论缔约过失的基本问题及体系建构

对于给付障碍法而言,缔约过失获得了与积极侵害债权同样重大的意义。现今的一些新型法律制度,都是在缔约过失的土壤之上发展起来的。但在这一制度是否以及如何法典化的问题上,一向存在不同的态度,甚至是迥异的态度。从整体情况看,法典化应当是肯定的,但在具体规制上还是应当采取比较慎重的态度。

Trade Measures and Climate Compliance: Institutional Interplay Between WTO and the Marrakesh Accords

This article examines the potential of trade measures to induce more climate-friendly policies, focusing on the relationship between global trade rules and the Kyoto climate regime. At the core of this interplay is the normative consistency of trade-related rules in the two regimes and any hierarchical relationship between them. The stronger clout of the WTO and its compulsory dispute settlement system suggest that issues involving competing claims would be referred to WTO bodies. Such bodies have so far been restrictive regarding the exceptions in WTO agreements to the general ban on embargoes and discrimination. The normative compatibility of the two regimes will also depend on their participatory interplay, specifically how they differentiate groups of actors as to rights and obligations. Non-members of WTO receive the least protection, and their vulnerability to climate-related trade measures is largely determined by their interdependence with states that consider employment of such measures. Among WTO members, the findings of a dispute settlement body would presumably differ depending on the status of the target under the Kyoto Protocol. A non-complier with Kyoto commitments would be more shielded than a non-party, because by joining the Kyoto regime a non-complier has exposed itself to regime-internal and less trade intrusive measures that should be exhausted first. A third dimension of interplay is linkage, or efforts to influence the regime interplay. To date there has only been moderate cross-agency coordination, but considerable attention is paid within each regime, including in the Millennium Round of trade negotiations, to the desirability of avoiding conflict between them.     

Examining Space–Time Interaction in City-Level Homicide Data: Crack Markets and the Diffusion of Guns Among Youth

This paper examines the linkage between crack market activity and gunhomicide suggested by Blumstein (1995), who argues that the arrival ofcrack stimulated an increased availability of guns among juveniles. Thisgreater availability of guns, the argument continues, is responsible for thesharp upswing in juvenile homicide experienced in the United States in themid-1980s. Using city-level data on crack arrests and gun-related juvenilehomicide, we fit a change-point version of the Bass (1969) model ofinnovation diffusion. We find that, in most large American cities, thediffusion process for crack cocaine experienced an onset of dramatic growththat was followed by a similar, slightly slower growth in gun homicidescommitted by juveniles. We further use cluster analysis to find that thespatial patterning of the two processes is similar, starting on the East andWest Coasts and working their way toward other regions of the nation. Gunuse in homicide among slightly older offenders (ages 18–24) alsoexperienced a change at roughly the same time as the juveniles, but the rateof diffusion was considerably milder than for the younger group; offendersages 25 or older generally show no growth in gun-related homicide whatsoever. In addition, there is no detectable surge in juvenile nongun homicide activity. Based on these findings, we conclude that the crack cocaine markets–gun availability linkage is highly plausible, and we suggest directions for future research in clarifying the dynamics of the late-1980s surge in juvenile homicide.     

从微观行为视角看中国政府间纵向关系

改革开放以来,中国上下级政府间互动模式发生了一定的改变,其主要原因在于制度环境的变迁。当前,上下级政府间互动模式具有一定的积极影响,但也存在个人化色彩较重、部分规范性文件法理权威不足、决策执行效率低等问题。因此,完善法制和加强人大的地位,有助于解决目前存在的问题,引导上下级政府间向互动良性发展。     

从治理到善治：我国农村基层治理发展的方向

“三农”问题是中国现代化过程中的重大问题，其中的一个重要方面就是农村治理的问题。新中国成立以来，在农村逐步形成了人民公社的治理模式，但是人民公社的治理模式并不能满足国家现代化的需要，所以人民公社的治理模式被村民自治所取代，对农村的管理方式也由国家对农村的全面的控制逐步转移到政府和村民合作治理，这是我国政治文明建设的一大进步。而治理只是体现了一个过程，善治才是治理发展的一种理想状态，所以，善治无疑应该成为我国农村治理的发展目标。
