公共池塘资源自主治理理论与我国农村社区公共产品治理的研究

埃莉诺·奥斯特罗姆的公共池塘资源自主治理理论完善了准公共产品理论,结合社会资本因素的集体行动及制度供给理论给我们提供了研究农村社区公共产品供给及治理新的视角。基于此,在简要回顾目前国内农村社区公共产品治理研究及其不足之处的基础上,借鉴公共池塘资源自主治理理论,提出今后我国农村社区公共产品治理研究中需要进一步加强研究的内容及方向,以促进农村公共事业的可持续发展。     

Technology gap,imported capital goods and productivity of manufacturing plants in Sub-Saharan Africa

This paper uses firm-level data from Ghana, Tanzania and Kenya to examine the effect of capital goods imports on domestic firms' productivity, and the role firms' technology gap plays in aiding the transmission of knowledge embodied in capital goods to domestic firms. The results show that increasing imports of capital goods and closing technology gaps have positive effects on productivity. Furthermore, domestic firms with technology standards farther from international best practices benefit more from capital goods imports. The results also imply that trade liberalization policy aimed at eliminating tariffs on capital goods will significantly improve the performance of technically incompetent firms in the African manufacturing sector.     

Community participation in heritage tourism planning: is it too much to ask?

Considering the complications of collecting empirical data on community participation, this study proposes a new methodological approach that departs from the current literature. For the first time, an experimental procedure is adopted to conduct a direct comparison between participatory and non-participatory decision-making in the context of heritage tourism planning. Contrary to previous work, this is the first ex-ante assessment of community participation at a destination with no such prior experience. The analysis relies on behavioural data on choices, deliberation and conflict studied in the context of a controlled collaborative environment. The findings suggest that choices and deliberation between participatory and non-participatory groups exhibit no statistically significant differences although participatory groups were more susceptible to conflict. However, interestingly, conflict was constructive as it increased provisions for heritage goods. Furthermore, intra-group heterogeneity did not always affect collective decisions negatively whereas trust and institutional credibility played a major role in influencing both individual and collective preferences. These findings have important implications for research and policy, opening a novel avenue for the systematic study of participation dynamics to inform the instigation of participatory endeavours.     

社区公共物品协同供给系统主体间协同关系分析

社区公共物品协同供给系统主体协同关系良性有序,对于促进系统内供给主体的互动关系、强化协同意愿、建构整体合作网络、明晰协同合作路径、保障协同行为高效、提升供给协同效能具有关键支撑作用。运用博弈论理论和方法,探究社区公共物品协同供给系统内“政府-企业-社会组织-居民”多元主体间的供给协同博弈关系,建立“囚徒困境”模型分析系统内供给企业主体间协同关系,提出实现系统内供给企业主体间协同供给达到最佳效果的对策;同时利用静态博弈分析,研究供给企业主体与政府间通过博弈如何实现共赢,进而分析提出如何利用博弈实现供给主体间的协同合作。进一步采用上海、北京的实例阐释社会组织、供给企业与居民之间的协同关系,并提出在系统内各主体间如何进行协同合作。     

河南省农村公共物品投资的收入效应研究

通过运用面板数据模型对河南省农村公共物品部门固定资产投资对农民收入的影响进行分析,主要结论表明,河南省农村公共物品投资对农民收入的增长起到了积极的推动作用.当前,河南省农村公共物品供给匮乏且结构不合理,河南省农村人均收入和人均累计公共物品投资的地区差距在逐渐拉大.针对这些问题,我们应采取相应措施,以进一步提高河南省农民的收入水平.     

自愿连锁组织的经济性分析

从生产商的经济生产批量、零售商的经济订货批量以及生产商的数量—价格折扣模型的策略角度出发,针对自愿连锁组织集体物品收益,结合上海家联组建的自愿连锁运行现实,运用曼瑟尔.奥尔森、科斯等有关组织的研究结论,提出:由于存在物流配送信息系统的控制权问题以及控制权分散化所带来的效率损失,自愿连锁组织的集体物品收益在商品价格、数量等因素存在动态性变化下,团队生产的超额效率将被增加的监督成本所耗散掉,因此,自愿连锁组织集体物品不可能被提供到最优程度。     

Textbook Treatments of the Financial Market in the IS-LM Model

Intermediate macroeconomics textbooks introduce financial markets into the IS-LM analysis but typically as a beginning-of-period consideration. Here the financial market is introduced in an end-of-period model.     

基于奢侈概念历史考略的奢侈品管理科学范式研究

奢侈品管理科学的范式研究是以广义定义为核心内容的规范研究到论证和确定狭义定义为主要方向的实证研究之间至关重要的一个研究阶段,起着承上启下的作用。从奢侈品形成的历史考略入手,对奢侈概念进行了系统的整理,确定了现代奢侈品定义的发展逻辑,理清概念间的逻辑关系和差异的历史成因,构建了奢侈品管理科学的基本范式,并在此基础上对奢侈品广义定义进行了修正和补充,为奢侈品管理领域的研究解决了科学划界问题。     

Afriat’s theorem for indivisible goods

We identify a natural counterpart of the standard GARP for demand data in which goods are all indivisible. We show that the new axiom (DARP, for “discrete axiom of revealed preference”) is necessary and sufficient for the rationalization of the data by a well-behaved utility function. Our results complement the main finding of Polisson and Quah (2013), who rather minimally modify the original consumer problem with indivisible goods so that the standard GARP still applies.     

Institutionalism and the New Classical Economics

Neoliberalism has transformed markets supplying public goods. Analysis of five real-world Australian markets reveals the eligibility rules for access and ongoing participation, interaction of participants, the role of intermediaries and government, the extent of competition, complex regulatory regimes shaping and controlling these markets, and key market outcomes. Contrary to neoliberalism's free market rhetoric and the view promulgated by mainstream economics, a spectrum of market configurations and governance regimes were found along with participation being highly dependent on technology access and skills, market outcomes inconsistent with policy rhetoric, market interrelationships posing adverse cumulative impacts, and government is strongly interventionist through multiple roles.
