基于个性化需求的产品竞争供应链结构选择

基于"制销分离"与"定制一体"两种结构选择,构建个性化产品供应链处于非竞争与竞争环境下的博弈模型,在引入一个实际案例的基础上,运用算例仿真比较分析两种运营模式下的供应链运作策略和盈利差异。结果显示：与制销分离结构相比,个性化产品供应链选择定制一体结构,有利于匹配产品个性化制造、提升产品个性化水平和市场需求、增加供应链的期望收益;个性化产品供应链选择制销分离结构时,适度的批发价格激励能够提升产品个性化水平、更好满足消费者个性化需求、改善供应链的运营绩效,分销商适度让利加大批发价格激励力度可显著促进产品个性化制造互动、提升产品个性化水平;竞争将消减个性化产品供应链的运营绩效,但选择定制一体结构可显著提升竞争力。     

社会学民族志的力量:重返早期社会研究的田野工作

自20世纪70年代以来,社会学民族志在田野工作和叙事复兴中与传统人文学汇聚,显著扩展了自己的学科边界。但是,这种扩展并没有解决社会学民族志在深度的经验发生和强烈的理论诉求之间遭遇的紧张。对于这种紧张,本文主张再访早期社会研究的田野,即19世纪末期到一战之前的若干典型研究,从中反思早期社会学田野工作是如何在“直接经验”的倾向中完成类型化,以及如何在这个经验感获得的同时改变对社会世界的道德想象。早期社会学的田野工作的力量之一不在于以规范的诉求压制经验感,而是以独特的情感结构连接经验的观察和道德理想的重生。由此,我们不仅需要反思诸如社会调查到社区研究这样的简单思路,更要重新理解理论史上所谓的“进步主义式”的道德本身。这一工作对重新认识早期社会研究和今天的社会学民族志都具有意义上的准备。     

恩格尔定律的悖论情形及其解释

在学术界对恩格尔定律普遍达成共识,并主要关注恩格尔系数外部影响因素的背景下,本文对共识性的恩格尔定律提出悖论情形,从恩格尔定律与需求收入弹性的本质性关系出发,运用数理推导等定性定量方法对悖论情形进行了验证。然后,引入收入分解理论的份额思想,运用收入来源结构的面板数据,采用混合固定效应模型和随机效应模型,对恩格尔定律悖论情形内部机理进行分析,得出了支持恩格尔定律悖论情形的分项收入作用机制。     

Supply Chain Strategies and International Tax Arbitrage

What motivates the geographic footprint of the supply chains that multinational firms (MNFs) deploy? Traditional research in the operations and supply chain management literature tends to recommend locations primarily based on differentials in production costs and the ramifications of physical distance ignoring the role of taxation. MNFs that strategically position parts of their supply chains in low‐tax locations can allocate the profits across the divisions to improve post‐tax profits. For the profit allocation to be defensible to tax authorities, the divisional operations must possess real decision authority and bear meaningful risks. Generally speaking, the greater the transfer of risk and control, the larger the allowable allocation of profit. These transfers may also create inefficiencies due to misalignment of business goals and attitudes toward risk. We model these trade‐offs in the context of placing in a low‐tax region a subsidiary that oversees product distribution (as a limited risk distributor commissionnaire, limited risk distributor, or fully fledged distributor). Our analysis demonstrates that the MNF's preferences regarding the operating structures are not necessarily an obvious ordering based on the amount of risk and decision authority transferred to the division in the low‐tax jurisdiction. We derive and analyze threshold values of the performance parameters that describe the main trade‐offs involved in selecting an operating structure. We find some of the optimal decisions to exhibit interesting non‐monotone behavior. For instance, profits can increase when the tax rate in the low‐tax jurisdiction increases. Numerical analysis shows that the Limited‐Risk Distributor structure is rarely optimal and quantifies when each alternative dominates it.     

中国城市商业银行盈利能力影响因素分析——基于50家商业银行的微观数据

基于2009-2015年期间国内50家城市商业银行(城商行)的微观数据,采用动态面板数据模型实证检验了资产负债结构及其他宏微观因子对城商业银行盈利能力的影响。研究结论表明:负债及资产结构对城商行的盈利能力具有显著的影响,一般性存款占负债的比重、贷款占资产的比重均与其盈利水平显著正相关;城商行的资产质量及成本控制水平越高,盈利能力也越强;规模越大并不意味着盈利能力越强,那些规模较小的城商行因为聚焦于中小客户群体、具有更高的定价话语权而能够获取更高的盈利;GDP增长率、货币政策等外部宏观环境并不会显著影响城商行的盈利水平。因此,城商行不应追求单纯的规模扩张而应着力强化资产负债统筹管理,并立足自身资源禀赋及市场定位,走差异化、特色化发展道路。     

The Nature of the Political Reconsidered

I present an immanent, and explanatory, critique of reflections on the nature of politics and of power within political science. I argue that these reflections are problematic, to the extent that they presuppose an actualist conception of the political, and that this is generated by an empiricist way of thinking on the one hand and a constructivist way of thinking on the other. I show how re‐defining politics, power, and the political on the basis of a dialectical critical realist ontology resolves these problems and, thereby, allows us to understand the conditions for social change and the relationship between the political and the economic. My argument has two, important implications: first, that the proposal that those who study politics professionally should celebrate philosophical diversity is dangerous–at least if it makes it difficult to sustain a distinct, emancipatory form of political inquiry; and, second, that the nature of social reality justifies the need both for specialized forms of inquiry, such as politics and economics, and integrative forms of inquiry, such as political economy.     

What Anonymous can tell us about the relationship between virtual community structure and participatory form

As a decentralised virtual community, Anonymous has been characterised by its oppositional tendencies. Helped by a collective persona and horizontal management structure, Anonymous has facilitated a myriad of differentiated agenda. However, we can observe a distinct change in its participatory form over time. So, while Anonymous, more broadly, functions as a virtual community, its means of engagement has shifted from a social movement to a decentralised cell network. This article explores the relationship between these changes, and its evolution as a virtual community. Drawing upon Iriberri and Leroy’s [(2009 Iriberri, A., and G. Leroy. 2009. “A Life-Cycle Perspective on Online Community Success.” ACM Computing Surveys (CSUR) 41 (2): 1–29. doi: 10.1145/1459352.1459356[Crossref], [Web of Science ®] , [Google Scholar]) “A Life-Cycle Perspective on Online Community Success.” ACM Computing Surveys (CSUR) 41 (2): 1–29] life cycle framework, the article maps Anonymous’ development and identifies the structural changes that have led to this transformation in its modes of participation.     

我国区域立法主体制度探析

区域立法在主体构成上是复合的,这与区域类型的多样性有关。当前对我国区域立法之“区域”的界定主要依据两个标准,即经济标准和行政标准。立法主体应包括立法职权主体和立法参与主体,这同样适用于区域立法主体。其中,一般地方立法机关是构成区域立法职权主体的最主要部分,而区域立法参与主体是区域立法主体不可或缺的组成部分。就我国区域立法主体的运作机制而言,区域立法参与主体应该发挥更大甚至主导作用。     

论中国古代小说的典范场景及其结构功能

场景作为诸叙述方式中最重要的一种,是衡量叙事艺术成就高低的一个标准。中国古代历史演义、英雄传奇、世情等各类题材的小说,无论是以语言为表现重心的“文场”还是以动作为表现重心的“武场”,都构设出了具有中国特色审羡风范的场景范型。这些典范场景不但构成了小说的核心趣味场,而且在结构方面也发挥着重要的作用。     

以基督精神重新解读米开朗基罗《创世纪》中上帝形象

五百年来中外学界一直用人文主义观点,把米开朗基罗在《创世纪》中的上帝形象解读成人间英雄,将其画旨归结为歌颂人的创造和伟大。其实,米氏《创世纪》中的上帝形象是对摩西的“烈火”、以赛亚的“长衫君王”和但以理的“银发圣父”等上帝原型的承续和再创,其画旨是表达人的悲郁无助和对神的伟大救恩的颂赞和呼求。
