New directions for African security

African security, particularly conflict-related political violence, is a key concern in international relations. This forum seeks to advance existing research agendas by addressing four key themes: domestic politics and peacekeeping; security sector reform programs; peace enforcement; and the protection of civilians. Each of the articles in this forum makes a case for analyzing African agency when it comes to African security. As a way of introduction, this short article sets out the main debates and concludes by providing further directions for future research.     

关于军民融合大交通体系建设的几点思考

党的十九大报告把军民融合发展战略作为七大国家战略之一,明确提出要\"更加注重军民融合\"。必须将交通领域军民融合视作整个军民融合深度发展的重要突破口,建设军民融合大交通体系。提出以新形势下军事战略方针为统揽,以军民深度融合为途径,聚焦保障军队打赢,大力推进民用交通设施工具贯彻要求;依托国家路网基础,大力推进军地交通运输网络统筹纳入;强化应战应急一体,大力推进各种交通力量建设互补衔接;着眼战略投送能力,大力推进军民交通物流体系有机结合。     

THE HARD CASES

Many countries received Soviet-origin highly enriched uranium (HEU) for civilian nuclear research purposes. Because of inadequate nuclear security at a number of the research sites, U.S. policy has sought to remove or otherwise safely dispose of their HEU stocks as quickly as possible. Although the pace of HEU disposition has accelerated significantly in recent years, several sites have posed formidable technical, economic, and political challenges. This article identifies the major obstacles to HEU removal at two key installations—Kharkiv in Ukraine, and Sosny in Belarus—and recommends a strategy for overcoming these impediments. Key components for a successful disposition strategy include: treating these cases with the urgency they deserve, expanding potential compensation packages, explicitly addressing the institutional and political issues involved, engaging high-level political leaders, working with third parties, and promoting these efforts as part of a nondiscriminatory initiative to phase out HEU in the civilian nuclear sector globally.     

推进国防动员军民融合深度发展的对策思考

军民融合式发展是实现富国与强军相统一的必由之路,也是增强国防动员潜力、提高国防动员能力的有效途径。在新的形势下推进国防动员建设,必须进一步强化军民融合观念,完善军民融合机制,提高军民融合层次,增强军民融合实效,努力促进动员潜力随经济实力同步增长、动员能力随需求拓展不断提升,实现经济效益、社会效益与国防效益有机统一。     

模块化设计思想在战时民船征用改造成维修保障船中的应用

对模块化设计思想在战时民船征用改造成维修保障船中的应用作了有益探讨,对战时民船征用改造成维修保障船的必要性进行了论证。并以集装箱船为例,充分论证了在战时应用模块化设计思想把民船改造成维修保障船的优势所在,进而对改装初步方案进行了论证设计。对战时开展民船征用改造成维修保障船工作,及拓展战时装备保障思路,有一定的参考价值。     

基于知识网络的军民协同创新体系运行机理研究

军民协同创新体系由军地管理机构、高校、科研院所、企业以及中介机构等不同类型的创新主体组成,各主体通过正式和非正式关系联结,将单个创新主体有限的私有知识置于知识网络中。知识网络具有异质性、自主性、层次性和复杂性等特点,结构上分为节点要素、关系要素和环境要素。本文认为,军民协同创新体系通过网络上不同类型节点的相互作用和联系来扩散和使用知识,实现知识创新的目的,在此过程中,私有知识转移扩散、整合共有、吸收应用的交替循环运动实现知识持续积累与螺旋上升。军民协同创新体系知识网络的形成与运行,既需要发挥市场机制的基础性作用,也需要发挥军地管理机构的引导作用,以及中介机构的纽带和支撑作用,通过“有为政府”和“有效市场”的良性互动,最大限度凝聚知识创新的社会合力。
