中日经贸关系的战略思考

近两年,中日两国的经贸关系因历史和政治原因而受到了一定的影响,中国和日本都是东亚地区的重要国家,中日两国之间的经贸关系不仅影响着各自国家的经济发展,也影响着东亚地区的经济合作和整个亚洲未来的经济发展趋势。本文利用贸易依存度、投资依存度等指标分析了中日两国经贸关系的相互依存性,指出了中日经贸关系中存在的问题,并根据一个多世纪以来中日两国间的经贸政策,对发展中日经贸关系做了战略思考。我国在加强与日本经济合作的同时,需加快实施“自主创新的竞争战略”。

Examining differences in competitive intelligence practice: China,Japan, and the West

This article identifies the state of competitive intelligence (CI) in Asia—specifically, two of its most prominent economic powers, China and Japan. Comparisons with Western, mainly U.S. practice, are made, particularly where data and management research from those countries supports this approach. In terms of current practice, CI in Japan is more developed than in China, although China continues to devote increasing attention and resources to the area. Decision makers in multinational companies, competing in China or Japan, or with firms that originate there, should be aware of the competitive implications emanating from their utilization of CI. © 2009 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.     

亚洲三角贸易模式与中国的贸易增长

文章从亚洲三角贸易模式的角度出发分析了中国贸易增长的来源,并揭示了中国巨额贸易顺差的真相。研究发现,亚洲三角贸易模式夸大了中国出口和贸易顺差的规模。通过参加亚洲三角贸易模式,日本、韩国以及中国台湾等通过直接投资和产业转移,在中国建立生产和出口加工基地,从而将其对欧美的贸易顺差转移为中国对欧美的贸易顺差,扩大了中国与欧美的贸易摩擦,恶化了我国的国际贸易环境。     

Are US Exports Different from China’s Exports? Evidence from Japan’s Imports

Are US exports different from China’s exports? If so, how? This article attempts to answer this question, using product‐level manufacturing import data from Japan. To make the comparison clear, this article also examines exports from the EU. The results indicate that more than 85 per cent and 83 per cent of products exported by the US and the EU, respectively, to Japan are also commonly exported from China. Both the US and the EU export products are priced higher than China’s export products, regardless of industries. This result suggests that quality differences matter in explaining the high overlap of China’s export products with US and EU export products. In some industries, however, the price differences of US and EU exports relative to China’s exports are relatively small. This result implies that either Chinese firms are upgrading the quality of their products, or US and EU firms are improving their efficiencies such that they can compete with Chinese firms.     

中日服务业产业内贸易研究

通过对2001～2005年中日服务业产业内贸易GL指数的计算和分析,得出中日服务贸易以产业内贸易为主的结论,但各行业产业内贸易水平差异较大,运输和通讯行业的产业内贸易水平最高.并通过计算各行业贸易竞争优势指数,分析中日两国在各服务业的竞争力情况.     

中日贸易现状及发展趋势分析

本首先从中日两国相互依存关系入手，分析了两间的贸易状况和新的贸易特点：贸易结构的不断改变——从产业间贸易向产业内贸易转变。然后在此基础上指出了中日两国产生贸易摩擦的原因，最后进一步阐述两国贸易现状发展的趋势。     

中日服务业产业内贸易影响因素分析

本文利用联合国服务贸易数据库2000-2010年的数据,通过GL指数、MIIT指数、HIIT指数和VIIT指数,对中日服务业产业内贸易水平进行分析,认为中日服务贸易以垂直型产业内贸易为主,并且服务贸易各部门产业内贸易水平差异较大,运输、旅游、通讯、建筑、保险、金融和其他商业服务的产业内贸易水平较高;对影响中日服务业产业内贸易发展的因素进行回归分析表明:人均收入水平差异和市场规模是影响中日服务业产业内贸易水平的重要因素,中日人均收入水平差异和市场开放度与中日服务业产业内贸易正相关,市场规模和日本对华直接投资与中日服务业产业内贸易负相关。     

中日货物贸易中的碳排放问题研究

首先使用中国2002年、2007年的投入产出表和日本2000年、2005年的投入产出表数据,对中日两国主要贸易产品的碳强度进行了测算。然后选取典型产品,采用行业面板数据对中日两国的货物贸易与碳排放的关系进行了实证研究。结果表明:中国对日本的主要出口产品中,除钢铁及其制品外,其他产品的碳强度均高于日本;中国出口产品的竞争力越强,其碳强度越高,而日本出口产品的竞争力与碳强度无显著关联;提高产业内贸易水平可以明显降低中国出口产品的碳强度;机械制造业存在日本向中国的产业转移现象;从降低碳排放的角度出发,日本的出口贸易结构优于中国的出口贸易结构。     

Exploring expatriate adjustment through identity perspective

This study reveals multifaceted identities experienced by corporate expatriates and how these identities are related to expatriate host country work and non-work adjustment. Specifically, we take a symbolic interactionism-based identity theory perspective and examine qualitative data from 73 corporate expatriates in China and Japan, revealing an expatriate identity (i.e., identification with being a manager and a foreigner), and a cultural identity (i.e., identification with home and host country cultures) which through identity stability/change are related to the mode and degree of expatriate work and non-work adjustment. Our findings suggest that these identities explain how corporate expatriates shape their new environment to their preferences, instead of adjusting to it.     

中日服务贸易发展比较及对我国的启示

20世纪80年代以来,国际服务贸易成为新的发展热点,但我国的服务贸易发展相对滞后,连年的服务贸易逆差且有逐渐扩大的趋势。作为亚洲的两大经济体,我国和日本在服务贸易发展方面有很多相似之处,但日本的服务贸易整体竞争力要强于我国。因此,借鉴日本的服务贸易发展策略,对我国服务贸易的发展有着重要的现实意义。     

Changing facets of leadership in East Asia: globalization,innovation and performance in Japan,South Korea and China

ABSTRACT

Japan, South Korea and China are the three juggernauts of the East Asian economy. In gross domestic product terms, China is the world’s second largest economy, Japan the third and South Korea the eleventh. Also, Japan and South Korea are the only two of the OECD’s prestigious Development Assistance Committee members from Asia, providing a large combined annual budget to developing countries, and the only two Asian countries of the seven-member 50–20 Club with members with a population of 50 million or more and a per capita GDP of US$20,000 or more. Many studies have offered explanations of this Asian economic and corporate success, although few have attempted to explain the leadership styles in these three countries. Globalization has also changed these economies enormously, leading to the possible convergence with universalism forces and commensurate globalization of their leadership styles. This collection, therefore, presents some of the most recent findings of leadership studies on Japan, South Korea and China in light of this.     

Can Japan or China replace the US as the monetary anchor for Hong Kong and Macau?

This contribution attempts to examine the relative importance of the US, Japan and China to Hong Kong and Macau, two effective dollar-based currency boards today, by evaluating the economic potentiality of Japan or China as an alternative monetary anchor country against the US. The assessment is made according to the criteria prescribed by the optimum currency areas (OCA) theory. In addition to that, a subsidiary analysis is done to evaluate in general the suitability of their fixed exchange rate regimes, regardless of the anchor country. Amidst the existing dollar linked arrangement and the rising dominance of China, significant evidence suggests that Japan, despite its lacklustre domestic conditions, might be at least as good a monetary anchor as the US for Hong Kong. In the meantime, China seems to be a more promising monetary anchor alternative for Macau. The features of Hong Kong and Macau also appear to broadly and endogenously support their fixed exchange rates, but not all the features of Macau, a HK-dollar-based currency board, are consistently symmetrical with those of Hong Kong.

Sony Style in China

Since the normalization of the diplomatic ties between China and ） Japan, the bilateral economic relations have deepened continually. According to the statistic of Japan, China passed U.S. to become Japan＇s top trade partner as well as is the second largest export market for Japan and is the largest import resource for Japan. Japan companies such as Mitsui, Sumitomo, Sony and Panasonic, have set the subsidiaries in China and explored their scales. This year 2008 marks the 30th anniversary of the signing of the ChinaJapan Treaty of Peace and Friendship.     

Japan's Role in China's Economic Transformation Since 1978

Since the initiation of the open door policy in 1978, the Chinese leaders have sought trade with and investment from advanced countries, including Japan, which has been a major trading partner since the 1960s. Much of Japan's investment to date, however, has been indirect, through govern ment loans for sectors like infrastructure. Major Japanese manufacturers are just beginning to invest heavily in China. In their relationship with China, the Japanese have the advantage of shared cultural heritage, geographical proximity and economic complementarity. In addition, in order to effect the transition from a command to a market economy, the Chinese have sought to follow, where appropriate, Japanese practices in such areas as enterprise reform, taxation and the training of managers. Japanese investors are encouraged by low labour costs and a growing Chinese domestic market but inhibited by such factors as low skill levels and poor infrastructure. Finally, China and Japan are set to become major players in the Asia-Pacific region, whether in competition or cooperation.
