Internal labor markets and the effects of structural change: Job mobility in Korean labor markets between 1998 and 2000

This study examines job mobility in Korean labor markets since the 1997 economic crisis. The rising job mobility in Korea is analyzed by focusing on structural change in labor markets. Using the Korean Labor and Income Panel Study and discrete-time event history analysis, I estimate the job-stabilizing effects of internal labor markets and the effects of structural change on job mobility. The major findings are as follows: First, I found that internal labor markets were weakening between 1998 and 2000. Second, the job-stabilizing effects of internal labor markets on job mobility diminished between 1998 and 2000. Finally, the magnitude of the effects of internal labor markets on job mobility was contingent on the level of structural change. The effect of internal labor markets on job mobility was stronger in turbulent or contracting industries. This effect, however, also became weaker over time. The implications for Korean labor markets are discussed.     

Economic convergence and life satisfaction in the European Union

The issue of convergence or divergence in the European Union (EU) is usually viewed from a macroeconomic perspective, using indicators such as the income per head, the unemployment rate and the inflation rate. Little attention has been paid to the possibility of an associated convergence in ‘well-being’ across countries. Since recent literature has shown that subjective well-being (life satisfaction, ‘happiness’) is significantly affected by macroeconomic variables, it is natural to ask not only whether or not subjective well-being converges, but also, whether, how and to what extent this process is linked to macroeconomic convergence. In this paper we use self-rated life satisfaction elicited in large scale surveys to address these questions. We find evidence of convergence of life satisfaction across the member states of the EU, which can be attributed to a considerable extent to the convergence in macroeconomic conditions. Among the various macroeconomic indicators, the convergence in inflation rates has played a major role for the convergence in life satisfaction.     

唐代城市群发展过程中的经济因素

唐代基本农区经济的繁荣为城市群的形成和发展提供了坚实后盾和有利条件,使得唐城市群由中心向四周迅速扩散,南方经济的崛起带动了江南城市数量的大幅上升、城市地位的显著提高。值得注意的是,由于受到中国封建政治因素的重重重压,经济纽带因素在唐代城市群发展过程中举步维艰,但客观上其作用却日益凸现,并不以人的意志为转移。     

平稳，增长，何者更重要？

 依据Lucas（1987）的理论模型，本文探讨了改革前后中国经济波动与经济增长的福利成本，结果发现：改革前的经济波动不是很重要；但从改革后或整个样本区间看，在合意的参数情况下，中国经济额外增长1%的福利收益要小于消除经济波动的福利成本。这意味着宏观经济波动对中国有着重要意义，中国政府应在保持经济增长的同时，更应关注保持经济的平稳性。     

我国区域金融发展与经济增长的关系研究——基于面板数据的实证研究

运用1980—2004年间相应经济指标的面板数据对我国东、中、西部经济增长与金融发展进行了实证分析,结果表明,中西部地区更多的依靠信贷规模扩张来推动经济增长,而东部地区更多的依赖于金融效率的提升。     

试析日本对南非的经济战略

在经济全球化的国际背景下，日本对外经济政策一直顺应国际形势的发展变化，在实施亚洲战略的同时，又高度关注非洲。这对于一个资源极其缺乏的日本而言，是非常重要的。日本经济的发展需要大量进口诸如铂、锰、钴、钒等稀有矿产，而这些矿产主要盛产于非洲，尤其是南非，其稀有资源的储量居于世界前列。为此日本在经济战略上一直关注南非。两国经贸关系虽然经历了两次世界大战、世界经济危机和国际社会对南非制裁的洗礼、以及当今国际社会对南非稀有金属市场的关注和争夺，但两国一直保持着良好的发展势头，南非在日本的经贸关系的重要地位也逐渐凸现出来。特别是进入2I世纪以后，日本已将确保稀有金属列为国家能源及资源战略的重要一环。日本与南非的战略贸易关系也变得更为密切。     

长江经济带城市综合竞争力及空间分异

长江经济带横亘我国东中西部三大地带,是我国经济最发达的一个流域经济带,在我国区域空间发展战略中占据极为重要的地位,城市经济发展是长江经济带发展的主体内容.通过对长江经济带所在41个城市的综合竞争力及构成进行定量模型分析,可以得出城市综合竞争力的总体分布及空间分异状况,并据此提出优化长江经济带城市发展的若干具体建议.     

The robust economic statistical design of the Hotelling's T2 chart

ABSTRACT

Economic statistical designs aim at minimizing the cost of process monitoring when a specific scenario or a set of estimated process and cost parameters is given. But, in practice the process may be affected by more than one scenario which may lead to severe cost penalties if the wrong design is used. Here, we investigate the robust economic statistical design (RESD) of the T² chart in an attempt to reduce these cost penalties when there are multiple scenarios. Our method is to employ the genetic algorithm (GA) optimization method to minimize the total expected monitoring cost across all distinct scenarios. We illustrate the effectiveness of the method using two numerical examples. Simulation studies indicate that robust economic statistical designs should be encouraged in practice.
