Business reform outcomes: Why so different?

Post-crisis policy making increasingly focuses on doing business reforms. We argue that the effects of those reforms will be different across countries. To understand the reasons for the reform outcome divergence, we advance a novel firm-size distribution (FSDs) argument. At the center of the argument is the fact that FSDs are different across countries and stable over time. Then, if a given doing business reform induces firms of different size to grow differently, this will produce a variety of reform outcomes across countries. To advance the argument, we set up a tractable general equilibrium (GE) model and study how firms of different size grow after a doing business reform. The model predicts that larger firms will grow faster than smaller firms after the reform. The model predictions are tested on the Enterprise Surveys (ES) data, merged with the Doing Business indicators. We confirm that firms of different size grow differently after a Doing Business reform. Thus, based on the notable differences of firm size distributions across countries, identical reforms to start, operate and close a business will produce a variety of reform outcomes across countries.

延安时期党内政治生态建设理论创新及其时代价值

延安时期,中国共产党的领袖们在党内政治生态建设方面进行了大量卓有成效的理论创新,阐明了党内政治生态建设的内在动力、基本规范、重要途径和根本保障。当前,我们党在全面从严治党过程中,严肃党内政治生活,净化党内政治生态,仍需要从延安时期党内政治生态建设历史经验中汲取营养。     

残疾文化胜任力:一个理论概念的嬗变研究

残疾文化胜任力是残疾研究领域的一项重要议题,为残疾研究开辟了全新的视野。残疾文化胜任力的嬗变过程经历了研究视角的转型、概念内涵的探明、实践目标的定型三个发展阶段。研究视角的转型包括从“同质化”向“文化多元化”的转型,以及从“文化胜任力”向“残疾文化胜任力”的转型。残疾文化胜任力的内涵包括意识胜任力、态度胜任力、知识胜任力和技能胜任力。残疾文化胜任力的实践目标包括观念性目标、机制性目标与能力性目标。残疾文化胜任力对我国残疾人事业高质量发展具有启示价值,并在残疾人工作研究、残疾人工作实务和残疾人工作策略方面具有视角创新、工具创新与思路创新的价值。     

Serious case reviews: The lived experience of Black children

Despite the many high‐profile Black child deaths in England, race as a factor remains a largely underexplored factor of serious case reviews (SCRs). Evidence from analysis of SCRs indicates that race receives limited attention, or is virtually absent. Given that the main function of SCRs is to provide opportunities for learning lessons to improve practice, the way in which issues of race and culture may influence child protection processes for Black children is therefore of critical importance. In this article, we employ content analysis to examine the extent that race and cultural factors are considered in SCRs involving Black children. It is argued that race is often an important factor influencing Black children's experiences of abuse and neglect, as well as their encounters in the child protection system. This article therefore poses two key questions: (a) What questions are asked about race, ethnicity, and culture in SCRs concerning Black children? (b) How did the SCRs extract lessons to be learnt for improving practice to safeguard Black children? By extending the analysis of race and ethnicity in SCRs, this article furthers our understandings of the needs of Black children in the child protection system.     

非物质文化遗产代表性传承人名录制度反思

“非遗”传承人名录制度是我国“非遗”保护的重要手段之一,它在“非遗”保护中发挥了巨大作用，但也存在着不同程度的问题。国家级传承人数量偏少且分布不平衡，传承人的年龄与性别结构也不合理。传承人认定制度的不完善使一些民间艺人无法进入各级名录，传承人名录的分级制度导致传承人被人为阶层化,引发了民间艺人与传承人以及不同级别传承人之间的矛盾，造成一些集体项目无法正常开展活动，传承人的保护工作难以得到群众的有力支持。     

论分享价值原则的文化战略学意义--十八届三中全会《决定》的理论解读

在“五位一体”框架中，探讨支撑国家整体发展战略的基本价值原则，乃是当代中国化马克思主义文化战略学的重要课题之一。中共十八届三中全会《决定》强调“让一切劳动、知识、技术、管理、资本的活力竞相迸发”，要做到这一点，在市场之内的初次分配中，必须让“资本-劳动”分享利润，与此相对应的是一种与“平等”等密切相关的“分享”价值原则。《决定》有关“多渠道增加居民财产性收入”“保障农民公平分享土地增值收益”等重大举措，同样是在市场之内贯彻分享价值原则，而以民生为主的社会建设、以公共服务为主的文化事业则是在市场之外推行分享价值原则的主要方式。全面推行分享价值原则，既有利于坚定地推进新型市场化改革，同时也有利于保障平等、促进和谐、拓展自由，对内可以凝聚社会共识，激发国民创造力，对外则有助于在价值制高点上展现社会主义中国的文化魅力和感召力。     

文学视野下的古栈道文化遗存

连云栈道是古代通行汉中和巴蜀的重要栈道之一,素以恢宏险峻而名驰天下。作为古代的交通要津,它承载着极为厚重的历史文化信息,记录着王朝兴废的更迭嬗变,演绎出一幕幕惊心动魄、可歌可泣的历史活剧,雄杰之士为之折腰,骚人墨客赋咏不绝。或直笔正描,赞叹栈道的奇伟险绝;或托物兴感,展示坎坷不遇的失意情怀;或触景生情,抒发古今变异、世事沧桑、兴亡倏忽的人生感触;或侧写旁点,表现伤时念乱的时代忧患意识,显示出多元的艺术视野。
