Transformer in navigation: Diverse government roles for open innovation in China's high-speed rail

Based on a longitudinal case study of China's high-speed rail embedded in the emerging economy context, we focus on what role the government plays and how that matters to open innovation (OI) for competitive advantage. By linking the OI literature with the national political institutions literature to motivate our research question, we propose a statist-based OI view to differentiate diverse government roles, investigating how government adopts roles in a combined way to push OI in stages. Our findings suggest that government is an important strategic decision-maker for OI. Specifically, the government plays various roles as commander, protector, cultivator, and intermediator, reflecting state activism derived from national political institutions, to construct institutional-level OI for domestic OI activities, and inbound and outbound OI across national borders. We find government can deliberately and strategically use its diverse roles in a combined way to push OI for competitive advantage through the industrial evolutionary process over time. Our study contributes to the OI literature and integrates the strategic management literature with the study of OI to provide new insights to explain the origins of competitive advantage from the state perspective.     

Journey towards independent living: a grounded theory investigation of leaving the care of Girls & Boys Town,South Africa

The journey out of care and towards independent living is a challenge for many care-leavers. There has been little research into the social processes involved in this care-leaving journey. This paper presents the results of a grounded theory investigation into the care-leaving journeys of nine young men who had, several years previously, been in the care of Girls & Boys Town in South Africa. Working from a resilience perspective, with an ecological emphasis, four central social processes emerged that together explain the care-leaving experiences of the participants. These processes are striving for authentic belonging; networking people for goal attainment; contextualised responsiveness and building hopeful and tenacious self-confidence. These four processes are located within contextual boundaries and at the social environmental interface. The paper presents these processes in detail, drawing on selected narratives of the participants and integrated with additional theory. It is hoped that this paper may contribute to theory building concerning care-leaving processes and enhance youth care practices for youth in care and leaving care.     

关于地方高校学报改革和发展的思考

地方高校学报在全面反映高校科研和教学成果，促进校内外、国内外学术交流方面发挥了重要作用，但还存有“全、散、小、弱”的状况。为改变这种状况，必须以改革求发展：一是走集弱成强和强强合并之路；二是有条件地逐步与市场经济结合。可采取创办联合学报，以有实力的学校为龙头合并小弱学报，实行开门办刊，建立论文评审专家组，实施“名栏工程”等改革措施。     

合并后的高校期末会计报表的合并调整程序与方法初探

为了实现教育资源的优化组合 ,近年来国家对许多高等院校进行了合并、划转和调整。在合并后的高校各校区之间出现大量的拨入、拨出经费 ,往来结算等财务核算工作。从而产生了一项新型的、类似于企业集团的会计工作———期末会计报表的合并及调整工作。本文拟就高校合并后的期末会计报表的合并及调整工作 ,结合笔者在相关业务工作中的实际 ,作一些探讨     

Kernel Estimation of Rate Function for Recurrent Event Data

Abstract.  Recurrent event data are largely characterized by the rate function but smoothing techniques for estimating the rate function have never been rigorously developed or studied in statistical literature. This paper considers the moment and least squares methods for estimating the rate function from recurrent event data. With an independent censoring assumption on the recurrent event process, we study statistical properties of the proposed estimators and propose bootstrap procedures for the bandwidth selection and for the approximation of confidence intervals in the estimation of the occurrence rate function. It is identified that the moment method without resmoothing via a smaller bandwidth will produce a curve with nicks occurring at the censoring times, whereas there is no such problem with the least squares method. Furthermore, the asymptotic variance of the least squares estimator is shown to be smaller under regularity conditions. However, in the implementation of the bootstrap procedures, the moment method is computationally more efficient than the least squares method because the former approach uses condensed bootstrap data. The performance of the proposed procedures is studied through Monte Carlo simulations and an epidemiological example on intravenous drug users.     

商业银行董事会治理的独立有效性研究

根据经济合作与发展组织、巴塞尔银行监管委员会和中国银行业监督管理委员会等组织关于公司治理的相关原则、指引和法律规定,对商业银行董事会的独立有效性进行了综合分析,得出商业银行董事会的独立有效性主要体现在独立董事的独立性,职能委员会的独立性以及独立董事占董事会成员的比例3个方面以及规范的独立董事、职能委员会的产生机制和明确的独立董事、职能委员会的责权利制度是确保商业银行董事会独立有效性基础的结论,并提出中国商业银行董事会的适度规模为11人,其中独立董事占董事会成员的合适比例为50％以上的建议。     

东汉庄园的兴起及其文化意蕴

西汉以自耕农为主体的经济结构到东汉以庄园为主体经济结构的转变 ,客观上形成了汉晋之际社会思潮变迁的重要依托。作为新兴的相对独立的社会经济单位 ,东汉庄园对士大夫的精神世界产生了重要影响。不仅使一部分士人从原有的大一统思想和依附地位中剥离出来 ,而且发展出了较为独立的群体性格、个体人格、思维方式和兴趣取向
