论网络服务提供商之信息披露义务——以我国著作权法制为中心的批判性解读

我国立法对网络服务提供商之信息披露义务规定得过于简单,司法实践也存在一些认识上的误区,其原因是我国关于信息披露义务理论存在不完善之处。对诸如该义务之性质等基本问题在理论上都没有涉及,故而需要予以澄清。从著作权法之公共政策出发,构建利益平衡的信息披露义务,必须要确立它的民事义务属性,义务之履行须通过民事诉讼之方式,以符合程序正义之要求,而具体之条件应该关注网络用户隐私保护与言论自由之需求,同时建立违法救济制度。     

网络犯罪与计算机伦理--当前网络犯罪增长原因的伦理学思考

网络犯罪作为一种新型的犯罪形式,其增长的原因是多方面的,而网络技术和计算机伦理发展的不平衡是其根本原因。只有加强计算机伦理建设,才能有效规范网络行为。     

机关犯罪立法之反思

1997年刑法典把国家机关规定为犯罪主体,是立法者在积极政治观指导下高估立法能力和司法能力的产物。从消极政治观、刑法的谦抑性以及机关犯罪本身的内在缺陷等方面来看,应取消机关犯罪,把机关排除在犯罪主题之外。     

建构共同体的东亚模式

建设东亚共同体已开始成为东亚13国的共识,东亚思想库网络第二届年会充分表现了这种共识,并对为建构东亚共同体需要努力的5个方面进行了深入的讨论。作为第二轨道组织,东亚思想库网络的议事和决策程序在一定程度上反映了共同体建构的东亚模式:互相尊重、舒适程度、协商一致。这也表现在会议通过的《东亚思想库基本规则和框架》文件之中。     

诉讼与仲裁的功能比较--兼论仲裁的功能优势

作为一种社会解决纠纷机制来说,诉讼的主要功能仍在于解决纠纷、消除冲突.这对于维护社会秩序是非常必要的.但是,作为一种特殊的纠纷解决方式和社会控制机制,诉讼也不可避免地存在着结构性功能缺陷.与诉讼相比,仲裁的特点在于其程序简便、结案较快、费用开支较少、不具备行政特色、能独立公正和迅速地解决争议,给予当事人充分地自治权;同时具有客观性、灵活性、保密性、终局性和裁决书易于得到执行等优点.这种优势正是各国定位仲裁与诉讼关系的基础.     

论仲裁制度的诉讼化

本文通过诉讼和仲裁程序特征的比较,认为仲裁是基于诉讼的缺陷而产生、发展的,仲裁发展的过程是一个制度化的过程,仲裁制度化的过程固然承继了诉讼中的许多有益做法,但不宜诉讼化,仲裁的诉讼化有违仲裁的精神,从而使仲裁失去自身的特点和优势。我国仲裁制度中存在着一定程度的诉讼化倾向,本文对此进行了论述并提出了相应的改进方法。     

Women's agency in Australia's first fertility transition: a debate revisited

The place of women's agency in the fertility transition of the late nineteenth/early twentieth century is a contested one. Some argue that the transition was achieved mainly through male methods of contraception. Others, including many arguing from an Australian perspective, contend that women's agency in fertility decline was significant. In this article, the authors revisit the issue of women's agency in Australia. Drawing on a range of archival sources and scholarship, they seek to demonstrate that women in Australia in the last quarter of the nineteenth century had access to contraception, albeit limited, and, where that failed, to abortion. The authors argue that the changing political and educational climate, which saw women gaining the vote in 1894 in South Australia and admission to secondary and higher education and paid work, provided the setting for women's changing status. Their increasing agency – an agency many women worked to secure – encouraged women to challenge many traditional practices.     

Conclusion: agency,context and emergent post-uprising regimes

This conclusion summarizes the evidence explaining the divergent trajectories taken by post Arab uprising states in terms of multiple variables, each illustrated by an iconic case, namely: State Failure and Competitive governance (Syria), Regime Restoration and Hybrid Governance (Egypt) and Polyarchic Governance (Tunisia). Factors include the starting point: levels of opposition mobilization and regimes' resilience – a function of their patrimonial-bureaucratic balance; whether or not a transition coalition forms is crucial for democratization prospects. Context also matters for democratization, particularly political economic factors, such as a balance of class power and a productive economy; political culture (level of societal identity cleavages) and a minimum of international intervention. Finally, the balance of agency between democracy movements, Islamists, the military and workers shapes democratization prospects.     

The Engage programme and the Government Communication Network in the UK, 2006–2010

The Engage programme was launched in April 2006 by the Government Communication Network (GCN) in the UK. As a civil service body supporting those in government working as press officers and in marketing roles, the GCN under the New Labour government in the period 2006–2010 was involved with the extension of the logic of marketisation to government communication. This article charts this process by examining key government policy documents from this period. The rationale for Engage rested on the assumption that government in the UK needed to adapt its communication approach to reach what were perceived as individualised consumers in society. The extension of the logic of marketisation to government communication that happened under Engage is shown to be consistent with the New Public Management approach to public services under New Labour.

行业协会腐败治理及其刑事责任追究

行业协会有一定的行政管理和服务职能,也有经费来源,故有腐败的条件。行业协会腐败形式多样,对行业协会腐败的治理措施主要是政社分开、加强监管以及对腐败活动追究行政和刑事责任。其中,《刑法》对以个人名义进行的腐败活动有相应的罪名惩处,而很多腐败活动以协会名义进行,《刑法》缺乏对这类腐败的罪名规定。要提高对行业协会腐败治理的效果,应在《刑法》中增设相应的行业协会单位犯罪的罪名。
