IF A THREAT OF VIOLENCE IS PRESENTED,WHEN DOES THE LAW REQUIRE FAMILY MEDIATORS TO BREACH CONFIDENTIALITY?

For a family mediator to protect his client, a third party, and/or himself from unlawfully disclosing a client's admission, the family mediator should use the principles set forth in Tarasoff v. Regents of the University of California when a threat of violence is presented by one of his clients, since many states have adopted these principles through case law and statute to protect third parties from acts of violence. The two most significant factors in determining whether to breach confidentiality are the identifiability of the victim and the likelihood of the potential physical harm. If a jurisdiction has not explicitly done so via statute, the family mediator should nonetheless follow these principles since they are likely to be adopted by that jurisdiction through case law, because the probability of a court's finding a special relationship between a family mediator and a client is relatively high.

遏制公权力异化与腐败的制度伦理向度

公权力异化与腐败是权力滥用的两面,而遏制公权力异化和腐败也是人类历史的难题。虽然人们普遍强调从教育、制度和监督的综合治理模式入手来解决公权力异化与腐败问题,但是从制度伦理视角来分析和遏制公权力异化和腐败则是更为清晰和有效的路径选择。     

论警察道德建设的基本途径

道德教育和制度伦理建设是警察道德建设的两条基本途径。但由于两者都存在着非完善性或缺陷性 ,因而在加强和改善道德教育、完善制度伦理建设的同时 ,必须将两者有机结合起来。     

弱势群体对制度伦理的需求

当前,弱势群体的弱势地位主要是由制度伦理缺陷造成的。只有加强制度伦理建设,从公正的伦理原则出发,维护弱势群体权利与义务的统一,才能提升弱势群体的地位,逐步消除强弱群体间的社会矛盾。     

公民权利与道德权利辨析

现代和谐社会的一个重要特征是公民具有独立的人格和平等的权利。厘清权利、法律权利和道德权利这些"最受人尊敬而又确实模糊不清的概念",有利于以义务为表征的中国传统道德文化的转换和提升。正在成长的中国公民社会和正在实现伟大复兴的中华民族需要一同培育起公民权利意识和公平正义的道德认知。     

家庭暴力和婚姻家庭的伦理底线

夫妻之间产生的家庭暴力是一种不对称的暴力行为。其可分成硬暴力和软暴力两种不同形式。而后者的行为同样令人发指,它所带给夫妻双方的伤害更为隐密和持久。如果说硬暴力是一个和法律密切相关的问题,那么软暴力似乎只是一个和婚姻伦理相关的问题。     

The Jewish population and family in the Polish–Lithuanian Commonwealth in the second half of the 18th century

The sources that can be employed to examine demographic aspects of the Jewish population and family in 18th-century Poland–Lithuania are sparse and mostly fiscal in origin. Since this source material has been preserved only for some periods and regions, few generalizations can be made. First, the authors have referred to the most comprehensive census that was carried out in 1791 by household in Cracow province (województwo krakowskie). It does not allow for detailed family reconstitution, however. Although extended/multiple family households might have been fairly common, the two-generational conjugal family unit seems to have prevailed, and no more than four nuclear families lived in one house. In addition, the age at first marriage was influenced only to a limited extent by the traditional practice of early marriage.

FATHERS AND CHILD ABUSE ALLEGATIONS IN THE CONTEXT OF PARENTAL SEPARATION AND DIVORCE

Fathers' role in child abuse in the context of parental separation and divorce has been the subject of continuous stereotyping over the last several decades. This article examines the stereotypes projected against current research, particularly findings from a study of an experimental family court program designed for the better management of residence and contact disputes where child abuse allegations had been made. These findings are discussed in regard to similar studies internationally. While the two prevailing but opposing stereotypes of fathers' role in child abuse in this context were not confirmed by the research, aspects of the stereotypes regarding fathers' views and mothers' views of each other were supported. Problems associated with the paradoxical position of fathers as the most frequently alleged perpetrators of abuse, the most frequently substantiated perpetrators, and also the most frequently unsubstantiated perpetrators tend not to be fully addressed by the current court process for these disputes.
