Rationality,Normativity and Practices: Towards a More Inclusive Concept of Reason

Gonzalez Arnal attempts to make apparent certain relationships that exist between knowledge and rationality that, in her opinion, further the traditional relation of exclusion between women and reason. She argues that by challenging these relationships we can obtain a better understanding of what reason actually is, and this will allow us to develop a concept of rationality that does not exclude women and other communities.

The limited job prospects of displaced workers: evidence from two cities in China

The economic restructuring in China over the past decade has resulted in displacement of millions of workers who had been employed in the state sector. This has posed tremendous challenges economically, socially, politically, and culturally. For several years, Chinese policies attempted to cushion the shock by requiring state-owned enterprises to provide living allowances and reemployment services to workers who had been displaced. There have been few empirical studies that have tracked the experiences of these displaced or xiagang workers. This study uses survey data from two large industrial cities covering the period 1998–2000 to analyze the labor market situation of over 2,000 workers 2 years after they had been observed as displaced and unemployed. The findings point to the high rates of labor force withdrawal and a low proportion who find another wage job in the formal sector. It also documents the large number of workers who find work in the informal sector which seems to act as an important safety net. Not surprisingly, education is an important determinant of post-layoff labor market outcomes. Active labor market interventions do not seem to make a substantial difference although there is some evidence from the duration analysis that training does help workers find employment more quickly than they would have otherwise.

格式条款研究

格式条款的出现是20世纪合同法发展的重要标志之一,它以其交易的便捷性和经济性适应了商品经济发展的要求,同时也给合同相对方的利益造成了损害。本文从格式条款对合同法基本原则的冲击出发,评析了我国《合同法》有关格式条款的规定,提出了从立法、司法、行政三个方面来规制格式条款建议。     

论普京的“可控民主”治国模式

“可控民主”是俄罗斯在经历了10多年痛苦的转轨进程后确立的治国模式,它不是普京个人意志的显现,而是符合俄罗斯历史、国情、民意的现实选择。俄罗斯的政治发展道路将因“可控民主”而打上自己特殊的历史印记。目前,“可控民主”是与俄罗斯转型时期经济社会发展相适应的政治结构模式。但由于自身内在矛盾的掣肘,“可控民主”也面临着诸多的挑战。从长远看,发展民主政治是其必然趋向。     

规范空间的逻辑与契约论的局限

规则理性不同于个体理性,契约论者与契约至上论者也分别拥有各自不同的理性概念.由相近规范原则所构成的规范空间有着自身的逻辑特征.基于上述诸种基本区分,本文指出,传统契约理论存在着如下缺陷:混淆了规范原则与规范有效性,没有能够区分契约得以可能的逻辑条件与规范空间得以可能的逻辑条件.因此,契约论面临着从个体理性达致规则理性的困难,它更多地沦为规范有效性的一种解释机制而非辩护机制.     

形式模型与国际关系研究

本文讨论了形式模型在国际关系中的应用,认为形式模型对国际关系研究能够产生助益,这主要体现在:通过明晰理论假设,使人们对结论的适用范围有清楚的认识;使研究人员能够对研究对象中涉及的机制进行清晰可靠的分析;通过模型序列,促进知识的积累;避免研究过程中的反复重新论证等等。在此基础上,本文沿着理性选择、集体选择和博弈论的发展线索对形式模型在国际关系领域的应用进行了讨论。     

博弈论视野下的民问法与国家法——从埃里克森和小波斯纳的学术贡献切入

埃里克森和小波斯纳的共同点在于运用博弈论和信息经济学的理论工具研究民间法与国家法之间微妙复杂的关系,只不过一偏实证调研,一偏理论推演。通过在法律经济学的发展谱系中分析埃里克森和小波斯纳的学术贡献和理论推进,考察博弈论视野下民间法与国家法之间的冲突与合作并运用上述思路讨论了中国法治建设中的两个问题。     

马尔库塞的科技-生态伦理价值观

马尔库塞的科技-生态伦理价值观主要体现在马尔库塞对科学技术的社会效应分析、技术理性批判、人的解放和自然的解放关系等问题的论述中。马尔库塞科技-生态伦理价值观的理论渊源与理论得失值得仔细研究。     

“布白”及其他——再论我国现行行政公文文面的形式美

"布白"是构成我国现行行政公文文面形式美的又一重要因素.由于注重了公文文面的布白,我国现行行政公文构建出了"虚实相间"的公文文面格式.我国现行行政公文文面布白主要有三种形式.这三种形式互相结合,在公文文面上形成了四个主要的布白区域,体现出我国现行行政公文文面的空间美来.色彩对比也是构建我国现行行政公文文面形式美的一个值得注意的因素.我国现行行政公文文面通过朴素的白、黑、红三色,较好地表现出公文文面的色彩美.
