基于CES模型的黑龙江省产业集聚效应分析

理论界普遍认为产业集聚在促进区域经济的发展中起着非常重要的作用。不变替代弹性生产函数通过对某一地区利润总额、工业总产值、固定资产净值等指标的回归分析,测算该地区的集聚经济效应。本文利用该函数对黑龙江省的产业集聚效应进行测算,发现黑龙江的这三个要素的呈现负值,表明黑龙江省在产业集聚中却出现了规模不经济现象,产业集聚的效果不是十分理想。     

产业集聚与区域竞争优势探讨

在开放的全球市场上,来自于地区的优势重新受到人们的关注。这一优势不是外生的自然禀赋,而是在竞争与合作中形成的内生的竞争优势。产业集聚能够带来行业的规模经济,有助于本区域产业获取竞争优势。集聚效应的产生,又受制于企业间竞争与合作关系、区域文化、企业文化及组织制度等方面的因素。

Inferring competitive market structure based on a model of interpurchase intervals

Market structure analysis approaches that use brand switching data at the household level have to contend with the issues of heterogeneous individual preferences and multiple usage occasions. This paper presents a technique to structure markets based on a model of interpurchase time that deals with these issues. A parameter of this model measures the substitutability for a pair of brands. The matrix of such measures for all pairs is analyzed to identify the market structure. The method is empirically applied to structuring the coffee market. Various tests are conducted to establish the robustness and validity of our approach.     

Examining the influence of different levels of sexual-stimuli intensity by gender on advertising effectiveness

Abstract

Sexual appeals grab attention and elicit emotional responses, yet the existing literature surrounding this area of research has yielded inconsistent findings with regard to their ability to influence consumer liking and preference. Little attention has also been given to investigating sexual appeals beyond the scope of the effects of gratuitous sexual stimuli (nudity), and as such, most of what is known about sexual appeal advertising is centred on the effects of nudity alone. The current study examines sexual-stimuli intensity (explicit vs. mild) in print advertising and assesses its influence on advertising effectiveness and how this varies by gender for Australian consumers. An experiment is conducted as a test of the hypothesised relationships, with findings indicating that the level of sexual-stimuli intensity in print advertising is more effective in influencing consumers’ attitudinal and behavioural responses when depicted at a mild intensity level than at an explicit intensity level. These findings offer important insights for marketers in the design and configuration of sexual appeals used in advertising to maximise the effectiveness of ads to achieve favourable consumer behaviour outcomes.     

(Optimal) spatial aggregation in the determinants of industrial location

Empirical studies on the determinants of industrial location typically use variables measured at the available administrative level (municipalities, counties etc.). However, this amounts to assuming that the effects that these determinants may have on the location process do not extend beyond the geographical limits of the selected site. We address the validity of this assumption by comparing results from standard count data models with those obtained by calculating the geographical scope of the spatially varying explanatory variables using a wide range of distances and alternative spatial autocorrelation measures. Our results reject the usual practice of using administrative records as covariates without making some kind of spatial correction.     

Discerning competitive strategy through an assessment of competitive methods

This cross-sectional study of Portuguese service organizations seeks to determine the level of alignment of competitive methods with strategy typologies covered in the business literature. Surveyed firms were asked to indicate their level of utilization of several competitive methods. The results of factor analysis of the survey data indicate that 30 of the 33 competitive methods covered in this study represent seven underlying strategy dimensions. Further analysis revealed that there is some congruence between the derived strategy dimensions and established strategy typologies in the literature. Cluster analysis revealed that each of the responding firms could be classified into one of four hybrid or mixed strategy orientations. However, differences in strategy orientation were not statistically significant in explaining differences in the financial performance of these organizations. These findings are discussed in the light of their implications for strategy development, strategy choices and performance evaluation in the Portuguese service sector.     

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.     

In the company of spies: When competitive intelligence gathering becomes industrial espionage

At what point does legitimate competitive intelligence gathering cross the line into industrial espionage, and what is it about certain intelligence gathering practices that makes them open to criticism? In order to shed light on current developments in the competitive intelligence gathering ‘industry’ and the ethical issues that are typically raised, this paper looks at three recent cases of industrial espionage, involving major multinationals, such as Procter & Gamble, Unilever, Canal Plus, and Ericsson. The argument is made that, from an ethical point of view, industrial espionage can be assessed according to three main considerations: the tactics used in the acquisition of information, the privacy of the information concerned, and the consequences for the public interest as a result of the deployment of the information by the intelligence gatherer.     

论企业竞争力——基于企业文化的视角

在日益激烈的市场竞争中,企业的生存与发展不仅受到其科技力、经济力等“硬性竞争力”的影响,企业的“软性竞争力”——企业文化,更因其独特的功能对企业的经营发挥着巨大的作用,成为最核心的竞争力。企业文化竞争力的构建思路应从理念、制度、战略等方面考虑,创建的进程应从内在到外在,从短期到长远,从微观到宏观循序渐进,再将各种相关方案的实施落到实处,确保文化竞争发挥实质性的效用。     

Value co-creation in industrial cities: a strategic source of competitive advantages

This study proposed and tested comprehensive value co-creation activities and assessed its impact on creating value and building competitive advantages with the aim of developing a comprehensive framework for value co-creation process. Specifically, the study developed, and empirically tested, Prahalad’s and Gebauer’s et al. five activities of co-creation and explored the relationship between the new comprehensive value co-creation activities, co-creation value and competitive advantages in industrial cities. A structural equation modelling is employed to test the hypothesised relations. The data used were collected from 221 Egyptian manufacturing firms across different industries. Findings suggested the presence of a positive relationship between the activities of value co-creation (namely: partner engagement, co-reflection and co-recovery) and co-creation of value. Interesting findings revealed that self-service and co-design were not found to have an impact on co-creation of value. In addition, co-creation value positively impacts competitive advantages. This study provides guidelines for management practices within firms seeking to develop their capabilities and deliver superior value.
