Mobilising the Periphery: Brazil's My House My Life Programme and the Homeless Workers' Movement

Brazil's Movimento de Trabalhadores Sem Teto (MTST, Homeless Workers' Movement) has grown dramatically in recent years. This growth was partly provided for by the use of a large government housing programme, Minha Casa Minha Vida (MCMV, My House My Life), which allowed the MTST to construct housing for its members and swell its ranks with thousands of new members. Yet some have argued that the MCMV programme used by the MTST may compromise the autonomy of civil society organisations. This article, by contrast, argues that while the MCMV programme encouraged bureaucratic practices, it also helped to promote the cultural politics of the MTST.     

对20世纪50年代中国宪法学基本范畴的分析与反思

一门学科的生命力首先表现在基本范畴与学术规范的确立。宪法学作为研究宪法现象的知识体系,应确立表明其独立学科地位的范畴与学术话语。中国宪法学发展正处于社会转型期,需要认真反思5 0年来宪法学范畴发展的历史过程,以中国社会的发展为背景,建构中国宪法学基本范畴。     

法律选择方法演变与构建国际和谐社会

法律选择理论是国际私法的核心理论,主要是以各种法律选择学说为载体,具体表现为各种法律选择方法。从十四世纪意大利巴托鲁斯创立法则区别说以来,法律选择方法一直处于不断的演变之中,体现了国际社会追求和谐的要求。本文以法律选择方法的历史演变为线索,以法律选择方法的价值追求——正义为研究视角,探讨法律选择方法的演变与构建国际和谐社会之间的联系。     

Remortgaging Women's Lives: The World Bank'sLand Agenda in Africa

In recent months, the World Bank has issued a series of draft policy reports on land relations. This is the first time in over two decades that the Bank has sought to review its policy on lending in the land sector. Access to the draft reports and participation in the consultation process has, however, been severely limited. Nonetheless, the World Bank expects to issue the final Report by the end of this year. This paper presents a gender analysis of the two draft documents that have been made available to date. It assesses their implications for gender relations in Africa. It explores the World Bank's promotion of formal rural credit and challenges the assumption of the availability of women's unpaid agricultural labour. The paper argues that, far from being over, the struggle over land relations which has characterised the last decade in Africa, must continue. This revised version was published online in July 2006 with corrections to the Cover Date.     

关于知性思维的一点思考

类属边界表现清晰的知性思维构筑在古典形式逻辑之基础上,而作为一种思维方式,渗入人类自我意识的实践活动,其中以古希腊文明为代表昭示了这一过程。思维之发生可以从自然的、社会的以及自我意识的角度去考察,其在集大成者黑格尔那里得了提炼升华。     

私营企业主政治参与中的满意度研究

在私营企业主政治参与的实践中,开展对私营企业主政治参与满意度的研究,可以了解和测定私营企业主 政治参与的满意水平,厘清制约和影响私营企业主满意度的关键性因素,发现改进和提升私营企业主政治参与满意度的 机会和空间,为推进私营企业主政治参与的发展寻求方向和路径。本文参照计量经济学的费耐尔逻辑模型,从六个方面 具体探讨了制约和影响私营企业主政治参与满意度的因素,并指出了获取私营企业主政治参与满意度的具体方法。     

形式法治与实质法治——兼论法治主义与宪政主义的区别

根据法治的价值内涵的不同,可以将法治分为形式法治与实质法治两大类.形式法治是分析实证主义法学传统的法治观念,认为法治就是法律之治;而实质法治则是价值法学传统的法治观念,认为法治必须是善法之治,必须以保障人权和自由为目的.在价值内涵上,实质法治和宪政主义的基本理念相契合,宪政主义构成了法治主义的价值本质.     

Unveiling White logic in criminological research: an intertextual analysis

Critical race scholars have called into question the objective neutrality upon which much positivist social science rests, arguing that it discursively masks how whiteness underpins the normative purview of research design and findings. As the scholarly securing of whiteness takes shape through explicit and discursive mechanisms, this article examines how it is manifest in criminological research through an intertextual analysis of contemporary peer-reviewed scholarship. Examining 558 articles in five recognized journals, this paper documents how blind spots towards race and racial stratification surface in criminological research, arguing that most of the articles analyzed do not simply ignore White privilege; they actively uphold it. Findings suggest that they do so through two means: first by whitewashing race, that is, disregarding how race and racism can differentially affect acts and trends of crime and deviance, and secondly, by narrowly representing race as merely explanatory variable without querying the broader power relations it marks. After discussing how these patterns reveal and uphold whiteness as a normative value, we conclude with a discussion of preliminary steps aimed at exposing and unpacking how White logic informs the field.     

政府与社会组织关系演进的历史逻辑

从总体性二元合一走向分化性二元合一,解决分化与耦合两个方面的问题,是中国政府与社会组织关系演进的总体态势。运用结构功能主义视角,可以发现,演进历经让渡与承接、规范与依附、激活与协同等阶段,由政府与社会组织的功能性界分,到基于责任结构整合的政会功能黏附,逐渐发展为基于全面结构整合的政会功能分化与耦合。演进的基本逻辑,是政府主导下功能演变与结构调整的互动,即由政府主导的演进轨道、由功能演变与结构调整互动而构成的演进机制。展望未来,分化性二元合一体系的完善,必须按照现代国家治理的要求,在政府与社会组织之间打造共建、共治与共享的结构功能系统,实现基于责任结构契合的功能目标一致、基于权力结构合理的功能形式耦合、基于利益结构规范的功能输出互益。     

融合与分离:统一战线的衍化逻辑

统一战线是中国革命、建设和改革事业胜利的重要法宝.从历时性的角度讲,中国共产党90年的宝贵经验已经深刻地检验了统一战线法宝的实然价值.透过历史现象究其本质,统一战线就是融合与分离的不断衍化过程.而以人民利益为核心的融合与分离,是中国共产党领导的统一战线发生、发展和衍化的内在逻辑.
