经济因素是新加坡高校汇集世界一流人才主要的原因。新加坡高校利用充足经费汇集人才:兴建完美的校园环境,创造一流的学习科研条件,向人才提供丰厚的工资福利待遇。中国高校可以从中得到一定启示:要加大教育投入、营造良好环境及提高人才工资福利待遇。     

Bidding asymmetries in multi-unit auctions: Implications of bid function equilibria in the British spot market for electricity

This paper introduces and tests Bid Function Equilibria (BFE) in the British spot market for electricity. BFE extend von der Fehr and Harbord's (1993) multi-unit auction model of wholesale electricity markets by allowing firms to have heterogeneous costs for different generating units. Pure-strategy equilibria in BFE predict asymmetric bidding by producers: a single firm (the “price-setter") bids strategically while other firms (“non-price-setters") bid their costs. We test for asymmetries in firms' bid functions in the British spot market between 1993 and 1995 and find strong empirical support for the theory. We conclude that BFE have important implications for the design and governance of electricity markets.     

面向大学的社会捐赠行为的经济学分析

面向大学的社会捐赠本质上是一种经济行为。捐赠者的效用体现为明显的非物质形态,遵循效用最大化原理。捐赠者的捐赠行为是国民收入再分配的有效形式、改善社会经济福利水平的有效措施和形成社会资本的重要途径。我国税收制度对捐赠者行为有重要影响:所得税抵扣必然导致社会捐赠量的增长,其增长幅度在高税率条件下比在低税率条件下要大;其影响的敏感性对低收入捐赠者比对高收入捐赠者要强。     

提升政府诚信是转变政府职能的关键

在当前市场经济的发展和政府职能转型过程中,政府诚信显得更为重要。政府诚信是影响信用经济能否健康发展的重要因素。因此,我们要大力加强诚信道德教育和有关法制建设,转变政府职能,打造诚信社会。

基于污染损失率的连云港水环境污染功能价值损失研究

水体污染是当前环境污染一个重要方面,有效评价水污染的价值损失是水环境规划、制定水环境对策与政策的基础。文章基于污染损失率法估算连云港水环境的功能价值损失,得出1996—2000年连云港的水环境污染功能价值损失年均高达11.8亿元,占GDP的比重年均为4.55%。表明连云港水环境污染损失较大,其经济发展在一定程度上是以水环境污染为代价的;目前以GDP为主要衡量指标的国民经济核算体系可能过高地估计了连云港的经济增长水平。     

论市场化进程中政府的作用

“市场失灵”致使政府具有弥补“市场缺陷”的必要性,适应市场化进程的政府职能体系的目标表现为秩序、活力、和谐。政府职能的规划包括即期目标、中期目标、长期目标。政府职能规划的即期目标是重构政府,其核心是政府职能的规范化,标准和目标是“秩序”,包括政治秩序、经济秩序、社会秩序;中期目标是引入第三种力量,其核心是政府职能的科学化,标准和目标是“活力”,包括政治活力、经济活力、社会活力;远期目标是建立“市场 政府 第三种力量”的运转机制,其核心是政府职能的民主化,标准和目标是“和谐”,包括政治和谐、经济和谐、社会和谐。

The Role of Water in Manufacturing

Water's role in manufacturing technologies has received limited attention. A KLEM model of the sector's technology is extended to include two facets of water use: intake and recirculation. Three annual cross-sectional surveys on plant-level water use are pooled and combined with census data to estimate this extended model for the Canadian manufacturing sector over the period 1981–1991. While Canada's water allocation regulations influence private water withdrawals, statistical tests support representing water intake as a variable input. Water intake is found to be a substitute for water recirculation, energy, labour and capital. The relationship between water intake and recirculation is stronger when water intake is process-related rather than related to cooling and steam production. Technological change has been biased in the direction of increased water intake and decreased water recirculation.     

On the existence of a regulated production function

This paper examines the generalization of the regulated production function. It characterizes the set of admissible regulatory constraints that are compatible with the existence of a regulated production function in a sufficiently weak framework to encompass the usual rate-of-return constraints à la Averch and Johnson and value constraints.
