Perceptions of Randomized Security Schedules

Security of infrastructure is a major concern. Traditional security schedules are unable to provide omnipresent coverage; consequently, adversaries can exploit predictable vulnerabilities to their advantage. Randomized security schedules, which randomly deploy security measures, overcome these limitations, but public perceptions of such schedules have not been examined. In this experiment, participants were asked to make a choice between attending a venue that employed a traditional (i.e., search everyone) or a random (i.e., a probability of being searched) security schedule. The absolute probability of detecting contraband was manipulated (i.e., 1/10, 1/4, 1/2) but equivalent between the two schedule types. In general, participants were indifferent to either security schedule, regardless of the probability of detection. The randomized schedule was deemed more convenient, but the traditional schedule was considered fairer and safer. There were no differences between traditional and random schedule in terms of perceived effectiveness or deterrence. Policy implications for the implementation and utilization of randomized schedules are discussed.     

在文本与实践之间——法律移植之困境再论

当前我国法制建设在制度移植与重生方面面临着一种困境，即法制建设究竟是应该整理传统以利用本土资源并进而实现传统的创造性转化，还是应该以西方制度演化史所积淀的现代法制模式为榜样进行整体或局部的法律移植，学界对此亦存在相当的论争。然而值得怀疑的是，这些不同角度的理论进路究竟在多大程度上能给当前的困境提供一种出路，甚而有学者以为当前的制度变革本就无解。

罪行法定主义史论

本文从法律史的角度试论传统中国的＂罪刑法定＂,拟从固有的典章律令中,寻出比较具体客观的认识,证明传统旧制中罪刑法定主义是存在的,但由于传统中国法律的根本精神是人治,这决定了罪刑法定作为一项刑法原则就制度层面而言,在封建立法、司法的实务运作中并未落实,只在个别朝代律文中得到一定程度的体现。从罪刑法定主义到罪刑法定原则,其间的递颤是有因果脉络可寻的：惟有在法治理念、罪行法定理念深入人心的基础上,罪刑法定原则才能落到实处。     

当代我国出版自由研究

当代我国的＂出版自由＂,应着眼于法律如何保障出版自由和如何规制出版自由。即现阶段我国＂出版自由＂的内涵是：出版自由是公民在宪法、法律规定的范围内,将作品编辑、加工并复制后向公众传播,以出版的形式发表意见来参与管理国家、公共等事务的权利。研究＂出版自由＂时应正确区分出版自由和政治自由、表达自由、新闻自由、议论自由的区别与联系。我国现行的法律法规有明确的《中华人民共和国著作权法》,却没有＂出版自由法＂,其实＂出版自由权＂与＂著作权＂有着至关重要的关系,出版自由权是著作权的前提和保证,而著作权则是出版自由权得以落实和具体化的司法手段。

Migration decision-making and migration industry in the Indonesia–Malaysia corridor

ABSTRACT

This paper explores the involvement of migration industry (MI) in the migration system of Indonesia and Malaysia. The two countries share an extensive border and have much in common in culture and history but they are very different in geographical size, population and economic development, the latter being a main cause for labour migration from Indonesia to Malaysia. The changing context of government policies generates new niches for migration services taken up by formal and informal intermediaries, thereby confronting migrants with a varied migration-decision field and thresholds during their migration process. Much of the migration is legal, but a large part of it also takes place outside the control of the national governments. While taking mental processes in migration decision-making as starting point, we analyse how the MI, by way of fostering, facilitating and controlling geographic mobility and localised employment, connects to the production and negotiating of three migration decision thresholds faced by migrants.

宗教民族主义探析

宗教民族主义已成为世界政治舞台上的重要现象.本文首先介绍迄今学界主要研究成果,然后探析"宗教"和"民族主义"如何交融连接形成"宗教民族主义",并简述了宗教民族主义与宗教运动和世俗民族主义运动的不同.本文认为,作为一种社会政治现象,宗教民族主义不可还原为纯粹的宗教思想和运动或世俗民族主义;宗教民族主义的成因不是先验的或纯精神性的,而是情境性的;不存在普世单一、固定不变的宗教民族主义.     

十六国时期少数民族政权法制的历史影响

十六国时期少数民族所建政权的法律制度多循魏晋,但当时一些有为君主为了适应特殊情势的需要,在取舍中原汉制的基础上,又制定了一些新的法律制度,在行政、刑事、民事、经济、婚姻、司法等制度方面均有所建树,从而使十六国时期的法制在中华法制文明发展史上留下了自己的身影。
