审计监督具有鲜明的政治意义，审计监督本身及其所反映出的种种问题的实质就是“围绕公共权力而展开的活动”，应结合政治学来探索审计监督的本质和发展规律，并推进审计工作进一步发展。     

Jokowi's First Year: A Weak President Caught between Reform and Oligarchic Politics

When President Joko Widodo (Jokowi) took office in October 2014, he promised to usher in a new style of politics, generating optimism among many Indonesians that his government would enthusiastically promote reform. Yet Jokowi has since placed greater value on realpolitik than on reform, as evidenced by his choice of cabinet members, his response to the controversy surrounding senior police officer Budi Gunawan, and his handling of attempts by the police and others to weaken Indonesia's respected Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK). This article shows that Jokowi failed to deliver on his promises of reform largely owing to a combination of personal and external factors. He failed to show leadership on anticorruption and human-rights issues, for example—in part because he prefers economic development over democratic reform, but also because he is not immune to the oligarchic politics that dominate Indonesia's political life and promote the interests of Indonesia's elite.     

Consumers and deregulation of the electricity market in Germany

Against the backcloth of EU regulation, this note looks at the “politics of necessity” regarding electricity provision in Germany. Electricity as a case is chosen because its provision has been undergoing a profound process of liberalisation and deregulation, and there is a considerable amount of experience with the chances and pitfalls of liberalisation in this sector. Secondly, electricity is a network industry and a natural monopoly subject to systematic market failure, which calls for regulation. The paper starts out with a closer look at the consumer as an actor in the regulation process, proposing a three-role model of the consumer as a market player, as a citizen, and as a micro-producer in households and networks. In these roles, consumers take on different social and political identities; they are affected differently by (de)regulation of essential services and have different options for reacting to quality and price issues. It then describes the legal state and the development of deregulation in the electricity sector in Germany. Selected empirical data are presented, and consumer policy implications are drawn.     

Feminism and the Physical Cultural Studies Assemblage: Revisiting Debates and Imagining New Directions

Abstract

The relationship between feminism and PCS is complex and an exemplar of the politics of knowledge production. We begin this paper by detailing the evolving relationship between feminism and PCS, and identify two key ways that feminist sport scholars have responded to PCS. Whereas one group has rejected PCS outright, another is reappropriating PCS for their own purposes. Aligning with the latter, in the remainder of the paper we offer one of many possible imaginings of a feminist interpretation of the PCS assemblage. More specifically, we briefly outline how a feminist engagement with some of the key tenets of PCS facilitated new understandings of New Zealand women’s embodied experiences of netball, includingMāori women.In so doing, we reveal what a FPCS approach might look like in practice and highlight ways that feminist scholars have, and can continue to, contribute to the PCS agenda through embodied, theoretical, reflexive, political, contextual and culturally-specific research.

认清形势，突出重点，切实加强四川高校领导班子思想政治建设

在实施科教兴国和人才强国战略的历史背号下，在全国高等教育进行管理体制和结构布局战略性大调整的重要时期，我省高等教育实现了连续多年的超常规、跨越式发展。但与此同时，我省高校领导班子和领导干部的整体理论素质，尤其是思想政治素质有待进一步提高；高校领导班子驾驭全局。科学决策和解决重大问题的能力尚需进一步培养；高校领导班子民主集中制和党委领导下的校长负责制需进一步完善；高校领导班子的党风廉政建设需进一步加强。对此。我们认为，必须深刻认识高等教育的发展趋势和面临的巨大挑战，以提高领导现代大学的能力为重点，切实加强我省高校领导班子思想政治建设。进一步推动我省高等教育事业全面、协调、可持续地向前发展。     

美墨卡车跨境运输争端案及其启示

卡车跨境运输争端是美国与墨西哥在《北美自由贸易协定》下发生的涉及卡车跨境运输的服务贸易争端。该争端前后历时16年之久,全面展现了美国国内利益集团在对外贸易政策制定方面的影响力,更凸显了美国“实用主义”的国际法观及其对外贸易政策制定的国内政治博弈特点。而该争端的解决为世界各国如何在多边贸易体制中处理与贸易相关的社会问题提供了有益的借鉴。

欠发达农村生态治理创新--以甘肃为例

综合人口结构、民族分布、地理环境来看,甘肃的生态屏障战略地位凸显.老庄、孔孟等先贤奠定了生态治理的思想基础,之后与时俱进地变迁,政府的践行力度也持续强化,然而现实农村生态情况不容乐观,甘肃的形势也十分严峻.从公共治理理论出发,主要有三个方面的深层动因：企业逐利罔顾其他,政府绩效考核缺陷,农户人为加剧破坏.新农村生态治理亟待创新：以地方政府为主导力量、以乡镇企业为重点客体、以社会组织为桥梁纽带、以个体农户为核心依靠,综合多种手段统筹保护、恢复、建设,实现生态、经济、社会三维效益的整体优化.     

The diffusion of foreign divestment from Burma

We examine variation in the rate of divestment by multinational firms from Burma. We argue that in addition to a set of firm‐level characteristics known to impact divestment decisions, firms are also influenced by characteristics of their home country and the divestment patterns of others. Using data on firms operating in Burma during 1996–2002, we model these multiple influences on firms to divest. Our results show that beyond firm‐level concerns, firms divest in response to the political characteristics of their home country, including protest, the level of political freedom, and transparency of institutions. We also find that the centrality of their home country in the network of intergovernmental organizations impacts divestment patterns in interesting ways. Copyright © 2013 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
