Bringing the Falklands/Malvinas Home: Young People's Everyday Engagements with Geopolitics in Domestic Space

This paper draws on recent research examining feminist and everyday geopolitics to focus on the relatively neglected domestic sphere as a space where geopolitical events like the Falklands/Malvinas war are learnt, (re)produced, remembered and contested by young people. It presents qualitative data drawn from interviews with young people from Argentina (Río Gallegos) and the Falkland Islands (Stanley), locations with intimate connections to the 1982 war. It argues that research in domestic environments that engages the familial relations, objects and practices that embody geopolitical pasts can help make sense of how young people (are able to) express geopolitical agency.     

Speaking of Justice: A Qualitative Interview Study on Perceived Procedural Justice Among Defendants in Dutch Criminal Cases

Qualitative interviews with one hundred defendants in Dutch criminal cases examine whether perceived procedural justice is a relevant concern for defendants, and, if so, which procedural justice components they refer to. The study provides a point of epistemological departure from the quantitative studies dominating the field, as it assessed which components of procedural justice (if any) respondents put forward themselves rather than asking about predetermined procedural justice components. The large majority of respondents mentioned procedural justice issues themselves, and six components were at the core of their procedural justice perceptions: (1) information on which decisions are based, (2) interpersonal treatment, (3) due consideration, (4) neutrality, (5) voice, and (6) accuracy. Although these procedural justice components largely correspond with the literature, respondents thus mentioned some components more often, and others less often, than the literature would suggest. In particular, neutrality plays an important role in the Dutch legal context examined here.     

律师经济自由的范畴与保障

律师的经济自由问题是关系律师生存与发展的重大问题。然而,在现实生活中,对律师收入状况的关注则远远超过了对律师经济自由问题的关注。这不仅不利于律师制度健康、稳定地发展,而且还造成社会各阶层对律师职业的偏见与误解,增加对律师诸多不合理的限制,成为律师自身发展中不能     

行政处罚第三人研究——对一个行政处罚案件的展开

在行政处罚案件中,涉及到第三人的案件大量存在。但是现行行政处罚法中并没有明确地设定第三人制度,这对案件的处理带来诸多障碍。设立第三人制度有利于案件的正确处理,有利于维护第三人的合法权益,有利于处罚决定的接受和执行。第三人的设立符合法律公平正义原则和行政法基本原理,可以降低执法成本及节约社会资源。在行政处罚案件中,法律应赋予第三人具有参与权和救济权等权利,这样便于第三人积极参与行政处罚程序,保证其合法权益的实现。     

Acute myoglobinuria as a fatal complication of heroin addiction

A fatal case of myoglobinuria complicating heroin addiction is described. Clinically the patient had no overt symptoms of rhabdomyolysis. Pathologists should be alerted to this rare complication in heroin addicts who die of no apparent cause. The antimyoglobin immunoperoxidase technique is useful in confirming the diagnosis.     

When ADR becomes the law: A review of federal practice

Conclusion With the passage of the Administrative Dispute Resolution Act, the stage was set for innovation and change in federal agencies. Now, part way into the five-year life of the Act, a new administration has the potential to encourage even wider use of ADR at the federal level, providing still more examples from which to develop a clearer sense of best practice. Additional funds, both for ACUS and individual agencies, are vital to providing the level of experimentation, innovation, and documentation needed to ensure success.MIT ProfessorLawrence E.

A LOG‐MULTIPLICATIVE ASSOCIATION MODEL FOR ALLOCATING HOMICIDES WITH UNKNOWN VICTIM‐OFFENDER RELATIONSHIPS*

This research note critically evaluates conventional methods for allocating homicides with an unknown victim/offender relationship to meaningful categories, and it proposes an alternative approach. We argue that conventional methods are based on a problematic assumption, namely, that the missing data mechanism is “ignorable.” As an alternative to these methods, we propose an imputation algorithm derived from a log‐multiplicative model that does not require this assumption. We apply this technique to estimate levels of homicides disaggregated by victim/offender relationship using the Federal Bureau of Investigation's Supplementary Homicide Report (SHR) data for 1996 and 1997, and we compare the resulting estimates with those obtained from the application of conventional procedures. Our results yield a larger proportion of stranger homicides than are obtained from the conventional methods.

回忆我的老师欧阳予倩

我第一次看到欧阳予倩,是在1949年10月,我作为中国青年代表团成员参加世界青年联欢节,载誉归来参加开国大典观礼后的一次宴会,遗憾的是当时没有机会接近。11月19日,欧阳予倩被任命为中央戏剧学院院长,亲自参加戏剧学院附属歌剧团成立大会并讲话。这次讲话给我留下了极为深刻的印象。在这次讲话中,欧阳予倩高度评价了歌剧团的前身华北大学文工一团所取得的卓越成就。他充满激情地回顾说,在党中央的直接关怀领导下,文工一团多年来演出了一些被群众喜爱并传唱的秧歌剧、新歌剧,如《兄妹开荒》《、夫妻识字》《、小姑贤》《、朱永贵挂彩》《、血…     

有关调解法制定的若干问题（下）

(接上期)2.以人民调解法统合各种类型民间社会性调解的方案。这一方案是司法部目前正在论证的人民调解法的基本倾向。其要点是:首先,考虑到司法部的权限和立法提案与起草中的实际问题,既不试图通过制定综合性的调解法建构多元化的调解或纠纷解决机制,也不准备拘泥于目前人民调解的制度框架。其目标是通过这一立法,在提高人民调解法律地位的同时,扩展其管辖范围和权限,最终将一切非司法、非行政性的调解都纳入“人民调解”的范畴。其次,这一方案将突破原有人民调解以地域性自治性为基点的定位,试图将业已存在的各类符合民间调解特点的跨地区…
