The effects of social and political openness on the welfare state in 18 OECD countries

Studies examining the relationship between globalisation and the welfare state tend to focus on the effects of economic dimensions of globalisation, the extent to which a country is part of the world market. Globalisation also has social and political dimensions and the effects of these on welfare states – in terms of social security transfers and generosity – are studied in this article. Data from the KOF Index of Globalisation , the OECD Historical Statistics and the Comparative Welfare Entitlements Dataset are used to analyse the effects of social and political openness on the welfare states of 18 countries of the Organisation for Economic Cooperation and Development between 1970 and 2000. The analyses show that social security transfers and generosity have increased less in countries with the highest increase in social openness and that the welfare state is not affected by political openness.

权力的特性及其要义

权力是一种社会关系。某个主体能够运用其拥有的资源,对他人发生强制性的影响力、控制力,促使或强迫对方按权力者的意志和价值标准作为或不作为,此即权力。法的本质内容主要是自由、权利与权力这三个基本元素构成的,其中权力是法自由和法权利的支柱。权力这个范畴在法学上受到重视,始于近代权力分立理论的启蒙和现代公法的发展,特别是政府职能的扩大,行政权力的无所不在。没有无权力的法。也不容许非法的权力。

试论我国刑事附带民事诉讼执行

刑事附带民事案件执行比普通民事执行更难,有其自身特殊的原因。解决刑事附带民事执行难问题已不是执行机构单方面的努力所能解决的,而需要公安机关、人民检察院、监狱和刑事审判庭等各个部门的通力合作。解决刑事附带民事执行难的最终机制在于建立国家补偿制度。     

State‐led transnationalism and migration: reaching out to the Argentine community in Spain

Abstract This article focuses on when and how states develop transnational policies. It presents a case study of a relatively small emigrant community, whose departure was not simply caused by poverty or crisis, but most recently by an economic and political debacle that questioned people's values and expectations. I focus on the state side of the equation and identify a shift in Argentina's policy after 2003, though also show how such policies came out of a long history of state intervention in population and migration and are now related to human rights concerns and the unfinished process of democratic consolidation. I argue that the state initiates political transnationalism, not migrants, and highlight the importance of some relatively unexplored factors in the understanding of the motivation, intensity and impact of the state's involvement, such as the characteristics of the emigrant community, the existence of specific political projects, the role of some domestic actors and processes, and the nature of international agreements.     

新城市社会学视域下我国当代城市空间生产的特征
