中国—中亚新丝绸之路经济发展带构想

新丝绸之路交通走廊的初步建成,对进一步推进中国与中亚区域经济合作、实现新丝绸之路从“交通走廊”向“经济发展带”的转型提出了新要求、创造了新空间。新丝绸之路是实现经济快速增长和关联带动作用为目的的中国—中亚跨国带状经济合作体。目前,中国—中亚各国已进入经济快速增长期,新丝绸之路的交通走廊初步建成,经济发展带的资源、产业和城市等支撑条件现已初具规模。合作建设新丝绸之路经济发展带,将为中国和中亚国家更好地参与经济全球化,最大程度地化解全球化风险,实现民族经济健康发展提供机遇。     

东盟东增长区的发展与引资成效

自20世纪90年代初以来,东盟次区域经济合作非常活跃,先后出现了新加坡、马来西亚柔佛和印尼的廖内群岛等组成的"新柔廖增长三角",又被称为"东盟南增长三角";印尼、马来西亚、泰国相邻部分组成的"东盟北增长三角";文莱、印尼、马来西亚和菲律宾相邻部分组成的"东盟东部经济增长区(简称东盟东增长区)"等.这些由东盟各国自愿组成的各种增长三角已成为东盟进行合作的重要形式,促进了东盟各国间经济联系和相互合作,带动了贸易和投资的发展.本文选取东盟区域内最大的、最年轻的东盟东增长区,分析其带动资本流动的效果,探讨其发展成效.     

Peaceful and Sustainable Development? Middle-Management Entrepreneurship and Transnational Competence in China

With deeper integration into the global economy and expanded penetration by multinational firms and other nonChinese actors following accession to the WTO, skills in bureaucratic entrepreneurship are not likely to be sufficient by themselves to bring about China’s sustainable development. In today’s interdependent and highly competitive trade, economic-cooperation, and resource-limited environment, sustainable development requires that subnational managers also possess transnational competence in collaborating with, negotiating with, and transforming foreign counterparts. However, survey research among Chinese executives based in Shanghai revealed that only a small proportion of the reporting current and future managers recognized the growing importance for China of an interculturally competent workforce. Without increased attention to enhancing the transnational competence of government and state-enterprise managers, peaceful and ecologically sound development will be difficult to sustain given the demands of multinational production chains, global resource constraints, and the challenges involved in managing transnational relations in the interest of China’s long-term economic progress.

Competitive Liberalization,Competitive Imperialism,and Intellectual Property

Aggressive pursuit of free trade agreements (FTAs) and customs unions (CUs) by major and minor trading powers alike challenges the conventional wisdom in favor of such pursuit – competitive liberalization. An equally plausible explanation for an active bilateral and regional trade agreement policy, one which effectively de-emphasizes multilateralism, may be competitive imperialism. The protection and enforcement of intellectual property rights is one area in which new provisions, going beyond multilateral rules, are being negotiated and written into FTAs and CUs. Such provisions may yield insights into which characterization of bilateralism and regionalism – competitive liberalization or competitive imperialism – is more apt.

“上海合作组织”框架下的中国与中亚国家金融合作目标及途径

金融合作是“上海合作组织”各国经济合作的重要领域,也是实现区域经济一体化的前提条件。在金融合作尚处于初级阶段的情况下,确定合理科学的金融合作目标,探索切实可行的金融合作途径,对于推动“上海合作组织”的金融合作进程具有十分重要的意义。根据《上海合作组织成员国多边经贸合作纲要》的原则,“上海合作组织”框架下的金融合作应分阶段进行,目标规划也应该划分为近期、中期和远期三个阶段。当前的工作重点是,积极推动成员国之间双边或多边的功能性金融合作。合作的具体进程要采取“双轮驱动”策略:既要开展以银行业务和功能完善为特征的金融合作;又要开展以金融组织和机制创新为特征的金融合作。     

试论上海合作组织面临的困境

上海合作组织成立以来，已在解决历史遗留边界问题，打击恐怖分子和“三股势力”，维护中亚的安全和稳定，以及推动区域性经济合作方面取得了显著的成绩。但自身也存在许多的矛盾和困难，在对外关系上也面临许多挑战，如何解决这些问题成为各方关注的焦点。     

关于入世后加强上海市外来流动人口长效管理的思考

入世后的上海外来流动人口管理机制,必须满足劳动力要素市场化配置和人才资源自由流动的要求;另一方面,又要结合上海的实际情况,对人口总量予以一定的控制。     

International institutions and market expectations: Stock price responses to the WTO ruling on the 2002 U.S. steel tariffs

Many scholars assert that international institutions have little power to enforce laws, punish offenders, or force compliance. Others stress that international institutions are important actors, specifically in the regulation of international trade. In this paper, I show that the recent trade dispute over U.S. steel protection provides us with a critical case to evaluate the role of the World Trade Organization in settling trade disputes and specifically stabilizing expectations of market actors over future steel policy. I argue that stock prices can serve as an important tool in answering these questions. In an empirical analysis using daily steel stock prices, I find that during the 2002 WTO steel case, the WTO dispute mechanism helped market actors stabilize expectations of future trade policy.

全球化视野下的中国农民问题

中国的三农问题引起了越来越多的关注,中央政府希望通过农业补贴、减少税费等措施提高农民收入。但是与20世纪80年代中国农村不同,中国农民已经处于全球化的影响之下,这种影响已在农民就业、农业生产组织和农业生产三个方面充分展示。因此,我们必须站在全球的角度来看待中国的农民问题。
