“可能世界”理论视野中的武侠世界

“可能世界”指的是人们能够想象的任何不包含逻辑矛盾的世界。武侠小说所刻画的武侠世界虽然是人们想象的结果,但由于在武侠世界这个共同空间里,同时存在着两个物理世界,违背了同一律、矛盾律和排中律而自相矛盾,从而不是一个“可能世界”。     

MIGRATION,SOCIAL NETWORKS,AND CREDIT: EMPIRICAL EVIDENCE FROM PERU

We seek evidence of the causal relationship between migration, social networks, and the probability of receiving credit in a developing country where credit markets are weak and internal migration is common. Migrants may face binding asymmetric information constraints as they often lack collateral. Social networks can help mitigate these constraints. Conversely, migrants might face higher liquidity constraints and might, therefore, demand more credit than nonmigrants. The effect of migration on participation in the credit market is thus ambiguous. Compounding this, migration and credit may be jointly determined. We utilize rich data from Peru to establish the net effect of migration on credit and the role that social networks play in this relationship.     

Self-employment in urban China: Networking in a transition economy

This paper investigates the relationship between self-employment and social networks in urban China, an economy rife with informational and institutional imperfections, under-developed financial markets, but a growing and important non-state sector. Having a social network can help the self-employed access supply and credit networks, and assist in navigating an uncertain institutional environment where permissions and licenses often require inter-personal relationships to facilitate and reduce the informational costs of enforcement by dealing with known persons. Thus, holding other productive and observable traits constant including attitude toward risk where possible, social networks are expected to be a significant correlate to self-employment which is borne out by the evidence. Examining three tranches of the self-employed (those who are self-employed, those who are self-employed as a second job, and a sub-sample who have experienced unemployment and then became self-employed), the paper finds that social networks significantly predict self-employment except for those who are working for themselves as a second job. Gender differences are also notable.

《1844年经济学哲学手稿》中的生态文明思想

援助之手还是攫取之手？——关于中国式分权的一个假说及其验证

中国式分权的核心内涵是“政治集权”与“经济分权”的紧密结合。“政治集权”下主要基于相对经济绩效的晋升考核制度是地方政府激励的基本源泉;“经济分权”则给予了地方政府必要的资源支配权以保障这种激励效应的有效性。本文在将地区要素禀赋差异约束纳入模型后得出的基本推论是,“政治集权”下的“经济分权”将会加剧地方政府为谋求私人利益的“攫取之手”行为。我们以1998—2006年省级面板数据为样本的计量检验结果也发现了财政分权指标与腐败水平之间的正相关关系,并且,这个发现是比较稳健的,这在一定程度上证实了本文的理论推断。
