寓言与民主

民主问题是当前的热点问题,中国民主问题屡遭西方国家的指责。民主是一种社会制度,没有普适的民主。我们需要借鉴西方民主发展的成果,但民主建设只能走自己的道路。在此将通过三则寓言,对什么是民主、专制做出阐释,对民主建设提供有益的思索。无论正确与否,这种探索都是有意义的,这本身就体现了民主。

Mobilising diasporas for justice. Opportunity structures and the presencing of a violent past

ABSTRACT

This article investigates how the global dominance of the transitional justice (TJ) discourse and practice – and the controversies and conflicts that arise around TJ – have come to make up an important context for diaspora mobilisation. The article looks at the increasingly globalised mechanisms and norms of transitional justice as a set of opportunity structures – political, legal and discursive – which shape diaspora mobilisation. Diaspora engagement in commemoration, truth-seeking and legal justice in relation to atrocities in Rwanda and Sri Lanka is studied. The article shows that in relation to Rwanda, state dominance and divides are largely replicated in the diasporic space, while the Sri Lankan case provides examples of how Tamil diaspora engagement have been able to reverse power dynamics around TJ. Combining opportunity structures with the concept of ‘past presencing’, the article shows how diaspora groups appropriate and strategise in relation to the dominant norms and practices of TJ, and how in doing so the past is performed and experienced in ways which are both personally and politically meaningful.     

Health Risk,Inequality Indexes,and Environmental Justice

Inequality indexes have long been used to analyze distributions of income. Studies have recently begun to use these tools to evaluate the equity of distributions of environmental harm. In response, issues have been raised regarding the appropriateness of using income-based measures in the context of undesirable outcomes. We begin from first principles, identifying a theoretical preference structure under which income-based tools can be appropriate for ranking distributions of “bads.” While some critiques of existing applications are valid, they are not a justification for rejecting the approach altogether. Instead, we show how standard income-based measures can be adjusted to accommodate bad outcomes. Rather than inequality indexes, we argue that equally distributed equivalents (EDEs) are well-suited for this purpose since they account for levels and dispersion of outcome distributions. The Kolm–Pollak EDE is particularly useful, having the advantage of consistently evaluating both bads and their complementary goods (e.g., mortality risk and survival probability). As an illustration, we show how these tools can inform an environmental justice analysis of a proposed Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) rule addressing indoor air pollution.     

遗失物招领付费之研究

随着商品经济的发展,人们的道德素养并未上升到“圣人”的高度,拾而不还的行为在现实中逐渐成为一种较为普遍的现象。经中外对比研究,发现给予拾物人报酬请求权是解决该问题的一条有效途径,而“拾金不昧”的道德缺失也为遗失物招领付费制度提供了土壤。遗失物招领付费的做法在法理和实践中均有可行性,但在报酬比例的认定及该权利的排除适用上须谨慎对待。     

扶贫政策的负外部性及其化解

在脱贫攻坚中,对重点贫困地区的精确瞄准与偏向投入,在一定程度上对非贫困县、非贫困村与非贫困户产生了必然的政策负外部性,表现为县域脱贫结构失衡、村庄帮扶悬崖效应与边缘人群争贫风险。究其原由,在公共政策过程中,竞争性的政策汲取、排他性的政策分配与分割性的政策评价是负外部性的三种发生机理。为此需要建立上下融合减贫机制,探索社区主导发展模式,拓展村民赋权参与空间,通过政策纠正、调适以消解和弥补政策负效应,强化政治决策与分配的正义性。     

试析刘安冤案

刑事和解制度研究

我国发达地区法院系统率先试行刑事和解制度,引发了对该制度公平性和合理性的广泛争议。刑事和解是20世纪70年代西方出现的一种刑事思潮,体现了刑事诉讼价值的多元化趋势,并且在很多国家已经成功的制度化,成为刑事诉讼程序外一种重要的纠纷解决机制。结合我国当前司法现状和基本国情,在一些现有的法律制度中融入刑事和解制度基本的"和解"和"恢复正义"的精神,有利于弥补我国刑事法律制度体系的不足,促进司法和谐。
