对管理学的理解和认识——基于理论的视角

管理学作为当代社会科学一门主流学科难以名副其实。理论研究中的方向迷失造成管理理论的异常混乱。管理理论与实践脱节在全世界都是严重的问题。中国管理学研究者的自娱自乐式研究和骗取科研经费的“伪装式”研究应当终止。有责任的管理学研究者应该致力于纠正偏失，以特有的使命感，为振兴中国管理学做出力所能及的贡献。     

从关联理论视角解读幽默言语的认知过程

关联理论作为解释人类交际的认知语用学理论,同样也适用于幽默言语的研究。幽默言语的认知过程遵循最佳关联原则,即从启动最大关联语境的第一阶段进入到寻找最佳关联语境的第二阶段。而幽默言语的幽默效应正是来自于最大关联与最佳关联之间意义的反差。     

制造商角度下营销渠道结构选择的博弈分析

营销渠道结构的选择是制造商在产品营销过程中的重要环节。随着Internet及电子商务的发展,营销渠道在传统结构的基础上发生了显著的变化。本文从制造商的角度出发,建立了渠道结构选择中制造商与中间商的博弈模型,得出影响制造商渠道结构选择的关键要素,并在此基础上提出制造商在渠道选择中应采取的相应策略。     

中国电信行业互联互通问题的博弈分析

在分析我国电信行业互联互通现状的基础上,引入一个双寡头动态博弈模型,说明在垂直一体化的经营模式下,网络规模不对等的电信运营商之间实现互联互通是激励不相容的,由此提出相应的政策建议。     

Spatial Evolution of Social Norms in a Common-Pool Resource Game

We study the conditions for the emergence of cooperation in a spatial common-pool resource (CPR) game. We consider three types of agents: cooperators, defectors and enforcers. The role of enforcers is to punish defectors for overharvesting the resource. Agents are located on a circle and they only observe the actions of their two nearest neighbors. Their payoffs are determined by both local and global interactions and they modify their actions by imitating the strategy in their neighborhood with the highest average payoffs on average. Using theoretical and numerical analysis, we find a large diversity of equilibria to be the outcome of the game. In particular, we find conditions for the occurrence of equilibria in which the three strategies coexist. We also derive the stability of these equilibria. Finally, we show that introducing resource dynamics in the system favors the occurrence of cooperative equilibria.      

FTPL-Perspective on Tradable Deficit Permits in the EMU

The Growth and Stability Pact restricts member states in their fiscal policy but also causes inflexibility in the pursuit of wide-ranging economic and social reforms. Tradable deficit permits allow more flexibility for individual member states and provide a stick for those who exceed the deficit limit but also a carrot to those who stay below it. But does the trade in deficit permits affect the monetary objectives of the European Central Bank (ECB)? We argue that from a perspective of fiscal theory of the price level, trade in deficit permits can lead to higher inflation depending on the growth rate and the debt/GDP ratio of the member states.

Karl Pearson and the Scandinavian School of Statistics

The relationship between Karl Pearson and the Scandinavian statisticians was more of a competitive than a collaborative nature. We describe the leading statisticians and stochasticists of the Scandinavian school, and relate some of their work to the work of Pearson.     

Here come the men in black Technology and anxiety in the postmodern age

This review of the film Men in Black argues that what used to be alarming in the science fiction genre has now become its main source of humour. As a reactionary response to the dystopic X-Files, MiB is an elaborate parody which seeks to recuperate ideological ground lost by the X-Files' examination of gender and technology in contemporary culture. Anxiety about the roles of technology, gender and the state are replaced by humour about the notion of anxiety itself. Anxious we may be at the close of the millenium, but MiB tells us to just laugh it all away.
