论检察机关自由裁量权

检察机关自由裁量权的构建对我国完善的诉讼制度具有重要意义。当今将起诉法定主义与起诉便宜主义相结合,赋予检察机关更大的自由裁量权,已成为世界检察改革的趋势。我国现行刑事诉讼法明确了检察机关相对不起诉的自由裁量权,但在法学界和司法实践中,检察机关的自由裁量权尚未获得普遍的理性认识。文章就如何加强对检察机关自由裁量权,追求法的公平、程序正义价值,体现诉讼经济原则等方面进行了探讨,并提出了完善我国检察机关自由裁量权的构想。     

Putting Local Associations Into their Context. Preliminary Results from a Swiss Study of Local Associations

The paper presents results from the Swiss case of the European comparative project CID (Citizenship, Involvement, Democracy). This project examines the relationship between political institutional assets and civic and political engagement in several Western and Eastern European countries. The paper seeks to investigate how civic engagement can be generated and shaped by a given institutional and political context as well as by a peculiar community size. The central hypothesis is that the context affects the character of local participation. To verify this, the papers examines two different Swiss cantons: the German speaking Canton of Bern and the French speaking Canton of Vaud. Moreover, for each canton, four local communities of different size have been selected. This research design discusses how participation is fostered by a more open political opportunity structure (the German canton), and how this combines with the size of the community.

试论违约责任形式的确定

对如何确定违约责任的形式,在我国现行合同法律制度和学理研究中规定和研究的较为简略。但这一问题却在立法和司法实践中是极为重要的。在确定违约责任形式时,除了现有的规则和认识外,还应坚持合同自愿原则和当事人约定优先、法定为辅规则以及将违约定金罚则、违约情况下的合同解除纳入违约责任形式的范畴,以充实违约责任制度。

IPO effects: corporate restructuring when a firm goes public

The public affairs of a firm issuing an initial public offering (IPO) are a critical part of the corporate restructuring efforts which firms face during the process of going public. In this paper, Bowman and Singh's (1993) definition is used to illustrate how issuing an IPO is a significant form of corporate restructuring. Public affairs are critical during both the pre‐IPO phase and during the period leading up to the IPO, as the firm must negotiate a heavily institutionalised process to successfully complete the issue. Here, the six‐year life of ‘Deja News’ is used as a way to illustrate and explain the public affairs during the process of preparing for and issuing an IPO. Copyright © 2004 Henry Stewart Publications
