劳动力城乡统筹的政治经济学分析

从政治经济学的角度看，劳动力价值是由其成本决定的，并受市场供求关系的影响。研究发现，与农村劳动力再生产成本相比，农村劳动力价格过低。原因在于：一是劳动力市场总量供过于求；二是劳动力市场在结构上处于一种分割状态，从属劳动力市场大量低素质劳动力的存在导致了这部分市场供给严重过剩，劳动力价格难以提升。要打破市场分割，必须加大对农村人力资本的投入，提高劳动者价值。     

Why Are Quit Rates Lower Among Defense Contractors?

This paper presents empirical evidence of lower quit rates at small manufacturers with defense contracts and examines whether this is associated with differences in their human resource policies and organizational practices and strategies. We take advantage of an original data set to compare labor quits, workforce skills, and occupational structure between defense‐contracting and noncontracting small manufacturers in eastern Pennsylvania. We find that the remarkably large defense contractor advantage in quit rates—7 percentage points—is almost totally explained by differences in skills, operational strategies, and workforce management and training practices, suggesting a mediation effect through these HR practices. Defense‐contracting status emerges as an important overlooked variable in HRM studies.     

投资者关系管理的内涵、理论与实践——基于粤传媒的案例研究

研究表明,投资者关系管理的本质是自愿披露与市值管理,市场化是形成自愿披露的内在动力,信号显示和声誉机制是解决冲突的有效方法。在此基础上,以中小企业板上市公司＂粤传媒＂信息披露案例为背景,考察了投资者关系管理部门的设置方法,信息披露成本的变化,如何选择信息的披露内容、披露时点、披露程度和披露形式;总结了对财务信息、重大事项信息和高管勤勉尽职信息披露的经验。得到的启示是上市公司需要用＂心＂来真诚地对待投资者,才能得到投资者的认同;利用好网络平台,才能通过直接披露成本的有效投入来降低或规避间接成本的发生。这些结果为投资者关系管理的内涵、理论与实践的运作过程提供了参考。     

Labor market institutions and inflation volatility in the euro area

Despite having had the same currency for many years, EMU countries still have quite different inflation dynamics. In this paper we explore one possible reason: country specific labor market institutions, giving rise to different inflation volatilities. When unemployment insurance schemes differ, as they do in EMU, reservation wages react differently in each country to area-wide shocks. This implies that real marginal costs and inflation also react differently. We report evidence for EMU countries supporting the existence of a cross-country link over the cycle between labor market structures on the one side and real wages and inflation on the other. We then build a DSGE model that replicates the data evidence. The inflation volatility differentials produced by asymmetric labor markets generate welfare losses at the currency area level of approximately 0.3% of steady state consumption.     

Does pay affect productivity or react to it?: Examination of U.S. manufacturing

There may be a bi-directional relationship between wages and labor productivity. According to conventional theory, employers reward improvements in productivity by raising pay. It also has been argued that wage increases can provide an incentive to improve productivity. This study applies a technique by Geweke to identify the feedback between pay and productivity in U.S. manufacturing. For the 1949–1998 period, measures of directional feedback indicate that both “pay as reward” and “pay as incentive” behaviors have occurred, but the results vary across manufacturing subsectors.     

A comparison of the Japanese and U.S. business cycles

This paper constructs a consistent set of quarterly Japanese data for the 1960–2002 sample period and compares properties of the Japanese and U.S. business cycles. We document some important differences in the adjustment of labor input between the two countries. In Japan most of the adjustment is in hours per worker of males and females and also in employment of females. In the U.S. most of the adjustment is in employment of both males and females. We formulate, estimate, and analyze a model that makes the distinction between the intensive and extensive margin and allows for gender differerences in labor supply. A weak empirical correlation between hours per worker and employment in Japanese data is a puzzle for our theory.     

专业化分工、网络组织与产业集群演进机理分析

产业集群的形成和发展不仅是劳动分工深化的结果,也是某种特定交易制度安排的结果。信任的扩展是集群分工发展的基本动力,而网络以它特有的信息、规范功能有效地保证了这一过程的顺利进行。因此,分工不仅受市场规模或范围的限制,实际上也受制度安排中交易效率的限制。政府在产业集群中的作用更多的是要注重经济制度的建构,对基于普遍性信任的交易进行规范,以此降低交易费用,促进产业集群持续、健康发展。     

从《劳动合同法》的实施争议看劳资博弈的地位失衡

《劳动合同法》的实施引起资方的强烈反对。一部旨在保护劳动者权益促进劳资关系和谐发展的法律引起相关各方的争议本属正常,但在这一劳资双方利益博弈的过程中,劳动者的失语却凸显了劳动者与资方的不对等关系。只有赋予切实赋予劳动者与资方同等的政治地位与权利,完善集体谈判和集体合同的制度保障,才能根本上改变劳动者的地位,促进劳动者权益的保护。     

城镇劳动力市场雇佣关系的演化及影响因素

本文利用跨度为二十年(1988年到2007年)的微观家计数据,分析了我国城镇地区雇佣关系在经济转型时期从单一固定工向多元灵活雇佣关系转变的过程。将我国城镇地区的雇佣关系分成四种类型,探讨了雇佣关系构成从1988年到2007年的变化及其影响因素,以及各种因素的相对重要性。分析发现,从1988年开始,我国的雇佣关系构成中灵活雇佣比重开始逐步上升,到2002年,短期雇佣、无合同雇佣等灵活雇佣形式的比重达到一个较高水平,进入2007年,稳定雇佣关系的比重略有回升。扩展的Oaxaca-Blinder分解所得结果表明,从1995年到2002年,劳动力市场灵活性增强主要受到转型过程中制度变迁等不可观测因素的影响;进入2007年,稳定的雇佣关系比重略有回升,放松管制和市场深化的效应逐渐释放殆尽,特征变量对提高雇佣稳定性的作用开始显现。
