国有企业并购重组中政府角色定位的偏差与矫正

在供给侧结构性改革中,国有企业的并购重组与混合所有制改革同步进行,达到优化产业结构、淘汰落后产能的目的。但政府存在角色定位偏差问题,仍有较强的政策指导与干预冲动。在深化供给侧结构性改革进程中,政府应将角色定位于政策指引者、信息中介者、服务提供者及监督监管者,同时强化制度创新,破除阻碍企业并购重组的旧机制,健全完善规章制度。     

Social capital,guanxi and political influence in Chinese government relations

Social capital has emerged as a promising theoretical approach to understanding political influence in the public relations literature. However, the rationale of using social capital to influence corporate government relations in authoritarian societies is indistinct. To remedy this, we integrate Bourdieu’s (1986) and Lin’s (2001) social capital theories to explore how applying a variant form of social capital (e.g., guanxi) might shape corporate government relations in authoritarian China. A multi-method, qualitative approach was employed involving 44 interviews, participant observation and document review. The findings highlighted an underexamined “vertical” dimension of social capital (i.e., links with authority in a hierarchy), which enables corporations to exercise agency over the pre-existing and often vague regulatory environment. This study adds a new perspective to social capital with hierarchical guanxi that enriches our understanding of guanxi-based political influence in Chinese corporate government relations.     

政府与社会公益组织间互动原因研究--以河南省J志愿者协会为例

社会公益组织作为传播正能量的社会团体，是政府与社会组织的公益性的连结点。政府需要公益组织连接社会成员需求，获得社会认可；公益组织也希望得到政府的鼓励，获得公益影响。政府与公益组织良性互动的原因在于政府权威与社会自由之间的平衡。通过研究河南省J志愿者协会的发展现状，阐释了政府与公益组织良性发展的原因是政府职能边界的模糊性、公益组织的目标与政府具有一致性和公益组织必须适应环境的要求。     

Social service purchasing in China: Rationale,features, and risks

As part of a broader program of market reform, China's local governments are progressing an agenda of purchasing child welfare and other social services from the nongovernment sector, primarily to expand capacity and address vast unmet need. This paper draws on current research evidence to explore the approaches to purchasing emerging in China, examining the rationale for purchasing and models of supply, competition, and regulation. While some approaches are modeled on direct service contracting, direct purchasing of social service “posts” is also used, aimed at achieving goals of professionalization alongside service expansion. Overall, the review shows purchasing is helping to rapidly expand service scale and capacity; however, regulatory strategies for managing and mitigating risks to quality and access appear lacking. This highlights the need for further scholarship aimed at developing the robust risk management strategies which are required to support high quality, sustainable provision of purchased services.     

Bias-corrected confidence bands in nonparametric regression

Bias-corrected confidence bands for general nonparametric regression models are considered. We use local polynomial fitting to construct the confidence bands and combine the cross-validation method and the plug-in method to select the bandwidths. Related asymptotic results are obtained. Our simulations show that confidence bands constructed by local polynomial fitting have much better coverage than those constructed by using the Nadaraya–Watson estimator. The results are also applicable to nonparametric autoregressive time series models.     

社会组织承接政府转移职能的优化路径探析

引导社会组织承接政府转移职能,既是实现社会治理体系和治理能力现代化的题中之义,也是以“简政放权”为核心内容的行政体制改革的必然要求。当前社会组织承接政府转移职能处于起步阶段,参与承接行动的社会组织较少;其承接方式主要以定向委托为主。现阶段社会组织承接政府转移职能对促进自身发展、推动政府职能转型、节约行政成本、保障公共服务质量发挥了一定的作用。尽管如此,在承接行动中,社会组织自身仍存在人力资源不足、经费不够、管理不善等问题;而政府仍存在体制机制不合理、放权观不正等问题。如此,推动社会组织加强能力建设与政府更新观念、创新体制机制仍是当下的任务。     

省级政府教育统筹与高等院校体制改革问题

省级政府教育统筹是高等院校体制改革的基本诉求,也是高校治理现代化的重要依托。在其实际运行和不断发展的进程之中,中央政府与省级政府对高等院校的教育统筹权责不明、教育统筹制度本身效力层级较低、教育统筹发展监督评估体系缺失等瑕疵都是制约该制度对高等院校体制改革发挥有效积极作用的现实问题。因此,准确定位省级政府教育统筹,理顺中央政府与省级政府教育统筹权限,完善省级政府对高等院校的综合改革,对于高等院校体制改革具有重要意义。     

地方政府在公共决策中的寻租行为成因分析

社会转型期内,地方政府在公共决策中的寻租行为时有发生,导致公共决策偏离公共性,降低了政府的公信力和合法性基础,对个人、政府以及社会都带来相应的负面影响.文章通过对权力导向因素、制度因素以及利益驱动因素的分析,找出地方政府在公共决策中寻租行为的成因,并提出抑制寻租行为的治理路径.
