历史文化村镇的保护途径探讨——参与式社区规划途径的适用性

历史文化村镇保护的目的不仅在于保护其历史建成环境,保护其所代表的传统文化、民俗、社会关系等方面的原真性,更在于改善当地居民的居住环境,保持地区发展活力,以及促进传统文化的延续和发展。文中分析了现有历史文化村镇保护模式和途径存在的问题,提出应将传统城市规划和社区规划有效结合,建议历史文化村镇的保护应采用基于居民参与、社区自治和自助的参与式社区规划新途径,并详细阐述了参与式社区规划在历史文化村镇保护中的适用性、工作过程和路线以及特点。

新农民视角下的新型农村社区建设问题

农村社区建设不能局限于对城市生活的模仿,应当根据新时代农民的特点,充分发挥农村现有的资源优势,实现农民利益诉求与新型农村社区建设的有机整合。当前的农村社区建设与农民的众多诉求还存在诸多冲突。新型农村社区建设应强调突出农村、农业、农民的特点,以农民为建设主体,以满足农民诉求为目标,通过整合资源、完善服务,提升生活质量,建设和谐宜居的新农村。     

贫困农村农民培训模式的创新——以广西农村社区学习中心为例

实施农民教育和培训工程是现阶段提高农民素质、减少和消除贫困的重要措施。广西是"贫困农村社区发展项目"(PRCDP)的试点省之一,以该项目的教育分项目中的社区学习中心子项目为例,在了解传统农民培训模式的局限性的基础上,通过对比分析传统培训模式和社区学习中心培训模式在组织管理、决策方式、培训方式和培训内容等方面的异同,总结社区学习中心培训模式的创新价值     

社群信息学视角下我国众创空间效应提升机制研究

在“大众创业,万众创新”政策激励下,我国众创空间数量激增,但较多众创空间发展效应不佳。为了提升众创空间效应,促进众创空间可持续发展,从社群信息学视角切入,构建ICT技术介入-社群空间结构与开放性-社群知识多层次交互-众创空间效应提升分析框架。在该框架下,选取目前绩效佳、效果好的众创空间贝壳社、北大创业训练营及方糖小镇进行多案例分析,探究其效应内在提升机制,为我国众创空间效应提升提出切实可行的建议。

Engaging with homelessness in the City of Tshwane: Ethical and practical considerations

ABSTRACT

Policies and practices aimed at developing more engaged universities that are responsive to the needs of society have become key features of the higher education landscape of most countries. Visions of universities ‘engaged’ in matters of local importance increasingly require academics to reframe their scholarship as some form of ‘engagement’. This requirement has been addressed in many different disciplines and has been met with ambivalence. Academics who see engagement as a new form of ‘public good’ find it enhancing of their teaching and research activities, while others view engaged work as unnecessary and problematic ‘third mission’ activities that impede on ‘normal’ academic work. This article aims to contribute to these debates by interrogating the paradoxes of action and inaction. Drawing on recent experiences in reviewing a policy on homelessness for a municipality in South Africa, the article seeks to bring the ambiguities and challenges of engagement into greater visibility.

THE BENEFITS AND COSTS OF MONETARY UNION IN SOUTHERN AFRICA: A CRITICAL SURVEY OF THE LITERATURE

Abstract.  With the 14 members of the Southern African Development Community (SADC) having set the objective of adopting a common currency for the year 2018, an expanding empirical literature has emerged evaluating the benefits and costs of a common-currency area in Southern Africa. This paper reviews that literature, focusing on two categories of studies: (1) those that assume that a country's characteristics are invariant to the adoption of a common currency and (2) those that assume that a monetary union alters an economy's structure, resulting in trade creation and credibility gains. The literature reviewed suggests that a relatively small group of countries, typically including South Africa, satisfies the criteria necessary for monetary unification. The literature also suggests that, in a monetary union comprising all SADC countries and a regional central bank that sets monetary policy to reflect the average economic conditions (e.g. fiscal balances) in the region, the potential losses (i.e. higher inflation) from giving up an existing credible national central bank, a relevant consideration for South Africa, could outweigh any potential benefits of trade creation resulting from a common currency.     

Innovation performance across Europe

The innovation performance of firms is primarily determined by their own innovative activities and the interaction with their innovation-related environment. This environment typically differs among countries. We assess empirically these differences on firms' innovation performance. To that end we first estimate the relationship between an aggregate innovation input measure and an aggregate innovation output measure, thereby explicitly controlling for structural differences between countries. We then consider the extent to which firms located in a particular country perform better or worse than this estimated benchmark performance. The analysis is based on a panel dataset that we have constructed from Eurostat's first and second Community Innovation Survey. In order to control for possible data contamination we employ an outlier-robust estimator. It appears that among the fourteen countries considered Italy, Germany and Ireland offer an environment that facilitates most the transformation of innovation-related inputs into commercial outputs while the environment in Denmark is the least facilitating.
