农民组织化的国际比较及其启示

农民组织化作为农业现代化的一项重要内容,已经成为世界性的经济现象。发达国家农民组织化历经漫长的历史进程,日趋成熟。特别是其农业专业合作社覆盖面广、技术力量强、服务功能综合化,为农业的发展和农民的增收发挥着不可替代的作用。发展中国家的农民组织化体现了政府主导型的显著特征,并在实践中逐步走向规范。农民组织化的国际比较揭示出:农民组织化是中国农业经济市场化和农业经济增长方式集约化的必然选择;中国农民组织化过程中必须十分重视农民专业合作社的健康发展;各级政府在农民组织化过程中既不能缺位,也不能越位。     

For fraud,look under ‘serious and organized crime’

ABSTRACT

The UK government’s response to fraud cannot be disentangled from its broader ‘serious and organized crime’ (SOC) strategy. In order to explore whether fraud should—in public policy, criminal justice and law enforcement terms—be seen primarily as an SOC issue, there is a need to consider questions about whether or not ‘SOC’ is a sensible object of policy-making in the first place. Several arguments in favour of an SOC policy are identified in the paper. However, the notion of an overarching SOC policy is problematic for three reasons. First, SOC is a fundamental misrepresentation of reality, which does not correspond to a real social problem. Second, SOC policy can limit the development of more problem-specific crime strategies, Third, the ‘SOC’ label can negatively transform how social problems are perceived over the long term. If fraud is to be better understood and dealt with, it may therefore be necessary to extract it from its current inclusion within wider SOC strategy.     

The effect of violent crime on sector-specific FDI in Latin America

ABSTRACT

This article looks at the impact of violent crime on FDI into Latin America and the Caribbean during the 1996–2010 period. FDI is disaggregated into primary, secondary and tertiary sectors and three variables related to violent crime are used: homicides, crime victimization and organized crime. Controlling for institutions and the traditional determinants of FDI, we find that the impact of crime on FDI depends on the sector and types of crime considered. Higher homicide rates are associated with less FDI in the secondary sector while organized crime reduces tertiary sector FDI. Crime victimization has a robust significant negative impact on the tertiary sector and in some estimations of the secondary sector. Crime has no impact on primary sector FDI. Our study highlights the need to continue efforts to decrease crime as we show in our analysis that crime has a negative effect on FDI in the secondary and tertiary sector.     

发展现代物流增进粮食安全

粮食安全是一个动态的概念,中国的粮食安全应在粮食的数量、质量、生产能力、区域安全和应急供应能力等方面有所体现。目前,从整体上看,我国不存在严重的粮食安全问题,这与我国粮食物流的快速发展有密切关系,但我国粮食物流还存在着粮食跨区域流通不畅、运输方式落后、物流组织化程度低等问题,应大力推广散粮运输方式,建设散粮物流节点,建立跨省散粮物流通道,确定粮食供应应急调控体系,走专业化与通用化结合的道路,从高端物流入手增强粮食的现实流通力。     

Accountants’ hybridization and juridification: a critical reflection on the fight against organized crime

Policy-makers and regulators are increasingly focusing on fighting organized crime. Preventing criminal organizations infiltrating an economy involves multiple groups of professionals operating in complex regulatory environments. This paper looks at whether the current regulations for the management of assets seized from organized crime are adequate. The focus is on the Italian setting, and the research included interviews with accountants, judges and police officers involved in the management of seized entities. The results have application worldwide.     

Industrial policy, competence blocs and the role of science in economic development

Government is studied as supporter of science and of the transformation of scientific discoveries into new technology and firm formation. The importance of scientific discovery outside academe is recognized as is the experimental nature of the transformation process entailing frequent business failure. Competence bloc theory is used to understand the minimum set of actors with competence needed for the incentive structure to be complete and the risk of losing the winners minimized. Competence bloc analysis also helps clarify the theoretical foundations of industrial policy and useful roles for science parks. I find that to succeed as a catalyst for industrial competitiveness park management should be less concerned with science and technology and more with the economics of the transformation process.     

Participation to the public life and becoming organized at local level in Romani settlements in Izmir

There are more than 20 million Romani residents in many countries around the world. Due to social and economic reasons, many Romanies do not declare their ethnic origins; therefore, it is not possible to obtain any exact figures from official records. Romanies may have a preference of not defining themselves openly as “Romanies”. However, it is thought that they are distinguished from non-Romanies with their unique behavior and speech. Actually, physical features cannot be used as a definite distinctive feature in identifying Romanies. As a matter of fact, the first Romanies who had entered Europe were identified by their dark skin color and black hair, whereas today, it is possible to see Romanies with light skin and hair color. Romanies and music are often considered together; they have trained numerous accomplished musicians.
