完善我国合同法应借鉴《国际商事合同通则》

1999年10月1日后正式实施的《中华人民共和国合同法》已经借鉴了当今发达国家先进的合同法立法经验和国际惯例,但与其它国家和有关国际公约的立法相比较,若干条文和规定仍然是粗线条的。文章以《国际商事合同通则》为例与我国合同法对比,探讨了我国合同立法在合同的成立、合同效力问题、精神损害赔偿、“意外条款”的效力、合同的解释等方面的一些缺陷,以期对我国合同法的完善有所借鉴。

稻作起源的考古学探索

根据农业起源理论与考古学实例分析,长江下游的水稻栽培发生在野生资源非常丰富的自然环境里,其驯化机制并非饥馑和用于果腹,很可能是为了增加美食的酿酒。稻作农业在良渚阶段成为主要经济形态与复杂社会强化剩余产品生产密切相关,良渚酋邦解体后的马桥文化又退回到了狩猎采集经济。农业经济最终成为不可逆转的发展趋势,是野生资源持续减少、人口增长和社会复杂化等因素共同作用的结果。文章呼吁,中国的农业起源研究要摆脱一味寻找最早栽培谷粒来确定农业起源时间和地点的模式,从人地关系的互动来了解农业起源的潜因和具体进程。     

"有点幻灭"但"并没动摇"--重新解读1927年顷茅盾的思想与创作

对1927年顷茅盾的思想与创作的历史评价,历来存在两点分歧:一是怎么理解茅盾所说的我“有点幻灭”,但“并没动摇”;二是对他失去党的组织关系的原因和应作何评价。两者都应站在历史唯物主义立场上,放到当时中国革命现实、国际共运与中共党史史实大背景上作宏观考察。一是茅盾“幻灭”的,是他参与建党时就形成的“革命速胜论”,即认为中国革命是一步到位的“无产阶级革命”,但是他的共产主义信仰从未动摇过。二是茅盾失去党的组织关系的主要原因,在客观方面不在主观方面,因为他公开反对一度控制中共中央的“左”倾盲动主义路线,在具此“左”倾思想的党内负责同志看来,不能认为是“表现得好”而予以恢复党的组织关系。这一切充分表现出茅盾坚定的共产主义信念,勇于自我批评,勇于反对错误路线的难能可贵的政治品格与高尚人格。     

The Roles Played by the Staff and Workers’ Representative Congress in the Formation of Work Regulations

Article 4 of the Labor Contract Law lays down the right of the Staff and Workers’ Representative Congress (SWRC) to deliberate on the formulation of (intra-enterprise) work regulations, but this has become a “soft” law in judicial practice. The judicial criteria for judging the validity of work regulations are in essence determined by the judge’s judgment on their reasonableness. As an important embodiment of Chinese politics, economics and culture, the transformation of the SWRC that accompanied the market economy has not negated its value as an indigenous traditional resource. The SWRC does not just enjoy deliberative rights in the formation of regulations, as clearly specified in constitutional law, but also has rights under the law in local legislation and practice. Hence the system of work regulations is neither a unilateral decision on the part of management nor a contract, but rather an autonomous norm developed through the SWRC mechanism. Given the mandatory nature of Article 4 of the Labor Contract Law, regulations will only be valid after they have gone through a democratic process. The further development of the theory of normative system formation should endow the SWRC with greater rights and integrate it smoothly with the collective contract system to standardize collective labor relations.     

Countering Overseas Power in Global Value Chains: Information Asymmetries and Subcontracting in the Plastics Industry

Resource Dependency Theory (RDT) and Global Value Chain (GVC) analysis have been deployed in the strategic and international management literatures to address questions of power in dyadic relationships and global production networks, respectively. This paper integrates the two theoretical approaches in order to expand RDT, using insights from Hirschman's exit/voice model to show the options available to some firms but not others. Using the relationship between buyers and contract manufacturers from GVC analysis, we find a correlation between firm size and choice of strategic action in response to contract manufacturers' dependence on buyers. Large firms follow an acquiescence strategy while small manufacturers follow an avoidance strategy, able to use both exit and voice strategies. Enabled by scale or control over information, both of these approaches successfully reduce uncertainty and provide a source of sustained competitive advantage. Using a study of the production chain in consumer plastics manufacturing in China, we show how dependent firms respond to GVC induced pressure. We find that based on the size of the contract manufacturer, the range of strategic responses to power is constrained by the nature of the dependency in global value chains. This opens important insights into the role that structural characteristics of organizations (like size) play in determining strategic freedom.     

小说的影像阐释及其意义解读

小说的影像阐释是当代影视剧生产的重要源泉,在视觉文化主导的今天,小说的影像阐释不仅使小说进入文字阅读和视听感知结合的“共读”时代,而且为影像作品提供了丰富的内容和形式。同时,小说的影像阐释已经对当代作家的小说书写、小说生成方式及小说传播形态产生了意义深远的影响。
