日本金融机构破产处理

泡沫经济崩溃后日本爆发金融危机,金融机构破产风潮由中小规模向大型金融机构波及。在金融机构破产制度建设方面,日本“护送船队”式行政保护凸显制度缺陷,政府实施了从时限性措施到永久性长效处理框架的制度改革,建立健全了常规处理和应对危机事态的特别处理机制,形成了以中央银行特别融资、存款保险制度和金融机构破产处理框架为中心的金融安全网,为维持信用秩序稳定、防止金融系统性风险扩散建立了较为完善的制度保障。     

Comparing the access conditions for minimum income support in four EU member states for national,EU and non-EU citizens

This research analyses the conditions imposed on national, EU and non-EU citizens who wish to access minimum income (MI) benefits within four EU Member States, specifically within Finland, France, Ireland and Spain. The primary aim is to identify and compare the required MI access conditions. Furthermore, focus is given to the residence requisites, which are discussed in relation to relevant supranational regulations in order to detect possible multilevel implications. The paper concludes with the identification of different MI conditions, such as stricter age requisites in France and Spain. Moreover, the study of national cases allows for consideration of how the EU social protection floor works at the national level. In this regard, the restrictions that affect EU/EEA migrant jobseekers and economically inactive population groups who wish to access MI in Finland, France and Ireland show the limits of the EU minimum social assistance floor, only recognised for EU/EEA migrant workers. Finally, implications arise according to human rights instruments such as the European Social Charter, which demands that social assistance shall not be confined to nationals or to certain categories of foreigners, allowing for comparison between the different personal scopes of the equal treatment principle required by the distinct supranational levels.     

基于治本安全的监社共建刑罚矫正模式研究

通过刑罚矫正罪犯使其再社会化,避免重新犯罪,是监狱和社会的本质安全。社会和监狱在刑罚执行过程中应主动加强矫正业务合作,以治本安全为导向,重视刑罚矫正社会化发展,探索建立以社会和监狱为双主体的联动矫正制度,以更好适应新时期共建共治共享社会治理格局的要求。     

The Negligence Standard: Political Not Metaphysical

This contribution distinguishes two kinds of responsibility: the basic (or ‘metaphysical’) kind that we all inescapably have as functioning human beings; and the assignable (or ‘political’) kind that connects each of us with some particular tasks, and not with others. Having explored some differences between the two, and in particular the role of law's authority in connection with each, the discussion turns to the negligence standard, especially but not only as it figures in tort law. Recently, several philosophers have attempted to find a role for the negligence standard in the metaphysics of basic responsibility. This contribution resists that development and stands up for the traditional lawyer's view that the negligence standard belongs to the pliable politics of assignable responsibility. Basic responsibility, it is argued, is fundamentally strict.     

论职务协助的程序

在行政法上,职务协助是一个重要却备受冷落的制度。综观各国行政法制发达的国家,都规定了较为系统的职务协助或者相关的制度。然而,我国行政法学界对此似乎缺乏应有的关注,研究的广度和深度都还有待于进一步加强。     

对完善我国流浪乞讨人员救助法制的几点思考——基于对生存权的公共性认知

流浪乞讨人员生存权及其实现方式的确认和保障,是我国行政法治研究的重要课题。承认流浪乞讨人员生存权具有公共性,并基于对生存权公共性的认知,从法律规范和制度操作层面对流浪乞讨行为的界限、社会救助机构的强制救助权及救助管理制度做出系统安排,是完善我国流浪乞讨人员救助法制的现实路径。     

海峡两岸背信罪比较研究

《海峡两岸共同打击犯罪及司法互助协议》以列举的方式明确了海峡两岸共同打击的犯罪行为,但两岸对协议中涉及的背信罪行为在刑法的罪名形式、内容表达以及行为的刑罚可责性上都有诸多差异。与台湾“刑法”规定的背信罪行为相较,大陆法律在此行为上存在多种不同性质的法律规制。为使两岸在该行为上的司法互助得以利益均衡,实现两岸对背信行为司法互助的最佳路径是：以台湾背信罪所指涉的行为为准,比较大陆刑法规范对这些行为的法律处置,形成与台湾背信罪行为相同质的多个罪名进行司法互助;大陆未形成刑事处置之台湾背信罪行为则通过个案协商解决。     

完善我国刑事法律援助制度的基本思路——规范的自省与政策的关照

我国刑事法律援助制度的不完善,在一定程度上制约了我国刑事诉讼制度的发展。刑事法律援助是一种国家责任,国家应当切实承担起提供刑事法律援助的责任而不能将义务转嫁给律师。我国刑事法律援助制度存在法律规范和制度运行两方面的问题,应当通过规范的自省和政策的关照加以完善。当然,刑事法律援助制度根植于整个刑事诉讼制度之中,要真正提高刑事法律援助的水平,还必须改善刑事诉讼的整体环境。     

Impact of human rights on U.S. foreign assistance to Latin America

Building upon the contributions of previous studies of U.S. foreign aid, this study examines the relationship between human rights and U.S. foreign assistance. Concentrating on the years 1979–1985, the impact of human rights conditions on both economic and military aid allocations to Latin America is analyzed. The results of this analysis indicate that though other factors have a significant effect upon aid allocation, human rights are an important factor in determining the allocation of both U.S. economic assistance and U.S. military assistance. The findings suggest that those countries with better human rights conditions are likely to receive more U.S. aid than others.     

The Cybercrime Convention Committee's 2017 Guidance Note on Production Orders: Unilateralist transborder access to electronic evidence promoted via soft law

This article provides a critical analysis of the Council of Europe Cybercrime Convention Committee's Guidance Note of Production Orders, published on 1 March 2017. The article looks at the legal controversies surrounding production orders with a cross-border element. It explains the Guidance Note's background and origins, the basic provisions in the Cybercrime Convention allowing the law enforcement authorities to order and obtain certain information and discusses the requirements that follow from the relevant provisions of the Convention. This analysis is complemented by four critical remarks on the way the Guidance Note pushes the boundaries of acceptable treaty interpretation on the necessity of the Guidance Note, its position in regard to extraterritorial enforcement jurisdiction and sovereignty, its reticence towards fundamental rights and its refusal to define or clarify the important notion of “subscriber information”. The article argues that unilateralism is not a solution. Instead of soft law plumbing, what is needed is an agreement between sovereign states checked by their constituencies.
