Here come the men in black Technology and anxiety in the postmodern age

This review of the film Men in Black argues that what used to be alarming in the science fiction genre has now become its main source of humour. As a reactionary response to the dystopic X-Files, MiB is an elaborate parody which seeks to recuperate ideological ground lost by the X-Files' examination of gender and technology in contemporary culture. Anxiety about the roles of technology, gender and the state are replaced by humour about the notion of anxiety itself. Anxious we may be at the close of the millenium, but MiB tells us to just laugh it all away.     

A reduced PDE method for European option pricing under multi-scale,multi-factor stochastic volatility

The number of tailor-made hybrid structured products has risen more prominently to fit each investor’s preferences and requirements as they become more diversified. The structured products entail synthetic derivatives such as combinations of bonds and/or stocks conditional on how they are backed up by underlying securities, stochastic volatility, stochastic interest rates or exchanges rates. The complexity of these multi-asset structures yields lots of difficulties of pricing the products. Because of the complexity, Monte-Carlo simulation is a possible choice to price them but it may not produce stable Greeks leading to a trouble in hedging against risks. In this light, it is desirable to use partial differential equations with relevant analytic and numerical techniques. Even if the partial differential equation method would generate stable security prices and Greeks for single asset options, however, it may result in the curse of dimensionality when pricing multi-asset derivatives. In this study, we make the best use of multi-scale nature of stochastic volatility to lift the curse of dimensionality for up to three asset cases. Also, we present a transformation formula by which the pricing group parameters required for the multi-asset options in illiquid market can be calculated from the underlying market parameters.     

论“十二五”时期的税制改革——兼谈对结构性减税与结构性增税的认识

作为积极财政政策的重要内容之一,2008年以来实施的一系列结构性减税措施在鼓励投资、扩大消费、促进就业、调整经济结构等方面发挥了重要作用,为我国应对金融危机冲击、保持经济持续平稳较快发展作出了积极贡献。2011年中国进入十二五发展时期,财税改革将为服务大局扮演非常重要的角色。本文认为,应在继续优化结构性减税的同时,适时适度实施合理的结构性增税,推进税制改革完善,使其更好地服务于经济平稳较快增长和经济发展方式转变。     

绿色金融是绿色经济发展的推动力

在论述我国环境污染严峻形势的基础上,对如何构建绿色金融、促进绿色经济发展和构建绿色经济必须采取一系列的配套措施提出了建议。构建绿色金融关键在银行业金融机构经营指导思想上,必须要牢固树立社会责任和环保责任的理念,把环保责任因素纳入银行业务经营之中。绿色金融对绿色经济有一定促进作用,要构建绿色经济还要象美国那样,严格环保立法和执法。     

Agricultural productivity and natural resource use in southern Africa

This paper examines the natural resource status of southern Africa and analyzes the critical linkages between the performance of southern African agriculture and natural resource use patterns. The implication of on-going natural resource use trends on poverty, food insecurity, and environmental degradation are also analyzed. The challenges that must be addressed including, how best to intensify agricultural production, the types of technologies to promote and the imperatives of production efficiency and intra-regional trade are examined. The paper concludes with some suggestions on how best to proceed in the future to be able to successfully address the challenges identified.
