政府间与非政府间国际组织在全球环境治理中的有效性评估

全球环境治理是当今国际社会的重要议题,其治理主体呈现多元化趋势,治理模式也由原有的国家中心治理模式向有限治理模式、网络治理模式发展,呈现多方向的新变化。除国家政府之外,就国际组织而言可分成政府间国际组织(IGO)与非政府间国际组织(INGO)两种。文章将探究在全球环境治理问题上是否政府间国际组织可以替代非政府组织的作用,并以绿色和平与联合国环境规划署两大组织为例,从国际社会对全球环境治理体制的功能需求方面进行案例对比分析与治理有效性的评估。

Ethnic Classification in Global Perspective: A Cross-National Survey of the 2000 Census Round

Academic interest in official systems of racial and ethnic classification has grown in recent years, but most research on such census categories has been limited to small case studies or regional surveys. In contrast, this article analyzes a uniquely global data set compiled by the United Nations Statistical Division to survey the approaches to ethnic enumeration taken in 141 countries. The motives for this analysis combine theoretical, applied, and policy objectives. I find that 63% of the national censuses studied incorporate some form of ethnic enumeration, but their question and answer formats vary along several dimensions that betray diverse conceptualizations of ethnicity (for example, as “race” or “nationality”). Moreover, these formats follow notably regional patterns. Nonetheless, the variety of approaches can be grouped into a basic taxonomy of ethnic classification approaches, suggesting greater commonality in worldwide manifestations of the ethnicity concept than some have recognized.

Does Society Matter? Life Satisfaction in the Enlarged Europe

Life satisfaction is quite heterogeneously distributed across countries of the enlarged European Union. Previous research has shown how living conditions within individual countries, such as access to material and emotional resources, are important for personal well-being, but it has been less successful in explaining differences between countries. This article investigates whether it matters in which political and economic circumstances people live, as well as whether their particular perception of the quality of their societal environment plays a role. People are well aware that the institutional and cultural settings in which their lives are embedded create opportunities and limitations: within individual countries, perceptions of society influence life satisfaction outcomes irrespective of access to resources. However, their importance for well-being differs across Europe: perceptions of societies are highly decisive in countries that provide only a minimum of social security and in which the reliability of political institutions is poor. In rich and stable countries, the impact is weaker and private social support becomes more important. In addition to these country-specific weights of life satisfaction determinants, life satisfaction variations between countries can be explained to a large extent by taking into consideration the economic performance, the social security level, and the political culture in a country—all in all, general conditions that enable people to live a respectable life.     

朝核问题之中国作用的双重性及策略选择

自2002年10月以来,朝核问题一直成为国际社会关注的热点问题。"三方会谈"以及6轮"六方会谈"的成功召开把朝核问题纳入到一个多边框架下解决。尽管中国在朝核问题上发挥了其他国家所不可替代的作用,但是,从朝核问题的发展过程上可以看出,中国的作用也受到了一定的局限。尽管解决朝核危机的钥匙不在中国手中,然而中国在朝核问题上的立场和今后的政策趋向不容忽视,它不仅与中国的当前利益密切相关,而且也将影响到中国未来所处的国际环境,关系到朝鲜半岛、东北亚地区乃至整个国际社会的安全与稳定。     

联合国改革努力的历史发展

联合国改革长期以来是国际社会关注的焦点,为了理解这一进程的未来走向,有必要清醒地认识它所经历的历史发展.联合国改革涉及组织结构、管理程序以及宪制安排三个方面,涵盖国际安全以及经济和社会问题两个主要领域,反映出各国在这些问题上的不同立场和观点.联合国改革努力的不同规划表明,在这些领域取得实质性突破仍然困难重重.     

对完善我国外国法查明制度的探讨

在当代国际社会,一国能否正确把握国际私法中外国法内容的查明制度,已经成为该国法院能否保障司法程序公正和促进国际民商事关系协调发展的重要基础.然而,我国对外国法的性质、外国法查明的责任主体、各责任主体同责任的划分、外国法查明的途径、外国法无法查明的认定以及外国法无法查明时的处理方法等问题的规定在立法、理论和实践上尚存在一些问题.借鉴国外的有益经验,对上述问题进行深入探讨,将有益于促进我国外国法查明制度的完善和国际民商事关系的协调发展.
