论我国中央政府债券法律制度的完善（上）

传统的国债概念有待商榷,应以中央政府债券表述。从完善社会主义市场经济体制和建设社会主义法治国家出发,迫切需要完善中央政府债券法律制度。在中央政府债券法律制度中,中央政府债券的发行和交易是需要予以法律规范的重点内容之一。     

企业并购:基于相对交易成本视角的初步研究

科斯提出的交易成本理论可以用于解释商业活动在企业和市场之间的转换,强调了节约交易成本是企业形成的一个重要因素,但却忽略了组织能力亦是制度选择中的重要变量.该文将交易成本的节约和企业组织能力的提高结合起来,从相对交易成本的角度考察并购的成因,一方面用相对交易成本来解释企业与市场的替代关系,另一方面从相对交易成本的变化来探索并购的可预测性.

构建管理学理论范式的经济学方法评析

构建管理学理论范式可以运用多元化研究范式。研究者不仅需要考虑组织层面的角度,而且还应从经济学角度之外的心理认知、社会、政治、法律等多角度进行考察和研究,研究范式的转换为管理学的发展提供了方法论的基础。     

“…and they are really lying”: Clean evidence on the pervasiveness of cheating in professional contexts from a field experiment

We investigate the pervasiveness of lying in professional contexts such as insurance fraud, tax evasion and untrue job applications. We argue that lying in professional contexts share three characterizing features: (1) the gain from the dishonest behavior is uncertain, (2) the harm that lying may cause to the other party is only indirect and (3) lies are more indirect lies by action or written statements. Conducted as a field experiment with a heterogenous group of participants during a University “Open House Day”, our “gumball-machine-experiment” provides field evidence on how preferences for lying are shaped in situations typically found in professional contexts which we consider to be particularly prone to lying behavior compared to other contexts. As a key innovation, our experimental design allows measuring exact levels of cheating behavior under anonymous conditions. We find clean evidence that cheating is prevalent across all sub groups and that more than 32% of the population cheats for their own gain. However, an analysis of the cheating rates with respect to highest educational degree and professional status reveals that students cheat more than non-students. This finding warrants a careful interpretation of generalizing laboratory findings with student subjects about the prevalence of cheating in the population.     

劳动力成本、交易成本与产业结构升级

劳动力成本和交易成本会从不同方向对产业结构升级产生影响。劳动密集型产业或生产环节对劳动力成本比较敏感,劳动力成本的上升会促使这些产业或生产环节外迁,并推动本地企业更多地利用资本和技术替代劳动,从而推动产业结构由劳动密集型转变为资本和技术密集型;知识密集型产业或生产环节对交易成本比较敏感,即使劳动力成本高企,较低的交易成本也会吸引这些产业或生产环节移入,从而增加本地知识密集型产业或生产环节的比重。因此,劳动力成本的提高会推动区域产业结构升级,交易成本的降低则会诱导区域产业结构升级。     

农业纵向分工：服务外包的影响因子测度——基于专家问卷的定量评估

将农户的农业生产经营分为9个环节,基于农业生产环节交易特性与农户行为能力两个层面,测度农业生产环节进行服务外包的影响因子。农业生产环节的交易特性细分为专用性、规模性与风险性3个维度,农户行为能力则由排他能力、处置能力和交易能力3个维度表达。基于专家问卷,借助模糊数学和层次分析方法,对影响因子的权重进行定量评估。结果显示,同样的影响因素在不同的农业生产环节中表现出不同的特征,不同的影响因素在同一个农业生产环节中表现出的特征也有所差异。     

To live an ordinary life: resource needs and additional costs for people with a physical impairment

Disabled people face increased risks of living in poverty largely due to lower incomes and extra resource requirements compared to non-disabled people. This study incorporated the social model of disability with an economic approach to costing to estimate the additional costs required by people with a physical impairment to achieve an adequate standard of living in New Zealand. Budgets estimating the additional equipment, modifications, transport, support and time required to achieve an adequate standard of living were developed and validated through focus groups with community members. The findings suggest that reducing barriers involves substantial costs ranging from NZ$645–$2,348 per week.     

工程项目中社会资本对合理风险分担的影响研究

经济活动总是嵌入在一定社会关系中的,因此,任何一个工程项目风险分担的合理性都应在社会资本的视域下考察与判断.本文通过理论分析构建工程项目中社会资本对合理风险分担的影响模型,并以30个成功建设项目为样本采集到126份有效数据,运用结构方程模型的方法进行实证分析.研究结果表明:(1)风险分担可分解为缔约阶段的风险初次分担和履约过程中的风险再分担,二者之间具有显著的互补与联动关系;(2)社会资本对风险初次分担的完备程度产生显著反向影响,而对事后支持制度产生显著正向影响,且对事后支持制度的总效应相对较大;(3)社会资本对风险再分担的规模与实施效率均产生显著正向影响,且对风险再分担的实施效率总效应最大.本研究有利于引导工程项目交易双方根据社会资本制定更为合理的风险分担方案,从而促使项目成功.
