推动检察机关基层法警队伍建设发展的紧迫性

随着我国民主法治进程与经济社会转型的加速，社会管理创新的滞后，客观地处于人民内部矛盾凸显期。如此，给政府和公安司法机关化解社会矛盾，维护社会稳定，强化执法为民的履职能力建设和司法机关自身安保力量建设，提出了新的要求新的标准。但检察机关基层法警队伍建设的现状与履职能力的客观要求，差距较大。所以，推动检察机关司法警察队伍建设的持续发展，具有紧迫的现实意义。     

警辅人员惩戒制度研究

我国警辅人员的惩戒制度不完善,导致对警辅人员的惩戒具有很大的随意性,因此,需要从理论和制度两个层面进行细化研究。警辅人员惩戒制度的建构,既不能全盘地接受传统的特别权力关系理论,更不能一概地拒绝,而应考虑到该理论在警辅人员管理中的适用性,并确立相应的规则。警辅人员惩戒制度的建构,应当遵循惩戒与职业收益的比例性、惩戒的明确合理性和惩戒的合法性等原则,进而完善惩戒机构的模式、违纪行为的形式和惩戒的种类等各方面的内容。最终,警辅人员惩戒制度的建构,既要有效保障警辅人员的合法权益,也要实现警辅人员利用的目的。     

“多次违法行为”入罪之思考——以多次非法行医为视角

我国法律规定未取得医生执业资格的人非法行医,被卫生行政部门行政处罚两次以后,再次非法行医的,应当以非法行医罪追究其刑事责任。此种将多次行政处罚后再实施违法的行为纳入刑事犯罪构成要件或者说作为罪量要素的定罪模式是合理的,不违反禁止重复评价原则和刑法谦抑性原则。但为了防止刑事制裁范围的肆意扩大,应从违法主体、违法程序及违法次数上对"非法行医被二次行政处罚后再次非法行医"入罪进行一定的限制,以实现人权保障和惩罚犯罪的有机统一。     

警察权益保护的现实选择

警察维权是公民维权工作中对应的一个特殊群体,警察权益应包括警察行使权力和警察享受利益两个方面,这两个方面都是法律加以规定和保护的,不容侵犯。但警察维权的现实状况不容乐观,人民警察权益保障缺位有诸多原因;有效保障人民警察的合法权益应从多方面着手。     

中国警察权益救济构筑探析

近年来,警察权益受侵害情况越来越严重,这对公安机关的正常运转带来巨大考验。公安机关应端正侵害警察权益案件的应对措施,在法律、管理、制度等方面维护公安民警的合法权益,明晰警察行为准则,完善警察权益救济措施,从而保障警察权益不受损害,提升警察执法自信。     

警察武力之善法良治——论警察武力法的正义价值标准

警察武力法的正义价值标准由标示正义价值方向的基本理念和标示正义价值尺度的基本原则两项基本要件分级承担并贯彻。中国警察武力法有:社会正义与法律正义有机统一、保权与控权有机统一和价值、规范、事实有机统一三个居位"法上之法"的基本理念和危害行为与武力行为法定、危害行为与武力行为相当、武力行为克减和多样化和正当程序四个居位"法上之法"的基本原则。上述基本理念和基本原则,对系统理解、把握中国警察使用武力的基本原则和构成要件、各种规范的内在关连性,以及构思未来的、"应然"的中国警察武力立法具有不可或缺的重要意义。     

Violence in the city that belongs to no one: urban distinctiveness and interconnected insecurities in Nairobi (Kenya)

ABSTRACT

Rapid urbanisation in the global South has prompted attention to the causes and dynamics of urban violence. Yet, much research tends to either analyse urban violence without attention to the broader conflict complexes of which it forms a part, neglecting linkages between different forms of urban violence and between urban and rural dynamics, or conversely study violence in cities without acknowledging the particularities of the urban context. In this article, we conceptualise urban violence, theorise how it is shaped by urban dynamics and explore its manifestations in Nairobi, Kenya. We find that while Nairobi is not uniquely violent inside Kenya, violence takes on distinct urban forms given city-level processes, and also that urban violence has led to policies that increase securitisation and militarisation of the city. Our analysis thus improves knowledge of how criminal and political violence is shaped by and shapes the stability of developing cities.     

A Qualitative Assessment of Stress Perceptions Among Members of a Homicide Unit

Existing research on stress among police assumes the presence of uniform stressors across job roles and borrows upon generic stress instruments to tap stress types and levels. The present study draws upon interviews with 26 members of a metropolitan homicide unit to provide an inductive vantage point on stress perceptions within a specialized area of policing. We provide evidence that the occupational and organizational forms of stress detailed by these officers are shaped largely by the unique nature of homicide work. Among the unique task-related stressors observed include the complexities of homicide crime scenes, time pressures, cases assignment factors, paperwork demands, and long-term ownership over individual case files. A series of structural issues from both within and outside the police agency are identified as organizational stressors unique to homicide work. We conclude with a proposed theory of homicide investigator stress and implications for future research.     

论法律选择中的替代条款——兼评《涉外民事关系法律适用法》第41条

替代条款要求在案件与一国有更密切联系时,排除冲突规则对案件的适用,发挥最密切联系原则的矫正功能。替代条款是法律选择的灵活性超越确定性的明证,是＂方法＂对＂规则＂的融合和革新,是英美法的自由裁量主义和大陆法的严格规则主义的较量。替代条款的盛行同样诠释了法的正义价值和安全价值之间博弈发展的古老命题,彰显了法律现实主义在冲突法领域的一度勃兴和鼎盛。《涉外民事关系法律适用法》在合同领域没有采用我国已有立法和各国立法中的替代条款,实为一大憾事。     

More with Less? Fiscal Decentralisation,Public Health Spending and Health Sector Performance

Decentralisation is considered a panacea for deficient public sector performance by many. However, recent trends of health sector recentralisation in several OECD countries suggest the opposite. Taking on a cross‐country perspective, I examine two hypotheses, namely that decentralisation leads to an increase in public health spending (H1) and to poor health sector outcomes (H2). The evidence I present suggests that decentralising spending tends to lead to larger public health sectors and to poorer health sector outcomes. However, decentralising tax authority has no effect on the size of the health sector and may actually have a positive effect on health sector performance. The broader lesson is that while general fiscal decentralisation research tends to imply that its conclusions are valid for all policy areas in a similar way, sector‐specific insights can reveal a more nuanced view on the consequences of fiscal decentralisation.
