论仲裁协议效力的确定

仲裁协议是仲裁程序启动的基本前提,是仲裁合法性与正当性的基础。仲裁协议的有效性问题直接关系到仲裁庭作出的裁决能否得到承认和执行。仲裁协议具有独立性,并必须采用书面形式,其在特定情况下对未签署人产生约束力。     

劳动合同签订前当事人之权利义务分析——兼谈就业协议书的法律性质

自《劳动法》颁布以来,对于劳动合同双方当事人之间的权利义务关系进行法学分析的文章不少,但是,对于尚处于劳动合同订立阶段的双方当事人享有什么样的权利,承担什么样的义务话题相对较少,能否比照合同法之一般原理,即要约与承诺理论来诠释双方当事人劳动合同签订前之权利义务关系问题值得法学界关注。目前,我国每年400万大学毕业生,不少人签订了就业协议,这样的协议其性质如何,权利义务如何配置,本文借鉴台湾地区"雇佣内定"概念及其他国家劳动合同签订前双方当事人权利义务的理论,对我国劳动合同签订前当事人双方权利义务进行法学分析,并对实践中之就业协议的相关问题进行了相应探讨。     

UNIFIED FAMILY COURTS

Fragmented court systems are especially problematic for domestic violence victims because they typically are involved in more than one proceeding that stems from the same pattern of abuse. The proceedings are handled in different courts and before different judges, who are often unaware of these orders being issued in other proceedings. Consequently, conflicting orders are prevalent and the protection and needs of victims are often not met. A unified family court, on the other hand, provides one court with the subject-matter jurisdiction to handle all family-related matters and one judge to hear all cases that involve a single family, resulting in conflicting orders being issued less frequently. Additionally, the needs of victims are better served as a result of the services component. Given the fragmented state of the court systems in New York and Pennsylvania, United States; Alberta, Canada; and Australia, unified family courts should be implemented in each locality.     

法院调解的目的论

法院调解在我国解决纠纷的机制中居于非常重要的地位.为了梳理调解制度改革进程中所产生的一系列理论和实践问题,追问法院调解存在的目的已成为必须.法院调解的目的可以分为两个层面,一是法院调解的一般目的--解决纠纷;二是法院调解的特殊目的--保障当事者程序自由权的实现和追求效率.一般目的为一切调解制度所具有,也为所有解纷方式所共有,是调解制度实现社会规范、社会正义的结果,反映其为它物而存在的意义;特殊目的是调解制度自身目的和价值的实现,反映其自我存在的意义.法院调解的一般目的和特殊目的共同统一于调解制度的各个构造要素和运作过程之中.     

契约国家村民自治法治实现

国家必须是契约性的,建立在民主、合意、契约基础上的国家,保证了法律的合法性,有助于法律在乡土社会的实施,有助于法治社会的实现.     

法院调解制度中的人权保障研究

法院调解制度的弊端不是制度本身所引起的。“强制调解”的根源在于对“人权”的漠视,我国应该从重视人权保障的角度改革和完善法院调解制度。     

Settling Disputes between Neighbours in the Lifeworld: An Evaluation of Experiments with Community Mediation in the Netherlands

Many neighbourhoods in the Netherlands have reached the stage of colliding subcultures, and interpersonal conflict. The young live next to the old, the rich next to the poor, single people next to families, the white next to the brown and the black, the established next to the outsiders. In some places, this social-cultural abundance leads to fear, uncertainty, and irritation. Not everybody is as understanding and tolerant of diverse lifestyles and thinking patterns as another person is. In places, this diversity leads to new behaviour patterns and institutions. Multi-ethnic community boards are starting to function as mediatory panels for settling disputes between neighbours and neighbourhood residents. In this article we claim that community mediation - a form of alternative dispute resolution designed to resolve interpersonal conflict in the neighbourhood - is both an attempt to rejuvenate the idea of community and a new way to settle differences and interpersonal conflicts between neighbours in the Netherlands. One might even argue that the neighbourhood is a level too high for social intervention and that instead one should focus on a lower level in the lifeworld: the house, the block, or at most, the street.     

Public Values, Private Contractsand the Colliding Worlds of Family and Market:German Federal Constitutional Court,`Marital Agreement' Decisions of 6 February2001 and 29 March 2001

In two decisions delivered inFebruary and March 2001, the German FederalConstitutional Court voided the maritalagreements struck between a man and a pregnantwoman on the grounds that they were the productof an inequality of bargaining power betweenthe parties. These findings, involving anapplication of the fundamental rightsprovisions of the German Basic Law to privateagreements, demonstrate the creeping competenceof the F.C.C. into the sphere of contractualrelations and an ongoing questioning ofthe traditional public/private law divide. Exploring some of the implications of applyingpublic values and constitutional reviewstandards to private agreements, this notecontextualises the decisions within the debateupon competing (and ultimately colliding)social systems of the family and the market.

WTO规则与我国行政程序制度的完善

行政程序和司法审查程序是保证有关影响自由贸易的实体立法与WTO协议完全一致的有效方法。我国现有的行政程序制度还达不到WTO规则的要求，因此，行政程序和司法审查程序是国内立法修改的一个重点。
