Health economists' views of health policy

This article reports the views of a national survey of U.S. health economists on a series of questions ranging from mergers among health care providers to the profits of pharmaceutical manufacturers to fundamental health care reform. We find a high degree of agreement on issues of fact but considerable disagreement on issues that depend on values. Additional research may help to resolve some remaining disagreement about issues of fact but may do little to resolve disagreement over values. Results from this fall 2005 survey are compared with those from surveys conducted in 1989 and 1995.     

期货交易的若干法律问题

<正> 期货交易是商品经济高度发展的必然产物,其特有的套期保值功能、防止市场过度波动功能、节约商品流通费用功能以及促进公平竞争功能对于发展我国目前日益活跃的商品流通体制具有重要意义。近年来,我国的期货交易有了很大的发展,但是由于缺乏相应的立法,各地各行其事,使得期货交易处于无法可依的状态,且过度投机行为盛行。目前,加强期货交易的专门立法极为必要。本文意图对期货交易的若干法律问题进行探讨,以供立法者参考。 一、期货交易的法律性质问题     

高素质产业工人队伍建设发展的实践路径分析

中国制造的转型升级离不开一支高素质的产业工人队伍。改革开放以来,我国产业工人队伍伴随着经济社会的深刻变革而发展壮大,从业结构日趋多元,产业工人队伍素质提升面临诸多挑战,高素质技能人才比例不高的现实也客观制约了我国工业强国战略的实施。从世界工业强国成熟的发展经验来看,职业教育培训是培育高素质产业工人的制度路径。我国应充分借鉴这些有益经验,深化职业教育培训体制机制改革,加大资源投入,创新教育培训机制,提升产业工人队伍素质,进而为建设工业强国提供强有力支撑。

Fragmented control: Governing contentious labor organizations in China

How does an authoritarian state govern contentious civil society and what are the effects on grassroots mobilization? This article theorizes the relationship between repression and mobilization by examining the case of informal labor organizations in South China that threaten social stability. Findings based on 18 months of ethnographic fieldwork inside these organizations suggest that the central state's mandate to maintain social stability is refracted through the interests and capabilities of local agencies. This results in “fragmented control”: divergent, even conflicting, forms of state governance over civil society. Local authorities work at cross‐purposes by simultaneously repressing, co‐opting, and neglecting underground organizing. Fragmented control generates political uncertainty on the part of activists and induces them to engage in “censored entrepreneurialism”—a set of tactical adaptations characterized by a mixture of self‐censorship and entrepreneurial experimentation.     

当前东北亚安全困局及其“病灶”探析

2016年以来,因朝鲜第四次核试验及美韩宣布在韩国部署"萨德"反导系统,东北亚固有的安全困境更加突出,并引起相关国家及国际社会的进一步密切关注。就当前而论,东北亚安全困境具体表现为朝鲜在进行第四次核试验后,其核武器开发继续"跃马扬鞭";美韩以朝核威胁为由加强驻韩美军实力,包括不顾中俄强烈反对,决意在韩部署"萨德"反导系统;日本在进一步倚美的同时,趁势拉拢韩国,强化对华敌视政策,致使中日关系频现紧张;美国一方面以应对朝核威胁为由而加强其在东北亚的军事力量和"前沿部署",另一方面又极力拉紧美日韩同盟,其在东北亚遏制中俄的态势更趋明朗。东北亚安全局势持续紧张的深层次原因:一是由于东北亚国家间存在复杂的领土领海及历史纠葛,二是朝鲜半岛南北长期对立,三是日本在历史认知及其与东北亚邻国领土领海分歧等问题上长期采取顽固立场,四是美国搞"亚太再平衡",利用东北亚国家间的固有矛盾从中渔利,企图通过对华进行"局部遏制"而长期维持其在东北亚的同盟体系及霸权。未来东北亚安全困境是继续加深、激化还是逐步淡化,取决于上述深层次原因的演变方向。
