Socio‐Demographic Risks and Challenges of Bare‐Branch Villages in China

China's bare branches, the Chinese name for surplus men, have attracted much attention, yet few studies have focused on the increasing phenomenon of bare‐branch villages. In this literature review, the formation of bare‐branch villages, the impact of such villages on individual bare branches and their families, and potential threats to villages and families are analyzed. It was found that the sex ratio and female marriage migration to prosperous areas are the two main determinants of the formation of bare‐branch villages. Individual bare branches in such villages are affected both physically and psychologically and are isolated in social activities. Their families and villages suffer in many ways. Bare branches may accelerate the spread of sexually transmitted diseases and increase the incidence of criminal behavior and violence. Even worse, because bare branches in a village share many bonds, they may take collective actions that can endanger China's social stability.     

论汉语非施事主语单宾语构式

汉语非施事主语单宾语构式可例示为“苹果榨了汁”,其形义配置为：［非施事题元/主语］+［动词+宾语］。学界对此类句的本体和整体讨论较少。基于认知构式语法的探讨发现：汉语单宾语构式网络中存在施事和非施事主语构式,前者衍生出后者;后类构式隐没或转移施事并彰显非施事,其动因是编码者的不同概念移情;在动作链上此类构式的作用力弱化而矢量变小;此类构式句主语的话语功能是经常用作话题;语际对比和历时调查显示,汉语的语义关系松散和句法简约促成了题元的灵活转换。     

房屋拆迁补偿协议外的国有土地使用权补偿问题

房屋拆迁补偿协议书乃民事合同,对此做出的行政复议决定书应为无效且对合同当事人不发生任何法律效力。2003年发生的国有土地使用权提前收回事宜,应适用国有土地使用权“相应补偿”之立法,其实质是对房屋及其他不动产的补偿,而土地使用权本身仅涉及土地出让金退还问题。补偿协议书中约定对房屋的充分补偿应视为是对土地使用权相应补偿权的行使。在对房屋充分补偿的前提下,再行主张对土地使用权的补偿,违反了“相应补偿”的立法意旨;主张对房屋占用范围以外的土地的补偿违反了土地在民法上的独立性。在国有土地使用权提前收回的情况下,并无“地随房走”原则之适用。     

行政责令行为法律规范分析及立法规范

责令行为规范普遍存在于现行法律中,责令行为规范可分为司法责令规范和行政责令规范。行政责令规范可进一步分为内部行政责令规范和外部行政责令规范。通过对行政责令行为内涵的考量,可以确立特定的界分基准,将外部责令行为中的处罚性责令行为与命令性责令行为进行明确区分。根据法律规范中“制裁”要素的结构,可将具有行政命令性的责令行为规范分为五种类型,不同结构类型体现出不同的法律规范功能。现行的行政责令行为规范存在词义界定不明确、结构选用不合理、行为配置不科学等诸多问题,有必要构建典型的行政责令行为规范模型,以推动行政责令法律规范的统一性、规范性和科学性。     

论临时复制的法律定性

作品在线使用的日益普及,使得临时复制的法律定性成为一个具有理论和实践价值的重要问题。以是否对临时复制件进行再利用为标准,可以将临时复制分为两类。其中没有对临时复制件进行再复制或间接传播的临时复制不属于复制。作品的在线使用所对应的临时复制件仅仅被感知的临时复制不属于复制。     

回观历史 辨识经验 寻找变的力量 ——一个社会工作者的行动研究

行动研究是为了促进改变.从产生至今,行动研究已经发展出科学技术的行动研究、实践取向的行动研究和批判解放的行动研究三种主要流派.台湾辅仁大学夏林清教授在台湾实践和推动的行动研究,是在其导师唐纳德·舍恩(Donald Sch?n)《反映的实践者》的基础上,转承了实践取向和批判解放的行动研究学派,并在台湾30多年的实践中得以丰富和发展而活化了行动研究,它对“改变”尤其具有深刻的解释.夏林清教授强调一个行动者的行动研究应该根植于自己的历史和情景脉络中,承接历史和前人的资粮,从中寻找改变的方向和行动的动力.强调他山之石只有立基于自己的历史和实践才能发挥作用.     

论我国海事行政诉讼管辖权问题

海事行政诉讼案件的管辖权在地方法院和海事法院之间几经移转,引发了学界与实务界的巨大争议。这种管辖权究竟应做如何划归？学界和实务界对此始终莫衷一是,由此严重制约着相关司法实践的有效开展,不利于海事行政诉讼案件的合理审结与相对人合法权益的充分保护,因此该问题亟待解决。     

What if the Custodial Parent Refuses to Cooperate With Child Contact Decisions?

This article considers the failings at present of the judicial system in not being even handed in providing justice for the noncustodial parent, who has for whatever reason been ousted from the relationship and has poor, if any, contact with his or her children. The advice being provided by the current psychologist dealing with such cases is for the judiciary to adopt a much firmer approach. This will lead to the judiciary being respected rather than being considered unjust. The article is concerned with severe parental alienation and provides a solution to the situation to prevent further emotional abuse of children against an absent parent. The author encourages mediation to commence with and then continue when making decisions as to who should have custody of the children who have been emotionally abused via an alienating parent.     

Breaking the Silence of Child Sexual Abuse in the Caribbean: A Community-Based Action Research Intervention Model

In Trinidad and Tobago, little data exists on child sexual abuse, although there are many anecdotal reports of high prevalence. The Breaking the Silence Gender and Community Empowerment Model is a multidisciplinary intervention to prevent and respond to child sexual abuse in Trinidad and Tobago. It is an innovative, gender-sensitive intervention that uses a community based action research methodology anchored in a national framework. Preliminary evaluation of the Breaking the Silence model shows increased knowledge of child sexual abuse, increased willingness to discuss child sexual abuse, and an impact that goes beyond the target communities. This model can be replicated in communities to prevent and respond to child sexual abuse and adapted to address other sensitive social issues in the Caribbean.     

Community-Based Participatory Research as a Social Work Research and Intervention Approach

Social workers are now often expected to base their practice on solid empirical findings, but research can vary in terms of its usefulness and relevance to practice. Some social workers have criticized traditional research approaches, suggesting that they are not consistent with the profession's mission to serve vulnerable and disadvantaged populations (e.g., Finn, 1994 Finn, J. L. 1994. The promise of participatory research. Journal of Progressive Human Services, 5: 25–42. [Taylor & Francis Online] , [Google Scholar]). Community-based participatory action research may be an appropriate alternative that is participatory, empowering, and committed to social justice (Minkler & Wallerstein, 2008 Minkler, M. and Wallerstein, N. 2008. “Introduction to CBPR: New issues and emphases”. In Community-based participatory research for health, 2nd, Edited by: Minkler, M. and Wallerstein, N. 5–23. San Francisco, CA: Jossey-Bass.  [Google Scholar]). This article explores the connection between social work and CBPR, illustrating how CBPR can contribute significantly to achieving the field's goals.
