing] with a consciousness of a knowledge that appalled her’: Embodiment and Female Subjectivity in the Desert Romance

This article examines the relationship between the desert and embodiment in E. M. Hull’s international best-seller The Sheik (1919). This novel, a desert romance, has been the focus of feminist scholarship for decades because of its controversial rape narrative. Drawing on theories of embodiment, in particular the work of Elizabeth Grosz, the author interrogates how the desert is paradoxically presented as a space of liberation and oppression within which female sexuality could be explored despite the gendered violence of pre-existing patriarchal frameworks. Ultimately, the author provides a reading of Diana in terms of her transition from an androgynous ‘girl’ to a sexually desiring, seemingly feminized ‘woman’, and examines the connotations associated with this. The author establishes a connection between the transient nature of the desert and the liberation offered to women within this liminal space. Through an in-depth examination of the protagonist Diana’s corporeal subjectivity over the course of the novel, the author positions The Sheik as offering a voice to female sexuality and erotic fantasy, demonstrating Hull’s depiction of the desert as an appropriation of that space through which to explore female desires. This opens up new understandings of what constituted innovative literature in interwar Britain and marks Hull’s book, with its overtly erotic content and specific focus on female desire, as a political and social departure.     

"5+1+1"监狱管理教育罪犯模式的立法研究

在贯彻把刑释人员重新违法犯罪率作为衡量监狱监管工作的首要标准要求的过程中,形成了旨在提高监狱教育改造工作质量的“5＋1＋1”管理教育罪犯模式。“5＋1＋1”管理教育罪犯模式的创新之处在于把罪犯每周1天课堂学习教育固定化。“5＋1＋1”管理教育罪犯模式需要立法保障,使教育改造罪犯工作成为一项“硬任务”．进而不断发展完善。使监狱更好地履行所承担惩罚、教育和改造罪犯的重要职责,充分发挥监狱有效消除和减少社会不安全、不稳定、不和谐因素,维护社会和谐稳定的重要作用。     

Prodrugs of New Psychoactive Substances (NPS): A New Challenge

The concept of a substance acting as a prodrug for an intended drug is not new and has been known and utilized with particular benefits within medicine for efficacy and patient safety. Prodrugs of psychoactive substances are also not particularly new but this has also extended to considerations of prodrugs of new psychoactive substances (NPS). The continuing evolution of NPS has been a constant forensic challenge. In some countries, this constant evolution has led to the introduction of various alternative methods of drug control. Whether for this reason or in the pursuit of user experimentation, prodrugs of NPS have been discussed, developed, and exploited, posing some distinct forensic challenges. This is especially the case within toxicological analysis of biological fluids and for some substances, also forensic chemical analysis, through inherent instability of the prodrug or metabolism in the body. Particular examples of NPS prodrugs include 1-propanoyl-LSD, 1-butanoyl-LSD, 1-acetyl-LSD, and 2C-B-AN. This is in addition to associated substances and medicines that may be used for an intended pharmacological effect. Various prodrugs for stimulant and hallucinogenic substances in particular have appeared in the literature and have been discussed within drug user forums and made available for purchase online. Presently, drug monitoring data from national and international systems indicate that prodrugs are not widely available or problematic. Nevertheless, it is important that there is sufficient awareness of the prodrug concept and potential impact and associated forensic implications, not just for chemical analysis but also for toxicological considerations when a substance has been used.     

猪PD-1分子及其配体的实时荧光定量RT-PCR检测方法的建立

根据猪程序性死亡因子PD-I及其配体PD-LI和PD-L2的基因序列,分别设计了特异性引物和TaqMan探针,以10倍系列稀释的重组质粒pMD-PD-1、pMD-PD-L1和pMD-PD-L2为标准品,对实时荧光定量PCR的条件进行优化,以建立定量检测这3个基因的方法.结果表明,建立的方法在1×10~2～1×10~8copies/μL模板范围内具有良好的线性关系(r~2>0.99),扩增效率均高于96%,可检测至少100 copies的阳性标准品.利用该方法对猪外周血单核细胞中这3个基因的表达情况进行了检测,结果也表明该方法具有良好的敏感性、特异性和重复性,可应用于临床样品的检测.     

三个柔嫩艾美球虫虫株线粒体cox 1基因部分序列的比较分析

为研究柔嫩艾美球虫不同毒力株的线粒体细胞色素c氧化酶第1亚基(cox1)基因与球虫种群之间的遗传关系,应用聚合酶链反应扩增柔嫩艾美球虫3个不同毒力株的cox1序列,并与GenBank上登录的鸡柔嫩艾美球虫、巨型艾美球虫、毒害艾美球虫和堆形艾美球虫虫株的相应序列进行比对分析.结果显示,每个虫株都获得659 bp的cox1部分有效序列(pcox1).柔嫩艾美球虫不同虫株的pcox1序列完全相同,但与其他种的艾美球虫相应的pcox1序列有不同程度的差异.表明柔嫩艾美球虫的cox1序列可作为艾美球虫不同种虫株之间遗传变异研究的标记.

Die Genossenschaftswohnung in der Exekution

Nachdem der OGH bereits in zwei Entscheidungen die Verwertung eines Kleingartenhauses und einer Genossenschaftswohnung im Konkurs trotz § 5 Abs 4 KO gebilligt hatte, hat er nunmehr in einer neuen Entscheidung die Verwertung einer Genossenschaftswohnung im Exekutionsverfahren – wenn auch mit Einschr?nkungen – für zul?ssig erkl?rt. Der vorliegende Beitrag stellt die Entscheidung vor und untersucht einige sich hier stellende Folgeprobleme.     

"Zeitlich eingeschränkte" sofortige Vollziehbarkeit eines Mehrheitsbeschlusses der ordentlichen Verwaltung im WE

Ist ein Mehrheitsbeschluss über ordentliche Verwaltungsma?nahmen (hier: Erhaltungsarbeiten an der WE-Anlage; Finanzierung durch sofortige Umlage und erh?hte Rücklagenbeitr?ge) wirksam zustande gekommen, weil der WE-Verwalter allen Wohnungseigentümern rechtzeitig Gelegenheit zur ?u?erung gegeben hat, ist aber die Beschlussanfechtungsfrist noch nicht verstrichen oder eine Anfechtung anh?ngig, muss von einer vorl?ufigen, "zeitlich eingeschr?nkten" Vollziehbarkeit des Beschlusses ausgegangen werden. Die Anteilsmehrheit der Wohnungseigentümer kann daher im Bereich der ordentlichen Verwaltung auf diese Weise einen, wenn auch noch anfechtbaren oder angefochtenen Beschluss durchsetzen. Für die "vorl?ufige" Vollziehbarkeit eines Mehrheitsbeschlusses der ordentlichen Verwaltung l?sst der OGH hier als nicht entscheidungsrelevant offen, ob die Verletzung von Formalvorschriften (hier: Unterlassen des Hausanschlags über die Beschlussfassung und f?lschliche Bezeichnung des Mehrheitsbeschlusses als dem Bekl vorgelegter "Umlaufbeschluss") im Wege der Anfechtung zur Rechtsunwirksamkeit des Beschlusses führt oder nicht. Die erfolgreiche Anfechtung stellt die Rechtsunwirksamkeit des Beschlusses mit Wirkung ex tunc fest.
