Marx's critique of “eternal” political economy: how Mill is alien to Marx's attacks

Marx deplored political economy's claims to establish “eternal” – or “natural” – laws. This paper seeks to defend John Stuart Mill from his critique. It argues that, contrary to what Marx alleged, these two economists have a great deal more in common on this topic than is frequently realised. Both on the theoretical level and on the political one, Mill's views about the relativity of capitalism seem very close to Marx's. This paper also suggests that Marx may have ignored Mill's insistence on the relativity of economic theories because it may have challenged his own “scientific socialism”.

河北省农村经济增长的消费因素影响及对策研究

当社会经济发展的主要矛盾从供给约束向需求约束转变，经济增长的主要支撑因素从供给扩张向需求拉动转变时，扩大需求成为必要。农村居民的消费水平是影响农村经济增长的重要因素，本文在介绍河北省农村居民的消费现状基础上，分析制约农村居民消费水平的因素，追而提出发展河北省农村消费市场，促进农村经济增长的对策。     

公路边坡地质的分类问题探讨

对于公路边坡分类,大多是按分类原则就边坡的破坏形式进行分类,对于未变形边坡则很少进行分类。本文在总结公路工程边坡勘察成果的基础上,提出了适合公路工程的边坡工程地质分类,并将未变形边坡统分为岩质边坡、土质边坡和土石边坡,对岩质边坡按边坡体岩性和结构进行了细致分类,而对变形边坡则按其变形特征进行简要分类。     

强化企业会计监督工作是保证经济健康发展的关键

我国经济体制经过了30余年的深刻变革,完成了由计划经济向市场经济转轨,多种经济成分并存已经成为我国社会主义基本经济制度。一方面非公有制经济形式在社会主义经济建设中起着举足轻重的作用,而另一方面非公有制经济形式在经济活动中也带来了负面影响。经济体制的转轨更是带来一些深层次矛盾的凸显。为此。强化企业会计监督工作（尤其非公有制经济）就成为了保证我国经济健康发展的关键。     

人民币汇率管理技术研究

新的人民币汇率形成机制对汇率管理提出了更高的技术要求。人民于汇率管理技术作为一种重要的生产力,为人民币汇率管理提供了重要的操作技巧和技术支持。创新和发展人民币汇率管理技术,有利于进一步提高人民币汇率管理效率和外汇资源配置效率。人民币汇率管理技术的变近大致经历了萌芽阶段、起步阶段、徘徊阶段和快速发展4个时期;人民币汇率管理技术的创新内容包括人民币汇率机制管理技术、弹性管理技术、风险管理技术和信息管理技术等;人民币汇率管理技术的未来发展方向应由“原始型、初级型、封闭型、粗放型、僵化型”向“现代型、市场型、开放型、集约型、创新型”转变。同时,针对人民币汇率管理技术发展中的制约因素,还要注意发展策略的选择,如培育有效的外汇专场主体．加强汇率基础设施建设,营造汇率生态环境,培养金融技术人才等。     

适度富余——企业人力资源供求管理的目标选择

无论是理论工作者还是企业实际管理者,都将供求平衡作为企业人力资源供求管理的目标.可事实上企业人力资源供求具有不平衡性.一方面,企业人力资源供求始终处于变动之中,要实现供求平衡存在许多不可消除的客观障碍;另一方面,在内外劳动力市场并不充分有效的条件下,实现供求平衡所需付出的成本远远高于保持人力资源适度富余所带来的损失.因此,企业人力资源供求管理的目标应当是适度富余,而不是供求平衡.     

COOPERATION: THE POWER OF A SINGLE WORD? SOME EXPERIMENTAL EVIDENCE ON WORDING AND GENDER EFFECTS IN A GAME OF CHICKEN

Framing has been widely shown to affect decision making. In this paper, we investigate experimentally whether, and to what extent, cooperative behaviour in a Game of Chicken may be impacted by a very basic change in the labelling of the strategies. Our within‐subject experimental design involves two treatments. The only difference between them is that we introduce either a socially‐oriented wording (I cooperate/I do not cooperate) or colours (red/blue) to designate strategies. The level of cooperation appears to be higher in the socially‐oriented context, but only when uncertainty as regards the type of the partner is manipulated, and especially among females.     

马克思剩余价值理论视角下信息商品增值研究

信息劳动创造价值,如何在马克思剩余价值理论视角下研究信息商品增值是一个新的研究课题。信息劳动是复杂劳动,创建期投入巨大,一些信息商品具有独特形式。将信息生产的不同时期的区分引入复杂的劳动过程和价值增殖的研究：信息商品创建期和扩大生产期都属于生产过程,在生产中获得价值增殖的潜力,而通过流通过程,创造出巨大数量的消费受众,从而实现了剩余价值的获得。巨大的规模投资、极高的技术门槛和政府政策保护使信息企业获得超额剩余价值。     

Herding behaviour and the declining value relevance of accounting information: evidence from an emerging stock market

This article sheds light on the underlying mechanisms behind the changes in the value relevance of accounting information in the Karachi Stock Exchange (KSE) during the 1999–2010 period. We find that neither changes in earnings quality nor the earnings lack of timeliness hypothesis can explain the decline in the value relevance of accounting information in the KSE. Based on the stylized facts associated with the growth of the KSE and the broader economics literature, we argue that the reduction in the explanatory power of accounting information vis-à-vis stock returns was caused by herding behaviour. Empirical estimates from state-space model of herding behaviour confirm the existence of herding, and we find that the value relevance of accounting information is significantly lower in periods characterized by herding behaviour. This article is also amongst the first attempts to empirically demonstrate that an expansionary monetary policy and increases in foreign portfolio investment lead to increased levels of herding.
