利用RDU评价车牌拍卖和年费方式的支付意愿

城市私车牌照拍卖被认为是控制私车拥有量的有效手段,对此将购车人分为三类,采用依序效用函数和概率权重函数分别讨论了观望效用为常数和变量时本地和外地车牌之间的依赖关系以及买家的支付意愿,从而不仅显示了观望效用对支付意愿的影响,而且也证明了概率权重函数的弹性系数对判断车牌选择倾向、刻画支付意愿大小和区分买家类型都具有重要作用。此外还就新提出的车牌限制措施-年费制度潜在的实施效果进行了分析,说明该制度将导致外地车牌对使用成本的变动更加敏感,而且长期来说也难以为继。     

论创意设计中的逻辑思维与形象思维

我们不能孤立地看待艺术设计中的形象思维和逻辑思维,二者本质不同却又相互统一。逻辑思维是运用抽象的概念进行判断和推理;形象思维则是运用形象的意象展开联想和想象。逻辑思维的推进往往伴随着形象思维的发生,以逻辑思维为主的理性思考则指导着形象思维的具体运用。因而在创意设计过程中,二者总是相辅相成,相互促进,是辩证的统一体。     

FRAND承诺域外 法律实践及其对我国的启示

FRAND承诺是一种善意协商义务,标准必要专利权人未履行该义务则需承担缔约过失责任;对标准必要专利权人寻求禁令救济的请求宜采取限制适用态度,不满足特定条件的禁令救济请求,应当认定为必要专利滥用行为;在考虑Georgia-Pacific因素的基础上,可采用事前技术竞争模式合理确定标准必要专利实施许可费用。欧美相关法律实践表明,运用多个部门法保障FRAND承诺实施是标准必要专利制度正常运行的基础。

行政许可的学理分析

行政许可是平衡公益和私益的一种管理社会经济、政治、文化等事务的手段。就行为的性质而言,行政许可是具有核准性质及特征的行政行为;从制度的逻辑起点分析,行政许可以公益与私益的平衡为理论基础;行政许可规范化的目的在于公共权力与公民权利关系的理性化,因此,合理配置权力与权利为行政许可立法的重心。     

Lightning Rods,Earthquakes, and Regional Identities: Towards a Multi‐Scale Framework of Assessing Fracking Risk Perception

Hydraulic fracturing has provided a persistent, polarizing, and highly politicized source of controversy internationally and in numerous national contexts for just under a decade. This research uses hydraulic fracturing (i.e., fracking) operations in New Zealand as a vignette through which to understand the underlying causes of controversy and the appropriateness of attempts to address them. A multi‐method approach using interviews (n = 25), diagrammatic analysis, and newsprint media was applied to evidence two major findings. First, previous attempts to explain fracking controversy based on social constructivist theory lack a multi‐scalar approach to the assessment of factors that influence risk perceptions. It is found that risk perception surrounding fracking in New Zealand reflects intra‐scalar interactions between factors originating at the international, national, regional, and local scale. Second, there is a concerning absence of critique pertaining to the concept of “social license to operate” (SLO), which has been advocated both internationally and nationally as an appropriate form of stakeholder engagement. This article contributes to the SLO outcomes literature by establishing a need to consider multi‐scalar influences on risk perception when explaining diverse SLO outcomes in communities where fracking operations are prospective or already taking place.     

Cursed creatives: alienation,sublimation, and the plight of contemporary creative work

ABSTRACT

This paper connects the critical discourse on the ‘creative class’ with a longstanding lineage of thought on creativity in psychoanalysis, demonstrating their combined value in understanding worker subjectivity and exposing the perils of contemporary creative work. Drawing upon object relations theorizing in particular, the argument is made that the ‘objects’ of contemporary creative work coupled with its surrounding ‘potential space’ prove severely impoverished, giving rise to a newfound experience of alienation. Accounts of creative workers are presented to further elucidate alienation’s unconscious correlates, as well as to suggest ways of mitigating creativity’s compromised expression through the process of ‘sublimation’ – a concept central to the psychoanalytic theorizing on creativity, yet wholly absent from the contemporary discourse. Implications for the critical study of the ‘creative class’ are discussed.     

Using creative methods to research across difference. An introduction to the special issue

ABSTRACT

This special issue explores some of the methodological challenges that are brought into play when scholars deploy creative methods to research across difference. This introductory article defines what we mean by ‘creative methods’ and discusses some of the strengths and weaknesses of using this approach within social science research. It then outlines how creative methods can be used to research across difference, specifically, and introduces the seven articles that make up the special issue.
