管理者在塑造高绩效的员工中的职责

管理者常常会认为员工工作良好。当然会有一两名员工表现不够好，但是员工总体上表现优良。工作差的员工在组织中待不久，因为管理者会在他们影响其他员工之前，迅速让他们离开组织。留在组织中的员工为了应得的薪水而付出相应的努力。他们可靠而有见识，值得信赖，而且没有怨言地进行工作，但是他们的业绩是否超出管理者的期望了呢？事实并非如此。

Who Gains from the Demographic Dividend? Forecasting Income by Age

Changes in the population age structure are known to influence the total income per person, but little is known about whether the changes are equally shared across the population or are concentrated on particular age groups and/or birth cohorts. The answer to this question has potentially important implications for income inequality, human capital investment, and fertility decision-making. We propose a new model of intergenerational transfers which distinguishes between the effects of changes in population structure and the effects of changes in family age structure. Using age-specific data from annual income and expenditure surveys of Taiwan between 1978 and 1998, we show that changes in age structure have had a very favorable effect on Taiwan's income growth. The gains are not equally shared by all age groups, however. Children and young adults have benefited the most, while the elderly have benefited the least. The population and family age structures have independent effects on per capita income; the effect of the population age structure is most important. Generational differences in per capita income are closely related to intergenerational differences in earnings, suggesting only a weak form of altruism. Finally, we predict that, on average, population aging will adversely influence the per capita income growth in Taiwan in the coming decades.     

Headship rates and the household formation process in Great Britain

"This paper looks at the changes in headship rates in Great Britain over the period 1960-1979, and attempts to explain them in terms of economic variables, such as real income and the real cost of housing. Such variables are found to be significant for some household types, but not for others. Notably, young single person household formation appears to be more supply constrained and to respond to appropriate supply variables." Furthermore, "some comparisons are made with similar studies done on similar data from the USA and France. These studies reveal a number of features in common, but also some differences, and these are commented upon."     

Waves of migration: a new situation

An attempt is made to forecast migration trends affecting those countries that were formerly part of the Soviet Union. "The new migratory trends are characterized by at least three fundamentally important elements: the ouster of the newly arrived population from the social niche that it had recently occupied, emigration from overpopulated regions, and growing emigration beyond the borders of the former Union."     

劳动二重性学说与实物量关系体系——关于新李嘉图主义的一个批判性研究

本文认为劳动二重性学说是理解马克思主义经济学的钥匙，也是识别科学的马克思主义经济学和其他形形色色的非马克思主义经济学和各种庸俗经济学的照妖镜。同时，劳动二重性学说也仍然是分析全球化条件下的资本主义经济关系的钥匙。     

一体化物流系统对电子商务和企业资源规划系统的影响

供应链观念的发展要求物流组织内外并重地改善信息的流动。在许多公司里，信息量增长的需求促进了物流信息系统(LIS)和供应链信息系统的一体化进程。在不久的将来，电子商务、企业资源规划和其他物流信息系统的工具和技术愈来愈多的应用将会决定商业流程的发展方向。公司在做出决定支持自己的供应链系统时应该明白自己的选择及其带来的影响。
