The Role and Effects of Efficacy in Socioeconomic Development and Foreign Direct Investment: A Comparative Study of South Korea and Singapore

Abstract

There is a sizable amount of research and explanation concerning the rapid and sustainable development of newly industrialised countries (NIC) in Asia. This article seeks to create a deeper understanding of the relationships between the governmental sector, the economic sector, and the social sector in the Asian political arena. As such, it will explain how policies pursued in selected countries could have impacted the economies of the so-called ‘tiger’ or ‘dragon’ countries. In addition, the study will show how governmental efficacy is connected with socioeconomic development by means of comparing, as exemplars, South Korea and Singapore, in the period 1960–2007. The investigated period experienced heightened socioeconomic development in South Korea and Singapore. Stressing the historical evolution of socioeconomic development, the researcher accordingly focused on social, political, and economic outcomes in their relationship with the factor of macroeconomic stability and the varying amounts of foreign direct investment in the two nations. This study looks to create a deeper understanding of the role of government efficacy and socioeconomic development in an Asian context in which government efficacy and political development and institutions have played important roles in creating stable and continuous social and economic development. This idea of government efficacy and political development has helped to strengthen the capacity of governments to adapt and adjust their political agency’s capability to achieve political goals and sustainable socioeconomic development. South Korea has created institutions that are simpler than complex organisations and may lack autonomy and coherence. In contrast, Singapore has created complex and autonomous institutions with strong coherence. The findings in the outcomes section explain the different historical developments of South Korea and Singapore.     

我国通货膨胀率动态波动路径的结构性转变特征与统计检验

本文运用参数稳定性检验方法研究我国通货膨胀率的动态变化路径,发现我国通货膨胀率序列具有明显的结构转变特征;利用包含结构转变点的最小二乘估计方法,获得了我国通货膨胀率的结构转变点估计和区间估计;结合我国宏观经济运行事实,分析并刻画了具有结构转变特征的通货膨胀率动态过程,准确地给出自1984年以来的两次高通货膨胀区间.     

基于熵理论的供应链稳定性预警分析

本文用熵理论从资源的角度对供应链的稳定性进行预警分析.首先给出了单种资源的熵的计算表达式及其熵值的含义.然后用资源的权重对多种资源的熵进行集结得到供应链的资源熵,再从供应链上下游企业之间供给和需求匹配的角度给出了供应链资源匹配熵的概念及其度量表达式,并将资源熵与匹配熵相结合建立供应链稳定性的预警机制.最后进行了算例分析并提出了资源熵概念对供应链管理的启示.     

利好、利空信息与证券市场稳定性

在考虑中国投资者行为特征的基础上,运用前景理论建立具有有限理性的信息交易者和噪声交易者的动态投资决策模型,通过对模型均衡点的稳定性进行分析并结合计算实验的方法研究利好、利空信息在市场低迷、过渡和繁荣3个不同时期的作用情况及其作用机理.研究结果表明,在市场低迷时期,由于流动性风险过大带来的交易成本大幅增加,导致市场对利空信息的反应大于利好信息;在过渡时期,信息交易者成为调控市场的有效主体,市场对利好、利空信息的反应都是敏感的,利好信息使市场走向繁荣,利空信息使市场走向低迷;当市场处于繁荣时期,由于信息交易者和噪声交易者的交互作用,导致利好信息不但会降低市场的稳定性,还很容易引发大规模的市场波动,而市场对利空信息的反应却不大.研究结果可对市场实施信息调控提供理论指导,以维护中国证券市场长期良好发展.     

吸收能力和网络惯例形成演化视角下的突破性产品创新研究

基于组织间学习过程的演化情境,从吸收能力和网络惯例在组织间的形成过程视角,研究吸收能力、网络惯例与突破性产品创新的关系.通过分析珠三角地区的161家科技型中小企业的样本数据,研究发现:吸收能力和网络惯例对突破性产品创新均有显著正向影响,而网络关系稳定度正向调节吸收能力与突破性产品创新的关系.此外,网络惯例的两个子维度对突破性产品创新的影响存在差异,即行业默契对突破性产品创新有显著的正向影响,而规范接受对突破性产品创新的负向影响不显著.     

寡占市场中自适应动态古诺模型的建立

本文通过引入自适应期望产量的概念,利用现代控制工程理论建立了市场非线性反需求函数下的自适应动态古诺模型。该模型建立的目的是为厂商各生产周期的产量决策提供理论指导。动态仿真结果及实例分析表明,自适应动态模型的稳定状态总趋近于古诺均衡解,该模型能够对现实经济运动进行合理描述,具有动态自适应能力,是厂商制定产量决策的有利工具。     

How do mobile,internet and ICT diffusion affect the banking industry? An empirical analysis

Based on the World Development Indicators data provided by the World Bank, we investigate the effect of information and communication technology (ICT) on the profits and risk of financial distress of the EU 28 banking industry. Specifically, we address the question of whether and how ICT diffusion, adoption and infrastructure (e.g., ATM penetration) affect banking profitability and stability over the period 1995–2015. Our results show that ICT exerts a positive role in improving these performance measures. In addition, we find that overall financial stability in the banking industry is enhanced with the intensive adoption of both IT and financial technologies, which increase the distance to default.     

论和谐社会动态稳定

社会和谐必须以稳定为前提,政治稳定关系到国家健康、有序发展。动态政治稳定是政治体系的连续性和有序性,它包括稳定的政权性质、合理的国家权力结构和有序的政治过程三个层次。研究和分析政治中稳定因素,对于维护政局稳定,构建和谐社会有着重要意义。要保持我国和谐社会的动态政治稳定,需要法理型合法性权威认同,满足民众一定期望要求,保证社会公平与正义,政治参与的有序与法制化,政治体制与行政机构的综合改革。     

浅析钢结构的稳定设计

了解钢结构稳定设计原则和设计特点,可以帮助设计人员在设计。本文在分析钢结构强度与稳定的区别、钢结构失稳的分类、钢结构设计的原则与特点的基础上,进一步阐述了新型结构稳定性研究中存在的问题。     

季节交替下农业废弃物第三方治理稳定性研究

农业废弃物第三方治理是缓解农业面源污染、提升资源再利用率的重要途径,该模式的稳定运营依赖于农业生产者和第三方治理企业的持续参与。受季节交替影响是农业生产的显著特征,构建季节交替下农业废弃物第三方治理演化博弈模型,分析双方参与策略选择,以江西××环保工程有限公司的两个农业废弃物集中处理项目为例进行案例分析。研究表明,农业废弃物第三方治理稳定性受季节交替影响而存在两种周期性变化规律,但具体表现出何种变化规律取决于农业生产者合规处理废弃物与违规处理废弃物成本之间的大小关系;提高农业生产者违规处理废弃物成本、降低双方的参与成本均能有效提升第三方治理的稳定性。建议政府根据周期性变化规律制定针对性的短期政策并与长期政策相结合,利用组合政策推动农业废弃物第三方治理的长期稳定运营。
