质询权性质的辨析

就质询的本质而言，质询权的性质既不是人大代表的权利，也不是人大的集体性宪法权力，而是人大代表的法定权力。质询权作为人大代表的一项法定权力，具有不可放弃性、有限性、法定性和强制性。准确界定质询权的性质，有助于确保质询权的运行规范、有序、高效，加强人大代表对“一府两院”的监督。     

促进就业困难群体就业的法律保障

在社会主义和谐社会的建设过程中,就业困难人员的就业问题是关系到公民基本人权、社会繁荣稳定、国家长治久安的大问题。2008年1月1日《就业促进法》正式实施,该法直接确定了针对就业困难人员的诸多援助措施,但在当前的法律语境下,促进就业困难人员就业的法律保障如何得以实现,是值得我们深思的问题。     

CHILDREN'S RIGHTS IN EUROPEAN LEGAL PROCEEDINGS: WHY ARE FAMILY PRACTICES SO DIFFERENT FROM LEGAL THEORIES?

Debates about child custody following parental separation often have been framed in terms of a battle between the competing rights of different family members. In the United States, advocates of mothers’ rights square off against proponents of fathers’ rights, with each side claiming to truly represent children's rights. Of course, not all advocates lay claim to children's rights in contact and custody disputes merely as a tactical maneuver. Some experts believe that children are entitled to (and benefit from) their own, independent legal advocate in custody cases. In theory, at least, the position that children lay claim to a third set of independent rights is strongly held in Europe, more strongly than in many U.S. states, because of the adoption of United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child in Europe, but not in the United States. In this article, we examine children's rights in custody disputes from a European perspective, particularly children's legal right to contact with their parents, as well as the children's right to be heard in custody and contact disputes. We find that, despite differences in legal theory, tradition, and family demographics, European countries ultimately face a familiar reality: Custody and contact disputes are, in reality, more about renegotiating family relationships than they are a matter of a mother's, father's, or child's rights.

尊重党员主体地位和保障党员民主权利的理论基础及时代价值

马克思主义经典作家阐述了尊重党员主体地位与保障党员民主权利的一系列原则问题，为确立党员主体地位和保障党员民主权利奠定了基础。同时，我们党提出“尊重党员主体地位，保障党员民主权利”的重要论断具有鲜明的时代内涵和丰富的时代价值。     

人生观教育：大学生思想政治教育的起点与归宿

高校思想政治教育一直都非常注重培养学生健康的、科学的人生观。面对当前大学生中存在的突出问题，人生观教育应该着重于加强“以人为本、关爱生命”的内容，着力于引导大学生认识生命的价值，尊重自己和他人的生命，努力提升自身生命的内涵和价值。加强大学生人生观教育，首先，思想政治教育工作者应努力树立“以人为本、关爱生命”的新型学生观；其次，要改进人生观教育的形式和内容，使人生观教育充满时代内容和强大的生命力。     

Alternative South–South development collaboration? The role of China in the Coega Special Economic Zone in South Africa

Aid, in the form of financial aid and investment, has become increasingly prevalent in both bilateral and multilateral partnerships in the BRICS. In Africa, the Forum on China–Africa Cooperation provides the official framings for forms of development assistance to the continent, with financial forms of aid available through the New Development Bank and the China–Africa Development Bank (CADFund). This article explores how Chinese international development assistance has influenced South Africa's economic growth and development strategies and is reshaping South Africa as “gateway” to Africa and continental leader. Special economic zones (SEZs) have become a prioritised form of BRICS development collaboration particularly in terms of Chinese trade and investment expansionism into Africa through South Africa. Chinese international development assistance and foreign direct investment in South Africa in particular are very notable and have been strengthened during the Chinese official state visit prior to the Johannesburg BRICS Summit in 2018. The article critically analyses the development policy discourse on BRICS spearheading an alternative model of South–South international cooperation by examining the Coega SEZ in South Africa, hailed as the most SEZ in Africa. The article critically examines the development alternative potential of the Coega SEZ.     

Why is there no securitisation theory in the Korean nuclear crisis?

Despite the fact that the Korean nuclear crisis is one of the most protracted security issues in the world, the research analysing the crisis from the perspective of securitisation theory is curiously absent. This article attempts to pin down some distinguishing features of South Korea’s securitisation of the nuclear threat posed by North Korea, thereby investigating why one rarely sees the implications of securitisation theory in the way that the Copenhagen School theorists would suggest. Borrowing the key components of securitisation theory—existential threats, referent objects and extraordinary measures—this article suggests three elusive characteristics of the South Korean actors’ speech acts as sources highlighting the dilemma. To make the article’s arguments clearer, I hold Floyd’s classification of securitisation theory, which separated the securitisation process into two different stages: securitising move and security practice. While acknowledging the importance of the differences between illocution and perlocution in a securitisation process, this article takes this logic one step further by suggesting the limits of the perlocutionary effect in making the securitisation process complete.     

环境公益诉权及其程序保障——以检察机关提起环境公益诉讼为视角

实践表明,我国保护环境的传统模式即行政执法方式是失灵的。当前,探索司法介入环境保护的新模式是必要的,而环境司法的首要问题就是环境公益诉权的问题。根据我国实际情况,赋予检察机关环境公益诉权不仅是必要的,而且是可行的。同时,还要探索检察机关在提起环境公益诉讼过程中的诉讼地位、处分权的规制、证明责任的分配、诉讼时效等程序机制,以达到既保障且诉权、又加以合理规制的目的。
