广西与越南边境贸易发展现状、存在问题及对策建议

与越南的边境贸易在广西的对外贸易中占有重要地位。近年来,双方经贸合作领域不断扩大,层次不断加深,贸易规模逐年上升,贸易结构逐步优化,贸易主体趋向多元化。但仍面临广西边境地区经济发展较落后,边境贸易结构不尽合理,边贸政策不够规范,体制机制不健全,优惠政策落实不到位等问题。“一带一路”规划的实施和中国—东盟自由贸易区（ CAFTA）的建成为广西与越南的边境贸易发展提供了新环境和新契机。广西要加快与越南的边境贸易的发展,应鼓励发展加工贸易,打造特色产业,扩大边境贸易进出口规模,放宽进口限制,优化调整边境贸易进出口商品结构,落实边境贸易优惠政策。     

黑河口岸对俄贸易发展中存在的问题及对策建议

从1987年黑河口岸打开了终止20年的对苏边境贸易大门开始,其对俄贸易规模持续扩大,进出口商品结构日趋合理,但总体对俄贸易规模仍较小,还存在地区产业结构不合理,对俄贸易自主性有限且渗透程度低,基础设施建设薄弱,对俄经贸合作软环境较差等问题。提出加快黑河产业结构优化升级,培养优势特色产业,完善口岸通道布局与功能,优化对俄经贸软环境等推动黑河口岸对俄贸易的对策建议。

加拿大旅游服务贸易现状及中加旅游贸易发展

加拿大是世界主要旅游服务贸易国之一,但长期以来其旅游服务贸易对减少其服务贸易逆差的贡献不大.通过历史数据归纳分析了加拿大旅游服务贸易的特征及存在的问题,并分析指出形成这些问题的原因;在研究中国出境旅游的发展变化中探讨了中加旅游服务贸易合作发展的可能性;指出如果中加两国能够签订ADS协议,则将为减少加拿大旅游服务贸易和服务贸易逆差作出较大贡献.     

我国对外贸易扩张导致贫困化增长的倾向性分析

在经济全球化和国际贸易迅速发展的背景下,发展中国家对外贸易规避贫困化增长已经成为一个非常重要的课题。本文通过分析1995-2004年我国的进出口贸易数据,根据贫困化增长相关理论,用实证的方法验证了我国虽没有出现贫困化增长,但符合贫困化增长的前提条件,也出现了部分贸易条件恶化的现象,有陷入贫困化增长的可能性,最后提出了我国对外贸易如何规避贫困化增长的战略选择。     

Comparing Big Givers and Small Givers: Financial Correlates of Corporate Philanthropy

In a departure from the traditional studies of corporate philanthropy that focus on board composition, advertising, and social networks, the authors investigate the financial correlates of corporate philanthropy. The research design controls for firm size and industry while observing firms from a variety of industries. The sample contains matched pairs of generous and less generous corporate givers. The authors find, as hypothesized, a positive relationship between a firm's cash resources available and cash donations, but no significant relationship between corporate philanthropy and firm financial performance, regardless of whether corporate philanthropy is measured as cash payouts or the aggregate contributions that charities actually receive, and regardless of whether financial performance is gauged using accounting measures or market measures. Whereas the link between available resources and corporate philanthropy is well accepted in the literature on corporate social responsibility, it has been rarely tested and never so definitively found as in this research.     

中美产业内贸易研究

本文对中美工业制成品产业内贸易的发展及特征进行了实证研究,发现中美双边贸易中工业制成品产业内贸易所占比重有所提高,其中,机械和运输设备产业内贸易所占比重最高;垂直产业内贸易是中美产业内贸易的主要形式;市场容量扩大、跨国公司价值链管理的需要以及一体化生产体系的构筑均有利于促进双边产业内贸易的发展,中国关税税率的大幅削减对产业内贸易发展的促进作用并不明显,规模经济和贸易障碍对其则尚存消极影响。

析我国外汇占款对冲策略

根据我国的经济运行情况,分析固定汇率、资本流动与货币政策自主的“三元困境”在我国的具体表现。指出在经常项目和资本项目持续顺差的情况下,货币政策与外汇储备增长的矛盾。说明为控制流通中的货币而被动进行的单向对冲操作的成本昂贵,并且是以牺牲货币政策自主为代价的,还易积蕴金融风险,酿致恶性后果。证实了外汇占款对冲策略的不可持久性,为此必须改革现行的固定汇率制度,并放松资本管制。     

An Exploration of Opportunities for the Growth of the Fair Trade Market: Three Cases of Craft Organisations

Businesses that maintain ethical standards have an advantage in the marketplace based on the increasing interest of consumers in products that have a social and ethical component. Fair trade organisations that adopt environmental, social and ethical principles in trading are in a good position to make the most of this growing interest in the market. However, it is unclear whether fair trade organisations are taking full advantage of emerging market opportunities for ethically traded products. This research explores this issue by describing the business strategies of three fair trade organisations that import and sell craft goods into Western countries and evaluates them in the context of this growing market. The research findings indicate that in order to remain in business, fair trade craft organisations have had to adopt better business practices in recent years, improving quality, customer service and product offerings to customers. However, growth appears to be limited, as distribution remains focused on a small, niche market. This paper explores the distribution strategies of two fair trade commodity organisations that are successfully reaching a wider customer base, demonstrating that fair trade products have a unique selling advantage in the mainstream marketplace. In conclusion, fair trade craft organisations are not exploiting this market opportunity to the degree they should and will need to explore wider distribution and alternative business strategies to expand their market share.Debora Randall completed her Masters of Management at Massey University, in Auckland, New Zealand.
