民事审前准备程序功能之实现路径——以当事人与法官权限分配为视角

程序主体直接承担程序的法律后果,是推动诉讼程序顺利进行的重要因素。在各国民事审前准备程序改革纷繁芜杂的表象之下其本质都在关注当事人与法官在程序中的地位和相互关系。本文借鉴两大法系审前准备程序中当事人与法官权限分配的经验,在协同主义理论下分析功能实现中主体方面的制约因素,探讨审前准备程序中当事人与法官的权限的分配。     

Gault's Promise Revisited: The Search For Due Process

Fifty years ago, due process was introduced into the juvenile courts, but today children still do not have the guiding hand of counsel at every stage of the proceedings. In assessing the pre‐Gault world, Chief Justice Fortas observed that “[a] child receives the worst of both worlds:…he gets neither the protections accorded to adults nor the solicitous care and regenerative treatment postulated for children.” 1 Fortas opined that “Then as now good will and compassion were admirably prevalent. But recent studies have entered with surprising unanimity, sharp dissent to the vitality of this gentle conception. They suggest that the appearance as well as the actuality of fairness‐ impartiality and orderliness‐ in short the essentials of due process may be a more therapeutic attitude so far as the juvenile is concerned.” 2 The prescience of his observation has found resonance and reinforcement with the 2013 publication of Reforming Juvenile Justice: A Developmental Approach 3 which was commissioned by the Office of Juvenile Justice Delinquency and Prevention (OJJDP). Reforming Juvenile Justice's emphasis on encouraging not only the perception but the actuality of fairness in all domains 4 connects directly to the essence of Gault's message. “Treating youth fairly and ensuring that they perceive that have been treated fairly and with dignity contribute to positive outcomes in the normal processes of social learning, moral development, and legal socialization adolescence.” 5 The research also demonstrates that public health oriented alternatives to traditional court processing promote social connection and positive youth development. 6 The OJJDP report provides a road map for promoting positive youth development and social engagement by demonstrating that supporting such policies improves public safety outcomes by reducing recidivism. In exploring whether Gault's promise of due process has been realized or is still aspirational, this article suggests that our inquiry requires us to think contextually by considering how children and families are treated in and out of the courtroom. This entails consideration of educational, child welfare and mental health services, as well as the scope of legal entitlements. Equity and fundamental fairness, euphemisms for due process, are what will truly effectuate Gault's promise and should be the benchmark for all courts and systems that engage with children.     

Pat‐Downs But No Hugs: Why Prison Visitation Protocol Should be Changed to Help Keep Familial Structures Intact

In the United States there are almost three million children who have one or both parents incarcerated. Parental incarceration negatively impacts children in several ways. Visitation protocol varies across facilities nationwide with no modification in protocol for minors. Parental rights are disrupted by visitation protocol because of cost‐prohibitive access and extreme security measures. This Note proposes a model statute that would change visitation protocol to facilitate a clear‐cut set of visitation processes that are tailored to ensure prison safety while also fostering and maintaining a positive relationship between a minor child and his/her incarcerated parent.     

应对"入世" 转变政府职能的法律思考

中国加入世界贸易组织,为转变政府职能带来了难得的机遇。同时,政府职能也面临着严峻的挑战,必须从法治的角度尽快作出相应的转变,以适应“入世”的要求,促进我国经济的繁荣与发展。     

论马克思的宗教观

马克思宗教观的产生有着深刻的时代背景和理论源泉,其发展有一个渐进的过程。马克思的宗教观有着丰富的内涵,主要有关于宗教的本质、宗教是什么、宗教产生的根源、宗教的发展和灭亡、宗教的社会作用和功能等几个方面。这也构成了马克思的宗教观的基本体系。在社会主义建设时期,应正确领会和灵活运用马克思的宗教观来指导宗教与社会发展的关系,使之更能发挥积极作用,真正做到宗教与社会主义社会相适应。     

双重赋权：中国行业协会的基本特征

行业协会在中国市场经济体制改革中获得了长足的发展。在其成长过程中,出现了企业自主推动、政府主导推动和政府与企业合力推动的三种生成路径。由于中国市场经济是在计划经济基础上逐渐转型的,与西方国家的行业协会赋权的方式不同,中国的行业协会是企业赋权与政府赋权的结合。因此,有必要以此为前提,充分发挥行业协会的作用,构建起政府、市场和社会三者有机和谐的统一体。     

工会在协调劳资关系中的新视点

加入WTO后,我国的劳资关系更加复杂化,劳资纠纷将呈上升的趋势。在此特殊的背景下,应充分发挥工会在协调劳资关系中的作用,以保护劳动者的合法权益。     

理性守法初探

守法问题既是法治理论的组成部分,又是法治实现的基本途径。“法律效力”、“法律功能”、“法律制裁”与守法具有内在关联性,应当树立以主体对法律效力的内心认同为逻辑前提,以主体对法律功能的现实需要为现实动力,以法律制裁的辅助运用为必要保障的“理性守法观”。     

缉毒犬在禁毒工作中的作用——以云南为例

公安部昆明警犬基地自1981年组建成立以来,担负着云南警犬参与缉毒工作的重任,仅2006年,云南利用缉毒犬就查获毒品案件115起,缴获各类毒品45.875千克,抓获犯罪嫌疑人54名。可见,缉毒犬在云南禁毒工作中发挥着很大的作用。由于缉毒犬有着独特的生理功能和超强的嗅觉能力,通过专门的训练后,在缉毒民警的指导下就能发挥其对毒品独特的"搜查、控制、追捕、追踪"等作用,在云南不可胜数的缉毒战果面前,缉毒犬堪称"毒贩的克星"。
