台湾地区“会计师法”的兴起、繁荣及启示

台湾地区现行会计师法共有五十一条,自1977年5月25日修订公布以来,已有五次修正。从这次新修台湾地区会计师法81条来看,其中新增条文35条,删除10条,修正38条,修正幅度堪称历年之最。台湾地区会计师法在最近数十年间得到了迅速发展,并以改善会计师执业环境,提升会计师执业品质,督促会计师专业自律功能为主要任务。台湾地区较早实行市场经济体制,不但市场体系非常发达,而且会计师法在其创新和实施的过程中,获得了一些成功的经验,对注册会计师行业在组织形态、会计师民事责任、赔偿责任主体及赔偿金额、规范会计市场的法律管制等更有借鉴价值。     

土地市场构建国家民事主体制度的思考

法律规定国务院代表国家行使土地所有权,但国务院并不能实际履行代表行为,又没有转委托于其他主体而使所有权行使主体缺位.土地行政监管部门自封为土地所有权的出让人,其结果不但是主体错位,而且为地方政府通过公权力主体"挟持"民事主体而形成政府间的竞争提供了法律依据.追求政绩工程的区域竞争是政府垄断建设用地供应市场的动力,由地方政府形成的进入障碍是城乡建设用地市场二元结构的制度性原因.统一城乡建设用地市场的关键是国家民事主体的地位独立和平等.     

Productivity efficiency analysis of the airlines in China after deregulation

Using data envelopment analysis and the Malmquist productivity index, this paper studies productivity efficiency of various airlines in China after the Chinese government deregulated the aviation industry in 2005. The results show that the productivity efficiency of non-state-owned airlines improves rapidly and eventually exceeds state-owned airlines after the deregulation policy. Among the state-owned airlines, the productivity of the local airlines and their technical changes are better than those of the central airlines.

Does the law and finance hypothesis pass the test of history?

For the body of work known as the law and finance literature, the development of financial markets and the concentration of ownership across countries is to a large extent the consequence of the legal system nations created or inherited decades or hundreds of years ago. Despite the seemingly historical nature of this explanation, most of the body of work supporting the law and finance hypothesis has been ahistorical. This paper summarises the business history literature and provides evidence on investor protection and financial development over the long run that challenges the main tenets of the law and finance literature.     

The twilight world of British business politics: The Spring Sunningdale conferences since the 1960s

This article explores a previously unknown form of interaction, known as Spring Sunningdale, between the British business elite and its civil servant equivalent in Whitehall. These began in 1963 and were still continuing only a few years ago. The continuity and stability of these meetings stands in contrast to wider changes in the nature of business–government relations in Britain during this period, particularly since the election of the Thatcher government in 1979. The article analyses why there was such continuity and what the senior civil servants and the captains of industry who attended these annual meetings gained from them.     

Bridging the Gap Between Strategy and Performance: Using Leadership Style to Enable Structural Elements

Successful leaders create structural elements in order to achieve the performance objectives set forth by organizational strategy. Supply chain oriented structural elements are reflected in an organization's relationships, both within the firm and with supply chain partners. In this research effort, we examine how such structural elements can be created as a means through which to enhance performance. Our hypothesized model is rooted in strategy‐structure‐performance theory and integrates elements of servant leadership theory and social exchange theory to explain how building organizational commitment via servant leadership behaviors can ultimately impact performance. We use a survey method to collect data from 158 motor carriers. The results of our structural equation model support our hypotheses and serve to extend the discussion of supply chain structural elements and the role of leadership style in achieving organizational performance.

Lord Acton and Employment Doctrines: Absolute Power and the Spread of At-Will Employment

This study analyzes the at-will employment doctrine using a tool that encompasses the complementarity of results-based utilitarian ethics, rule-based duty ethics, and virtue-based character ethics. The paper begins with a discussion of the importance of the problem followed by its evolution and current status. After describing the method of analysis, the central section evaluates the employment at-will doctrine, and is informed by Lord Acton’s dictum, “power tends to corrupt, and absolute power corrupts absolutely.” The conclusion explores the implications of the findings. This is a revised version of a paper presented at the World Ethics Forum, Oxford University, Oxford, UK April 9–12, 2006.     

法务会计在民事诉讼中的证据支持研究

法务会计是一门新兴学科,其主要职能是舞弊调查与诉讼支持。法务会计在不同诉讼中所提供的支持是不同的,在同一诉讼的不同阶段所起的作用也是不同的。法务会计在民事诉讼中证据收集时必须注意客观性、必要性及时性问题。目前,我国在民事诉讼制度方面缺乏系统的理论研究,现行的一些规定和作法基本建立在自发的传统习惯之上,已远远背离了社会发展现实的需要。法务会计在民事诉讼支持中,应提高法务会计诉讼支持的认知度、推进法务会计诉讼的理论研究、增强法务会计专家支持诉讼的能力、拓宽法务会计诉讼支持的业务领域、统一法务会计技术鉴定标准、明确执行诉讼支持业务的法务会计专家的法律责任、构建法务会计专家证人制度。
