地方政府公信力：影响区域经济发展的重要因素

作为一种区域软实力,地方政府公信力是影响区域经济发展的一个重要因素。良好的政府公信力能够为区域经济发展营造公平的市场竞争秩序、促进区域内社会稳定发展以及塑造良好的区域形象。而目前我国一些地方政府公信力存在下降的趋势,在严重影响社会信用环境及地方投资环境的同时,也妨碍了政府与公众之间良好的互动关系的建构,增加了政府管理成本,制约着地方经济的发展。因此,有必要提高政府公信力,为区域经济发展营造一个良好的诚信环境     

Diffusion of mobile telephony: An empirical study in Taiwan

Mobile telephony penetration is a major indicator of mobile telephony diffusion. Taiwan had a mobile telephony penetration of 108% in 2002, ranking first in the world. This study analyzes this accelerated diffusion in terms of growth model and determinants of the diffusion rate. To eliminate the inherent uncertainty associated with choosing the optimal growth model, this study compares the performance of three conventional models, namely Gompertz, Logistic and Bass, to identify the most appropriate model, and to distinguish the forces driving the diffusion rate. Empirical results indicate that the most appropriate model is the Logistic model. Network externalities, which this study shows to be the same as the imitation effect in the Bass model, explain the superiority of the Logistic model. Moreover, market competition, which markedly reduces service prices, is identified as a primary driver of the diffusion rate of mobile telephony in Taiwan. Economic conditions, technological innovation and number of operators are insignificant factors. Finally, mobile telephony is a substitute for fixed-line telephony in Taiwan.     

Does imitation reduce the liability of foreignness? Linking distance,isomorphism, and performance

Research summary : Research demonstrates that foreign firms from institutionally distant countries imitate the practices of domestic firms (i.e., adopt an isomorphism strategy). The conjecture has been that pursuing such a strategy can help foreign firms counteract the deleterious performance consequences associated with institutional distance; yet there is scant evidence of such. This study treats isomorphism as an endogenously selected strategy influenced by institutional distance to examine its performance consequences. Using a dataset of 80 foreign banks from 25 countries operating in the United States, we find that foreign firms from institutionally distant home countries benefit initially from selecting an isomorphism strategy. However, the benefits diminish with experience. Managerial summary : Multinational companies experience great difficulty in managing institutional distance, and research suggests that one way to overcome distance‐related constraints is to imitate the strategies of local companies. Unfortunately, we do not know enough about the performance‐related consequences of engaging in such imitative behavior. This study examines whether imitating local firms improves performance for multinational companies from institutionally distant markets. We find that imitation improves a firm's performance at first; however, with experience those same strategies result in performance decrements. Managers of multinationals should therefore be careful not to get locked into imitative strategies that provide performance benefits upon entry, but that fail to provide benefits over time.

剔除食品和能源的核心通货膨胀度量方法

文章以2000年1月至2015年5月月度同比CPI分类价格指数时间序列数据为基础建立协整关系和 共特征向量检验。实证分析表明我国CPI分类指数时间序列之间长期存在共同趋势,短期存 在共同周期。因此,在我国使用剔除食品和能源的核心通货膨胀测算方法是不合理的。本文 进一步提出我国中央银行在制定货币政策时,应同时关注官方公布的核心通货膨胀和通货膨 胀,以免使货币政策对食品和能源价格上涨反应不足或反应过度,以及提出我国核心通货膨 胀的测算还应关注CPI结构的建议。

基于生命周期的智力资本对企业创新能力的影响研究

进入知识经济时代后,智力资本成为提高企业创新能力的关键要素。本文以2014年上市制造业企业作为研究对象,分析智力资本与企业创新能力的关系。研究发现,不同的生命周期中,人力资本、结构资本和关系资本对企业创新能力的影响程度不同。其中在成长期时,人力资本和结构资本对企业创新能力影响较大。在成熟期时,人力资本、结构资本和关系资本都正向显著影响企业创新能力。在衰退期时,人力资本和关系资本对企业创新能力影响较大。研究结果可以为上市制造业企业有效实施智力资本的积累,进一步实现企业创新提供借鉴。
