家族和谐与企业可持续成长——基于家族权力配置的视角

本文以家族企业全部家族成员为研究对象,提出了基于权力配置的家族和谐指数的测量方法,并实证检验了家族和谐及其与亲缘关系的交互项与企业可持续成长之间的关系。本文的研究结果表明:(1)家族和谐与企业绩效存在倒U型关系,即过于强调家族权力集中而不顾及家族和谐,或过于强调权力平均分配的形式上的和谐都不利于企业成长,只有那种考虑到家族成员个体差异的相对集权的和谐机制才有利于企业实现价值最大化;(2)家族成员间的亲缘关系影响到和谐机制的设计,核心家庭关系对家族和谐度的功效具有显著的负向调节作用,即相对于远亲家庭成员所控制的家族企业,家族和谐在核心家庭成员所控制的企业中的边际贡献更为明显。     

A wait‐and‐see approach to investments: Do elections play a role?

Unlike previous studies on electoral investment cycle—the tendency for firms to reduce investment expenditure during an election year relative to nonelection years—that have primarily focused on developed countries, this study documents cycles in private investments in relation to the timing of national elections across a broader set of African countries. The estimation results indicate that during election years, private investment decreases by an average of 16% relative to nonelection years. The results also reveal that private investment falls in the year leading up to an election and increases in the immediate year after an election, consistent with the view that electoral uncertainty deters investments. These findings suggest that electoral investment cycles apply strongly to African countries.     

社会主义市场经济条件下的道德建构

市场经济的行为准则是提倡买卖公平,实现利益最大化。市场行为与道德存在一定程度的冲突,只有以市场经济为基础,积极削弱与克服负面效应,才能把道德和利益之间的可能的冲突转变为和解。市场经济的道德构建必须以法制为基础、要坚持以人为本,诚信是市场经济道德构建的核心。     

恩格斯婚姻家庭观

恩格斯的著作《家庭、私有制和国家的起源》,对于婚姻家庭的研究,有着重要的意义。在婚姻家庭的历史发展上,恩格斯认为婚姻家庭是历史发展的,具有连续性;在婚姻家庭的道德层面上,恩格斯认为人们在研究婚姻家庭时,要一分为二的看待不同时期、社会、地区的婚姻爱情观念和制度,认为婚姻家庭应该是合乎道德的,同时对资产阶级婚姻家庭进行了批判;在婚姻家庭的未来发展上,他对共产主义社会婚姻家庭也提出了自己的设想,形成了自己的婚姻家庭观。     

Normative Power Europe and the Moral Economy of Africa–EU Ties: A Conceptual Reorientation of ‘Normative Power’

‘Normative power’ is an increasingly popularised concept in the study of EU external relations in fields including military policy, human rights, and international trade. Defined by Manners, it acknowledges the normative foundations of the European project, examines how Europe acts to (re)shape internationally accepted norms, and makes the claim that Europe ought to influence external partners' conception of ‘normal’ behaviour in pursuit of a just global order. This article, however, argues that a moral economy perspective is central to a critical reorientation of the concept of normative power towards appraisal of discrepancies between nominal EU norms and material EU policy outcomes. Examining Europe's ‘normative power’ in its relations with the African, Caribbean, and Pacific (ACP) countries, it demonstrates how a moral economy of ACP–EU ties has been instituted in negotiation with European ethical norms as to solidarity with ‘the poor’. Nevertheless, the moral economy of ACP–EU ties is seen not to be ‘moral’ in terms of outcomes for vulnerable citizens in ACP countries. Rather the embedding of moral norms concerning pro-poor ‘development’ has rationalised asymmetric economic ties. ‘Normative power’ is understood as the EU's utilisation of moral norms in the public legitimisation and self-rationalisation of geopolitical interest and commercial gain in its relations with external ‘partners’.     

非正式制度变迁与家庭经济增长——以云南临沧耿马县傣族寨子为例

非正式制度是制度构成中的重要因素,它不仅对宏观总体经济的稳定起着重要的作用,而且对微观个体经济的发展也发挥着重要的影响。改革开放以来,民族地区的非正式制度发生了巨大的变迁,这种变迁直接改变了民族地区家庭经济的增长效率。     

基于OPS的循环经济拓展模型及其应用——以上海为例

发展循环经济已经上升为国家发展战略,要求我们对循环经济的理论和实践进行深化研究。本文章分析了循环经济基础模型及其在实践中存在的问题,从对象一过程一主体（简写为OPS）三维的整合思考,提出了基于OPS的循环经济拓展模型,并以上海为例阐述了该模型的应用思路。     

Classical political economy: the subsistence wage,and job guarantee concerns

Abstract:

In the theoretical framework of classical political economy, including the revisions of Marx and the more recent work of Piero Sraffa and others, the concept of the subsistence wage figures prominently. Here, following a recounting of this concept and demonstrating its significance not only for classical theory but also for larger social concerns, I argue that the “base wage” (as it is sometimes termed) as articulated within a “Job Guarantee” program, is (or should be) comparable to the subsistence wage but requires modification to make it (roughly) equivalent. It will be demonstrated that adherents of the classical approach did not rest their wage theory on a quasi-neoclassical supply–demand approach (with some primitive marginal productivity notion lying behind a supposed demand for labor schedule), but understood wages as socially determined where institutional and historic forces established a normative standard around which market wages gravitated. Such an approach was shared by, among others, Thorstein Veblen and John Maynard Keynes.     

基于空间自相关的非洲经济格局

通过收集1992—2000年非洲经济发展的统计数据,选用10项代表性指标,采用均方差权数法计算各指标的权重,计算得出非洲各国家的经济综合指数,并采用空间自相关方法探讨非洲各国的经济分异特征与规律。分析结果表明:Moran’s I指数为0.0214,非洲经济总体上存在弱的正空间自相关,说明非洲没有明显的区域经济集聚,而是具有较强的空间异质性,经济发展基本为“增长极”模式,尚未形成明显的经济区划。根据非洲各国的经济综合指数和局域空间自相关系数,采用层次聚类分析方法,将非洲经济发展模式划分为6种类型:集聚发展型、极核发展型、集中贫困型、贫困核型、强嵌套发展型和弱嵌套发展型。最后,对非洲经济空间格局形成的原因进行了简要分析。     

The debt hangover: Renegotiation with noncontractible investment

This paper analyses the incentives of the equityholders of a levered company to undertake noncontractible investments. This noncontrability is shown to seriously impede the efficiency of any renegotiation process in the debt overhang problems. Conditions for obtaining a fully efficient level of investment choice are derived.

Investments and uncertainty revisited: the case of the US economy

This article examines the relationship between investments and uncertainty for the US economy, as the latter is approximated by consumer sentiment, purchasing managers’ prospects and economic policy uncertainty. Contrary to the existing literature, we provide evidence that this relationship is time varying. The time variation is attributed to the observed temporal replacement effect between private and public investments. Furthermore, we show that there are two distinct correlation regimes in this relationship and unless we concentrate on them, we cannot fully unravel the real link between uncertainty and investments. Finally, we examine whether the use of the two correlation regimes provides better forecasts for investments compared to the use of the uncertainty indices alone. The forecasting exercise reveals that the use of correlation regimes provides statistically superior out-of-sample forecasts.     

我国国际资本流动：直接投资与非直接投资影响因素的比较研究

本文基于向量误差修正模型对1982-2010年期间我国直接投资类、间接投资类（含其他投资）、错误与遗漏及投资收益类三种类型国际资本流动的影响因素进行了实证研究。实证检验结果表明：在长期,我国三类国际资本流动与人民币对美元的实际汇率升贴水年率之间为负向变动关系,与中美利差、中美通胀之差、我国实际经济增长及人民币对美元的实际汇率预期之间为正向变动关系;在短期,三类国际资本流动与上述影响因素之间关系并非一致;实际经济增长是我国直接投资类国际资本流动的主要原因,人民币对美元的实际汇率预期是我国非直接投资国际资本流动的主要原因。     

民营经济发展中政府行为失范的表现及对策

政府在管理民营经济中存在着政策歧视、审批经济、管理失调、职责不清、“三乱”不止、地方保护主义、盲目指示等失范现象。它不但制约了民营经济的发展,而且损害了党和政府的形象。规范政府行为,促进民营经济发展必须以“三个代表”重要思想为指导,转变政府职能。廉洁政府行为,取消准入歧视,加快立法建设,同时民营经济也要严格遵纪守法,树立良好形象。     

Failure to Expand? Socio-Technical Practices and Moral Judgement in Markets for Biodiversity Offsets

Markets have become an important form of governance in the neoliberal era. The ideology of markets as the most efficient form of organising economic activity has led to the expansion of their usage, both in terms of what is governed by the market, but also in terms of the spaces in which the practices of a given market apply. However, there have been important challenges to market expansion, particularly on political and ethical grounds. This paper analyses how the socio-technical practices of market expansion can be affected by political contestation and individual moral judgements. This is analysed in the context of two markets for biodiversity offsets, in the United States and England. In both cases, regulators attempted to devise and standardise calculative mechanisms and socio-technical practices that promoted the use and expansion of the market. However, these socio-technical market practices have struggled to cross and negotiate uneven political and social spaces, being subject to moral judgements and political contestation. The paper demonstrates how the socio-technical practices of market expansion are affected by social entanglements, highlighting how this creates limits to the expansion of the market as a form of governance.
