论有限合伙人身份识别法律制度

有限合伙人因受有限责任制度保护而使其身份识别显得重要,有限合伙人身份识别体现在合伙协议的内部确定、有限合伙证书显示信息的外部公示、企业事务控制权和合伙企业名称四方面。有限合伙人身份存在被推定和被否定的制度设计,以企业事务控制权为核心的有限合伙人身份否定的证明责任在于债权人,以合理信赖的标准承担责任有利于保护有限合伙人。我国有限合伙人身份识别立法可以借鉴美国1976年的ULPA模式为主,确立合伙协议和有限合伙证书制度,明确有限合伙人身份错误责任以及依控制权、合理信懒原则设置有限合伙人的否认制度。     

公共物品供给中的政府与第三部门伙伴关系

作为对市场和政府在提供公共物品存在双重失灵的积极回应,第三部门应运而生,但第三部门提供公共物品时,也存在失灵的问题。成功的制度安排在于建立政府和第三部门之间的伙伴关系,在提供和生产公共物品时使二者做到扬长避短、优势互补。政府通过合同外包、特许经营、补助等方式,使第三部门成为部分公共物品的生产者,政府则承担购买者和管制者的角色。

Popular culture and religious metaphor: saints and shrines in Wakhan region of Tajikistan

The article focuses on the study of the Ismā‘īlī saints (awliyā) and shrines (qadamgāh) in the Wakhan region of Tajikistan along with their historical context. Its essential purpose is to draw a succinct historical and ethnographic picture of shrine culture in the region and determine its religious significance in the broad frame of socio-cultural context of Wakhan. While discussing rituals associated with saint veneration and shrine visitation, it elaborates on the changing role of shrine culture in modern Wakhan and its adaptation to the newly established social and cultural circumstances after the collapse of the Soviet Union. It is argued that the process of religious and cultural revival in post-Soviet Wakhan had its own distinctive element manifested in the transformation of the existing shrines into museums or ‘museumization’ of shrines, a process that not only changed the spatial compositions of the shrines but also enhanced their social and cultural functions.     

论商主体的类型界定

世界上一些主要国家都将商主体分为商个人、商合伙与商法人三大类,我国也应将这三类商主体作为我国商事主体的基本分类在即将制定的商事通则中予以规定。本文在对国内外商主体立法例归纳的基础之上,提出了我国商主体的立法建议：商个人包括个体工商户、经过登记的农村承包经营户和个人独资企业;商合伙包括普通合伙企业和有限合伙企业;商法人包括有限责任公司和股份有限公司。合作社和农村集体经济组织不应纳入商主体范畴中。     

当代印度尼西亚的中国观演变

当代印尼中国观的演变对中国和印尼的双边关系乃至中国与周边国家关系产生重要影响。冷战结束以来,印尼的中国观从负面向正面方向演变。这种演变与印尼自身的民主改革、中国国力的提升与中国和印尼战略伙伴关系的确立密切相关。未来印尼的中国观将受到投资因素、跨国人口流动因素和美国因素等影响。而密切政治对话、强化社会人文交流和有序引导中国企业的投资将是保证未来印尼的中国观正向走向的关键举措。

Understanding how and when change occurs in the administrative justice system: the ombudsman/ tribunal partnership as a catalyst for reform?

ABSTRACT

This article explores the ongoing condition of the ombudsman sector through models of change adopted from the social science literature. Debates about change are fleshed out through an analysis of the ombudsman/tribunal partnership initiative currently underway. As well as providing an explanation for the slow process of reform in the ombudsman sector, the article highlights the need for further research into the partnership initiative to detail the strengths, weaknesses and sustainability of such bottom-up reform agendas in the administrative justice system. We conclude that the impact of each individual initiative is likely to be minor but as a process they represent important moments of institutional learning which, in the context of current crisis, could operate as catalysts for major administrative justice reform.     

A Comparative Analysis and Evaluation of Specialist PPP Units’ Methodologies for Conducting Value for Money Appraisals

Governments throughout the world are turning to public?private partnerships (PPPs) as a means of providing new infrastructure. The decision to adopt a PPP over conventional government procurement is usually based on a value for money (VfM) appraisal, but this analysis is conducted differently in different countries. This article describes the correct way to conduct VfM analysis if the goal is to minimize the present value of the costs to the Treasury and if the goal is to maximize social welfare. It then compares the documented methodologies of nine specialist PPP units. It identifies four ways in which these methodologies depart from either of the correct approaches, and shows how each departure favors the PPP option. Finally, it shows how the UK approach might be augmented to determine the best value to society.
