全球化背景下的国际间人口迁移研究

国际间的人口迁移与境内迁移有着很大的不同,这些不同包括国际间迁移遇到更多的障碍,受到各国迁移法规和政策限制;迁移者知识和技能是否可以转移到另一社会环境中使用的问题;国家之间语言、文化宗教以及其它一系列差异要远远大于境内区域间的差异。由于国际迁移的这些特点,国际迁移在境内迁移的理论基础上,还要考虑国家之间的法规和政策限制的因素、国家间社会福利之间的差别,以及更注重对非经济因素的考查。目前的全球化和区域一体化趋势对国际的或区域的劳动力市场发展提出了新的要求。     

对立统一和自我否定的关系

对立统一和自我否定的关系问题,是一个直接关系到怎样理解唯物辩证法的体系及其本质的重要问题。马克思的感性学不仅肯定人的主体性,而且揭示人成为主体的条件和过程,即超出目的性本身来反思人的存在。因此,对立统一和自我否定相互依赖,一方并不能仅仅归结为或表现为另一方,它们应当在相互诠释中构成一个解释学循环。     

Revisiting Welfare States. Performance in Reducing Poverty through Longitudinal Multinational Comparison

This article presents the results of a comparative study on the effects of social welfare programs in selected developed countries. Using a fully comparable longitudinal data file from nationally representative household surveys, we estimate the poverty rate and poverty gap before and after social welfare transfers and taxes in order to identify the direct effects of social welfare on poverty. In general, the findings reveal that countries with conservative welfare regimes demonstrate higher poverty performance than do countries with liberal welfare regimes. In particular, the United States lagged behind through all periods under investigation, whereas Germany exhibited the highest performance in poverty reduction.     

外国对华投资的地区分布及其对人口迁移和区域发展的影响

80年代以来,中国的外国投资在区域间的分布呈现出了很明显的地域差别。88%以上的外国投资集中在东部沿海地区。区域间包括开放政策、基础设施、交通及通讯条件以及劳动力素质在内的投资环境差异影响着区域间外国投资分布的差异。同时,区域间外国投资的差异也对区域间发展差异以及区域间的人口迁移产生了很大影响。了解影响外国投资的因素以及外国投资对区域发展和人口迁移的影响有助于制定合理的区域政策。     

Social protection and poverty in Azerbaijan, a low-income country in transition: Implications of a household survey

Using a nationally representative survey, this study examines the performance of social protection in Azerbaijan from the perspective of poverty reduction. Empirical evidence presented suggests that social protection programmes have an important impact on poverty alleviation. However, poverty is still widespread. The findings demonstrate that the current system of social protection has several important limitations. First, a significant proportion of the poor population is not covered by the social protection system. Second, the poor typically receive a smaller share of total benefits than the non-poor. Finally, most social transfers are too small to lift households out of poverty. The current system of social protection in Azerbaijan requires further strengthening. In particular, the government should develop and implement new social assistance programmes specifically directed towards poverty reduction.     

Inference based on progressively censored sample from Pareto population

Abstract

In this paper, we assume that the lifetimes have a two-parameter Pareto distribution and discuss some results of progressive Type-II censored sample. We obtain maximum likelihood estimators and Bayes estimators of the unknown parameters under squared error loss and a precautionary loss functions in progressively Type-II censored sample. Robust Bayes estimation of unknown parameters over three different classes of priors under progressively Type-II censored sample, squared error loss, and precautionary loss functions are obtained. We discuss estimation of unknown parameters on competing risks progressive Type-II censoring. Finally, we consider the problem of estimating the common scale parameter of two Pareto distributions when samples are progressively Type-II censored.
