Housing Preferences of Temporary Migrants in Urban China in the wake of Gradual Hukou Reform: A Case Study of Shenzhen

In the wake of the recent announcement by the State Council concerning the provision of public rental housing across China, and the gradual reform of China's household registration system (hukou), this article explores how potential adjustments in government housing policies (namely access to public rental housing) influence the housing preferences of temporary migrants who are currently residing inside the chengzhongcun (urban villages) of Shenzhen. The results indicate that dissatisfaction with rental cost and living conditions in these urban villages are the key reasons for migrants wishing to move into public rental housing if it is offered to them — and not the fact that they are treated differently within the hukou system. Public rental housing is welcomed in particular by newly arriving migrants who live outside the Shenzhen Special Economic Zone (SEZ), and migrants who have decided to remain in Shenzhen for the foreseeable future. By contrast, dissatisfaction with urban villages is the sole contributor to housing preferences for those residing inside the SEZ.

Cost-effectiveness of foreign aid programs in the baltics

After the upheavals in Central and Eastern Europe in the late 1980s and early 1990s, the Western world has given considerable aid to the fledgling democracies. In this paper we draw a summary from Baltic experience in the fields of educational programs, scientific and environmental programs, and commercial projects in banking, taxation, and energy. We analyze the motivation and identify different possible effects of foreign aid. We signal possible inefficiencies arising from the lack of coordination of foreign aid, deal with possible waste as being a form of loss in cost-effectiveness, and address the policies followed by aid-providing agencies. Finally, we suggest ways that can help to achieve cost-effectiveness by assisting the donor and recipient in maximizing benefits gained and possibly reducing costs.     

Capitalization of Costs and Expected Earnings Growth

Abstract

This paper offers a model that shows how the capitalization of costs affects contemporaneous earnings and the growth path of expected earnings. It makes three points. First, reported earnings under successful efforts are more price relevant than earnings under full costing or full expensing. Second, whether conditional or unconditional, conservatism always enhances the growth rate of expected earnings. Third, independent of capitalization policy, the long-run expected earnings growth rate converges either to the long-run expected free cash flow growth rate or to the depreciation rate. Therefore, while capitalization policy affects the price relevance of earnings and short-run expected earnings growth, it does not affect long-run expected earnings growth.     

In Search of ‘Successful’ Accounting Research

This critical commentary on Ohlson's paper (in this issue) problematises the concept of ‘successful’ accounting research; highlighting its ex-post, variable nature as a socially manufactured object. Contrasting Ohlson's notion of a singular body of shared ‘common knowledge’ in accounting with the plurality of knowledges valued by different research communities, the commentary advocates a deliberate courting of heterogeneous research paradigms so as to stimulate insightful scholarship. The commentary also reflects on systemic trends underlying the growth of research measurement programmes, and points out that the quest for ‘successful’ research could perversely undermine the generation of memorable and innovative research. Finally, individual researchers are encouraged at each career stage to determine for themselves the intended results to which they aspire, conscious that there are multiple notions of ‘successful’ research and therefore multiple routes to success.

蒙脱石散剂治疗小儿腹泻的临床疗效

目的探讨蒙脱石散剂治疗小儿腹泻的临床疗效。方法选取住院治疗的腹泻患儿86例,随机均分为对照组与观察组,各43例。对照组患儿给予抗病毒、抗炎治疗、液体疗法及对症治疗等常规治疗;观察组患儿在常规治疗的基础上给予口服蒙脱石散剂治疗。比较两组患儿的临床疗效及胃肠道不良反应发生情况。结果治疗72 h后,观察组患儿的治疗总有效率为95.3%,1例(2.3%)发生胃肠道不良反应;对照组患儿的治疗总有效率为81.4%,7例(16.3%)发生胃肠道不良反应;观察组明显优于对照组,差异均有统计学意义(均P<0.05)。结论给予患儿口服蒙脱石散剂治疗儿科腹泻可加强常规治疗的临床治疗效果,同时减少胃肠道不良反应的发生。

石家庄市冬季典型重污染过程分析

为研究石家庄市冬季重污染天气过程的成因及影响因素,对2015-01-07至2015-01-10这一时间段的重污染过程从PM2.5浓度变化、气象条件演变及其对PM2.5浓度的影响、PM2.5与主要气态污染物的相关性、区域性污染传输等方面进行分析。结果表明:此次石家庄市重污染过程是在区域性大气静稳态背景下形成的,地面压力及风场对PM2.5浓度影响较大;石家庄NO2浓度与PM2.5浓度相关性很高,机动车尾气对城市的污染逐渐加剧;SO2浓度与PM2.5浓度相关性高说明燃煤仍是石家庄市重要污染来源;该时间段河北南部城市区间存在污染物区域性传输。
