Fiscal consolidation in Germany

The German federal government’s fiscal consolidation package, announced in June, is designed to permanently reduce the federal deficit to a new target level. This article uses a three-region version of the European Commission’s QUEST model to gauge the impact of the package on Germany and the spillover to the rest of the euro area and the rest of the world.     

Hear nothing,do nothing: The role of word of mouth in the decision-making of older consumers

Abstract

In some product categories, older consumers (aged 65+) tend to be more brand loyal, have smaller consideration sets and defer purchase more than younger consumers. This conservative behaviour may arise, in part, because older people are more socially isolated and thus receive less social influence relating to product options. In this multi-study research, the volume of word of mouth (WOM) is used as an indicator of social influence. The WOM received by men and women falls substantially beyond age 65, indicating that a deficit in advice may be part of the explanation for conservative decision-making. To test this proposition, the duration of customer tenure of the current brand (how long the respondent has been a customer) is used as a measure of purchase deferral and, as predicted, tenure is longer when less WOM is received. This evidence indicates that some older consumers experience a degree of social isolation, which affects their decision-making. In marketing and social policy, there is a need to promote procedures, technologies and institutions that help older people to connect with others.

高耗能产业循环经济的指标体系构建

高耗能产业是循环经济建设的重点领域,但在循环经济指标体系方面还有待于系统和深入的研究。从综合绩效（经济绩效、环境绩效和社会绩效）的角度建立高耗能产业的循环经济指标体系是一个新的视角,具有层次分明、结构紧凑、可操作性强的优势。本文构建了高耗能循环经济的指标体系,并进行了实证分析。     

On length biased dynamic measure of past inaccuracy

In the present communication we introduce a length biased past inaccuracy measure between two past lifetime distributions over the interval (0, t). Based on proportional reversed hazard model characterization problem for the length biased inaccuracy measure has been studied. An upper bound to the weighted past inaccuracy measure has also been derived, which reduces to the upper bound obtained in case of weighted past entropy.     

国际调停发生的讨价还价模型:一种定量检验

国际冲突是否经历调停是由调停的供给方(即调停者)和需求方(即争端方)共同决定的。与既有大多数研究强调影响调停发生的"深层原因"不同,作者借鉴理性主义解释视角,着重关注影响调停发生的"即时原因",即将调停的发生视为需求方讨价还价成功的结果。根据理性主义的解释,影响需求方讨价还价结果的主要障碍有私有信息(包括故意误传私有信息)、承诺问题和议题不可分割性三种,而第三方调停者的干预可以帮助需求方克服这三种障碍,从而增加调停发生的可能性。作者使用"国际危机行为"和"国际冲突管理"两个数据库数据,运用统计方法检验了调停发生的讨价还价模型。统计结果表明,当影响需求方之间讨价还价结果的三种问题得到有效管理时,国际冲突更容易经历调停。     

关于石油企业税费问题的几点思考

在社会主义市场经济条件下,石油企业负有依法纳税的义务,同时还要不断提高经营效益,维护投资者的利益。文章围绕石油税收政策体系的建设问题,重点讨论了石油税费政策与石油价格变化的关系、税费水平与资源禀赋和油品品质的关系、石油税费与节能环保的关系以及如何依据石油工业发展和石油市场变化情况及时调整石油税收政策。通过分析现行税制在实践中的作用与效果,探讨了税制改革对石油石化产业发展的影响,并提出对策和建议。     

当前我国征地制度存在的主要问题及对策建议

土地问题是农村问题的核心。土地制度是农村的基础制度,而征地制度又是农村土地制度的重要方面。随着工业化、城市化进程的加快,建设用地需求很大,将不可避免地继续征收大量农村土地。根据《全国土地利用总体规划纲要》（2006-2020）,1997-2005年,全国非农建设年均占用耕地20．35万公顷（305万亩）,到201O年和2020年,全国新增建设用地分别为195万公顷（2925万亩）和585万公顷（8775万亩）,我国将有大量农民离开土地。
