中国土地权利立法论纲

土地权利立法是中国物权立法的重要内容,物权法对其如何规定则涉及中国社会的生存和发展。土地权利立法必须以物权立法的价值为指导,以平等独立的现代物权理论为支撑,以公私法相互交融为方法。在具体制度构建上,应以生存利益高于一切来决定土地利用权利制度的取舍,以现代民主的要求来构建土地所有权的运行机制。据此,独具中国特色的土地权利制度就能够形成。

Der gesellschaftliche Umgang mit menschlicher Hilfsbedürftigkeit

Gender relationships are based on social constructions of dependence and independence. Dependence is a status concerning care receivers as well as care givers. Even after years of formal education care work is not yet seen as a profession because of its traditional background in Christian charity and unpaid tasks of women in the family. In the centre of public attention so far are the costs of caring, not the achievements. The critique of the welfare state leads to reductions of benefits and services and to privatisation. Thereby care work becomes a public issue. Considerations of justice can no longer be restricted to the public sphere. Instead, it becomes evident that the private sphere, where a significant part of care takes place, needs to be included in a democratic discourse on justice. There must also be included the discourse on the concept of work, so far often restricted to paid employment as well as the growing internationality of personal services in the sphere of shadow work.     

Just do it?

Referring to the ongoing discussion on quality assessment and evaluative criteria in qualitative methods the article focuses especially on the grounded theory approach in the tradition of Anselm Strauss. It is argued that having its roots in the pragmatist epistemology and philosophy of science the grounded theory approach develops strategies to enhance the quality of processes and results that in some parts differ from traditional quantitative methodologies. Having elaborated on grounded theories’ pragmatist roots, the paper proceeds by presenting major strategies and techniques dedicated to quality enhancement (like dimensionalization and theoretical sampling). Subsequently, both research logic and rhetorics of evaluation criteria in grounded theory (e.g. theoretical saturation, density and groundedness) are being discussed. This leads to concluding remarks on the need for special evaluation criteria in grounded theory-based research.
