川西北高原藏区农村贫困化分异机制探测

[目的]客观揭示农村贫困化地域分异机制,为科学推进川西北高原藏区精准扶贫创新途径、综合战略和认真贯彻落实中央治藏方略提供参考依据。[方法]应用地理探测器模型、GIS空间分析与地统计方法等方法,探测川西北高原藏区贫困村单位面积GDP分异的主导因素,揭示农村贫困化分异机制,提出不同贫困化地域类型的扶贫政策措施。[结果]影响川西北高原藏区农村贫困化分异的主导因素包括到主要交通道路距离、归一化植被指数(NDVI)、土地利用、年均温度和海拔高程等,各因素对贫困村经济发展分异的解释力分别为80. 76%、12. 82%、8. 82%、5. 45%和3. 96%;贫困村经济发展贫困化的分异机制存在明显差异,可归纳为交通区位约束型、自然环境约束型和经济区位约束型等三大类型;农村贫困化驱动机制下的贫困村精准扶贫政策措施亟需因地制宜、科学推进、讲求实效,有序推进精准扶贫战略。[结论]精准扶贫应分类指导、重点突破,尤其加强贫困村交通、水利、公共基础设施建设和特色农牧业产业培植,注重多种扶贫模式的综合集成。     

Network neutrality and the nature of competition between network operators

The neutral architecture of the Internet is being challenged by various parties, such as network operators providing the connections to end-users, who are interested in gaining control of the information exchanged over the Internet. What are the effects on competition and welfare of such practices? Currently, there exists very little economic theory on network neutrality. This paper provides a preliminary analysis of the type of economic modeling that can address network neutrality, as well as of the type of results that can be expected.     

Quality Competition and Social Welfare in Markets with Partial Coverage: New Results*

We use a vertical product differentiation model under partial market coverage to study the social welfare optimum and duopoly equilibrium when convex costs of quality provision are either fixed or variable in terms of production. We show the following new results. First, under fixed costs, the social planner charges a uniform price for the single variant that just covers costs of quality provision. Like the duopoly equilibrium, this socially optimal pricing entails a partially uncovered market, but a smaller share of the market is served compared with the duopoly equilibrium. Second, for the variable cost case, it is socially optimal to provide both high‐ and low‐quality variants, but market shares need not be equal. This differs from the result in fully covered markets. Third, in the duopoly equilibrium, the quality spread is too wide under variable costs relative to the social optimum. Under fixed costs, the duopoly produces two variants, but quality is too low relative to the social optimum, which has only one variant.     

Effects of demographic,experiential, and attitudinal factors on occupational sex stereotypes

The purpose of this study was to (a) compare the occupational sex stereotypes of 366 college students with those reported by Shinar in 1975, and (b) examine the relationships between demographic, experiential, and attitudinal variables and these occupational sex stereotypes. The results indicated a significant difference in occupational ratings from Shinar's study, with females' perceptions shifting more than males' perceptions. In addition, subjects' gender, tenure with female managers, and attitudes toward women as managers, were shown to be significant predictors of occuptational ratings. The implications of these findings for both employees and managers are then discussed.

中国城市居住分异的制度成因及其调控——基于住房供给的视角

从住房制度、土地制度、税收制度等方面分析了加剧中国城市居住分异的制度性因素,并通过对国外及香港地区相关制度的分析,提出了对我国城市居住分异进行制度性调控的建议,即一方面要运用经济手段对住房市场进行干预和调节,另一方面要完善现有的住房供应制度,坚持住房有分异,分异有尺度,以利于社会的和谐发展.     

养老金制度的结构性改革与寿险公司的市场拓展

OECD国家养老金制度的结构性改革体现在两个层面：一是养老金制度整体结构的调整；二是政府主导下的公共养老金计划运行机制的转变。基于OECD国家经验数据的回归分析，国家公共养老金计划的保障水平与商业寿险深度之间具有高度负相关性。立足于我国养老金制度改革的政策取向，寿险公司应积极致力于养老金市场拓展，包括谋求参与国家基本养老保险个人账户养老金的发放及个人账户积累养老基金的投资运营；积极参与企业年金市场开拓，充当企业年金基金的法人受托机构；调整寿险产品定位，大力开拓城镇和农村商业养老保险市场。     

差异化战略:《新周刊》新锐之道

现在的杂志界“同质化”现象泛滥,许多刊物从封面到内容都是低层次重复。整个中国杂志界由于受体制的限制和束缚,存在创新意识和原创精神的缺失,难觅成熟的商业操盘。《新周刊》作为新闻时事杂志的“异类”,充分运用差异化战略,步步为营,闯出了一片新天地。文章从专题、封面设计、受众定位、经营方法等方面阐述了《新周刊》的差异化战略。     

Minimum Quality Standards under Asymmetric Duopoly with Endogenous Quality Ordering: A Note

In this note, we revisit minimum quality standards (MQS) under a vertically differentiated duopoly. We generalize the model in Ronnen (1991) and Valletti (2000) by introducing asymmetry into the fixed cost of quality improvement and by explicitly taking into account the endogeneity of quality ordering. In the generalized model, we show that the results derived by Ronnen (1991) and Valletti (2000) are largely robust.
