打造第三代港口，提高综合竞争能力

随着世界经济的全球化、市场的国际化水平进一步加深，港口作为全球综合运输网络上的重要节点和国际物流链上的重要一环，其竞争也越来越激烈，厦门港应如何在这一竞争中巩固并提升自己的地位？本文认为应找出差距、重点打造第三代港口，实现跨越式发展，全面提升自己的综合竞争能力。     

对宁波发展战略的思考

作者认为 ,宁波的发展应该跳出“三江口”范围 ,即余姚江、奉化江、甬江三江交汇相连的目前的城市中心区 ,加快城市东扩 ,形成特大型组团式城市格局。城市建设要根据宁波滨海、跨江、傍河、枕湖的特点 ,展现亲水特色 ,将宁波建成生态城市。     

寺庙园林造园意匠研究——以宁波天童寺 为例

：寺庙园林作为中国古典园林三大主流类型之一，历 史底蕴深厚，文化内涵丰富，具有重要的研究价值。与皇家 园林的气势恢宏、私家园林的精致细腻不同，基于佛教文化 背景产生的寺庙园林，有着独树一帜的造园特色。以宁波天 童寺为例，从整体布局、相地风水、植物配置、理景艺术等方 面对寺院的“匠心”布局进行分析，从视境、声境、嗅境、味 境和触境五境对寺庙园林造园“意境”进行阐述，总结寺庙园 林造园意匠特征，丰富传统园林文化理论，传承与弘扬我国传 统文化。

Container yard template planning under uncertain maritime market

A yard template determines the assignment of spaces in a yard for arriving vessels. Fluctuation of demand for freight transportation brings new challenges for making a robust yard template when facing uncertain maritime market. A model is proposed for yard template planning considering random numbers of containers that will be loaded onto vessels that visit the port periodically. Traffic congestions and multiple schedule cycle times for vessel arrival patterns are also considered. Moreover, a meta-heuristic method is developed for solving the model in large-scale cases. Numerical experiments are conducted to validate effectiveness and efficiency of the model.     

Co-evolution of the strategic reorientation of port actors: insights from the Port of Rotterdam and the Port of Barcelona

This paper explores changes in the strategic orientation of port authorities and terminal operators towards the hinterland network in the Ports of Rotterdam and Barcelona. Port authorities and terminal operators are economically, institutionally and geographically related organizations. The argument here is that such organizations experience a mutually influential and interactive effect in their strategy over time. The research explores the evolution of the market, institutional and governance forces behind these organizations’ strategic orientation, while acknowledging their interdependence and interrelationship. To that end, it builds a conceptual framework analysing these organizations’ strategies in different points in time. It draws upon firms and port theories to design a co-evolutionary framework, which is later refined with insights gained from an empirical study of the port context.     

Institutional plasticity in public-private interactions: Why Japan’s port reform failed

This study applies the concept of institutional plasticity to analyze institutional change, and investigates why actors are unable to change institutions even when change is apparently necessary. Employing historical institutionalism, the analysis focuses on public-private interactions in the recent port reform in Japan. The study’s findings reveal four limits to institutional plasticity due to the respective roles of key actors – the central government, the local port authority, and business entities – in the process of policy reform. The study suggests that while institutional plasticity may enable variation within an existing developmental trajectory or even creation of an entirely new path, insufficient institutional plasticity constrains the creation of new institutions and inhibits institutional change.     

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.     

Microdata analysis of the consequences of free trade port policy: the case of Iran free zones

ABSTRACT

Creating free trade zones as a policy to motivate new investment and improve the local economic indicators might be of some benefits. Following of this policy in Iranian major port, however, resulted vice versa by aggravating the current account balance that is higher imports and the same horizon diminished export sums. We derive the micro data of trade for the Iranian major Imam port according to code arrangements of harmonic system (HS), which permits the clustering of different goods categories. Then we extracted the sums of survey data for the years before and after Imam port became free trade zone and applied fixed effect difference in difference (DID) method to capture the heterogeneity of unobserved variables. Our control port of analysis was Rajaee port the policy did not implemented. Results show that just as Imam free port’s Current Account Balance deteriorated by increasing import and dampening of export sums.
