中国农业上市公司竞争力评价实证研究

农业经济是国民经济的基础,农业上市公司则是农业发展中的方向。本文选取了我国沪深两市证交所50家农业上市公司作为样本公司,运用因子分析法对样本公司的竞争力进行综合评价和分层评价,并对评价结果进行分析。综合评价结果表明,农产品加工行业的农业上市公司综合竞争能力较强,而农副产品和食品饮料行业竞争力相对较弱。进一步分层评价结果表明,综合竞争能力较强的农业上市公司,生存竞争力和发展竞争力却并不一定都强。     

我国产业竞争优势转型在大数据环境下的新研究

大数据时代不可逆转的到来,昭示着产业竞争优势出现新的转型契机。通过合理化大数据使用态度,并结合我国产业发展的实际状况,找寻出大数据库建设滞后,存在严重的外部依赖性、大数据的知识产权保护意识和手段不足、人才队伍建设缺乏顶层设计等诸多阻碍大数据促进产业竞争优势转型的桎梏。由此提出,建立服务产业竞争的独立大数据体系是获取竞争优势的全程保证,这就需要厘清独立大数据体系的建立基础、标准和作用域。最终通过大数据与物联网和智慧城市联动发展,使中国在新一轮产业竞争优势转型中夺得先机。

Rethinking the Porter Hypothesis: The Underappreciated Importance of Value Appropriation and Pollution Intensity

The impact of environmental regulation on the competitiveness of firms and industries remains a hot topic. Since the formulation of the Porter hypothesis, scholars from different research areas have tried to confirm or deny it. However, despite a vast literature engaging this debate, it remains unclear whether and under what conditions the hypothesis could be considered valid. We believe that this is due to the need to consider some additional factors. The aim of this review is to propose additional and significant themes, namely value appropriation and pollution intensity, to be considered when examining the impact of environmental regulation on the innovation and profitability of firms. Results show that the validity of the Porter hypothesis cannot be proved in any condition, but at the same time, there are additional factors that have a relevant influence on that construct, which can lead to a validation or rejection of the hypothesis.     

Fighting your friends? A study of intra-party violence in sub-Saharan Africa

ABSTRACT

This article focuses on a less visible and less studied type of political violence, namely violence that occurs within political parties. We use new, district-level data to compare the temporal and spatial dynamics of intra-party violence to those of general election violence across selected sub-Saharan African countries, including both democracies and autocracies, from 1998 to 2016. Relying on cross-national and sub-national analyses, we show that intra-party violence follows a unique pattern. First, unlike general election violence, intra-party violence peaks prior to election day as it is often sparked by individual parties’ candidate nomination processes. Second, low levels of competitiveness – typically theorized to reduce the risk of election violence – increase the risk of intra-party violence on the sub-national level. Thus, dominant party elections do not necessarily see less election-related violence than hotly contested elections. Rather, violence may be pushed from election day to intra-party competitions. If we neglect the study of violence within political parties, we thus risk underestimating the threat of election violence and misdiagnosing its causes.     

日本服务贸易国际竞争力的实证分析

随着知识经济时代的到来,落后的服务贸易日益成为日本经济发展的障碍。本文利用服务贸易国际竞争力指标体系,对自1997年以来的日本服务贸易国际竞争力进行了评价,发现日本1997年贸易政策的变革在一定程度上推动了日本服务贸易的发展,日本服务贸易出口增长优势明显,国际竞争力略有提高,但相对于其他发达国家而言,日本的服务贸易国际竞争力整体水平仍然相对较低,有待进一步提高。     

基于因子分析的陕西电子信息制造业竞争力评价

基于竞争优势、比较优势、核心竞争力等理论,该文构建了由实际竞争力、潜在竞争力、产业供需结构、产业环境4个方面24个指标组成的电子信息制造业竞争力模型。以2007-2009年统计数据为依据,采用因子分析法对东、中、西部18个省份的竞争力进行了实证比较研究。结果表明：电子信息制造业竞争力可划分为产业发展混合因子、产业要素环境因子、产业经济效益因子、产业转化与创新能力因子和产业成长潜力因子五大综合因子。陕西综合竞争力得分较低,产业经济效益和产业转化与创新能力因子得分最低,而产业成长潜力因子得分则相对较高。最后,立足产业基础,以及新兴战略产业培育、新一轮西部大开发和产业梯度转移,提出相应发展对策建议。

The Consequences of Battleground and “Spectator” State Residency for Political Participation

This study uses pooled NES and state-level turnout data from 1988 through 2004 to assess whether a participation gap is emerging in the United States between the residents of battleground and non-battleground states in presidential elections. The analysis finds that Electoral College (EC) participatory disparities are more likely to occur in voting and meeting attendance than in donating and political discussion. Moreover, it suggests that such disparities are more likely to occur when presidential elections are nationally competitive. The study also demonstrates that when participatory gaps do occur they are the result of a surge in participation among battleground state residents—not of citizen withdrawal in safe states, as many EC critics contend.
