Antecedents and Outcomes of Self-Determination in 3 Life Domains: The Role of Parents' and Teachers' Autonomy Support

Due to conceptualizations of autonomy as detachment and independence, research on the parenting–autonomy relationship in adolescence has yielded inconsistent results. In the present study, self-determination is proposed as an alternative way of tapping into the construct of autonomy. An integrated model of the relationships between perceived parenting and teaching styles, self-determination in 3 life-domains (school, social competence, and job-seeking behaviors), and specific adolescent outcomes, was investigated and confirmed. In 2 samples of mid-adolescents (N = 328 and N = 285), autonomy-supportive parenting was significantly related to self-determination in all life-domains. Autonomy-supportive teaching added significantly to the prediction of self-determination in the domains of school and job-seeking behaviors. Self-determination, in turn, was positively and specifically associated with measures of adjustment in the specific life-domains under investigation. Finally, in both studies, indications were found that self-determination acts as an intervening variable in the relation between the perceived interpersonal environment and adolescent adjustment.

“直接适用的法”与合同准据法的确定

“直接适用的法”是指无须援引法院地冲突规则而必须直接适用于某种涉外民商事关系的强制性法律规范。它在涉外合同准据法的确定中的地位有不同观点 ,本文对此进行了探讨 ,并分析了“直接适用的法”与具体的涉外合同法律适用原则的关系 ,认为“直接适用的法”在适用于涉外合同关系时只应作为对一般冲突规范的限制 ,而不是确定合同准据法的首要原则。     

论法律适用中的"契约自由"原则——国际合同的自体法

肇始于16世纪的"意思自治"理论,标志着合同准据法理论发展的里程碑,即客观论向主观论的发展,特别是以意思自治为主、辅之以最密切联系原则的合同自体法理论的提出,更是将合同准据法理论推向一个前所未有的高度,它一改过去合同法律适用的机械性做法,强调尊重当事人自主意识,并将契约当做一个整体来看待,体现了国际私法合同法律适用的潮流和趋势。

Higher education facing the challenges of the information age

It is claimed that traditional higher education has become obsolete. It was justified as long as knowledge was concentrated in the hands of a few experts and in not-easily accessed libraries. However today, the three pillars of higher education - the production of new knowledge, teaching, and the preservation of knowledge - can easily be and more efficiently replaced by electronic means. One can learn whatever and wherever one wants. This can make the diffusion of knowledge far more affordable, more democratic, and less elitist. However, there are a number of social, psychological and societal factors that need to be taken into consideration, serving as counter-forces to the rush to provide electronic replacements to higher education. These factors cast strong doubts on the true value and efficacy of virtual higher education. The solution may lie neither in the wholesale abolishment of institutions of higher education nor in ignoring the opportunities afforded by novel information technologies, but rather in pursuing differentiation between virtual universities and regular ones such that each will excel in its own way. Similarly, we will have to think of differentiation within our institutions so that we come to harvest the new technological opportunities to improve existing higher education.

Caesareans and Cyborgs

This paper argues that cyborg perspectives offer real possibilities for the debate around enforced caesareans and the search for a language to encompass embodied maternal subjectivity. It is suggested, with reference to the fictional narrative of Star Trek, that cyborg figures have the power to disrupt the liberal subject and the body in legal discourse, not least because the plethora of cyborgs challenges simple conceptions of connections/disconnections between bodies. Feminist readings of case law relating to enforced caesarean sections have raised questions about the notion of autonomy at the heart of liberal legalism, have argued that law is complicit with white male techno-medicine's approach to childbirth and focused upon the pregnant woman's lived experience of pregnancy. The recent Court of Appeal decision in St George's Healthcare N.H.S Trust v. S., Regina v. Collins and Others, ex parte S., where the pregnant woman's self-determination was upheld, provides a good opportunity to confront both the liberal story and the idea of connectedness between mother and unborn child.

加入WTO与中国高等教育发展模式的转变

中国加入WTO后 ,首先就要经过解放思想 ,树立“学术自由”、“大学自治”的大学理念。实行大学自治是解决中国大学目前存在的许多严重弊端问题的最好选择。同时应采取以内涵式发展为主 ,外延式发展为辅的发展模式。在我国实现高等教育“大众化”的过程中 ,更要重视精英教育。     

试论条理法在调整特别权力关系中的作用———以公立高校管理行为争议解决机制为例

在大陆法系长期扮演重要角色的特别权力关系已不断变异和逐渐式微,应当积极探索和发展更符合行政法制实践要求的行政法律关系理论和行政法规范体系.实践证明,仅用一般法规范调整特别权力关系有许多局限和无力感,重新认识条理法已成为行政法制建设的新课题,不仅运用一般法规范而且兼用条理法来调整特别权力关系就体现出特殊优势并具有特殊功用.公立高校管理行为关系尚属具有特殊性的一类特别权力关系,许多典型事例表明公立高校管理行为争议解决具有复杂性和特殊困难.积极运用条理法有助于系统和妥善地解决公立高校管理行为争议,有助于全面推进依法行政和推动公立高校和谐发展.     

高校系统“四风”现象的表征、成因及治理对策

当前,我国高等教育事业进入快速发展的战略机遇期,加强和改进作风建设,树立高等教育的良好形象显得尤为重要。通过这些年的努力,高校领导干部作风建设已取得一定成效,但仍存在着"四风"现象,即形式主义、官僚主义、享乐主义和奢靡之风。究其原因,主要有社会大环境的不利影响、监督不健全的重要影响、行为定性难的客观影响和心理成因复杂的主观影响。当前和今后加强和改进高校领导干部作风建设,就是要正确把握和贯彻"照镜子、正衣冠、洗洗澡、治治病"的总体要求,努力实现高校内部治理权制结构的平衡,为高校系统从源头上破除"四风"提供科学的"顶层设计"。同时还要做到"四个结合",即作风建设与师德师风建设、健全制度、强化监督和加大惩处力度相结合。
