和谐社会建设视阈中的社会力量培育

党的十六届六中全会首次聚焦"社会建设",这昭示着我国政府职能即将开始一次真正意义的转型,它标志着以个人社会权利为中心的整体性社会建设的开始。从人类社会历史发展过程中国家权力向社会公民权利回归的历程分析,总结浙江的现实经验,可以看出,培育与国家公共权力相对应并能与之进行有效互动、制衡的社会力量,应是和谐社会建设的一个基础要件。

论社会文化对犯罪界定的影响

犯罪虽然由法律所界定，但刑法在犯罪圈的划定上受到社会化的深刻制约，犯罪的范围界定在不同国家，不同历史时期也就不尽不致。立于社会化的视界，透视各种化现象和犯罪界定的联系，不难发现犯罪界定受到法化传统，社会哲学，社会道德和社会宗教等化因素直接而深刻的影响，所以，对犯罪的理解应当植根于化之中，了解并把握立干背后制约犯罪划定的社会化机理。     

中国外交的大局意识

大局意识是中国外交决策的一个重要因素。保持社会稳定、维护国家安全,是坚持以经济建设为中心这个大局的前提条件。中国在制定外交政策和在外交工作中,坚决反对别国干涉中国内政,切实维护中国的政治稳定;努力发展与各国特别是主要大国的关系,促进中国的经济稳定;妥善处理敏感涉外事件,避免引发国内社会不稳定因素;加强与国际社会特别是邻国的合作,共同打击恐怖主义、分裂主义和跨国犯罪,维护民族团结和国家统一。     

评价性别平等的标准及存在的问题

评价性别平等,以社会标准,是在社会生活的各个方面,女性与男性享有同等的权利和义务。然而由于个体的差异,还存在一个个人的标准,即个体对平等的主观感受和评价。不同标准的矛盾产生了一些问题,如性别意识的弱化、性别不平等的加剧以及对男性不平等的忽视。本文讨论了这几方面的问题并提出一些看法。     

Linking self- and social control with deviance: Illuminating the structure underlying a general theory of crime and its relation to deviant activity

The present paper operationalizes and empirically tests the most recent theoretical speculations of Hirschi and Gottfredson regarding an individual level characteristic of self-control and its relation to earlier specifications of control theory as well as the literature on personality. Linkages are drawn between their broad delineation of self-control and personal disorders of hyperactivity, impulsivity, attention deficits, and minor conduct problems. Psychologists disagree about whether such disorders represent single or multiple traits and whether both behavioral and cognitive measures can appropriately depict personality characteristics. Employing structural equation techniques, support for several propositions derived from Gottfredson and Hirschi's thesis is found: Self-control subsumes several personality disorders and is significantly comprised by early behavioral indicators of aggression and fighting, is inversely related to other elements of the social bond, is moderately stable over a short period of time, and significantly predicts criminal convictions. However, questions remain regarding the ubiquity of self-control, the magnitude and meaning of stability, and the power of this perspective to explain all forms of self-reported delinquency.     

Independence Day as a Cosmopolitan Moment: Teaching International Relations

This essay expands upon a teaching approach that I used in my introductory international relations (IR) course for three semesters prior to September 11, 2001. The vast majority of the curriculum of the course is read through Independence Day , a 1996 blockbuster Hollywood film. Beginning with the film and the concept of world order it arguably provides through a fictional moment of world peace (or hegemony, depending how one interprets the leading role of the U.S. in the film and the significance of the Fourth of July holiday as the world's Independence Day, hence ID4 ) students are able to understand several key concepts in IR theory, as well as the major paradigms of IR thought that I present to them. ID4 presents the viewer with the IR field's two great mythological narratives, realism and idealism, and preserves the notion of the nation-state as the predominant actor and unit of analysis for understanding world history and key events in that history.     

社会危害性在犯罪构成理论中的地位探析

目前在刑法学界存在着社会危害性理论备受指责的现象,有的学者甚至认为应将社会危害性逐出我国的犯罪构成理论。这是不科学的。我们应该运用立体动态思维的方式正确分析犯罪概念、犯罪构成与罪刑法定主义的关系,不但要保留社会危害性的地位,更重要的是将其明确作为一个独立的犯罪成立的条件,这样才是对传统犯罪构成理论批判性的发展。     

青少年社会工作专业化与职业化初探
