Chinese Corporate Governance and Prospects for Reform

A critical element in China's current economic reform program is the creation of modern corporate governance structures in its corporations. Many of China's largest firms are caught between market incentives and political pressures, creating a situation ripe for managerial inefficiency. This article examines the financial and regulatory structures necessary for an efficient corporate governance system to function in China, and it assesses how these structures currently operate in the economy. The article identifies key failures in fostering modern corporate governance practices, which in turn jeopardize central elements of the government's reform program. The article includes a case study of the governance practices of PetroChina Company Ltd, the internationally listed subsidiary of China National Petroleum Corporation. The success or failure of the government's efforts to create proper governance mechanisms will carry important economic and political ramifications for China.

新形势下我国农业补贴政策的思考

本文以我国加入WTO后农业发展的新形势为背景,对我国农业补贴政策的政策制定、实施效果、制约因素和完善途径进行探讨。农业的弱质性和重要性是我国农业补贴政策实施的两大主要根源。新形势下,农业补贴政策发挥增产增收的作用初步显现,但还存在着补贴结构不合理、补贴方式不合理、政策空间利用不充分、管理体制分散、制度和法律保障缺失等制约因素。要充分发挥农业补贴政策的作用,必须在WTO框架内有针对性地完善现有的农业补贴政策,以更好地达到预期的政策效果。

Television News as Political Ritual: Xinwen Lianbo and China’s journalism reform within the Party-state’s orbit

Besides being the most influential television news program with the largest viewership in China, Xinwen Lianbo (Television News Simulcast) also boasts of unique political value in the Chinese media landscape. Each and every change in form the program has adopted since its first broadcast in 1978, has been a reflection of a certain aspect or element of the arch of political reform in the country, and has been widely interpreted as such, thus making it ‘the toughest nut to crack’ in news reform. Throughout its 35 years of history, by striving to represent, maintain, adapt and disseminate the established ideological framework, thus ensuring political reform has progressed at a cautious and gradual pace acceptable to the ruling party, Xinwen Lianbo has proven to be a great example of the construction of political reality by journalistic text on the symbolic level. This article adopts the methodology of new social history with semi-participatory observation as it combs through the evolution of Xinwen Lianbo over 35 years, in an attempt to explore the patterns and paths of Chinese journalistic reform and the factors that have come to shape this journey in the broader context of political reform in China.
