国际金融危机下的台湾经济形势分析

由国际金融危机引发的世界性经济衰退,严重冲击了外向型的台湾经济。在内需提振乏力、外需市场萎缩的双重压力下,岛内生产和服务业增长停滞,财政状况恶化,民生痛苦指数提高。导致台湾经济衰退的原因有内部和外部两个层面,其中产业升级不力是根本性的因素;而两岸经贸关系的逐步开放和正常化回归有助于纾解台湾经济困境。     

Length of Shift,Work Outcomes,and Psychological Well‐Being of Nursing Staff

Abstract

This research examined the relationship of three work shift characteristics (length, working more than 8 hours, working double shifts) to work outcomes, indicators of psychological well‐being and perceptions of hospital functioning during a time of considerable hospital restructuring and downsizing. Data were collected from 744 hospital‐based nursing staff survivors of these changes. About 60% of the respondents worked shifts that were 9 hours or longer and 20% had worked two shifts back to back. Younger, less experienced nurses worked longer shifts. All three shift characteristics were significantly related to frequency of nursing errors and injuries.     

The Effects of ‘Social Expectation’ on the Development of Civil Society in Japan

The European Union (EU) stands out among the major trading powers for its significant and dramatic response to new demands for access and participation in its external trade policymaking process. A spectacular range of mechanisms designed to increase the involvement of civil society organizations, including non-governmental organizations (NGOs), have been introduced recently. This article examines whether these new political opportunities in the EU have an impact on the trade processes and policy outcomes by revisiting a case that has been celebrated as indicative of the potential of global civil society to promote social justice—the Access to Medicines campaign. The findings show that although NGOs were instrumental in providing education, raising awareness, and giving a voice to broader societal concerns about the social and health-related aspects of the proposed trade deals, their impact on policy outcomes was limited. EU policymakers did not pursue policies that placed public health concerns over stringent intellectual property right protection, despite NGO involvement in the external trade policymaking process. I argue that the robust liberal and legal epistemic foundations of the international trade regime effectively hamstrung NGO efforts to move the external trade policies in more sustainable and just directions. These findings have broad implications for the power of epistemes and their ability to enable and delimit NGO agency in global economic governance.     

信贷扩张与资产价格泡沫：案例、机制与启示

回顾分析1929年大崩溃、1980年代末日本的资产价格泡沫以及2008年美国次贷危机,发现每次资产价格泡沫的过度膨胀都伴随着大规模的信贷扩张;而信贷急速扩张的背后,则是长期繁荣所形成的大众乐观以至疯狂情绪.这意味着,应该从更长远的政策视野推进宏观金融调控体系改革,构建金融和实体经济双稳定框架,以降低实体经济、信贷扩张与资产价格波动的同周期性所引发的泡沫风险.     

法律漏洞补充理论的三个基本问题

尽管漏洞补充是一个法律方法论问题,但在现代法律方法论与法律本体论不断融合的背景下,在法律本体论上的不同立场,直接决定了法律方法上的不同操作。法律漏洞的概念、法律漏洞产生的原因以及法律漏洞补充的根据即是决定着漏洞补充理论如何展开的三个基本问题。法律漏洞乃是指因人类理性之局限,立法者无奈或故意造成的法律文本的意义不能与法学主流价值观念或民众期待完全契合而导致的法律文本与案件事实之间的裂隙。法律意识形态的多元化、立法权对司法权的不信任、法官类型思维能力的欠缺构成了法律漏洞产生的基本原因。法学理论以及民众期待则是对法律漏洞进行补充的实质性根据。

论罪责对犯罪论体系的影响--以期待可能性为基点

罪责作为责任的核心含义的形成,经历了从团体到主观、到个人责任的发展过程,最终成为研究犯罪论至关重要的构成要素。然而,时至今日,罪责在犯罪论的研究中,却显出日渐衰微的趋势。期待可能性在犯罪论体系中引起的两难选择问题,促成了大陆法系国家对犯罪构成理论进行修正和调整,但这种调整仍然无法完满地解决超法规的期待可能性免责事由的尴尬位置问题,欲彻底解决问题,就需要建立开放的犯罪构成的构架。     

我国侦查形态的演变与展望

从政治与法制的视角观察,可以将我国的侦查形态概括为政治化的侦查形态、政治化向法制化转型的侦查形态和法制化的侦查形态。从属性、工具性、封闭性是政治化侦查形态的主要特征,独立性、公正性、开放性是法制化侦查形态的主要特征,两者的演变就是在侦查的立法、执法、守法三个方面,转变侦查的价值、目的、职能、模式、方法等方面的观念,用法治取代人治、用法律取代政策,保证侦查活动依法有序进行。1949年新中国成立至今的近60年间,以1979年《刑法》和《刑事诉讼法》颁布为界,此前为政治化的侦查形态,此后为政治化向法制化转型的侦查形态;伴随着未来我国司法改革的进程,最终将逐步形成法制化的侦查形态。     

在权利与法益之间——对侵权行为客体的解读

侵权行为的客体是界定侵权行为法适用范围的重要方面,但目前学术界并未对此展开特别深入的探讨。本文明确了侵权行为客体为权利和法益的理由,并指出两者的诸多不同与适用时的合理限制,为两者的区别适用提供了理论依据。
