Abstract:
After an analysis of the classical community theory and modernity ad vanced by Ferdinand Tonnies, the article concludes that while the concept of co mmunity in the present context is intimately related with the community referred to by Ferdinand Tonnies?, they are not to be equated with each other as there are substantial differences between them, and it is of no avail to postulate the functions of the traditional community are the very objective for the construc tion of the modern community.

It con cludes that not only States, but also private entities are forbidden to appropri ate the Moon and other celestial bodies. Therefore, nobody is allowed to have re al property right to the Moon and to sell lunar lands. States must fulfill their obligations, in accordance with Article 6 of the Outer Space Treaty, to prohibi t real property rights in outer space.

Abstract:
There exists a striking difference between Bakhtin-s early and late v iews on "author". In terms of the position of "author", Bakhtin switches fro m an authorative perspective to an empathetic one. In terms of the significanc e of "author", Bakhtin shifts his conception of "author" from creating tensi on by opposing his values to literature formalism to creating pure formalism. I n this process of change, "author" frees himself from an authority omniscient in everything, and simultaneously brings himself to the verge of death which ari ses from Bakhtin-s reconciliation of two extreme views of subject.
