基于城市群生成视角的都市农业发展研究--以长株潭为例

随着城市化水平不断提高,我国将进入城市群快速建设期。如何促进地理位置相近、交通便捷的城市间融合,是一个值得探讨的问题。实践表明,都市农业作为一种崭新的现代农业形态,在促进城市群生成、实现城乡融合工农互动方面意义重大。文章以长株潭为例,分析了都市农业的促进作用,剖析了发展都市农业的优势条件,对城市群生成期都市农业建设框架进行了设计,并提出若干发展对策。     

上海市区商业等级空间的结构与演变

以上海为例,选取上海各个等级商业中心作为研究对象,探讨其发展演变特征和机制,预测未来商业的空间发展趋势,针对当前商业发展中出现的问题提出建议.研究认为,改革开放以后,由于经济水平提高导致的居民购买力下移、城市和交通的发展、消费行为方式的变化等要素的影响,使上海商业中心业态类型多样化,商品种类丰富,综合功能提高,并出现了以空间上的郊区化、等级上的社区化、结构上的扁平化为特征的新的发展趋势.对如何加强社区商业发展、市级商业中心建设、大卖场的合理规划等问题进行了讨论,并提出设想和发展思路.

基于“点—轴”理论的皖江城市带旅游空间布局整合

在皖江示范区承接长三角产业转移大背景下,适时调整并优化皖江城市旅游目的地空间组织系统,协调地区旅游业可持续发展则是发展皖江城市带旅游经济的基本要求。以＂点—轴＂理论为基础,以中心职能指数和引力模型的定量方法界定皖江示范区旅游城市节点、旅游开发轴线及其基础上的旅游地系统。研究表明：一级旅游城市节点为合肥市、芜湖市、池州市和安庆市,原巢湖市等10城镇为二级旅游节点;合肥—芜湖—宣城、马鞍山—池州—安庆、合肥—桐城—潜山交通段为一级旅游发展轴线,潜山—岳西—六安等9交通段为二级发展轴线。在此基础上,综合考虑各方面因素规划出示范区四大旅游地系统：滨湖—滨江旅游地系统、区北丘陵旅游地系统、宣州文化旅游地系统、大别山旅游地系统。     

Foreign direct investment and economic growth: Is more financial development better?

We investigate the extent to which an increase in financial development affects the positive effect of foreign direct investment on economic growth. Although the financial sector is beneficial for economic growth, the effect of further financial development on growth is found to become insignificant. Using a dynamic panel threshold model on 62 middle- and high-income countries spanning the period 1987–2016, we re-examine the possible nonlinearity between finance, foreign direct investment, and growth. Consistent with the “vanishing effect” of financial development, we find significant evidence that foreign direct investment fosters growth in general, but the growth effect of foreign direct investment becomes negligible when the ratio of private sector credit to gross domestic product exceeds 95.6%. This finding is robust to different econometric methods, various subsamples and interaction analyses, and distinct financial development indicators.     

Financial development,institutions, and poverty alleviation: an empirical analysis

The aim of this article is to analyse empirically whether the level of institutional quality influences how financial development affects poverty for a sample of developing countries covering the period from 1984 to 2012. Using an interaction term constructed as a product between financial development and institutional quality we find that the pro-poor impact of financial development decreases as the quality of institutions rises. Such a differential effect can be ascribed to the capacity of banks to provide functions that mimic those performed by an institutional framework that works well. The results of this article can be used for policy management.     

Railway development from the Japanese occupation period to the present – using Kaohsiung city as an example​​​​​​​​

This study intended to discuss the interactive influence of the emergence, transformation and decline of the railway in Kaohsiung Port on urban development, the population, the activities and the economy in the region during the period of 1895–2010, from the perspectives of urban planning, railway development, population and industry. This study used the crossover analysis method, and used the factors of railway development and urban planning, within a fixed time period, to explore the chain dependence relationship among the industry, the population, the regional economy and the railway stations in Kaohsiung city. This study found that urban planning, economic development, railway development and industry have an interactive influence on the overall urban development. Urban planning promotes the rapid growth of the population, and economic development propels the growth and shaping of the regional economy, thus increasing employment opportunities. In addition, the railway development process moves forward with urban development.     

Is the Threat of Foreign Aid Withdrawal an Effective Deterrent to Political Oppression? Evidence from 53 African Countries

This article complements existing literature on the aid-institutions nexus by focusing on political rights, aid volatilities, and the post-Berlin Wall period. Our findings show that, while foreign aid does not have a significant effect on political rights, foreign aid volatilities do mitigate democracy in recipient countries. Such volatilities could be used by populist parties to promote a neocolonial agenda, instill nationalistic sentiments, and consolidate their grip on power. This is especially true when donors are asking for standards that the majority of the population in control does not want and political leaders are unwilling to implement them. Our empirical evidence is based on 53 African countries for the period from 1996 to 2010. As a main policy implication, creating uncertainties in foreign aid for political rights enhancement in African countries may achieve the opposite results. We also discuss other implications, including the need for an “After-Washington” Consensus.     

Dynamics of industry architecture and firms’ knowledge and capability development: an empirical study of industry transformation

There is a lack of empirical evidence supporting existing conceptualisations and particularly clarifying the underlying mechanisms involved in the role of dominant firms in industry transformation. This research undertook an in-depth single case study of how a firm managed its knowledge and capability development processes to shape the industry architecture to its benefit. We investigated how a dominant firm manipulates the interdependencies with local suppliers and positions itself at higher levels of the industry architecture hierarchy. Findings suggest that such processes take place over the course of several product innovation projects and across different levels of the product architecture. Such findings contribute to helping firms to manage their knowledge and capability development processes and transform the industry architecture to their advantage.
