中国核安全法制度构建的定位

核安全法立法重点在于明确其制度定位并合乎逻辑地进行制度构建。核安全法制度构建应从其目标和主体两方面进行定位,前者包括预防事故和减轻事故后果两方面,后者在于规定许可证持有者的安全管理义务、政府部门的监管职责和公众的知情权与参与权。在此基础上,核安全法立法应当以其目标定位为纵坐标,以其主体定位为横坐标,并按照中外结合的路径展开具体的制度设计。     

群死事故死亡赔偿金同一赔偿的合理性及其适用

群死事故死亡赔偿金同一赔偿具有合理性,综观国际立法以及我国立法和司法实践,同命同价条款的规定和适用在行政法律法规和事故处理中都已经存在。以相同数额确定群死事故死亡赔偿金,有利于解决原告的举证困难和提高诉讼效率,更好地保护受害人利益,还可以减轻法院负担,节约司法资源,维护众多原告之间的团结和平息社会舆论。以相同数额确定群死事故死亡赔偿金是原告的权利。群死应理解为二人以上,对死亡赔偿金可以相同数额赔偿,但对其它合理费用,应根据实际支出情况确定。     

《墨西哥气候变化法》及其对中国气候安全立法的启示

《墨西哥气候变化法》是在特殊的国际、国内立法背景下通过的,是在遵循气候正义、气候公平等法理基础上制定的,有广泛的国际、国内法律基础.该法规定了一系列应对气候变化的原则、规则和相应的实施机制,具有注重“协调与参与”、“透明与责任”制度性设计等特点.中国与墨西哥同为发展中国家,中国在参考和借鉴《墨西哥气候变化法》合理成分的基础上,应采取诸如制定综合性气候变化应对法、加强气候变化应对能力建设、进行减缓性与适应性立法等措施,以应对全球气候变化带来的挑战.     

我国网络立法的发展、特点与政策建议

完善的网络立法是保障网络的正常有序运行与维护网民正当权利的前提。从1994年国务院颁布第一部网络法规至今,我国网络立法工作得到了很大的发展,已经基本上覆盖了各个领域。但与网络技术的快速发展和司法实践的实际要求相比,我国网络立法仍存在着立法层次低、法律法规相冲突等诸多问题,完善网络立法势在必行。为此,文章通过对现阶段我国网络立法发展状况的总结,分析了其内在特点和立法实践中存在的问题与不足,提出了进一步完善网络立法的政策建议。     

论法定继承人范围和顺序的完善——以海峡两岸法定继承的对比分析为视角

《继承法》立法背景的变化,导致在法定继承人范围和顺序方面在现时代存在诸多不适,通过与港、澳、台地区相关立法的对比分析,主张：扩大法定继承人范围至三亲等亲属,增加法定继承顺序位阶并规定父母为第二顺序继承人,规定配偶继承零顺序并增加配偶先取权和用益权,采“固有权说”之代位继承。     

Towards Equality Through Legal Reform

SUMMARY

The focus of this article is the author's experience as one of the organizers of a recent campaign for tongzhi rights in Hong Kong. Tongzhi in general refers to lesbians, gays, bisexuals and trangendered people, and in some cases, their supporters as well. After ten years of public education and political advocacy, the tolerance level of the general public towards homosexuality has increased. However, despite this improved atmosphere, the situation remains far from ideal. Citing the recent legal advocacy campaign as an example, this paper illustrates how the proactive approach of tongzhi activists has resulted in significant progress in the battle for equality. These efforts began with Hong Kong's first tongzhi-led campaign supporting pro-tongzhi candidates to win seats in the Legislative Council, which subsequently contributed to the formation of a Subcommittee within the new Legislative Council with a specific mandate to review the situation of discrimination against sexual minorities.     

Elder Abuse: A Review of Progress in Ireland

Until recent years, Ireland has not formally responded to elder abuse. This article considers the recent developments in Ireland through an ecological framework, which focuses on the multidimensional progress of Irish policy, practice, and legislation related to protecting older people. Although significant progress has been made, the discussion highlights areas for continued development and improvement.     

Public Opinion on Mandatory Reporting of Abuse and/or Neglect of Older Adults in Manitoba,Canada

This article discusses the results of a survey administered as part of a study titled, “Legislation and Service Provision Regarding Abuse and/or Neglect of Older Adults in Manitoba.” Public views of mandatory reporting and knowledge of legislation were investigated in the case where an older adult is living at risk of abuse and/or neglect in Manitoba, Canada. The survey data demonstrate that older respondents stated that mandatory reporting was not always preferable, except when an older adult was clearly diagnosed as incompetent and, even with no evidence, thought to be at risk. With less awareness of the topic in general, and with less contact with older adults, younger adults had much stronger views in support of mandatory reporting in all cases. Little knowledge and awareness of legislation existed in all age groups, although older adults knew more about such abuse and/or neglect than younger adults. Given the projected increase of older adults in Canada in the next 20 years, it is critical that the prevention of abuse and/or neglect and protection of older adults be addressed.     

论中国食物权保障的法律体系及其完善

食物权是人人享有的获得适足食物的权利。我国当前已经形成了一个包括宪法、法律、法规以及司法解释在内的食物权保障的法律体系,其内容涉及到食物生产和流通、食品安全、食物在文化上的可接受性、自然灾害的食物保障以及社会弱者的食物权保障。尽管这些法律对中国食物权保障起到了积极作用,但也存在一定问题。我国应该将食物权明确规定为宪法权利,制定城乡统一的最低生活保障条例,制订营养立法,并在灾害法律中明确规定国家的食物保障义务。     

方孝孺以民本为主旨的政治思想解析

方孝孺政治思想的主旨是民本,他认为君主最基本的职责是养民,“诚以格君”是君职落实的主要途径,治国的根本法则是“均平”,治国路径应该是仁以施治,“视民如伤”, 推行井田制,藏富于民,重用人才、慎选治国理民之吏。为了更好地保护民众利益,方孝孺主张寓仁于法,寓礼于法,“立法利民”,强调立法的目的是卫民,倡导普法宣传,加强执法,先教后诛,“治人”与“治法”并重。方孝孺的政治主张在建文帝时期获得了很好的实践,缔造了绚烂的盛世局面,不失为社会主义和谐社会构建中落实“以人为本”要求的有益参考素材。
