China’s Contingencies: Critical Geopolitics,Chinese Exceptionalism and the Uses of History

This paper examines the intimate relationship between narratives emanating from China and their uses of Chinese history, and how such perspectives inform China’s geopolitical positioning and practices in lieu of its purported ‘rise’. Taking inspiration from the deconstructive impetus of critical geopolitics, this article contends that these historical claims to China’s rise constitute deterministic accounts, hinging on the notion of Chinese exceptionalism to provide discursive backing for a Sinocentric geopolitical order in the coming decades. This in turn downplays ‘alternative’ historiographies that can shed light on how the nature of China’s emergence may be more dependent on and shaped by the external environment than previously acknowledged. Building on the historical-geographical expositions related to the idea of contingency, this article demonstrates how China (whether it be in the past or present) cannot be seen as operating in a vacuum but has to constantly negotiate and adjust its strategy of engagements/interactions based on the specific demands imposed by world politics. Specifically, by elucidating these dimensions through cross-strait relations between China and Taiwan, it is argued that understanding China’s contingencies can raise important questions for us to critically appreciate the contextual actors, processes and relationships that differentially impact on China’s engagements in the world.     

Board directors with foreign experience and stock price crash risk: Evidence from China

This study examines the impact of board directors with foreign experience (BDFEs) on stock price crash risk. We find that BDFEs help reduce crash risk. This association is robust to a series of robustness checks, including a firm fixed effects model, controlling for possibly omitted variables, and instrumental variable estimations. Moreover, we find that the negative association between BDFEs and crash risk is more pronounced for firms with more agency problems, weaker corporate governance, and less overall transparency. Our findings suggest that the characteristics of board directors matter in determining stock price crash risk.     

Flood Risk and Salience: New Evidence from the Sunshine State

A growing literature finds evidence that flood risk salience varies over time, spiking directly following a flood and then falling off individuals' cognitive radar in the following years. In this article, we provide new evidence of salience exploiting a hurricane cluster impacting Florida that was preceded and followed by periods of unusual calm. Utilizing residential property sales across the state from 2002 through 2012, our main estimate finds a salience impact of ?8%, on average. The salience effect persists when we base estimation only on spatial variation in prices to limit confounding from other simultaneous changes due to shifting hedonic equilibria over time. These effects range from housing prices decreases of 5.4–12.3% depending on the year of sale. Understanding flood risk salience has important implications for flood insurance and disaster policy, the benefits transfer literature, and, more broadly, our understanding of natural disaster resilience.

他山之石——助学贷款的国际经验借鉴

中国从1999年开始推行国家助学贷款制度，到2004年12月底，已实际发放贷款80多亿元，享受贷款的学生超过数百万人。但是自从助学贷款制度推行以来，商业银行面临了巨大的风险和损失，实施助学贷款效果较差。助学贷款在美国以及日本已开展多年，积累了丰富经验，在贷款品种、担保方式和还贷机制上都已趋于完善。因此，借鉴国外助学贷款成功运作模式，对于完善我国贷学金资助工作将大有裨益。     

中国对世界经济的影响到底有多大?

2005年以来,西方舆论对中国经济的评论很多,有许多言论一反过去大谈中国威胁论的态度,为中国经济大唱赞歌。法国《回声报》副主编伊兹拉莱维奇2月份发表了一部《当中国改变世界的时候》的著作,立即上了畅销书排名榜,法国的主要报刊都刊登了这本书的摘要、书评和相关辩论。美国《新闻周刊》5月份发表了一组有关中国的文章,称21世纪为“中国世纪”。英国《经济学家》杂志8月份发表了几篇有关中国的文章,称中国掌握着世界经济的关键。中国经济真会决定世界经济的未来吗?这一片赞扬之声中有多少是中国经济的实际影响,有多少是夸张成份?中国经济…
