加强和改进流动党员管理的难点及对策

加强流动党员管理既是一个热点问题,又是新形势下党建工作不容回避的难点问题。其难点主要表现为个体流动、行踪无常,党组织组建率低、稳定性差,管理机制滞后、管理渠道不畅,党务工作者队伍建设和管理弱化。要从根本上解决这些问题,必须实现思想、方法和网络上的统筹,推进城乡一体化党员动态管理。与此同时,还要建立健全流动党员教育管理信息网络建设机制,构建城乡一体化党员动态管理的保障机制,健全城乡党的基层组织互帮互助机制,培养建立稳定的党务工作者队伍。

Letter from North Haven … Or What the President Should Do Next

Letter from North Haven is an essay on American national identity that shows the depth of small town mentalities in American life—no matter that that life is mainly urban and industrial. We move from Chicago School sociology to the Catcher in the Rye; from Bob Dylan to Steven Spielberg; from Jacksonian Democracy to the Tea Party movement. The essay ends by using the example of politics in North Haven, Maine, to call upon the President to revive his campaign by explaining America's problems in the plain style and tangible context of small town USA.     

Is the Democratic Party’s superdelegate system unfair to voters?

Among the reasons for the historic nature of the 2008 Democratic primary race was the attention paid to the “superdelegates”. The competitiveness of the primary and the important role the superdelegates played has led to calls for reform. This paper develops a formal model that explains why superdelegates selected one candidate over the other and why some superdelegates committed early in the primary season while others waited. Hypotheses are tested using an original dataset collected during the 2008 Democratic primary. The results suggest that although some superdelegates made their decision based on personal, idiosyncratic factors, for many superdelegates, Democratic voters played the most important role in their commitment process.     

Class voting, social changes and political changes in the Netherlands 1971–2006

To what extent can the decline of class voting in the Netherlands be explained by sociological factors (compositional changes, the evolution of the class structure and economic progressivism) and political factors (a party-merger and changing party positions)? Multinomial logit (MNP) and conditional logit (CL) are employed using the Dutch Parliamentary Election Studies (1971–2006) and data of the Comparative Manifesto Project. We find that the rise of the class of social-cultural specialists is important for understanding changes in the class–vote relationship. Surprisingly, the impact of economic progressivism became more important for left-wing voting. Finally, although there seems to be a clear relation between party positions and the strength of class-based voting, the party positions hardly explain the assumed linear decline in class-based voting.

国外工会兴办企事业的做法和启示

工会兴办企事业的历史,几乎与工会运动自身发展的历史一样长。国外工会大规模地兴办企事业,是在第二次世界大战结束以后。纵观国外工会企事业的情况,工会企事业以第三产业为主,即国际劳工组织所称的社会服务事业或职工福利事业。工会保险事业是国外工会兴办的企事业中最为成功方面,但也有失败的教训。     

论20世纪40年代中国共产党的是主立国思想

中国共产党自“二大”提出建立民主共和国的主张以来,就一直致力于将马克思主义的民主思想与中国革命的实际相结合,在实践中创造性地发展了马克思主义的民主学说,创立了民主立国思想。主要包括民主建国论,代表式的民主体制和自治性的民主治理结构的构想,以及民主立国的原则与框架的创设等。这些思想作为中国共产党集体智慧的结晶,为新民主主义的胜利和中华人民共和国的建立奠定了坚实的理论基础。在今天。它仍有重要的政治导向意义,是当代中国民主政治发展中宝贵的思想资源。
