“I Really Belong Here”: Civic Capacity-Building among Returning Citizens

This article focuses on unlikely movement actors whose civic engagement has been understudied: people with criminal records (“returning citizens”). We present findings from 18 months of ethnographic research with members (leaders) of Fighting to Overcome Records and Create Equality (FORCE), a civic group led by returning citizens. FORCE leaders received institutional support from Community Renewal Society (CRS), a larger faith and community-based organization, to lead a rights reform movement in Chicago. Findings suggest that FORCE leaders constructed notions of kinship, recognition, and power through civic capacity-building efforts—and that social belonging was core to such capacity-building efforts. While bonding social belonging occurred as FORCE leaders formed kinship with people facing similar social and economic marginality, bridging social belonging emerged as leaders felt recognized by CRS staff organizers, affiliates, and elected officials. Bonding and bridging social belonging enabled FORCE leaders, who faced constant social exclusion in society, to experience much needed kinship, recognition, and power. Future studies should continue to uncover how local capacity-building processes have life-changing relational effects on movement participants from socially and economically marginalized groups.

海南省2003年生态足迹计算与发展能力分析

利用生态足迹与发展能力的基本理论,对海南省和各县(市)2003年的生态足迹与发展能力进行了计算和分析。结果表明,海南省2003年人均生态足迹为2.1338hm2,人均生态承载力为1.3111hm2,人均生态赤字为0.8227hm2;12个县(市)存在生态赤字。海南省及其大多数县市的资源利用效益比较低,经济社会发展在较大的生态压力下运行。同时,计算与分析了海南省和各县(市)2003年的生态足迹多样性及其发展能力。     

Beliefs underlying stress reduction and depression help-seeking among college students: An elicitation study

Objective: This study illustrates how a theory-based approach can identify college students’ beliefs about stress reduction activities and help-seeking for depression. These beliefs are the basis for intervention design. Participants: A sample of 53 undergraduate students at a public university in the Midwest participated in this research during March 2016. Methods: An open-ended belief elicitation survey was administered online. Beliefs were identified through qualitative thematic analyses. Results: Exercise was students’ most preferred stress reduction activity. Beliefs about exercise emphasized physical benefits yet also not having time for exercise. Beliefs about help-seeking for depression emphasized treatment efficacy, support from others, stigma, and time constraints. Conclusions: Whereas beliefs about positive outcomes inform educational and motivational messages, beliefs about time constraints underscore the need to also consider structural factors that can help students find time to attend to their well-being.     

论美国保护预备被监护人权益的基本原则

预备被监护人是指即将被安排监护的当事人.经过十余年改革,美国成年监护制度形成了保护预备被监护人权益的一系列基本原则.这些原则包括:"实质性损害"标准、最小限制性替代措施、"功能性行为能力"标准、正当程序原则.我国成年监护制度立法理念相对落后,借鉴美国的成功经验来重构和完善我国的成年监护制度具有重要意义.

抽象行政行为听证程序之适用

目前我国听证制度的适用范围较狭窄 ,特别是在中国加入 WTO后 ,更进一步暴露出其狭窄的听证范围与世贸规则的不协调。因此 ,有必要将听证程序的适用扩展至抽象行政行为 ,并对其适用的原则和范围予以具体规定。文章对抽象行政行为之听证程序的立法原则及其听证范围应包含的内容作出分析与论证 ,试图通过初步的探讨提出有参考价值的建议。     

集体行动中合作何以可能——从博弈论的视角看

对集体行动合作均衡的诉求构成人类永恒的政治主题之一,视角和观点的不同,带来分析结构论证和解释的差异。本文立足于博弈论的分析框架,来理解集体行动合作的难题,寻求合作博弈的均衡结果。从博弈论发展历程的几个阶段,探讨了熟人世界和陌生人世界的合作何以可能的问题,熟人社会清晰可辨的博弈历史形成的声誉机制有利于合作产生;在陌生人世界里,从行为纯正而非动机纯正作为出发点,以生存博弈为前提,道德博弈为生存博弈提供博弈框架,共同遵守内在博弈规则,内在博弈规则的演进和三方博弈的利益兼容机制,也可能达成合作。     

基于集体行动视角的劳资议价能力探讨

立足当前存在的劳资分配关系问题,从集体行动的视角,应用奥尔森等人的集体行动理论,剖析了企业利益集团形成的机理,探讨了工人集体议价制度缺失的诱因,并考察了发达国家的相关历史情况,指出利益集团的非＂共容性＂会增加社会协调成本和交易成本而使经济发展进入僵化阶段,并引致劳动报酬比重持续走低。因此有必要从建立开放的市场准入秩序、完善要素谈判制度、构建＂共容性＂利益集团等三方面着手,提高工人报酬比重,保持经济持续增长。     

法律规范的逻辑结构新论

将法律后果界定为法律规范的逻辑构成要素,不仅与法律规则和法律部门的划分理论相矛盾,而且与立法、执法和司法实践相冲突。法律后果中应包含奖励,有肯定性法律后果和否定性后果。规范适用的条件应是法律规范的逻辑构成要素。法律后果要素本身就是一个完整的法律规范,法律规范的逻辑结构只由规范适用的条件(或称为假定)和行为模式(或称为处理)构成。
