中国高校人力资源管理创新绩效评价研究

利用DEA方法对我国2005-2009年的高校人力资源管理创新绩效进行了评价和分析,并运用Malmquist生产率指数对其绩效变动进行了测算。结果显示,我国高校人力资源管理创新绩效水平较为低下,纯技术效率低下是其主要原因;全要素生产率呈现较为显著的增长趋势,技术效率水平提高是引致TFP增长的主要原因,而技术进步对TFP有负面效应;我国高校人力资源管理创新绩效水平存在较为显著的省际和区域差异。     

政府创新偏好对区域创新绩效的影响——以经济增长为门槛变量

文章以我国30个省市11年的省际面板数据作为样本,利用面板数据门槛回归模型,分析了政府创新偏好受到经济增长影响对区域创新绩效的差异作用,研究表明:经济增长与区域创新绩效呈非线性关系;政府创新偏好受到经济增长的影响对创新绩效的作用存在门槛效应;研发投入、基础设施、外贸增长程度等对创新绩效的提升存在一定促进作用.并在此基础上提出相关建议以期根据经济增长水平合理调节政府创新偏好,有效促进地区创新绩效的提升.     

中国工业增长模式转型绩效研究——基于1998～2009年省际工业企业数据的实证考察

本文采用非径向、非角度SBM方向性距离函数法,对中国1998～2009年省际规模以上工业企业的内涵型增长效率进行深入考察。对内涵型增长模式实证考察结果显示:忽视资源与环境约束的传统效率评价方式对中西部地区工业增长存在效率高估;工业总体内涵型增长状况不容乐观,但东部地区先于中西部地区向内涵型工业增长模式转型;中西部地区面临着工业增长与环境相协调的艰巨任务。本文的研究结果验证了我国工业部门增长中存在环境库兹涅茨曲线,但结果不支持污染避难所假说。     

省际资本流动的制度经济学分析

本文测算了1997～2007年中国省际间资本流动规模,并从制度经济学的视角实证研究了制度环境对省际资本流动的影响。研究发现:东部和中西部地区分别为资本净流入和净流出地区,省际资本流动呈现不均衡格局;制度环境是决定省际资本流动的重要因素,加强产权保护、降低非税负担和缩小政府规模能够显著促进地区资本净流入,减少政府对企业的干预也有利于地区资本净流入。因此,中西部地区要改变资本净流出态势,必须切实改善当地的制度环境。     

中国地区差距的历史考察与实证研究

回顾1949～1978年中国区域经济发展历程,运用泰尔指数对1978～2007年区域差距进行测度并按地区分解,结果发现:改革开放以来,中国的地区差距经历了一个先缩小后扩大的过程。从地区构成上看,东部地区内部的省际差异对中国地区差距影响显著,但呈明显的下降趋势;东北、中部和西部地区的内部省际差异对全国的地区差异贡献较小,西部地区内部省际差异存在扩大的趋势;地区间差距仍是中国地区差距最为突出的问题,且整体上呈现出明显的扩大趋势,但2004年以来,地区间差距出现了缩小的迹象。     

我国城市排水行业省级政府管理绩效研究

利用2005年和2008年两个特征年份的相关数据,分析我国城市排水行业省级政府管理绩效的省际、区域和分指标的时空差异特征.研究结果表明,我国城市排水行业的省际政府管理绩效水平还处于较低水平,省际之间差异较大,但差异有逐渐缩小的趋势,总体上东部地区的绩效水平高于中西部地区;北京、上海和广东三个省(市)是我国城市排水行业政府管理的领先者;区域间差异较为显著,但是绝对差距和相对差距都不断减小;监督管理水平及内部人员培训水平等指标稳步升高,行业与技术法规建设水平指标提高幅度有所差异.     

金融结构与经济增长的非线性门槛效应：基于最优金融结构的视角

基于最优金融结构视角,使用2001—2015年中国省际面板数据,利用门槛模型对金融结构与经济增长之间的非线性关系进行了实证检验。研究发现：金融结构在不同地区对经济增长的作用效果具有异质性,只有地区发展水平跨越一定的门槛值之后,金融结构市场导向的增强才能显著促进经济增长;经济发展水平与市场化水平越高、法治环境越完善,金融结构市场化的经济增长效应越显著;适度的金融发展水平有利于促进金融结构市场化的经济增长效应,金融发展过度时,金融结构市场导向的增强对经济增长促进作用不再显著。     

中国地区工业的动态环境绩效:基于DEA的经验分析

生态效率的年际变化能较好地度量动态环境绩效,它可分解为相对生态效率变化和环境技术变化两个部分.中国地区工业在2003～2007年间的经验分析结论表明:环境技术无效率普遍存在,这与经济发展水平没有直接联系;环境绩效总体上改善了,但省际差异却扩大了;环境绩效改善和恶化的主要原因分别在于希克斯中性环境技术进步和相对生态效率恶化.为改善环境绩效,各省应加大生态环保宣传力度、制定和实施科学的污染物排放标准、构建"官-产-学-研"四位一体的科技创新体系、推动地区交流与合作,并进行适宜技术选择等.     

中国区域经济增长方式比较研究：1978～2005

本文运用Malmquist指数对1978~2005年中国省区、三大地区间经济增长源泉比较分析,结果表明:要素投入和TFP对经济增长效应年际、省际变化比较大,要素投入的贡献高于TFP的贡献,但在不同的时期内,要素投入和TFP对经济增长效应不一;1990~1995年技术进步对经济增长贡献最高,而技术效率的贡献自1978年以来一直比较低;1978~2005年要素投入和TFP对三大地区经济增长的贡献顺序都是东部、中部、西部,并且年际变化不大,技术进步的贡献高于技术效率的贡献,并且东部高于中部,中部高于西部。     

省际贸易对中国经济增长的贡献研究

研究目标：考察省际贸易对经济增长的贡献。研究方法：区分结构影响与部门影响的因素分解模型。研究发现：第一,消费对中国经济增长的贡献比重在下降;省际调出因素和出口因素的贡献比重在上升。第二,1987年,省际调出仅在3个省份是经济增长的第一贡献因素;2007年,省际调出则在11个省份成为经济增长的第一贡献因素。第三,从省份视角看,尽管出口对经济增长的贡献比重在上升,但在2007年,省际调出贡献比重仍然是出口贡献比重的3.5倍;从部门视角看,省际调出的贡献比重也依然大于出口的贡献比重。第四,在将因素贡献比重变化的来源区分为结构影响与部门影响之后,不管是消费贡献比重的下降,还是省际调出和出口贡献比重的上升,部门影响均发挥着主导作用。研究创新：将省际贸易引入关于经济增长的因素分解模型。研究价值：对于目前步入“新常态”的中国经济,省际贸易可以成为未来中国经济新的增长点。     

Development in Information and Communications Technology (ICT) Statistics at the Australian Bureau of Statistics

This paper outlines the ICT statistical developments that the ABS has undertaken over recent years. These developments have been on both the supply side (ICT industry) and the demand side (use of IT by sector). The content of ABS ICT surveys has changed significantly over the last few years and are expected to develop further in line with industry changes and emerging policy needs.
Recent developments in household collections have been the inclusion of IT use questions in the 2001 Census of Population and Housing and in various ABS social surveys such as Children's Participation in Culture and Leisure Activities. Annual business IT use surveys are now conducted and include topics such as Internet commerce and IT security. Biennial ICT industry surveys are conducted to provide data on ICT production, imports and exports, ICT industry employment, performance and structure information. An Internet activity survey is run every six months and provides regional Internet access details and infrastructure details on Internet service providers.
A major development for 2002–03 will be the compilation of an ICT satellite account. ABS intends to produce an ICT Information Development Plan to guide its future statistical development work in the ICT field.     

Value at Risk in the Suburbs: Eminent Domain and the Geographical Politics of the US Foreclosure Crisis

Several US counties and local governments have recently considered a novel solution to the foreclosure crisis. They plan to use eminent domain to compel the owners of mortgage debt—and specifically of private‐label mortgage‐backed securities—to sell the debt to the government at a price reflecting the loan's market value. The government would then restructure the debt and resell it to new investors. The plans are striking because—in contrast to both development‐driven eminent domain and the federal subprime bank bailout—they would force investors to assume asset devaluation and increased long‐term risk. Notably, the plans have emerged as an instance of financialization‐focused politics in suburbs and suburban cities of color, specifically majority‐black and ‐Latino/a suburbs. Local support for the plans, we argue, is rooted in the long‐term disinvestment of these ‘suburbs of exception', which became targets of subprime lending and eventually sites where the ‘financial exception' has been localized. But these demographic shifts, fragmentation and fiscal pressures have at the same time created a suburban political terrain in which the plans have gained their strongest political support.     

Towards a Theory of Serendipity: A Systematic Review and Conceptualization

Serendipity – the notion of making surprising and valuable discoveries – plays a major role in the success of individuals and organizations alike. Previous research has established the importance of serendipity and identified important individual- and organizational-level antecedents. However, the literature has been dispersed and the boundaries of the concept have been blurry, leading to a lack of conceptual clarity and structure, and thus limiting validity and managerial actionability. Based on a systematic literature review, I synthesize existing management-related research on serendipity and explicate the emergence and composition of serendipity in the organizational context. I first identify three necessary conditions that differentiate serendipity from related concepts such as luck or targeted innovation: agency, surprise, and value. Then, I draw from the literature on sensemaking, event-based theorizing, and quantum-based approaches to management to conceptualize the process of cultivating serendipity in the organizational context as a process of enabling potentiality and materialization, and develop a multi-level theory of (cultivating) serendipity. This conceptualization contributes to our collective understanding of how, why, and when (i.e., under what conditions) organizations can leverage the value in the unexpected, which opens up fruitful avenues for further research.     

Accountability of NGOs in Bangladesh A critical overview

NGOs in Bangladesh have been recognized as effective change agents in the socio-economic arena throughout the world. Their contributions in micro credit, non-formal education and primary health care are widely known. NGOs play a significant role in society. NGO accountability, as a result, has become a critical issue. NGO accountability in Bangladesh has been examined here in relation to patrons, clients and themselves. Of the three relationships only accountability to patrons is in a near satisfactory state. Accountability to clients is handicapped by lack of opportunities of beneficiaries to participate meaningfully in NGO policy making. Accountability to themselves is adversely affected due to the adherence to a strictly hierarchical system and the influence of founding and charismatic NGO leaders.     

Towards an Asian model of human resource management? A comparative analysis of China,Japan and South Korea

There has been much discussion regarding the possible decline and weakening of national systems of human resource management (HRM). Yet, culture and institutions are often cited as the major stumbling blocks to this outcome. Such constraints may dissipate in the analysis, particularly if ‘regional clusters’ are considered where geographic and cultural closeness and ‘openness’ to similar economic pressures exist. In such cases, it might be postulated that convergence in HRM will occur. We argue that China, Japan and South Korea represent such a cluster. This article examines these countries, to see if a degree of convergence is taking place and if it is towards an identifiable ‘Asian’ model of HRM. A model of change is presented that distinguishes between levels of occurrence and acceptance. Details of the development and practice of HRM in each country are then set out. The article ends with a discussion and implications section and a brief conclusion.     

Ansätze und Ergebnisse anglo-amerikanischer M&A-Forschung

Based on a review of established U.S. management journals (1995–2003), six schools of thought are identified within the Anglo-American M&;A research: “Capital Market”, “Principal/Agent”, “Industrial Organization”, “Organizational Behavior”, “Human Resources” and “Strategic Management”. The literature review shows that the definition of M&;A success, the methods applied, and insights from empirical research differ according to the respective school of thought. Empirical studies focus on the resource combinations of merger partners, the specific circumstances of merger negotiations, and on integration management as antecedents of merger performance. Unfortunately, empirical findings have not yet provided reliable explanations for M&;A success. Based on the current state of Anglo-American M&;A research, the authors discuss implications for business practice, identify research gaps, and propose areas for future research.     

Introduction of New Technology with a Sound Transition of the Input-Output Structure

We examine the general equilibrium repercussions associated with the introduction of new technologies, using the generalized Leontief system that allows technological substitutions. We show that an untested introduction of cost-increasing technologies in any industry may result in creating a non-productive technological structure that does not satisfy the Hawkins-Simon condition, following the autonomous dynamic adjustment process with structural transitions in the economic system. Therefore, we propose a practicable control scheme of introducing cost-increasing technologies that strictly avoids the creation of non-productive structures in all periods of structural transition, using the available information on the ex ante technological structure.     

The Creation of the Office for National Statistics

A new Office for National Statistics was created in the United Kingdom in 1996 following a series of developments designed to strengthen the relevance and integrity of statistics. This paper describes these fundamental changes and sets out a blueprint for future progress. It also sets current developments in the United Kingdom in an historical and international context.     

What helps? Women engineers' accounts of staying on

We have considerable understanding of the obstacles that women engineers encounter and the reasons that they leave the field, but we know less about what enables them to remain. Adopting an interpretivist approach, this article examines how a group of British women engineers in two FTSE 100 companies account for “staying on” in their male‐dominated work settings. We delineate four specific forms of help that facilitate women's retention in the field. We argue that exposure to help leads to women developing a habitus that enables them to continue working in engineering. To conclude, we draw on our findings to outline HR practices that will facilitate supportive relationships in the workplace and pave the way towards developing more positive organisational climates.
