从娶妾议论看《儒林外史》相关情节写作用意

《儒林外史》假托明代,故事中多有涉及违法处,如庶民的违法娶妾。在第三十四回,杜少卿希望国家立法限制娶妾,却不知随意娶妾实已违法,也不知明代已有与其方案极其接近的法律。这段描写,究竟是作者不知道明朝制度所致,还是别有创作目的在焉,值得仔细探讨。由于清乾隆五年删定律例时,删除了明律中有关娶妾限制之款,而《儒林外史》作者明显很熟悉法律,于是作者之知不知明代相关规定,不仅关系到第三十四回中相关叙述的创作年代问题,还涉及作者是否为吴敬梓、原书形态等问题。     

修改《村委会组织法》若干问题探讨

今年是《中华人民共和国村民委员会组织法（试行）》颁布20周年,全国人大常务委员会正式颁布《中华人民共和国村民委员会组织法》9周年,社会各界对村组法修改的呼声很高。从宏观层面分析认为对村组法进行“中改”最为适宜;从微观层面分析认为修改村组法重点是要完善民主决策、民主管理、民主监督的制度保障,特别是要完善罢免制度、加大对村民会议和村民代表会议的立法力度。     

论国有企业的企业法主体概念之选择

国有企业概念未能表述企业法律形态,不能作为企业法主体概念.我国国有企业可表述为六类企业主体概念.即公共企业、公有公司、相对公有公司、公产合作社企业、公产参股公司、公产合作企业.这六种企业又统称公产企业,即由公有资产投资者全部或部分投资形成的、含有公有产权的、具有经营性特征的各种形式的法人或非法人经济组织.公产企业概念比国有企业概念能更准确地表达这类企业的经济性质,更好地反映现代企业制度的特征,更好地体现现代企业的内在规律,比国有企业概念更符合市场经济条件下的企业法主体概念的要求.我国应整合现行国有企业法律法规,完善以公产企业为企业法主体概念的企业立法.     

《物权法》对构建法治政府的积极推动和深远影响——从公法学角度透视

《物权法》是民法的重要组成部分,但它有着明显的公法因素,对国家公权力及其行为必然带来深刻的影响。这些影响突出表现为:必须确立物权的平等保护观念、提高对私有财产的保护意识、倡导高效利民的服务理念等。今后应当通过构建统一登记的工作机制、登记错误的赔偿机制、国有财产的管理机制和征收征用的程序机制等,切实保障该法律的有效实施。     

Developing spatial inequalities in carbon appropriation: A sociological analysis of changing local emissions across the United States

This study examines an overlooked dynamic in sociological research on greenhouse gas emissions: how local areas appropriate the global carbon cycle for use and exchange purposes as they develop. Drawing on theories of place and space, we hypothesize that development differentially drives and spatially decouples use- and exchange-oriented emissions at the local level. To test our hypotheses, we integrate longitudinal, county-level data on residential and industrial emissions from the Vulcan Project with demographic, economic and environmental data from the U.S. Census Bureau and National Land Change Database. Results from spatial regression models with two-way fixed-effects indicate that alongside innovations and efficiencies capable of reducing environmentally harmful effects of development comes a spatial disarticulation between carbon-intensive production and consumption within as well as across societies. Implications for existing theory, methods and policy are discussed.     

From the Heart of the Middle East, the Energy of the Future: North Adriatic LNG Terminal

Petroleum is still our most important energy source and it will certainly remain that way for a long time to come. Moreover, an end of oil use is not foreseeable at the present. However, reserves are declining. Liquefied natural gas (LNG), on the other hand, is available in abundant quantities. Nevertheless, the use of LNG is useful to solve a significant problem: the LNG power stations produce much lower CO₂ emissions than petroleum. In fact, an 80% carbon dioxide reduction should be possible, as several companies are currently working on cleaner power stations, such as the LNG ones. Alternative energies are often not used enough as sources of energy. It is therefore all the more important that energy companies put a great deal of effort into supporting sustainable energy and developing cleaner technology, in order to make people less dependent on power from petroleum.      

Chinese Contract Law and the Economic Reform

China’s previous contract laws had many contradictions and failed to meet the needs of China’s developing market economy. Although some problems still need to be dealt with, the unified contract law is more advanced, systematic and plays an important role in fostering and encouraging transactions.

我国国内市场经济的发展和国外成功的立法例 ,为我国制定民法典创造了条件 ,特别是我国法律文化、科技发展及民法自身发展变化趋势 ,奠定了我国民法典制定的指导思想。其表现为从我国发展市场经济的国情出发 ;从我国法律传统和法律文化出发 ;反映科技发展对民法的要求 ;符合当代民法发展的总趋势。由此决定我国未来民法典的体系可采用七分法 ,即分为七编 ,分别为总则、人格法、亲属法、物权法、合同法、继承法、侵权法。     

论我国野生动物资源所有权主体的多元化

野生动物所有权制度对野生动物的保护、开发和利用意义重大,但对野生动物是实行专属国家所有还是多重所有素有争议。鉴于我国野生动物国家所有权制度实效性偏低,已不能适应野生动物保护的新形势,笔者主张建立以国家为主体的多元化野生动物所有权制度。
