基于灰色理论的项目管理成熟度模型探析

将模糊理论和灰色系统理论作了对比,提出了一种新的研究方法:灰色综合评判;利用灰色多层次综合评判法,尝试对项目管理成熟度模型进行评判,探讨更加准确、全面、科学的项目管理的方法,其目的在于丰富项目管理成熟度的评价方法,建立另一种测量模式。     

Dividend decisions in the property and liability insurance industry: mutual versus stock companies

This article examines the effect of organizational forms on corporate dividend decisions by exploring the differences in dividend payout ratios between mutual and stock property–liability (P–L) insurers in the US. Our large sample evidence suggests: (1) mutual insurers tend to have a lower dividend payout ratio than stock insurers and the observed difference is about 4% points, holding other factors constant; (2) mutual insurers tend to adjust dividend payout ratios toward their long-run target levels more slowly than stock firms. These results are consistent with the capital constraints and/or greater agency costs of equity in mutual insurers.

Food Scares and Trust: A European Study

The complex interactions between the determinants of food purchase under risk are explored using the SPARTA model, based on the theory of planned behaviour, and estimated through a combination of multivariate statistical techniques. The application investigates chicken consumption choices in two scenarios: (a) a ‘standard’ purchasing situation; and (b) following a hypothetical Salmonella scare. The data are from a nationally representative survey of 2,725 respondents from five European countries: France, Germany, Italy, the Netherlands and the United Kingdom. Results show that the effects and interactions of behavioural determinants vary significantly within Europe. Only in the case of a food scare do risk perceptions and trust come into play. The policy priority should be on building and maintaining trust in food and health authorities and research institutions, while food chain actors could mitigate the consequences of a food scare through public trust. No relationship is found between socio‐demographic variables and consumer trust in food safety information.     

双液位计量分离器计算原油产量与含水率及理论

克拉玛依油田稠油和稀油的生产过程中，对油井产出液的含水率测定，经历过化验、含水分析仪两个阶段。含水分析仪在测定稠油含水率时，黏液粘在含水分析仪的探头上时而测得含水率100％，时而含水为零，含水分析仪在稠油的生产过程中有很大的局限性。利用油水密度差的特性，通过两个液位计的位差计算出井流物的含水率。在油井的生产中期以前准确度高，操作方便，成本低。     

竞技体育道德风险与逆向选择行为分析——基于博弈理论

竞技体育是一项机会成本相当大的事业，在运动成绩产权归属明晰的前提下，在社会保障制度供给短缺的条件下，竞技体育市场出现了不道德行为和逆向选择行为。文章对这一行为的产生进行探悉并运用博弈论的相关知识给出了一种解释。     

论仲裁条款对提单受让人的法律效力——以仲裁协议效力扩张理论为视角

仲裁条款对提单受让人的法律效力问题一直备受争议,长期以来都未有定论。提单转让的单方性,阻碍了提单仲裁条款根据传统的当事人意思自治原则取得法律效力。随着现代仲裁法学的不断发展,新的仲裁协议效力扩张理论为该问题的解决,提供了新的法理基础。根据该理论,提单受让人同意仲裁的,仲裁条款对其产生法律效力;提单受让人不同意仲裁的,仲裁条款对其不产生法律效力;而承运人却始终受到仲裁条款的约束,无权拒绝仲裁。     

Corporate discourse and environmental performance in Argentina

There is substantial research and policy interest in the relationship between firms and the natural environment, including how this relationship is influenced by regulators, international pressures, rival firms and stakeholder demands. With some exceptions, the ‘softer’ dimensions of environmental aspect management – how attitudes, beliefs and perceptions and the human factors drive corporate behaviour – have been understudied. The work that exists tends to be informal, and allows little scope for the statistical validation that is required for robust inference. This paper examines whether corporate values towards the environment affect a firm's environmental performance. It uses survey methods as well as content and discourse analyses of interview text and corporate reports and web sites to explore the links between managerial ‘mindsets’ and the environmental performance of the firms of which they are a part. Though the application is Argentina, the lessons learned can be generalized to other developing and industrialized countries. Copyright © 2006 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd and ERP Environment.     

试论以人为本价值取向的普遍性诉求

以人为本的科学发展观的提出，标志着中国共产党人执政理念的深化和拓展。以人为本不仅是科学发展观的核心，而且是社会主义社会的基本价值取向，其社会价值远远超过发展观的范畴。以人为本的普遍价值表现在：从现实基础来看，以人为本是中国现实社会发展的迫切要求；从适用范围来看，以人为本具有极大的广泛性和普适性；从贯彻落实的层面来看，以人为本从理论到实践的转化需要全社会的不懈努力。     

西方马克思主义:修正抑或发展——一种新的理解的尝试

我国学界对西方马克思主义的研究．长期以来要么持一种“修正论”的态度，要么持一种“发展论”的观点。这种简单的“二分法”及其争论影响了西方马克思主义的评价和研究。本文试图进行一种新的理解的尝试，认为西方马克思主义是一种由众多理论组成的驳杂理论．既需要细致地研究每一种理论与马克思主义的关系，也需要细致地研究每一个代表人物在不同历史阶段的思想变化，以及对每一种理论、每一种观点、每一个人物的思想进行细致的、具体的研究和分析，才能使西方马克思主义的研究处在同一平面而有利于展开对话，继而可以作出相对合理的、甚至正确的评价，使其研究得到深入开展。
