励志创新领风气之先--合肥高新区二次创业进行曲

“引领风气之先”的气魄一直沉淀在合肥人的骨子里。1993年，合肥掀起“万燕”的红盖头，世界第一台家用VCD诞生了。历史上，合肥拥有不少第一：生产出中国第一台空调，研制出中国第一台微型计算机，建成中国第一个同步辐射实验室……他们在各自的产业领域均引发出革命性的效应，然而合肥却没能借此东风扶摇直上，赚个钵满盆溢，那些本应成为合肥高新技术的龙头企业先后转投他乡，在外省发扬光大。一场轰轰烈烈的科技造富运动，让合肥感受到切肤之痛：作为造富运动的发起人，合肥多次扮演了“替他人做嫁衣”的角色，没能为自身带来明显的经济效益。合肥是全国屈指可数的科技城市，如何抢抓机遇、乘势而上、奋力崛起，是合肥人现在最关注的话题。随着东部沿海地区的产业向中西部梯度转移，机遇之门再一次向合肥透出一条缝隙——长三角经济快速发展的同时，土地和能源稀缺的矛盾也日益突出，越来越多的企业将目光内移至华东经济板块的腹地，产业梯度转移规律与安徽省“东向战略”的经济发展思路不谋而合。2004年11月12日，科技部正式下文：同意合肥建设国家科技创新型试点城市实施方案，“合肥科学城”隆重地从幕后走到了台前。首个国家科技创新型试点城市——合肥，正在开垦一块自主创新的试验田。为使机遇不至于再次掠合肥而过，作为第一个科技创新试点城市的领头羊——合肥高新区，在这场对接长三角经济发展的战役中，当仁不让地站到了风口浪尖，创新成了这里的最强音。[编者按]     

以战略研究服务光荣使命

战略研究是对全局性、长期性、基本性、前瞻性问题的思考和谋划。国家高新区战略研究的首要目的，借用中国科技大学陈晓剑的话说，就是在证明“高新区存在性定理”，即“为什么要建设国家高新区？”国家高新区存在的价值何在？如何把握时代的变化保持和实现这种价值？这正是国家高新区战略研究的责任和使命所在。

大力发展IT产业打造转型升级新引擎——贵阳国家高新区汇聚创新资源发展IT产业纪实

2013年1月18日，《福布斯》中文版在上海发布2013年度首份榜单——《中国潜力企业榜》，在“最具潜力上市企业”榜单中，贵阳高新区朗玛信息技术股份有限公司在上市不到一年的时间内，荣居排行榜第二位，成为贵州省惟一的一家上榜百强的企业。一旦把贵州和软件连在一起，许多人便会发出疑问：贵州也有软件开发企业？贵州企业开发的软件能行吗？有问，必有答，奇迹就在答案里：贵州朗玛信息、贵州黔程天力、贵州京安丹灵科技、贵阳世纪恒通科技等一大批信息产业在贵阳高新区如雨后春笋般在高新区诞生，一大批高端的IT技术和企业从这里走出。     

Modeling and predicting the development of the CES of Russia,Belarus, Kazakhstan,and Ukraine

The paper describes new approaches to the prediction of integration processes in the post-Soviet space and to the macroeconomic evaluation of the integration effect with the use of a cross-country model of structural interactions.     

Health,height, and the household at the turn of the twentieth century

This article examines the health and height of men born in England and Wales in the 1890s who enlisted in the army at the time of the First World War, using a sample of recruits from the army service records. These are linked to their childhood circumstances as observed in the 1901 census. Econometric results indicate that height on enlistment was positively related to socio‐economic class, and negatively to the number of children in the household in 1901 and the proportion of household members who were earners, as well as to the degree of crowding. Adding the characteristics of the locality has little effect on the household‐level effects. However local conditions were important; in particular the industrial character of the district, local housing conditions, and the female illiteracy rate. These are interpreted as representing the negative effect on height of the local disease environment. The results suggest that changing conditions at both household and locality levels contributed to the increase in height and health in the following decades.     

Coercion, compliance, and the collapse of the Soviet command economy

Are command systems that rest on coercion inherently unstable, and did the Soviet economy collapse for this reason? Until it collapsed, the Soviet economy did not appear unstable. Why, then, did it collapse? A game between a dictator and a producer shows that a high level of coercion may yield a stable high–output equilibrium, that stability may rest in part on the dictator's reputation, and that a collapse may be brought about by adverse trends in the dictator's costs and a loss of reputation. The facts of the Soviet case are consistent with a collapse that was triggered by the strike movement of 1989.     

Safeguards, China, and the Price of Steel

The economic health of the US steel industry has fluctuated enormously over the last ten years. The implementation of steel safeguard tariffs in 2002 brought intense scrutiny by academics and industry observers, but little empirical work has focused on the factors that led to the industry’s dramatic reversal of fortune in the period that followed. We use a panel data set of product-level monthly price observations between 1997 and March 2005 to test the importance of the safeguards compared to other possible determinants. We find little evidence that the safeguards affected steel prices in the United States. Instead, results indicate that declining production capacity, improved macroeconomic conditions, and a falling dollar helped return prices to healthier levels. Finally, China’s demand for imported steel, which has not been included in previous empirical studies on the US steel industry, also appears to impact prices, but only after a lag of more than six months.

Experience,Tenure, and the Perceptions of Employers

This paper examines how group-based assessments concerning employee ability impact employee compensation. The employer learns about worker ability through Bayesian updating, creating an additional channel for wage growth that is not available to those workers with only general labor market experience. Consistent with the model's predictions, results from National Longitudinal Survey of Youth (NLSY) indicate that black workers fare much better relative to white workers in returns to tenure than in returns to experience. Finally, parameter estimates in the structural model suggest that employers initially undervalue black males but that their wages rise with learning by employers over time.     

Regulation, competition, and the structure of prices

Many competition policy issues in regulated industries concernthe structure of prices charged by multi-product firms - forexample price discrimination, non-linear pricing, cross-subsidies,and network access pricing. This article first sets out the(Ramsey) principles of optimal pricing to recover fixed costs.The sometimes conflicting aims of promoting competition andpursuing social objectives are brought into the analysis. Questionsof whether to allow pricing structure discretion to the firm,and how much, are considered next. With asymmetric information,some discretion is often desirable, but its optimal form ishard to characterize. The article then turns to the controversialnetwork access pricing problem - on what terms should an integrateddominant firm be required to supply inputs required by its rivals?Finally, there is discussion of pricing structure regulationin the transition from more to less regulation, which, it isto be hoped, is in prospect in parts of the regulated industriesas effective competition develops.     

Estimating the determinants of supply of computing, problem-solving, communication, social, and teamworking skills

We investigate the sources of supply of several core skills,using an innovative approach to skills measurement that involvesadapting a job analysis methodology and applying it in a surveycontext. We then estimate the determinants of skills supplyusing a production function model. The main findings are: (i)prior education and work experience have generally positivebut diminishing marginal impacts on skills, consistent withthe earnings function literature; (ii) off-the-job trainingis productive of most types of skill, while on-the-job trainingis effective for the generation of problem-solving and team-workingskills. Both types of training are transferable from previousemployers; (iii) more education enhances the development ofcomputing skills at work, but with respect to other core skills,less educated workers make up for their lower education throughmore work-based learning; (iv) there is a strong associationbetween the presence of some new or flexible organisation characteristicsand both the level and growth of all types of skills. We argueoverall that the contribution of work-based learning to skillsdevelopment is more important than normally allowed for in theskills policy discourse.
