建立供方关系管理模型,打造采购战略合作伙伴

供应商关系管理是企业采购核心管理的重要问题。根据对供应商进行SWOT分析,识别与企业自身发展方向一致的供应商,拟建立长期合作伙伴关系。从供应商感知模型出发,改善、维系供需关系,并通过建立供应商信任度模型,动态跟踪管理,维护供应商战略合作伙伴关系,稳定供应商团队。     

企业社会责任报告评价体系的初步研究

目前国外对企业社会责任报告的评价模式有两个理论基础:利益相关者理论和可持续发展理论。前者着眼于企业的不同利益相关者对信息的需求,从外部对企业的社会责任报告进行评价;后者则着眼于企业战略,从企业可持续发展的角度评价企业社会责任报告,是从内部进行评价的模式。与此对应的具有代表性的两个国际标准是AA1000与G3。对比分析发现,这两种模式和两个标准各自都存在着优缺点。结合我国的实际状况,我们构建了企业社会责任报告的3R评价体系。该体系的建立将有助于我国企业社会责任报告准则的建立,并为企业社会责任信息质量的实证研究提供可行的框架。     

低碳经济：社会可持续发展的路径选择

针对全球气候变暖问题,人类首要的路径选择当为低碳经济,以缓解全球气候变暖,实现人类社会的可持续发展。在此,发达国家应该在低碳经济发展中具有非凡的自律意识和自觉性,依其雄厚的实力和先进的科技,尽快打造低碳经济和低碳社会模式,营造人类的生态文明,并将此传播于全人类。发展中国家,应该积极响应国际社会所倡导的低碳经济理念,努力汲取先进的低碳技术,逐渐建构低碳经济框架,实施低碳经济。     

基于AHP的文化旅游资源评价与可持续发展研究——以江苏省洪蓝镇为例

文章采用AHP法,对江苏省洪蓝镇的文化旅游资源进行了定量评价,结果表明旅游资源价值的权重最大,其次为旅游景区环境与旅游资源开发条件,在此基础上提出文化旅游可持续发展的调控对策,以期为决策者提供建议。     

城市化进程视角下的“土地财政”问题研究——基于新疆数据的实证分析

通过剖析导致"土地财政"产生的原因,利用新疆1995—2009年的相关数据,通过单位根检验和协整检验,建立时间序列模型,对土地财政与一般预算收入、经济增长率、城市化率之间的长期均衡关系进行实证分析。研究结果表明:地方政府面临的财政压力和逐利行为是促进地方政府向土地财政"伸手"的动力,土地财政的最大风险是危及中国的城市可持续发展。因此,须深化财税体制改革,完善土地分配机制,转换政绩考核标尺来规范地方政府行为,促进地方经济和社会的和谐发展,这样才能杜绝土地财政现象。     

“负责任旅游”及其相关概念辨析

对负责任旅游的研究与实践因其在旅游目的地竞争中的作用而日益发展着。旅游界对“负责任旅游”的概念存在多角度的解释。对负责任旅游及其相关概念的看法模糊不清．从负责任旅游的特征出发,剖析其内涵,对负责任旅游及其相关概念的差异进行对比分析。在负责任旅游与其他相关概念的区别与联系中认识它们的共同性与特殊性,分析它们之间的交互关系,为更好地应用负责任旅游理论推进旅游目的地可持续发展目标的实现提供依据．     

上市公司可持续增长率偏差的实证分析

按照可持续增长率进行发展,要求企业全面权衡各方面的契约关系,以稳定的契约结构获取企业的长期增长。但是在现实中由于各种原因,企业不可能完全按照可持续增长率进行增长,出现了可持续增长率偏差。本文通过对我国A股市场的上市公司在1997-2005年的可持续增长情况进行分析,研究了我国上市公司可持续增长率偏差的主要影响因素及其对未来经营业绩的影响。研究结果表明：影响可持续增长率偏差的主要因素包括资产运作效率变动、资本结构的调整、外部权益融资和销售净利率的变化,鼓励政策对企业的可持续增长率偏差并没有显著作用。另外本文还验证了较高的可持续增长率偏差对后期（5年）的业绩提高具有消极作用。     

Consistency and Recovery in Retail Supply Chains

Practitioners and researchers describe inventory service level with metrics that communicate the likelihood of demand fulfillment without considering the ongoing capabilities of the supplier, for example, in‐stock and fill rate. We develop a method for measuring inventory service level that incorporates such supplier capabilities, namely consistency (the ability of a supplier to fulfill orders repeatedly) and recovery (the ability of a supplier to fulfill orders after a lapse in service). Using data from two retail supply chains, we illustrate our approach. To demonstrate the impact of consistency and recovery on supply chain performance, we model a retailer purchasing from competing suppliers with different levels of consistency and recovery. The model incorporates the retailer's uncertainty about demand and the retailer's uncertainty about its suppliers' service levels. We characterize how the retailer's orders and profitability change with a supplier's delivery performance through numerical experiments calibrated with field data. We find notable differences in market share across suppliers with similar traditional inventory service level metrics but differences in consistency and recovery. Further, we observe that a retailer can increase its profitability by determining orders via consistency and recovery in lieu of common metrics like in‐stock. Given the influence of consistency and recovery on supply chain outcomes, we discuss implications for practice and future research.     

Determinants of how individuals choose,eat and waste: Providing common ground to enhance sustainable food consumption out‐of‐home

The transformation of food consumption in wealthy economies is regarded as an essential measure to reach global sustainability goals. However, existing policies and research activities to change food consumption in the increasingly relevant out‐of‐home sector relate to a wide set of options on how to influence behaviours and may be criticized to lack a general focus. Against this background, our study provides a structured review of the existing research body on the determinants of individuals’ food choices and food consumption out‐of‐home. It structures the various research approaches and findings for 110 selected papers according to a general ecological framework where personal, social and environmental determinants for food behaviours are considered. By providing a collective overview and linking results for different behavioural aspects and settings, this study supports a more general understanding of consumer food behaviour in out‐of‐home settings. Consequently, it also provides a means to identify research gaps and to suggest relevant aspects for future research to draw from the combination of findings and to enhance sustainability in food consumption.     

Determinants of the adjusted net saving rate in developing economies

The adjusted net saving rate, initially known as the genuine saving rate, was first published by the World Bank in the late 1990s as a more comprehensive measure of national saving and one more indicative of sustainable development. The adjusted net saving rate incorporated not just physical capital depreciation, but natural capital depletion and environmental damage, as well as including some human capital formation. In this paper, using a cross‐section of developing economies for 2001–2006, determinants of the adjusted net saving rate are estimated. For comparison, the same determinants for the gross national saving rate are estimated. Also, a basic Solow growth model is extended to incorporate natural resources and to justify a more comprehensive measure of savings, such as the adjusted net saving rate, for modeling economic growth. The two measures of savings are then compared as determinants in estimations of economic growth. Understanding the determinants of the adjusted net saving rate is useful for policies to promote sustainable development.
