我国股东大会决议瑕疵救济探究

我国《公司法》确认了股东大会决议瑕疵救济制度,但其救济体系有一定的滞后和缺陷。缺乏非诉救济途径的规定、决议瑕疵诉讼类型不完善、行使撤销股东大会决议瑕疵的诉权主体范围过于太窄、股东大会决议瑕疵的判决效力界定不明晰。为进一步保护中小股东等利害关系人的合法权益,稳定市场交易秩序,建议引入非诉救济途径,同时完善诉讼救济途径的相关法律规定。     

基于模糊偏好的冲突决策共识模型研究

为了描述冲突中决策者主观判断的模糊性特点,基于冲突分析图模型研究框架,对简单偏好下的冲突决策共识理论进行系统性拓展,构建了模糊偏好下的冲突决策共识模型。将模糊理论中的梯形模糊数引入决策者的偏好设置中,对偏好信息进一步划分,给出模糊共识偏好和模糊非共识偏好的定义;为便于模糊偏好下冲突决策共识稳定解的计算和分析,定义了逻辑稳定性和矩阵稳定性表达;利用构建的冲突决策共识模型分析湄公河流域水资源冲突事件,从而得到最优解决方案。结果表明,该模型能够准确有效地解决模糊偏好下的冲突决策共识问题。     

Mediation as an Ethical Adjunct of Stakeholder Theory

A driving force behind the evolution of the stakeholder concept is the potential of negative outcomes for an organization as the result of conflict between that organization and its stakeholders. Where conflict does arise between an organization and stakeholder how might it be resolved in a manner compatible with stakeholder theory? Applying feminist ethical theory as a theoretical basis for stakeholder theory, mediation provides an appropriate process for resolving such disputes in comparison to traditional adversarial strategies. This paper discusses the attributes of mediation, and its potential benefits as a method to resolve disputes between businesses and their stakeholders.     

Advances in Drama Theory for Managing Global Hazards and Disasters. Part II: Coping with Global Climate Change and Environmental Catastrophe

We explore issues of group decision making for reducing global environmental risk, with particular reference to the political dynamics surrounding international agreements on tackling climate change. Continuing political delays in deciding to reduce greenhouse gas emissions may make it necessary to resort to high risk and controversial geo-engineering solutions, such as injecting large amounts of sulfur dioxide into the stratosphere, despite the unforeseen, potentially catastrophic consequences that these entail. Advances in drama theory (dt.2) are used to analyze the prospects for agreement on reducing or stabilizing greenhouse gas emissions, following the Bali agreement of December 2007. It is concluded that Western nations and emerging economies are behaving like players in a game of “chicken”, each expecting the other to take on the main burden of emissions reduction. We judge it unlikely that either will play a full part until it is too late for emissions reduction alone to avert environmental catastrophe. At that point, parties will resort to geo-engineering “fixes”, despite the risks. However, all such forecasts are conditional on decisions made and attitudes taken by political leaders and the public. Our analysis serves to pinpoint the relevant decisions and attitudes.     

Conflict resolution strategies in joint purchase decisions for major household consumer durables: a cross‐cultural investigation

Previous studies on joint purchase decisions have investigated the types of conflict resolution strategies used by spouses, the usage frequency of different conflict resolution strategies, and the effects of demographics and various other variables, on the uses of conflict resolution strategies. Despite efforts to address this largely unexplored area, the role that culture plays in the use of conflict resolution strategies has been significantly ignored. Using a cross‐cultural perspective, this study addresses the gap in our understanding of the joint purchase decisions in the family by examining how husbands and wives of three ethnic groups in Britain – British Whites, Indians and African Blacks – use different conflict resolution strategies while jointly purchasing major household consumer products. The total sample comprised 583 husbands and wives of British White, Indian and African Black origin residing in London and Manchester in Britain. Our results showed that three conflict resolution strategies are used by both husbands and wives: bargaining, assertiveness and playing on an emotion. In addition, disengagement emerged as a strategy for husbands, whereas supplication emerged for wives. The study presented in this paper also provides substantial evidence of differences in the use of conflict resolution strategies by husbands and wives from the three ethnic groups, which greatly improves our knowledge on a cross‐cultural perspective of joint purchase decisions.     

The effects of resolution methods and industry stress on the loss on assets from bank failures

In this paper, we examine how the value of failed bank assets differs between two types of FDIC resolution methods: liquidation and private-sector reorganization. Our findings show that private-sector reorganizations do not deliver the expected cost-savings from 1986 to 1991, a period of industry distress. On a univariate basis, the net loss on assets is lower for a private-sector reorganization than for a liquidation in both a period of industry distress and of industry health. However, institutions with higher quality assets and higher franchise values are more likely to be resolved using a private-sector resolution. Once we control for this selection bias, we find that institutions that are resolved during periods of industry distress result in higher resolution costs than liquidation. During periods of industry health, private-sector resolutions are less costly than liquidations. We show that if a bank that failed during the post-crisis period instead failed during the crisis period, its net loss as a percent of assets would have been 3.232 percentage points higher. Given that the average net loss on assets ratio is 21.42 percent during our sample period from 1986 to 2007, the increase in costs is economically significant.     

超高分辨率PolSAR图像去噪对极化特征的影响

随着超高分辨率极化合成孔径雷达(PolSAR)图像数据的出现，有必要对PolSAR图像的去噪过程对于极化分解结果的影响进行评测。相干斑去噪过程的实施将对观测场景中的PolSAR图像原有极化属性产生不同程度的影响，这将会导致分解结果出现偏差。以非相干分解模型为评估对象，以喷气推进实验室(JPL)提供的开源机载超高分辨率PolSAR系统数据为实验样本，提出了一种利用绝对相对误差的定量评测方法。评测结果显示：对于超高分辨率图像，相干斑噪声的影响明显变小，分解窗口可相应的缩小为7×7的尺寸。研究结果对于PolSAR图像的后期遥感应用中的参数选择具有重要参考意义。
