权力监约机制研究

权力腐败乃不绝于史的一大政治顽疾。人类长期与之争斗的经验性总结之一就是权力监督制约理念之确立和相应机制之设置。在近现代社会 ,人民主权是权力监约的法理基础。人民主权在实现过程中表现为自治权和他治权两大形态 ,其中 ,自治权对他治权的作用构成了权力监约机制的核心。在我国正在展开的政治改革中 ,权力监约机制应贯彻变单向集中型为网络分散型的创新取向 ,方能有效地遏制权力腐败     

李觏与佛教

李觏佛教思想具有双重性，既有排佛的一面，也有容佛的一面。排佛主要表现在两个领域，一是以经济建设、财富积累和社会秩序为内容的物质领域，一是儒家礼治伦理领域；容佛主要表现在对佛教某些教义、佛教教化功能的肯定。李觏佛教思想的基本内容及其特点，是颇有启示的。

中国货币供给的内生性与货币政策分析

从我国经济的短缺、过剩或转轨形态来看 ,我国的货币供给呈现很强的内生性 ,因此 ,货币政策应采取需求性的货币调控模式。相应地 ,货币政策的中介指标应选择利率而不是单纯的货币供应量。同时 ,利率改革的方向也不能单纯地瞄准完全的市场化利率体系 ,而应该是建立一种对利率进行间接调控的利率体系     

日本现代化与中国

日本现代化的成功有诸多因素,中国是其中的一个重要因素。受古代中国文化的辐射和影响,日本形成了对于外来文化的心理和态度:主动学习,全面引进;选择、改造,自成体系。这为日本吸收西方文化提供了认识的基础和思维的方法。近代中国的失败对日本起了警世作用,中国一方面成为日本面对西方列强侵略的屏障,另一方面又成为日本侵略的对象,对中国的掠夺促进了日本资本主义的发展。     

Simple detection of outlying short time series

Sets of relatively short time series arise in many situations. One aspect of their analysis may be the detection of outlying series. We examine the performance of standard normal outlier tests applied to the means, or to simple functions of the means, of AR(1) series, not necessarily of equal lengths. Although unequal lengths of series implies that the means have unequal variances, that are only known approximately, it is shown that nominal significance levels hold good under most circumstances. Thus a standard outlier test can usefully be applied, avoiding the complication of estimating the time series' parameters. The test's power is affected by unequal lengths, being higher when the slippage occurs in one of the longer series     

Inference for the measurement of poverty in the presence of a stochastic weighting variable

Empirical applications of poverty measurement often have to deal with a stochastic weighting variable such as household size. Within the framework of a bivariate distribution function defined over income and weight, I derive the limiting distributions of the decomposable poverty measures and of the ordinates of stochastic dominance curves. The poverty line is allowed to depend on the income distribution. It is shown how the results can be used to test hypotheses concerning changes in poverty. The inference procedures are briefly illustrated using Belgian data. An erratum to this article can be found at     

Randomized response techniques for complex survey designs

Singh et al. ([13]) pointed out that the Randomized response (RR) technique proposed by Moors ([9]) is not desirable because it fails to protect the confidentiality of the respondents and they provided two alternative strategies free from the above drawback but limited to SRSWOR sampling only. In this paper, generalization of one of the strategies is provided for complex survey designs, wider class of estimators and for quantitative characteristics. Relative efficiency of the modified strategy is tested through empirical investigations. An erratum to this article is available at .
