非遗也时尚

不少人说非遗是历史的东西、是历史的遗存,认为非物质文化遗产就是历史与过去、就是陈旧与保存.但笔者认为,非物质文化遗产是古老而鲜活的,正因为具有鲜活的特征,可以说它在当今社会依然是时尚的.本论文主要通过举例论证当今社会非物质文化遗产依然具有强大生命力,其相关的保护、传承等体现了非遗依然是社会的时尚,从而说明保护非物质文化遗产的重要性及社会现实意义.

Broadcasting and Sport

The broadcasting of sport is heavily regulated. Our main findingis that common trends, and differences, in the quality, quantity,and price of televised sport across Europe and USA cannot beadequately explained without reference to policy interventionsby national and supranational government, and by competitionand regulatory authorities. These interventions have a significantimpact on the organization and governance of sports, as wellas the structure of broadcasting markets and the conduct ofbroadcasting companies. Foreclosure of broadcasting marketsthrough exclusive, long-term contracts, bundling and verticalintegration, access of viewers to major sporting events, andcollective selling stand out as the most significant policyissues. We conclude by noting a number of policy implications.     

Demand for Sport

This article reviews international literature on the demandfor professional sport. The first part presents a conceptualframework for understanding the sources and determinants ofthe demand for professional sporting contests. The second partreviews empirical evidence on key determinants of attendanceat sporting events, and on other sources of demand, such asbroadcasting, sponsorship, and merchandising. The review concludesthat there is still much to be learned about demand for professionalsport, and that there are no simple lessons to be drawn fromexisting literature. But important messages do emerge from studiesof demand for attendance with regard to effects of uncertaintyof outcome, quality of contest, and quality of viewing.     

Sport as Business

There is both a popular and academic literature suggesting thatowners of sports teams do not profit maximize. The alternativeformulation entails either win or utility maximization, usuallysubject to a break-even constraint. Another line of economicanalysis holds that team owners do fundamentally profit maximizeor that profit maximization provides a useful benchmark againstwhich to assess actual performance. There has been some empiricalwork attempting to decipher the true objective function of teamowners. These results are inconclusive. Objective functions,however, remain important because they affect both owner behaviourand league performance. In practice, owners' objectives varyby team, league, and country and are strongly affected by howthe team relates to an owner's other assets. The next task formodelling the behaviour and performance of sports leagues isto take fuller account of the diversity of ownership objectiveswithin a given league.     

Sport and Gambling

We review the relationships between gambling and sport. Britishsports and sports infrastructure have benefited considerablyfrom funding through the National Lottery. We argue that thereis an implicit sports tax on lottery products and that thispolicy may be neither efficient nor equitable. We suggest thatfurther research, employing contingent valuation methodology,would be required before any firm conclusion could be made overwhether the spending facilitated by the tax represents an efficientallocation of resources. Betting on events and outcomes in sport,especially team sports, has become a high-growth sector; weexplore the potential for sports to capture some of this bettorspending and discuss associated public-policy issues. Whilesport may extract revenue from betting, there are also costs.We focus especially on betting corruption in sports, developingan expected utility framework to show where the risk of corruptionis most likely to arise and what regulatory options are opento sports governing bodies and government.     

Contest Theory and Sport

Contrary to most sports fans economists tend to view tournamentsnot only as a mechanism to identify the most able and most talentedathlete(s) but also as an instrument to increase the athletes'effort levels by designing an adequate compensation system thattakes into account the specificities of the contest under consideration.The paper proceeds in two different steps: First, it reviewsthe available evidence on sports contests and identifies somepuzzles that have not yet been resolved in the literature (theempirical separation of selection and incentive effects andthe impact of incentive pay in team settings). Second, it addressesthese puzzles and offers some new evidence supporting the basicassumptions offered by economic theory.     

Sport and Measurement of Competition

Summary  Sport is becoming an activity of increasing importance: over time more people participate in sport (active sport consumption), more time is spent watching sport (passive sport consumption). An important part of sport consumption is passive sport consumption where production and consumption are separate: (professional) athletes engage in a contest, and fans pay to watch the contest. An important characteristic of sport that generates this demand is relative competition: the competitiveness of a particular match or league. In this paper, we set out to measure competitive balance in three sports (soccer, tennis, and skating), and assess its development over time. As we separate variation in quality of teams or athletes from randomness of outcome, we can compare relative competition in these three sports. Part of this paper was written when I enjoyed the hospitality of the University of Salford. I thank David Forrest, Ian McHale, and Bertus Talsma for fruitful discussions. Bertus Talsma helped to get the skating data. All calculations and graphs were done using R (R Development Core Team 2008). An Appendix with additional tables and graphs is available on .     

一个体育瞭望者的个性

十多年前,由于给一个新闻班讲课．我结识了《济南时报》的王兴步。当时．他留给我的印象是健谈、坦诚、随和．很好相处。后来,随着了解的不断深入．又渐渐知道他是一个很有个性的资深体育记者。他每年的发稿量都在600篇以上、接近100万字,其中超过五分之一的报道反响都很大,许多还被新华社定为通稿;他也多次得到表彰、奖励。我想,这样的记者．定当有其特点值得关注。     

The Assessment: The Economics of Sport

The study of sports economics has expanded rapidly in recentyears in response to significantly increased demand–forsport itself, for economic analysis relevant to commercial litigationin sport, for lively teaching material in schools and universities,and for research into the incentive properties of sporting contests.While much of the literature has focused on the issue of competitivebalance and how to achieve it, there have still been relativelyfew studies that apply the lessons of the economic theory ofcontests to the analysis of sports. There remain huge opportunitiesboth to develop our theoretical understanding of incentive mechanismsin sport and to conduct empirical research in the operationof incentives in sporting contests.
