对当前我国就业问题的思考

就业是“民生之本”。我国就业问题是一个长期面临的基本问题 ,要始终给予高度重视。政府不仅要为扩大就业创造良好的外部环境 ,还要建立以市场调节为基础、以政府促进就业为动力的就业机制。     

改革发展中的劳动就业与工会的维权工作

就业是民生之本。改革以来,中国在劳动就业方面取得了突出的成就,初步形成了市场导向的就业机制。受人口增长的历史影响,中国当前和今后长时期将面临严峻的就业挑战。当前中国就业环境的变化特征是:劳动力供求矛盾突出,"强资本弱劳工"格局日趋明显;就业结构性矛盾严重,弱势劳工群体问题凸显;劳动力流动性增强,劳动关系的安全性下降;城镇失业率迅猛上升,社会保障亟待完善。劳动就业方面的这些变化特征要求今后工会工作应以中华全国总工会提出的"积极促进就业,稳定就业岗位,减少失业"为中心,在新的起点上,以新的思路、新的标准、新的要求实现新的突破,更好地维护职工的劳动权益。     

三角互动:欧盟就业、社保与教育发展的新趋势

根据最新资料,2000年与1998年相比,欧盟劳动就业状况和政策中最大的变化是教育发展-信息社会-高科技、高教育产业的重要意义明显提升.1999年欧盟社会保障政策关注人本理念,立足于采取积极措施促进主动就业,以提高个人生活质量和"被社会吸纳"的程度.上述双重变革使教育发展成为就业-社保-教育互动三角的主变项.人们逐渐认识到,在正在到来的知识社会中适度地拉动教育,可创造一种张力,以缓解就业和社保的压力,这也是实现劳动权和追求幸福生活权利的保证.     

The Future of the European “Social Model” in the Global Economy

This article examines the prospects for European welfare states in the context of globalization. It begins with a critical review of the globalization arguments. While there is some evidence that external constraints make life harder for policymakers seeking positive-sum outcomes, it is the combination of national debt and spending limits, plus domestic tax resistance, that really count in making expenditure-based social and employment policies more difficult in certain countries. In understanding the constraints and opportunities that will shape Europe's welfare future, globalization—crudely understood—is therefore much less influential than many suppose. While EMU has radically diminished national autonomy in exchange rate, monetary policy, and fiscal policy, there are also beneficial consequences for social policy and broader economic management. On the employment and social policy side, initiatives required to match greater flexibility with sustained security are now at the top of the EU agenda, and mechanisms for diffusing best practice across Europe are being put in place. Within this framework, European welfare states must place more emphasis on dynamic equality, being primarily attentive to the worst off, more hospitable to incentive-generating differentiation, and actively vigilant with regard to the openness of opportunity structures.     

日本妇女的M型就业状况问题与对策

M型就业是由于结婚生育而形成的妇女劳动力率的变化,是一些发达国家妇女就业的主要模式,其中以日本最为典型.M型就业模式强化了妇女在发展过程中的边缘化地位,不仅有悖于日本"男女共同参与社会"的基本理论,而且也不利于日本经济和社会的可持续发展.为此,日本政府颁行了一系列促进妇女就业的法律政策,力求通过营造兼顾工作和家庭的良好社会环境来促进妇女就业,收到了积极效果.

Assessing Stability and Change in Criminal Offending: A Comparison of Random Effects, Semiparametric, and Fixed Effects Modeling Strategies

An important theoretical problem for criminologists is an explanation forthe robust positive correlation between prior and future criminaloffending. Nagin and Paternoster (1991) have suggested that the correlationcould be due to time-stable population differences in the underlyingproneness to commit crimes (population heterogeneity) and/or thecriminogenic effect that crime has on social bonds, conventionalattachments, and the like (state dependence). Because of data andmeasurement limitations, the disentangling of population heterogeneityand state dependence requires that researchers control for unmeasuredpersistent heterogeneity. Frequently, random effects probit models havebeen employed, which, while user-friendly, make a strong parametricassumption that the unobserved heterogeneity in the population follows anormal distribution. Although semiparametric alternatives to the randomeffects probit model have recently appeared in the literature to avoid thisproblem, in this paper we return to reconsider the fully parametric model. Viasimulation evidence, we first show that the random effects probit modelproduces biased estimates as the departure of heterogeneity from normalitybecomes more substantial. Using the 1958 Philadelphia cohort data, we thencompare the results from a random effects probit model with a semiparametricprobit model and a fixed effects logit model that makes no assumptions aboutthe distribution of unobserved heterogeneity. We found that with this dataset all three models converged on the same substantive result—evenafter controlling for unobserved persistent heterogeneity, with models thattreat the unobserved heterogeneity very differently, prior conduct had apronounced effect on subsequent offending. These results are inconsistentwith a model that attributes all of the positive correlation between priorand future offending to differences in criminal propensity. Sinceresearchers will often be completely blind with respect to the tenabilityof the normality assumption, we conclude that different estimationstrategies should be brought to bear on the data.     

大学生勤工俭学有关法律问题探析

大学生打工利益受侵害事件频繁发生。对于大学生勤工俭学行为的法律性质从应然和实然角度分别进行分析，大学生具备成为劳动法中劳动者的主体资格，与用人单位存在劳动关系并满足《劳动合同法》非全日制劳动者的条件，大学生的勤工俭学行为应当受《劳动合同法》的保护。《劳动合同法》对非全日制用工的规定，对于保护非全日制劳动者的合法权益迈出了历史性一步，但在保护大学生和非全日制劳动者合法权益上还存在不足。     

谈毕业生就业过程中的“人才高消费”现象

高校毕业生是国家用有限财力培养出来的人才 ,应该充分发挥其在国家社会经济发展过程中的积极作用。毕业生在就业时应按照国家的有关政策合理安排使用 ,做到人尽其才。目前 ,在实际中却出现了“人才高消费”现象 ,我们要认清其产生原因和本质 ,努力实现毕业生的合理安排 ,发挥其在社会主义市场经济建设中的作用。     

从大学生就业诚信缺失现象谈诚信教育

大学生对诚信重要性的认同度高,但在严峻就业形势下,大学生就业中的诚信问题十分突出。诚信观念的树立需要一个长期的过程。教育、引导大学生尤其是即将离校的毕业生树立诚信观念,需要学校、家长、学生本人以及全社会的共同努力。
