A working paper from April 1985: Which demand elasticities do we know and which do we need to know for policy analysis?

This paper presents some results on the theory and estimation of intertemporal allocation mechanisms. The results rely heavily on the distinction between anticipated changes and unanticipated changes.     

现阶段我国经济增长的源泉分析

从总体上讲，我国近些年来的经济增长应是制度转轨、对外开放与二元经济转型等因素相互作用与协同发展的结果；在我国的经济增长过程中，制度一经济增长论与二元经济发展论可以同时成立；不过。从各因素对经济增长的总量贡献上看，二元经济转型的贡献要远大于其他因素。这说明了我国的经济增长不仅享受了渐进式的制度变迁的好处，而且也享受到了转轨的“后发优势”。当然。从各种因素对经济增长作用的发展趋势与作用的空间性上看，制约我国未来经济增长的核心经济因素将会从以往的经济制度瓶颈转向产业结构升级与技术进步上。     

State tourism in China and USA

Schuchat, Molly G., “State Tourism in China and USA,” Annals of Tourism Research, October/December 1979, VI(4):425–434. This paper discusses the experiences available to most visitors to the Peoples Republic of China and to those visitors to the United States of America who are cultural exchange grantees. In the United States the Department of State contracts out the programming and direction of its officially invited guests to non-profit agencies that work in cooperation with a nationwide network of local volunteers. Almost all visitors to China, no matter who paid for their trip, were treated as official guests of the country, until 1978. It is only in the last year that they have been considered tourists at all. The range of contacts and experiences offered in both countries have a great deal of similarity. One focus of the paper is on what these guests (or any others not so similarly shepherded) are able to learn of countries not their own through exposure to public life. The material was gathered on visits to China in January, 1977 and September, 1978, and in interviews with programming and interpreting staffs, volunteers and grantees in Washington, D.C.     

Impacts of price variations on the balance of world trade

A standard mathematical model of a trade market is considered, and the concept of an acceptable state of the market is introduced, which takes into account the requirements of all the partners. To evaluate the ‘distance’ between the acceptable and current states of the market, a special mathematical approach is developed. This approach has been found useful for correcting the price vector to bring the states closer together.     

土地利用覆被/变化（LUCC）研究进展

土地利用/覆被变化（LUCC）研究一直是全球变化研究的热点。从LUCC相关概念入手,对LUCC的国内外研究进展进行总结归纳,得到结论：国外LUCC领域的研究启动早、覆盖面广且研究较为深入,中国LUCC研究主要集中在时空变化、驱动机制、生态环境效应及模型模拟研究四个方面,加强区域性研究、提高模型的实用性仍是中国今后LUCC领域研究的重点。     

突发事件情境下组织冗余资源的作用分析

资源在企业的生存、发展、绩效等方面扮演着重要的角色.作为企业一种重要的资源存在形式,组织冗余资源在企业中所起的作用不容忽视.然而,不同学者对冗余资源的作用有不同的理解,既有积极的观点也有消极的观点,这种差异主要是受到研究情境和冗余资源自身类型的影响.冗余资源最主要的作用就是能够缓冲环境变化给企业带来的冲击,保护企业的技术核心,给管理者提供较大的管理弹性,促进企业创新行为和组织变革的发生,帮助企业适应环境.     

农民参与土地制度变迁的模式与路径

采用制度经济学和公共选择理论的方法分析中国土地制度变迁中的农民行为后发现,农民对土地制度变迁有自己的应对办法。农民可以通过直接参与和间接参与两种模式影响土地制度的变迁。直接参与的具体路径包括:革命、契约和政治参与;间接参与的具体路径包括:通过选择制度供给者间接参与和通过反馈策略间接参与。中国的事例证明这些参与行为是存在或可能的。这就启示我们,在我国当前的土地制度创新中要考虑到农民的这些参与行为,以促使创新有效地进行。     

制度变迁与中国保险业增长

制度变革是推动中国保险业高速发展的最直接原因.保障制度、企业制度、收入分配制度等的变革所释放出的保险需求为保险企业的产生和发展提供了市场前提和空间,保险主体的多元化、企业行为的市场化增加了保险供给能力,两方面的共同作用形成了我国保险业的持续快速增长.而保险监管的市场化、法制化则为保险企业提供了宽松的竞争环境,保证了保险业增长的稳定性和持续性.     

反经济周期相对价格变动与现金持有——基于中国制造业全行业和细分行业的实证数据

采用中国 A 股制造业上市公司1998~2011年数据,探讨制造业全行业及其细分行业下反经济周期相对价格变动现象的存在;并引入现金持有这一财务资源,比较在不同现金持有水平下企业产品市场反经济周期相对价格变动的差异。研究发现反经济周期相对价格变动现象在中国制造业中存在,而现金持有较少的企业其反经济周期相对价格变动现象更为明显。同时在不同制造业细分行业中,反经济周期相对价格变动程度有所差异,现金持有的影响也发生变化。     

Price Rigidity in Turkey: Evidence from Micro Data

In this study we investigate the duration of consumer price spells and price change patterns for Turkey by employing a comprehensive micro price data covering around 6,000 items over four years. In detail, we analyze how long typical price spell lasts and we investigate the size, frequency, distribution and synchronization of price changes. Compared to advanced economies, a higher frequency of price changes is estimated. Findings suggest substantial heterogeneity among sub-groups in terms of frequency and synchronization indicators. The mixed evidence of both state and time-dependent pricing is also relevant for Turkey, an emerging market economy.
