剩余索取权、剩余控制权与公有水务公司管理--一种解决农村集中供水的新模式

在迈向全面建设小康社会的道路上,农村社会经济的发展应当与城市享有同等地位,农村饮水安全也成为发展过程中迫切需要解决的问题。为了选择适合我国国情的公有水务公司模式,激励公有水务公司发展,对比了当今世界现存的主要供水管理模式,探讨了最优委托权与成员相对重要性的关系,并根据具体情况分析最优委托权的大小,最后尝试探讨最优委托权中剩余索取权与剩余控制权之间的分配机制,为相关管理部门更好地服务农村居民提供参考和借鉴。     

分税财政体制下的地方税体系健全探究

1994年税制改革并实行分税财政体制后建立起了现行地方税体系。随着我国经济体制改革的深入和经济建设的迅速发展,地方税体系在税权划分、税种设置及税收征管方面存在的问题日益显露。针对这些问题,在总结国外地方税体系建设经验基础上,结合我国的实际情况,提出相应健全措施。     

Second-party and third-party punishment in a public goods experiment

We experimentally investigate whether third-party punishment is more effective than second-party punishment to increase public goods contribution. In our experiment, third parties first played the standard public goods game and then made punishment decisions as independent bystanders. We find that third parties punished more frequently, severely and less antisocially, resulting in a higher contribution level than that driven by second-party punishment. The third party’s exaggerated emotion towards free riders is proposed to explain their superior punishment effectiveness.     

Regional and gender differentials in the persistence of unemployment in Europe

The persistence of unemployment increased during the recent great recession in many European countries, although with diversified impacts. We therefore analyse such impacts in four European countries – Italy, Spain, France and the UK – which represent different institutional frameworks and may reflect the so-called continental European and Anglo-Saxon frameworks. We analyse the determinants of unemployment persistence using individual-level data from the European Union Statistics on Income and Living Conditions (EU-SILC) panel for the period 2007–2013. These data enable us to take into account initial conditions and state dependence in addition to individual and household characteristics. We focus on gender and regional effects, which have a strong impact on the persistence in the state of unemployment. We find that gender gap is significant in Italy and the UK, implying that male workers show a higher probability of remaining unemployed. In Italy, such a pattern is due to the worsening of male workers’ conditions during the crisis, whereas in the UK, male workers show higher unemployment rates than women. Regional effects are significant in all countries analysed and underline a relevant structural factor that should be addressed on policy grounds in Europe. Such effects are greater in Spain and Italy.     

Linking corporate strategy to capital structure: diversification strategy,type and source of financing

This study examines the relationship between corporate strategy and capital structure, specifically the diversfication and financing strategies of a firm. The results show that equity financing is preferred for related diversification and unrelated diversification is associated with debt financing. Additionally, firms diversifying through acquisitions are more likely to use public sources of financing and those emphasizing internal development of new businesses depend primarily on private sources of financing. Using simultaneous equation estimation, we found a reciprocal relationship between a firm's financial strategy and its corporate diversification strategy. Mode and nature of diversification are also reciprocally interrelated. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.     

Local influence analysis for Poisson autoregression with an application to stock transaction data

In statistical diagnostics and sensitivity analysis, the local influence method plays an important role and has certain advantages over other methods in several situations. In this paper, we use this method to study time series of count data when employing a Poisson autoregressive model. We consider case‐weights, scale, data, and additive perturbation schemes to obtain their corresponding vectors and matrices of derivatives for the measures of slope and normal curvatures. Based on the curvature diagnostics, we take a stepwise local influence approach to deal with data with possible masking effects. Finally, our established results are illustrated to be effective by analyzing a stock transactions data set.     

关于可持续发展理论与实践的若干思考

可持续发展理论与实践的深入有赖于在四个方面的重新认识：首先，可持续发展是观念性、战略性实践性的统一；其次，可持续发展是层次性与阶段性的统一；第三，可持续发展是区域性与综合性的统一；最后， 制度变革与创新是影响可持续发展的关键因素。     

Access prices,unbundling and product variety in European Internet markets

A fundamental policy in European broadband regulation is unbundled access to the local loop of the incumbent telephone company. We present comparative static results that show as the access price decreases, the retail price decreases, the variety of plans offered by Internet service providers increases and the quantity of each variety increases when a threshold condition is met. Using data from 18 European countries from 2006 to 2012, we find empirical support for these results when Internet product variety is measured by variation in download speeds.     

对县级公共财政运行体系的思考

在市场经济条件下,县级公共财政运行体系的建立,对增强县级财政的管理和运行效能意义重大。县级政府如何使财政管理与现实经济建设和各项社会事业发展相适应,以发挥财政管理的最大效能,推动和谐、文明社会建设,是需要认真探讨的。     

财政支农、农业现代化与山西农业发展

采用协整与误差修正模型对改革开放以来财政支农支出、农业现代化程度与山西农业发展的关系进行了实证分析。研究表明：山西农业发展水平、财政支农支出和农业现代化程度两两之间存在协整关系,误差修正模型显示短期因素对山西农业发展与农业现代化的长期均衡关系、农业现代化与财政支农的长期均衡关系具有很强的调节作用;格兰杰因果检验表明,财政支农在长期会对农业的现代化程度产生影响,而农业现代化则促进了山西农业发展水平的提高,农业的发展也会对财政支农支出产生影响,财政根据农业发展的实际情况进行补贴。
