Incentives to Rebel,Bargaining, and Civil War

To fully understand the effects of factors that encourage rebellion, we must differentiate between the way such factors influence mass decisions to join an ongoing rebellion and the way they influence the level of concessions offered by the government. We analyze a three-player bargaining model that allows us to do so. Our results indicate that governments tolerate a greater risk of conflict with their chosen concessions when any conflict that does occur is likely to take the form of a limited, rather than popular, rebellion. We demonstrate that rebellions are more likely to be popular when the general populace is relatively dissatisfied with the status quo and when the government is relatively incapable of putting down rebellions. Widespread poverty and low state capacity might therefore be associated with a lower likelihood of conflict, but a greater probability that the general populace will participate in any conflict that does occur.     

浅析真值表在复合命题中的判定作用

真值表方法在形式逻辑中占有着重要地位,特别在复合命题中,具有判定作用。利用它可以直观而又精确地判定若干复合命题是否等值,若干复合命题之间的关系,复合命题推理是否有效,以及在日常生活中能够解决一些实际问题。研究这一内容,对于掌握形式逻辑中复合命题及其推理这部分理论知识以及实际运用,具有重要意义。     

论不真正不作为犯的作为义务来源

对于不真正不作为犯的义务来源,学说史上共形成了三种作为义务说,即形式的作为义务说、实质的作为义务说和二元的作为义务说。通过对以上学说的深入分析和探讨,二元作为义务说应更具合理性。不真正不作为犯的作为义务来源应是实质要素与形式要素的统一,前者界定了作为义务的事实性根据,后者则统一了作为义务的规范性要式。     

行政程序中的形式与形式主义

行政程序不仅具有形式性属性,也具有实质性属性.我国行政程序法制发展重形式、轻实质的倾向已经在法律实践中产生了不良后果.这种偏颇主要源自三个法律程序观的误识:一是行政程序的泛司法化误识;二是行政程序的反实质化误识;三是行政程序的非法律化误识.必须强调行政程序的实质因素与形式因素并重的良性行政程序发展观.     

Formal Legal Truth and Substantive Truth in Judicial Fact-Finding -- Their Justified Divergence in some Particular Cases

Truth is a fundamental objective of adjudicative processes; ideally, substantive as distinct from formal legal truth. But problems of evidence, for example, may frustrate finding of substantive truth; other values may lead to exclusions of probative evidence, e.g., for the sake of fairness. Jury nullification and jury equity. Limits of time, and definitiveness of decision, require allocation of burden of proof. Degree of truth-formality is variable within a system and across systems.     

On the Dual Form of Acoustic Beauty

To analyze and value of the acoustic beauty, we must acknowledge the difference between the beauty of form and the beauty of implication. The so-called “acoustic beauty” refers to the beauty of the sound that directly evokes pleasure in the sense of hearing. It is actually represented as the beauty in the form evoking acoustic pleasure and the beauty in the implication enriched by human imagination, association, and understanding. This article explores into the physical foundation and the physiological mechanism of the acoustic beauty from the musical perspectives of frequency, pitch, volume, tone and quality. It then discusses the beauty of form from the musical perspectives of melody, harmony and rhythm and the beauty of implication on the basis of understanding, imagination and association. Finally the author puts forward his aesthetic view of the dual form that integrates both the acoustic beauty and the implication beauty free from unbalanced biases.     

治理论还是法治论当代中国乡村司法的理论建构

当前乡村司法呈现出双二元结构形态：基层法官的司法有着法治化和治理化两种形态，乡村干部的司法则是治理化形态。综合考量乡村社会变迁及其所受到的结构性约束，双二元结构形态可以呼应乡村社会的司法需求，回应乡村纠纷的延伸性和非适法性，适应中国乡村的经济基础。在很长时间内，乡村司法都应当在法治化和治理化之间保持某种平衡。

民法法典化的价值、模式与学理

文章首先回答中国为什么需要民法典,民法典的价值理性和形式理性为其提供了存在上的正当性;其次探讨了中国民法法典化的模式,指出应以德国五编制为基础;最后提出了中国民法法典化的学术条件,成熟的学理研究是法典化的理论背景;同时作者还指出,民法典作为塑造世俗生活的根本规范,其功能极其有限,我们不应寄予民法典过大的希望。     

改革开放以来中国公民政治权利的新发展

改革开放以来，中国公民政治权利的新发展主要体现在公民从形式参与向实质参与的转变。这一转变以公民政治权利结构的优化、功能的转型和法律制度的建立健全等三个方面为基础。结构优化表现为公民政治权利主体的广泛性、自主性、平等性得到发展以及公民政治权利内容的丰富，公民政治权利的功能逐渐趋于完善，人民代表大会制度的恢复与发展、依法治国方略的确立以及政党制度的完善等都为公民政治权利的实现提供了切实的保障。
