从排队秩序到宪法秩序——麦考密克的制度法律理论核心命题

使得规范成为规范的并不是规范本身,而是在规范之外的共同信念。这种信念是包括宪法秩序在内的所有秩序得以成立的基础。这就是英国学者麦考密克在他的《法律的制度》一书中阐释的内容,他用排队这个通俗易懂、每个人都有的实际经验阐明了不依赖于明确表述的规范的社会实践和社会秩序的存在,并分离出了不同于规范的事务,即实践者之间相互的行为期待。而正是这种信念才是秩序的最终来源,而正式规则和权威等概念同样建立在这种秩序之上。     

Experimental results on data analysis algorithms for extracting and interpreting edge feature data for duct tape and textile physical fit examinations

A physical fit is an important observation that can result from the forensic analysis of trace evidence as it conveys a high degree of association between two items. However, physical fit examinations can be time-consuming, and potential bias from analysts may affect judgment. To overcome these shortcomings, a data analysis algorithm using mutual information and a decision tree has been developed to support practitioners in interpreting the evidence. We created these tools using data obtained from physical fit examinations of duct tape and textiles analyzed in previous studies, along with the reasoning behind the analysts' decisions. The relative feature importance is described by material type, enhancing the knowledge base in this field. Compared with the human analysis, the algorithms provided accuracies above 90%, with an improved rate of true positives for most duct tape subsets. Conversely, false positives were observed in high-quality scissor cut (HQ-HT-S) duct tape and textiles. As such, it is advised to use these algorithms in tandem with human analysis. Furthermore, the study evaluated the accuracy of physical fits when only partial sample lengths are available. The results of this investigation indicated that acceptable accuracies for correctly identifying true fits and non-fits occurred when at least 35% of a sample length was present. However, lower accuracies were observed for samples prone to stretching or distortion. Therefore, the models described here can provide a valuable supplementary tool but should not be the sole means of evaluating samples.

两岸互信的巩固与深化：理论视角与实现路径

信任是两岸交流交往活动得以实现及深入的核心机制。目前围绕两岸互信基础的解释,存在两大视角：一是以理性选择的计算为基础;二是以非理性的社会或关系选择为基础。两岸互信既可能来源于双方的理性选择,也可能来源于双方间的交往过程,甚至是来源于两岸制度化的合作等,当然还可能来源于前述几个＂信任源＂的不同组合。概括起来,巩固与深化两岸互信的动力来源体现在以下三个关键因素：对历史与现状的反思、相互依存的利益联结以及共同价值与规范的培育与形塑。而增进和深化两岸的相互信任,除了两岸基于理性选择增强双方的利益联结之外,还可从增进合作型信任关系、构建＂积极信任＂机制以及开展社会心理建设等入手。

对象即方法：法官事实认定的心理学分析——对苏力“黄碟案”演讲的再思考

语境论、“具体问题具体分析”或者理论联系实际等论证方法的过度运用令人生疑。一是在把握事实方面,自己树立一个假想的靶子进行批判,而三段论的演绎推理或者分析,或因假设前提错误,或因不存在因果关联,而导致结果不能证;二是教条的、无原则的具体分析,借题发挥的普遍联系,因为多走了一步,真理就转化成了谬误。为方法而方法、为批判而批判可能是一种舍本逐末的研究思路。而“对象即方法”的研究思路可能是法官事实认定的心理学分析的一个基本前提。     

Innovation in Communication and Media Studies: Reflections from South African Academics

Abstract

This article discusses the possibility of a discipline of communication and media studies that is innovative, pluralistic and open in ways that conduce to development. Based on a set of in-depth interviews with a select group of South African communication and media studies scholars, the article discusses critically how, and if, communication and media studies as a field is innovative. Innovation here talks to a discipline that is imaginatively open to a myriad of different, diverse and divergent contributions relevant to the human endeavour of understanding the world in ways that better humanity. In doing this, the authors critically explore how the discipline is perceived variously by the scholars interviewed as enabling, encompassing and embodying innovation in research, teaching, curricula, theory, methodology, resourcing, and community outreach. As such the article addresses a span of issues that either support or inhibit innovation.
