铁路枢纽工程咽喉区复杂道岔组织施工技术研究

站场咽喉改造需在不影响铁路运营的前提下在封锁点内完成。如何安全、高效、可行地完成施工任务,关键在于制定详细可行的方案,而施工组织是决定方案是否可行的关键。因此,论文结合哈尔滨站咽喉区组合道岔的施工情况,对施工组织设计及施工技术方案进行了论述。     

征税成本领先性假设与中国税务组织结构优化——兼析中国国税、地税机构是否存在合并趋势

本文从征税成本领先性假设出发探讨了中国税务组织结构的优化问题 ,并分析了社会各界广泛关注的中国国税、地税机构是否存在合并趋势的问题。本文在对中国现行税务组织机构运行绩效考察的基础上 ,发现中国征税成本曲线呈抛物线状 ,表明中国征税成本正呈递减趋势。以此为出发点 ,本文详细论证了中国国税、地税机构不存在合并的趋势 ,相反 ,分设更为彻底却是今后的发展趋势 ,得出了与一般看法不同的结论 ,并对优化中国税务组织结构提出了政策建议     

Estimating Market Power in the South African Banking Sector

Indicators of market power can be ambiguous because cost economies associated with scale and not market imperfections may influence results. This article illustrates that without direct measures of concentration, estimates of costs, scale economies and profitability can be used to identify market power in banking. Secondly, via this method, econometric estimates provide meaningful evidence of market power in the South African banking sector over the study sample period (1979–1998). A reasonable conclusion is that while industrial structure is important, careful consideration needs to be given to cost economies and profitability when assessing market power. In addition, there is a need to consider appropriate policy to reduce market power in banking in South Africa.     

Land conservation and tenure security in Kenya: Boserup's hypothesis revisited

Land conservation technologies used by farmers are known to play an important role in improving farm incomes and household welfare in the long run. For this reason substantial investments have been made in research to improve agricultural technologies in various parts of the world, from the development of new crop varieties to new practices of land management. This paper explores the impact of land rights among other factors on adoption of soil and water conservation practices. The study further tests for Boserup's hypothesis (correlation between population density, land conservation and property rights) using panel survey data collected from farming households. The key findings of the paper are that property right regimes and population density affect both the decision to conserve land as well as the type of conservation practices used by farmers. The results further suggest a positive correlation between land tenure security and population density, thus supporting Boserup's hypothesis. The findings call for pursuit of both short-term and long-term policy measures that offer incentives for land conservation through government initiatives and participation of local communities.     

非农化经营与农业上市公司经营绩效——理论分析与实证检验

我国农业上市公司非农化经营现象甚为严重,这一现象对农业上市公司经营绩效的影响引起了社会各界的广泛关注.农业上市公司非农化经营主要可以归纳为产业层次和企业管理层次这两方面成因.农业发展不足的现实成为我国农业上市公司非农化经营取向的最大产业背景因素.文章运用农业比较利益理论、外部性理论以及多元化经营理论,形成对农业上市公司非农化经营成因和非农化经营对绩效影响的理论分析框架.通过实证分析所得出的结论是:非农化经营从整体上减损了农业上市公司经营绩效.研究认为,政府应该着力在改善农业投资经营环境和制度创新上下功夫,才可能真正引导农业上市公司专注于农业上来;同时认为,目前农业上市公司主要应当实施农业专业化经营战略,在条件具备的情况下才实施与主业相关的多元化战略,现阶段应尽量避免非相关多元化经营.     

土地经营适度规模的初步研究

土地经营的适度规模是与一定的自然，经济、社会、技术条件相适应的，它的大小受资源禀赋，经营环境（经济发展水平，农业社会服务体系完善程度，风险和不确定性因素。政策性配套措施，其他社会经济条件）、生产力水平，劳动者素质等多种因素的影响，本文从分析土地经营适度规范的影响因素和我国推行适度规模经营的条件入手，对全国30个省级行政单位进行了分区，指明了各区的发展方向，并测算了现阶段我国土地经营的适度规模，最后给出了各地计算适度规模的方法。     

基于投影模型的不确定语言型多属性决策方法及应用

研究了不确定语言型多属性决策评价结果与决策者对方案的偏好信息之间存在偏差的问题,提出了基于投影模型的不确定多属性决策方法。该方法通过建立与区间型语言标度对应的术语指标矩阵,及方案综合属性值与决策者主观偏好值之间的投影模型,确定属性的权重,然后运用加权法得到方案的综合属性值,利用已有的可能度矩阵排序公式得到决策方案的排序。最后,通过算例对该方法的实用性和有效性进行了说明。

Volatility in the knowledge economy

Summary. We seek to explain the economic volatility of the last 6 years, in particular the rapid expansion and contraction of the knowledge sectors. Our hypothesis is that these sectors amplify the business cycle due to their increasing returns to scale, growing faster than others in an upswing and contracting faster in a downswing. To test this hypothesis we postulate a general equilibrium model with two sectors: one with increasing returns that are external to the firm and endogenously determined - the knowledge sector - and the other with constant returns to scale. We introduce a new measure of volatility of output, a real beta, and derive a resolving equation, from which we prove that the increasing return sectors exhibit more volatility then other sectors. We validate the main results on US macro economic data of real GDP by industry (2-3 digits SIC codes) of the 1977-2001 period, and provide policy conclusions.Received: 18 March 2002, Revised: 16 February 2004, JEL Classification Numbers: D5, D58, E10, L50, L52, O38, O51.Correspondence to: Graciela Chichilnisky     

中国农村土地制度变迁:一个产权的视角

农地制度历来是中国农村变革的关键,其要义在于产权。本文从产权角度对建国后中国农地制度变迁作了简要分析。作者认为,产权的界定与实施决定着产权的经济绩效。土地改革以来各种农地制度创新形式的不同经济绩效都与产权清晰程度和实施机制有关。
