Contracting Under Endogenous Risk

Agents make decisions by trading off cost, return and risk. The literature, however, does not consider the impact of risk on action choice. We show that this tradeoff has important implications for the firm. First, the firm may provide no insurance in the salary. Since the agents action choice will determine her risk, the salary cannot compensate her for it. Second, the firm may not be able to design an incentive scheme to implement particularly risky actions. Finally, the firm may not be able to design a scheme in which the agent splits her effort across multiple tasks. This is particularly problematic for tasks that are technological substitutes.     

WTO争端解决机制下药品专利保护案对我国的启示

美诉印度药品和农业化学产品专利保护等案涉及的问题：未公布的行政做法与透明度原则的关系、DSH推理中司法经济原则之运用、不同成员基于同一事由再次申诉、专家组报告作为先例的约束力等，这些对我国有一定启示。结合我国目前药品专利实施情况，应运用公共利益原则，适当延长药品专利保护期；专利保护期将尽时对仿制药品予以保护。     

旅游发展驱动机制及动力模型探析

旅游发展动力是一个由旅游消费牵动和旅游产品吸引所构成的、并由中介系统和发展条件所联系的互动型动力系统。旅游发展不仅仅是旅游资源开发、旅游项目建设和服务设施配套等具体问题，而是整个经济社会发展的一个重要部分。本文试图摆脱“就资源论开发，就旅游讲发展”的老套路，根据现代旅游供求关系，提出旅游发展动力系统及其结构模型，从旅游发展动力组合中，找出推动旅游发展的主动因素和辅助因素，并建立不同类型区的旅游发展动力模型，以利于制定旅游与区域经济社会共同发展动力机制的培育对策。     

The impact of individual and managerial factors on salespeople's contribution to marketing intelligence activities

Although salespersons represent a unique and important channel of information, few of them contribute efficiently to marketing intelligence. This research aims to understand how salespeople's motivation and effort to gather and transmit marketing intelligence to management may be influenced by individual (organizational commitment, desire for upward mobility) and managerial (control system, participation in decision making, feedback, recognition) factors. The test of the proposed model shows that desire for upward mobility is the only individual determinant of behavior. Other than participation in decision making, all the managerial factors play influential roles in structuring both motivation and behavioral effort toward marketing intelligence by salespeople. The authors also discuss the limits of the model, some managerial implications, and future research opportunities.

Gender Effect in Explaining Mobility Patterns in the Labor Market: A Case Study of Turkey

This paper examines the importance of gender for different job mobility patterns using an extensive household survey data from İzmir, the third largest city in Turkey. The determinants of job‐to‐job and job‐to‐nonemployment transitions are analyzed with the help of a multinomial logit estimation method. The results indicate that there is a distinction regarding the probability of job mobility patterns based on gender. It is more likely for women to be engaged in job‐to‐nonemployment transition, whereas men tend to change jobs more often. Although gender plays a significant role in job mobility patterns, traditionally imposed social constraints associated with childcare and household duties provide us with mixed results considering the behavior of women in the job market. On the other hand, having highly paid and secure jobs decreases the probability of both patterns of job mobility.     

Agency through Development: Hausa Women's NGOs and CBOs in Kano,Nigeria

ABSTRACT

Analyzing the participation of Hausa women in religiously influenced nongovernmental organizations (NGOs) devoted to development work provides critical insights into the complex intersection of gender, religion, class, culture, and politics and economics. Based on interviews with leaders and employees of various NGOs, including community-based organizations (CBOs), in Kano, Nigeria, in 2010–11, this in-depth case study provides important examples of how various types of NGOs navigate political pressures when it comes to funding; it recognizes the understudied importance of women's labor contributions in the context of the development apparatus in Africa; it highlights the role of women as progenitors rather than benefactors of economic development; and it illustrates the unique role that faith-based organizations (FBOs) can and do play in terms of reaching certain marginalized segments of the population.     

基于改进GA的滑行道路径冲突解脱研究

为解决多航空器在飞行区场面活动时存在的冲突问题,以优化后的滑行路径距离作为目标代价函数,提出一种滑动时间窗与GA相融合的冲突解脱模型。首先在滑行规则、安全间隔与滑行道实际条件等约束条件下构建场面滑行路径模型;其次提出基于滑动时间窗与GA融合的求解算法;最后选取成都双流机场为例进行仿真,并与传统GA算法进行对比分析,证明基于改进GA的算法模型在飞行区冲突解脱上更具有鲁棒性与自适应性。     

经济增长视角下的中国劳动力数量与结构变化

我国劳动年龄人口（15-59岁）已经在2012年呈现负增长,劳动力（20-59岁）数量也将从2016年开始下降,2022年开始,我国劳动力数量则会快速下降。目前劳动供给紧平衡,农村向城镇转移劳动力速度放缓,工资快速上涨,求人倍率连续三年大于1。伴随我国劳动力数量下降,劳动市场将供小于求,影响我国经济增长。文章建议,一方面要提高劳动参与率,降低经济对劳动力数量的依赖,另一方面要提高劳动效率,采取有效措施促进农村就业人口向城镇转移,减少结构性就业矛盾。     

新型高效杆件运送装置及方法

设计了一种圆形杆件的运送装置,该装置主要由一个特殊材料制造的圆锥体状导向器和内力紧固系统构成,利用普通机械传动力拖拽,可使之在地面滑行。圆锥体状导向器遇到地面障碍时能自动滑过,杆件也随之绕行。该装置不受地形影响,能过沟、坎、河流,综合效率可提高30倍以上,有效解决了交通困难地区大型杆件的运输问题。
