When do Non‐Family CEOs Outperform in Family Firms? Agency and Behavioural Agency Perspectives

Family firms represent a globally dominant form of organization, yet they confront a steep challenge of finding and managing competent leaders. Sometimes, these leaders cannot be found within the owning family. To date we know little about the governance contexts under which non‐family leaders thrive or founder. Guided by concepts from agency theory and behavioural agency theory, we examine the conditions of ownership and leadership that promote superior performance among non‐family CEOs of family firms. Our analysis of 893 Italian family firms demonstrates that these leaders outperform when they are monitored by multiple major family owners as opposed to a single owner; they also outperform when they are not required to share power with co‐CEOs who are family members, and who may be motivated by parochial family socioemotional priorities.     

Towards a spirituality-based platform in tourism higher education

This conceptual paper contributes to tourism knowledge by proposing a spirituality-based platform in tourism higher education. Through this platform, the authors show how tourism education that supports discussion on spiritual development can help to create global citizens who are able to understand their potential as social, cultural and environmental stewards. This paper reviews recent developments shaping tourism education and examines the contemporary tourism educational landscape that supports a spirituality-based educational approach. The 7th platform of tourism studies is offered through a spirituality-based approach to knowledge and examples are given of how we can develop such a platform in tourism higher education.

生态补偿视角下的耕地保护

耕地具有经济价值、社会价值和生态价值。但是目前我国耕地保护工作比较注重对耕地经济价值和社会价值的保护,而忽视耕地生态价值的保护,这显然是不够的,也不利于耕地保护工作的开展。随着人们环保意识逐步提高,强调耕地生态价值的保护,建立耕地资源保护生态补偿机制显得十分必要。     

我国跨境短期资本流动的成因结构分析：2005～2008——一个基于VAR模型的实证研究

本文利用2005年7月以来的月度统计数据,通过基于VAR模型的脉冲响应分析和方差分解分析,从实证意义上验证了国内汇率、利率、房地产市场和股票市场对跨境短期资本流动的现实影响作用,且诸变量中,以汇率和地产价格的影响力为相对最强。据此本文认为,为了有效应对短期资本跨境流动的问题,今后一个阶段,应合理引导汇率预期并努力维持房地产价格的相对稳定。
