法院调解的效力之维

对程序运作的结果加以利用,赋予民事调解符合基本法理的效力有利于实现调解制度解决纠纷的最终目的。法院调解的效力既源于实体上的私权自治,也源于程序自身的运行过程。法院调解具有有别于判决书的形成力、羁束力和执行力。无论是从必要性根据还是从正当性根据而言,法院调解都不必或不应拥有既判力。对调解的救济由于合意的存在无需保留常规通道,但对实体上的无效或可以撤销以及程序上的严重违法之情形仍需提供特别救济的紧急出口。     

反思、重构：我国法院调解制度

在新时期,我国法院调节制度存在诸如立法结构不合理等弊端。对此,一要构建调审分离的制度;二要缩小调解适用范围,维护裁判权威;三是调解程序应由当事人启动,并规定调解的期限;四是限制当事人的"反悔权"。     

互联网金融、存款竞争与银行流动性创造

作为一种新兴的金融业态,互联网金融会通过存款竞争对商业银行流动性创造产生影响.存款竞争分为存款规模竞争与付息成本竞争两种.采用2007—2018年我国106家商业银行非平衡面板数据,运用多重中介效应模型检验"互联网金融→存款规模/付息成本→银行流动性创造"的内在传导机制,研究表明:互联网金融通过挤压存款规模、抬高付息成...     

The inclusion of the other in ourselves: reception and comprehension of refugees in Portugal

Abstract

The intensification of different types of migration movements during the last decades is an expression of growing interconnections at the global level. The so called ‘refugee crisis’ is the most visible sign of this intensification. It currently challenges societies to rethink the processes of integrating those fleeing from humanitarian crises and wars. Portuguese civil society has pioneered the creation of a Refugee Support Platform, aimed to address the challenges associated with the arrival of refugee families. Within this platform, an e-learning course was created to help institutions and host families prepare for this task. In the article we first describe this course, focusing our analysis on the relevance of this initiative for institutions, families, and private citizens that wish to welcome refugees in Portugal. We then briefly reflect on the literature pertaining to intercultural dialogue and social tensions. In the final section we analyse the voices of those who attended the course. We conclude with an analysis of the contents of the course modules and the participation of the trainees as a contribution to their self-transformation.     

我国民事调解的思辨和反思

随着最高人民法院关于民事调解的相关司法解释的陆续出台,民事调解成为司法领域的热点。在民事调解热的背后,也要做一些冷思考。民事调解与构建和谐社会,依法治国,保障当事人合法权益,维护法律权威以及法院审判权之间存在一定冲突。我国民事调解面临的现实环境与以前大不相同。民事调解与现实的吻合度不高。不能过分夸大民事调解的作用,更不能将民事调解强行性推进。     

Me,an entrepreneur? Entrepreneurial identity,outgroup social identification,attitudes and intentions towards business creation / ¿Yo,un emprendedor? Identidad emprendedora,identificación social con el exogrupo,actitudes e intenciones respecto a la creación de empresas

This article aims to further investigate the role of social identity processes in the formation of entrepreneurial intentions (EI). We investigate the general hypothesis that social identification with entrepreneurs is positively associated with EI and its antecedents such as attitude, perceived social norm (subjective norm) and perceived behavioural control (self-efficacy), considered as mediators. In particular, the role of three dimensions of social identification (affects, ties and self-typicality) was empirically studied in a sample of students that answered a questionnaire. Results from regression analyses show that the affects dimension is positively linked to attitude and the perceived social norm, which mediate its association with EI. Likewise, the ties dimension appears to relate positively to EI and attitude, the latter mediating the relationship with the former. Results regarding the self-typicality dimension are mixed (significant association with perceived behavioural control, non-significant association with EI). The discussion addresses the importance of social identity processes in EI formation, study limitations, as well as possible future studies of both theoretical and practical relevance.     

Political battlefield: aggressive metaphors,gender, and power in news coverage of Canadian party leadership contests

Our study analyzed aggressive figures of speech used by the Globe and Mail to describe the personas, performances, and prospects of women and men leadership candidates for the (Progressive) Conservative Party of Canada in 1976, 1993, and 2004. We codified four distinct forms of power communicated by the aggressive metaphors—power over, power to, power with, and power as—to investigate what these battleground metaphors communicate about gender and political power. Our content analysis and discourse analysis of the phrases applied to each of the candidates revealed gendered assumptions about political leadership. All three women candidates in our study—Flora MacDonald (1976), Kim Campbell (1993), and Belinda Stronach (2004)—were discussed as formidable foes, capable of using considerable force in their efforts to win. Indeed, Campbell became Canada’s first and only woman prime minister. Yet, much of the aggressive mediation confirms the gendered mediation thesis that aggressive metaphors exclude women and reconstitute politics as masculine. Many of the combative phrases cast doubt on a woman candidate’s ability to successfully compete on the political battlefield.     

深圳医事仲裁中的调解与人民调解的比较

仲裁程序中的调解是我国《仲裁法》所确立的一项基本制度，也是我国仲裁机构的一贯做法。在深圳医患纠纷仲裁院已受理的医事纠纷案件中，大约2/3通过调解结案，所有调解结果均顺利履行。仲裁庭选择调解结案有助于化解医患矛盾，且当事人对调解协议中确定的义务自动履行的可能性明显加大、需要借助法院强制执行的可能性缩小。通过对医事仲裁中的调解与不收任何费用的人民调解进行相同与差异性的比较得出院在新近推出的两种医患纠纷处理方式中，仲裁优于人民调解。     

Family Mediation: A Guide for Family Therapists

Family therapists often see separating parents who need to agree on co‐parenting arrangements. This article provides a guide to current research and practice in family mediation. The limited available research suggests mediation is a useful approach for some separated parents and their children, but often is not successful with highly conflicted parents, parents with mental health problems, parents struggling to accept the separation from their partner, or parents with unrealistic co‐parenting expectations. We analyse ways in which mediation might be enhanced, and discuss the potential roles of family therapists to support separating families to negotiate positive co‐parenting.
