Surrogacy,Identity, Parentage and Childrenʼs Rights – Through the Eyes of a Child

In this article I will focus on two important aspects of children's rights which are impacted by artificial reproductive technology (particularly surrogacy); being the rights to identity and the rights to legal parentage. The United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child acknowledges the importance of a child's right to identity, to be protected from discrimination on the basis of the status or beliefs of the child's parents, legal guardians or family members. For many children born through surrogacy arrangements, they may have only one or no legally recognized parent. The adults caring for them may have parental responsibility orders but this falls well short of providing children with the benefits and protections that legal parentage does. The issue of identity can be complex. Increasingly, states have recognized the importance of children knowing the circumstances of their birth and being able to access biological and genetic information including medical information. From a child's perspective the issues of identity and parenthood are intertwined. Given the importance of identity, more needs to be done to ensure that identifying information about children born as a result of artificial reproductive technology is properly stored and readily accessible for these children. Denying a child legal parentage when there are no concerns about the care being provided by their parents cannot be justified when considered from a children's rights perspective.

外国法院判决承认与执行条件问题研究

承认与执行外国法院判决是国际司法协助中一个非常重要的问题,因为其不仅可以及时保护当事人的权利,还可以兼顾诉讼经济效益.但是,由于承认与执行外国法院判决在一定程度上损害了内国主权,因此,各国都不是无条件承认与执行外国法院判决,文章在结合2005年6月海牙<选择法院协议公约>的基础上对国际社会普遍认可的外国法院判决承认与执行条件进行利弊分析.

“中国梦”的国际评价述略

党的十八大以来,“中国梦”不但引起了国内的热议和讨论,还赢得了国际社会的广泛关注.究其原因,与中国的国际影响力,新一届中国领导人的政治宣言以及“中国梦”所体现出的道路自信、理论自信、制度自信是分不开的.国际社会对“中国梦”进行了高度的评价,体现出广泛的认同感,但是国际社会对“中国梦”也存在一些疑惑.我们应该继续增强“中国梦”的有效认同,同时要积极化解疑惑,构建良好的国际环境.总之,实现“中国梦”要充分利用国际机遇,积极应对国际挑战,在国际环境中历练自身,成就梦想.     

Beyond Nancy Fraser's 'perspectival dualism'

The bifurcation between economically and culturally orientated perspectives has become a central trope in critical thinking on the problems of social justice and injustice. This paper attempts a critical explication and assessment of Nancy Fraser's recent work on this problem. She attempts to transcend the culture-economy divide by proposing a 'perspectival dualism' in which distinctive 'economic-redistributive' and 'cultural-recognitive' logics of justice are analytically distinguished and practically combined so as to furnish a balanced strategy for left-critical praxis. The paper seeks to demonstrate how and why Fraser's dualistic perspective fails, insofar as it is untenable to confine recognitive claims to the realm of culture, since they can be seen to underpin both redistributively and culturally oriented manifestations of social struggle. An alternative, multi-axial and 'metatheoretical' conception of recognition is offered, one which, it is claimed, can encompass both economic and cultural struggles within its theoretical ambit.
