培养大学生学习兴趣 提高本科教学质量

学习兴趣是探索未知世界的一种倾向，是学习动机中最积极、最活跃的部分。培养大学生浓厚的学习兴趣，有助于培养创新拔尖人才，提高本科教学质量。培养大学生学习兴趣的对策是：转变教育理念，引导教育者认识到学习的重要性；重视教育的内在目的，对大学生高层次要求；摒弃“重硬环境建设，轻软环境建设”的管理哲学，营造浓郁的求真文化氛围。     

The preferential option for the poor and the Marxian-Christian perspective on distributive justice

Using a social economics perspective, this essay examines the positive and negative effects of job security, insecurity and the perceptions thereof on the welfare of workers, organizations, and society, as well as policy options that could alleviate the negative socio-economic consequences of job insecurity. The essay questions perceived job insecurity as a device to increase worker effort, both on efficiency and ethical grounds. It also suggests that increased perceptions of job insecurity have adversely affected workers' well-being and have undesirable macroeconomic and social effects. Public policy makers and researchers should examine ways to minimize the negative consequences associated with involuntary job loss. They should also consider to what extent both limiting firms' ability to layoff workers and providing incentives to firms that downsize to use alternatives to layoffs are socially desirable.

民营上市公司董事会治理与企业成长性的门槛效应

文章从公司内部治理论出发，在公司规模和董事会规模存在差异的情况下，运用门槛面板模型对民营上市公司董事会治理与企业成长性的关系进行了实证研究。本研究基于2004－2013年的民营上市公司数据库，对董事会治理与企业成长性进行了门槛面板回归分析，结果表明，民营上市公司董事会治理与企业成长性会因为公司规模差异而呈现出显著的门槛效应，表现为当企业规模较小时，两者关系负相关，而当企业规模较大时，二者负相关的程度有所减弱。同理，在董事会规模存在差异时，董事会治理与企业成长性也会存在一定的门槛效应。修正了原来基于西方成熟市场经济国家的董事会治理理论，在全面深化改革背景下提出了民营企业应基于具体规模采用不同的成长战略的策略思考。     

Asymmetric interest rate pass-through in the U.S., the U.K. and Australia: New evidence from selected individual banks

This paper provides new evidence on asymmetric interest rate pass-through in the U.S., the U.K. and the Australian economies by using the Nonlinear Auto-Regressive Distributed Lag model, central bank interest rates, lending and deposit interest rates from selected banks, spanning the period 2000–2013. The results provide evidence that corroborates the asymmetric pass-through market predictions. Robustness tests are also performed by splitting the sample period into that prior to and after the recent financial crisis. The new findings document that the asymmetric character of pass-through remains active only in the case of Australia.     

‘FAMILY’ OWNERSHIP,TUNNELLING AND EARNINGS MANAGEMENT: A REVIEW OF THE LITERATURE

Abstract In this review paper, we bring together a number of aspects of family firms that are ubiquitous in a number of institutional contexts, often as part of larger business groups. We pay particular attention to the mechanisms by which families retain control over firms, and the incentives of the families in control to expropriate other stakeholders by way of tunnelling. We examine the role of earnings management in facilitating tunnelling, and evidence about the incidence of earnings management in family firms. Our review suggests that while the literature on these aspects of family control is rich, the contexts in which the empirical exercises are undertaken are relatively few, and hence there is considerable opportunity to expand it to other contexts, in particular in the form of cross‐country comparisons of the relative impact of agency conflicts and institutions on these issues.     

PPP模式下的城中村改造问题研究——以郑州市城中村改造为例

SOUTH AFRICAN MARKET VOLATILITY,ASYMMETRY AND RETAIL INTEREST RATES PASS‐THROUGH

The purpose of this paper is to examine the interest rate transmission mechanism for South Africa as an emerging economy in a pre‐repo and repo system. It explains how the money market rate is transmitted to the retail interest rates both in the long run and short run, and tests the symmetric and asymmetric interest rate pass‐through using the error‐correction model (ECM) and the adjusted ECM‐exponential generalised autoregressive conditional heteroscedasticity (ECM‐EGARCH) (1,1)‐M methodology. This permitted the examination of the impact of interest rate volatility, along with the leverage effect. An incomplete pass‐through is found in the short run. From the entire sample period, a symmetric adjustment is found in the deposit rate, which had upward rigidity adjustment, while an asymmetric adjustment is found in the lending rate, with a downward rigidity adjustment. All the adjustments supported the collusive pricing arrangements. According to the conditional variance estimation of the ECM‐EGARCH (1,1), negative volatility impact and leverage effect are present and influential only in the symmetric deposit interest rate adjustment process in South Africa.
