中美探视权法律制度比较

中美由于社会政治制度、民族传统和习俗的差异,两国的探视权制度在主体、强制执行、实现方式、中止等方面均存在异同。反映了各自不同的立法目的和价值取向。我国的探望权应当从“扩大探望权主体范围;规定探望权受阻可成为变更抚养关系的法定诉讼理由;确立精神损害赔偿制度;探望权纠纷案例为非讼事件,适用特别程序,不得上诉;适用拒不执行生效判决文书罪”等方面加以完善。     

论确定的一罪中的复合行为犯罪

根据犯罪客观方面所表现出的行为可以将确定的一罪分为单一行为犯罪和复合行为犯罪,根据复合行为犯罪的概念,可以归纳出复合行为犯罪的四个特征。以复合行为犯罪中两个以上行为的地位、相互关系和法律的规定为标准,可以将复合行为犯罪分为并列的复合行为犯罪、必要的复合行为犯罪和任意的复合行为犯罪三种情形。我们可以在概括提出并列复合行为犯罪和必要复合行为犯罪的定罪与处罚的一般原则后,来着重分析目前在认定任意复合行为犯罪未遂与既遂、中止和共同犯罪问题上的难点、分歧及矛盾,并在此基础上提出处理这些问题的原则和理由。     

刑事法反恐若干问题探析

反恐需要国际、国内多种形式、全方位的介入,但作为最严厉的法律手段,无疑刑事法应首当其冲。对于什么是“恐怖主义”、什么是“参加恐怖组织罪”、如何完善恐怖犯罪的罪名和刑罚、如何兼顾反恐与人权的保护和主权的维护等问题,皆值得我们进行深入、全面的研究。

Gauging support for innovative farmland preservation techniques

Given growing concerns about the loss of farmland in the US, governmental and nonprofit groups are seeking innovative, cost-effective methods to preserve lands that will elicit additional landowner participation. This article describes four innovative farmland preservation techniques and derives implications for the policy process through interviews of key stakeholders: program administrators, lawmakers, and landowners. Experts on farmland preservation were also interviewed to ensure stakeholder perceptions substantively inform the policy process. Four techniques were selected for assessment from approximately 30 novel techniques. Reactions to these policy options reflect stakeholder perceptions of a baseline condition; the perceptions help evaluate which options are likely to survive the policy process and what attributes will lead to their acceptability because few of these techniques have yet become policy. Although the stakeholders may have more limited experience with the policy process, land preservation experts validated many of the results and the possibility of success in the “rough and tumble” of the policy process. Of the four investigated techniques rights of first refusal was the most favored, although respondents thought effective implementation would require careful targeting and a dedicated funding source. Experts agreed this technique was most likely to survive in the political arena. Agricultural conservation pension was also viewed favorably, though it was considered administratively difficult to implement. Several experts thought that, though inchoate, the pension plan could potentially be more cost effective than rights of first refusal. Land preservation tontines were perceived to be an interesting concept, but confusing, difficult to implement, and ill-defined. Term conservation easements were viewed unfavorably because they did not preserve land permanently.

权利的实现与“有限侵害性”的社会权力——从贫困治理出发的思考

如何实现、保障和发展公民所拥有的法律上的权利?对这一问题的研究不应该再继续局限于国家与市民社会两分法这样一种简单化的理论框架。因为在当前,这一理论框架只是驱使研究者关注国家权力如何从社会中退出,关注国家权力对社会自治的侵害,而忽视了对社会权力的有限侵害性特点的研究。社会权力的有限侵害性最鲜明地体现在公民社会基本权利的保障和实现中,也即对贫困的治理。     

犯罪均值频率——一种犯罪时间分布的测度指标

犯罪在时间分布方面有其特定规律,常规的犯罪总数或平均数等统计量存在不稳定性、偏差性和数据保密性等问题,不利于犯罪时间分布特征的客观对比分析。犯罪均值频率指标克服了传统时间分布统计量存在的问题,可以用来分析犯罪是否偏好发生于特定的时间内,满足了犯罪时间分布规律分析需求。运用该指标对某市5年内的入室盗窃犯罪在星期日别、月份上的时间分布规律进行了实证研究,结果表明,入室盗窃在该市3月份和9-12月份表现为高发期,而在周末则表现为犯罪低谷期。     

Rights in Criminal Law in the Light of a Will Theory

The will theory of rights has so far been considered incapable of capturing individual rights under criminal law. Adherents of the will theory, therefore, have defended the claim that criminal law does not assign rights to individuals. In this article I argue first, that criminal law does assign individual rights and second, that the will theory of rights may enhance our understanding of these rights. The two major implications of the account are: a volenti non fit iniuria principle for criminal law, and a theoretical framework for an idea of punishment as restitution.
