'Between a Rock and a Hard Place': The Coalition,the Davies Commission and the Wicked Issue of Airport Expansion

In 2010, the Conservative‐Liberal Democrat Coalition placed a moratorium on airport expansion in the south‐east of England. In office, however, it has faced a sustained political campaign from supporters of the aviation industry and expansion, leading to the appointment in September 2012 of the Davies Commission on airport capacity. This paper critically evaluates this nascent policy reversal in aviation policy, analysing the political backlash in favour of expansion and the political mediation of such demands by the Coalition. It argues that while the shifting political context has placed new pressures on the coalition, its current difficulties cannot be divorced from the continued resonance of the logic of aviation expansion embedded in British institutions at the end of the Second World War. The paper concludes with an assessment of the challenges facing the Davies Commission, the coalition and campaigners, when set against the continued ‘grip’ of aviation on our collective consciousness.     

大力推进城市管理部门的体制改革——基于大部制语境下的思考

No space for citizens? Conceptualisations of citizenship in a functional region

This article aims to discuss whether there is such a thing as citizenship performed at the level of the sub-state region and, if so, how this can be studied. It is suggested that aspects of citizenship should be studied not only in the context of sub-state administrative units, but also in the context of more loosely interconnected functional economic regions. The main argument for this is that, although there is no ‘contract’ between the polity and the citizen in these functional regions, they are often highly politicized spaces, governed by coalitions of public and private actors whose actions can be of considerable importance for those inhabiting them. It is also suggested that, in the absence of formal rights and institutionalized relations between citizens and polity, we need to explore how ‘citizens’ and ‘citizenship’ are conceptualized by the polity in these regions more broadly. The article focuses (a) on the conditions for citizenship in the functional region and (b) on those discourses of citizenship that emerge under the conditions identified. A tentative conclusion is that, in the absence of formal citizenship rights connected to the functional space, a discourse about citizens and citizenship has emerged, which is focuses solely on citizens' capacity to contribute to economic growth.

《民法典》实施背景下意定监护功能异化之矫正

我国民法将监护作为补足自然人行为能力之手段，导致监护被行为能力侵蚀和遮蔽，于功能上由关爱走向限制。法律剥夺被监护人进行民事行为的自我决定权，致使被监护人不得不托庇于监护人。《民法典》引入意定监护，本为克服法律整齐划一规定之不足。但由于与行为能力挂钩，意定监护困顿于监护人选择的狭窄视角，极大地减损了功能矫正力度。解开意定监护功能异化之结，需要找寻在不违背基本法理情况下将意定监护与行为能力脱钩的办法。通过目的解释，经由解释论路径重构行为能力与监护关系，使意定监护回归本人利益保护这一立法目的，系可行的路径。对《民法典》第28条和第33条作目的性限缩，将其限于自然人行为能力欠缺情况下监护的适用；而将行为能力非欠缺时的监护，视为一个立法未予规定之悬而未决的问题，通过运用民事法理和适用民法基本原则进行调整，系可行的方式。
