异质性、分割生产与国际贸易

在产品的生产链条可以任意分割的情况下,本文考察了不同生产率的公司供应国外市场模式的差异。生产率水平较低的公司选择出口方式;生产率水平较高的公司选择分割生产投资方式,其中,生产率水平越高的公司配置在国外的生产环节越多;生产率水平最高的那些公司选择水平型投资方式。在行业层面,一个行业的技术可分割性越强和行业内公司生产率的异质性越大时,行业的产品出口相对于直接投资的比例越小。

Modeling Housing Market Fundamentals: Empirical Evidence of Extreme Market Conditions

This article examines the issues encountered in the modeling of market fundamentals during a period of extreme price behavior. The study analyzes the price behavior of the residential property market in Ireland using a number of alternative methodological approaches in the estimation of fundamental market value. Limitations in conventional models such as an inverted demand model are highlighted, in particular, with regard to diagnostic concerns and the static nature of the model. The use of an error correction framework provides more consistent and robust findings. The analysis does appear to indicate that a substantial premium over fundamental values developed in the Irish market during the late 1990s, reaching a peak in 1999 and 2000. However, in recent years, prices have largely been in line with fundamentals.     

The regional character of Asian multinational enterprises

In recent issues of this Journal a debate has raged concerning the appropriate nature of academic research in the Asia Pacific region. While we support the desire for both rigor and regional relevance in this research, we wish to demonstrate a strong commonality between the performance of large Asian firms and others from Europe and North America. This prompts us to question the need for a new theory of the MNE based on the experience of Asian firms. Like their counterparts elsewhere, the large Asian firms mostly operate on an intra-regional basis. While in the literature it has been assumed that the path to success for Asian firms is globalization, we show that the data supporting this is confined to a handful of unrepresentative case studies. We also present a bibliometric analysis which shows an overwhelming case study sample selection bias in academic studies towards this small number of unrepresentative cases.

论二元经济结构的转化趋向

促使二元经济结构转化是发展中国家经济发展的一个关键,然而,现有文献不能为经济结构的转化趋向提供有说服力的解释,这影响了人们对二元经济问题的认识及转化路径的选择。本文认为二元经济反差源于两部门不同的分工水平,结构转变的趋向必须在分工演进的视角下才可能得到解释。基于此,本文构建了一个新兴古典经济学模型,证明了随着分工组织的演进和分工水平的提高,二元经济结构转变体现为一个工业化,以及在此基础上的服务业的兴起和城市化水平提高的过程,而促使分工演进的关键是交易效率提高,或者说交易费用降低,理论推导的命题能够得到经验数据的支持,这样就内在一致地解释了二元经济结构在产业和空间等方面的转化趋向。

A model of intergenerational transfers

Summary. Extending some existing literature, this paper formalizes the idea that intergenerational transfers occur because people care about the “characteristics” (i.e quantity and quality) of their offspring, rather than their children's welfare per se or consumption. The model analyzes this transfer motive in an infinite Markovian game framework, and it proves the existence of a stationary Markov Perfect equilibrium. Further, the analysis shows that under certain conditions, the proposed transfer motive will diminish, as the average income of an economy is sufficiently high. Thus, it suggests that as incomes continue to rise beyond a certain level, the (extended) life-cycle hypothesis will likely be a better and better approximation for explaining most people's saving behavior. This result also provides an explanation for the decline of the saving rates in the U.S. and other developed countries. Received: December 28, 1998; revised version: February 17, 2000
