High‐Resolution Melting (HRM) of Hypervariable Mitochondrial DNA Regions for Forensic Science

Forensic strategies commonly are proceeding by analysis of short tandem repeats (STRs); however, new additional strategies have been proposed for forensic science. Thus, this article standardized the high‐resolution melting (HRM) of DNA for forensic analyzes. For HRM, mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) from eight individuals were extracted from mucosa swabs by DNAzol reagent, samples were amplified by PCR and submitted to HRM analysis to identify differences in hypervariable (HV) regions I and II. To confirm HRM, all PCR products were DNA sequencing. The data suggest that is possible discriminate DNA from different samples by HRM curves. Also, uncommon dual‐dissociation was identified in a single PCR product, increasing HRM analyzes by evaluation of melting peaks. Thus, HRM is accurate and useful to screening small differences in HVI and HVII regions from mtDNA and increase the efficiency of laboratory routines based on forensic genetics.     

新时代下我国各地区对劳动力的吸引力问题研究

新时代下我国劳动力转移环境发生了显著变化,人们对劳动力的认识、劳动力供需状况及不同地区对劳动力的态度等都与之前有很大不同。在这种情况下,本文认为影响劳动力迁移的因素主要包括地区经济发展实力、公共资源聚集能力和未来发展潜力等三个。在此基础上,本文建立了一个二级指标体系,以此为基准,对各个省级区域对劳动力的吸引力问题进行了研究。结果发现,整体而言,北京、上海、天津等直辖市和浙江、江苏等主要经济发达省份依然位列吸引力最强省份的行列,而大多数中西部地区吸引力依然不足。     

对山西实现共同富裕道路的探索

山西是个落后省份,实现共同富裕须从以下三方面着手推进行业结构调整,为山西实现共同富裕提供坚实的物质基础;就业为民生之本,积极探索就业与再就业的途径与方法;继续搞好扶贫开发工作,彻底消除山西的贫困地区和国家级贫困县.     

The Impact of Gravity-Weighted Knowledge Spillovers on Productivity in Manufacturing

This paper tests for localized knowledge spillovers from out-of-state innovations in U.S. manufacturing from 1977 to 1997. The source of these spillovers is innovations categorized into six technologies based on U.S. patent classes and patent data. Using a gravity-weighting for out-of-state innovations, knowledge spillovers are found from mechanical technologies and drug and medical technologies for a broad group of manufacturing industries. Innovations from chemical-related technologies are found to generate spillovers for the Chemical and Allied Products Industry and for the Transportation Equipment Industry. Additionally, specialization of production at the two-digit Standard Industrial Classification of industry level is also found to increase state-level productivity in manufacturing.     

Digital Knowledge Exploitation: ICT, Memory Institutions and Innovation from Cultural Assets

There has been considerable recognition of the regional embeddedness of the knowledge-based economy and its uneven geographical incidence, with mainly urban or metropolitan areas being the crucibles of knowledge-intensive activities. Drawing from recent research conducted analysing cultural industries, the paper explores how the knowledge-based economy can be built upon, focussing on the value afforded by regional cultural diversity which offers a means of economic development and growth to peripheral regions.     

关于促进欠发达地区人才流动的思考

人才是一个国家经济和社会发展的重要战略资源,更是经济欠发达地区摆脱贫困、实现跨越式发展的关键。人才流动无论是在国家之间还是地区之间,都是加快人力资本积累进而促进经济社会发展的一个重要机制,是市场经济发展客观规律的必然要求。本文分析了欠发达地区人才流动的重要性及影响人才流动的不利因素,提出了促进欠发达地区人才流动的建议,即以经济结构转变吸引人才,以高质量社会服务水平支持人才流动,以政府政策导向引导人才流动。     

加强民族地区思想政治工作,促进西部大开发——云南省双江县勐库镇思想政治工作调查分析

民族地区的思想政治工作是当前西部大开发中民族地区获得发展的先导和保证。云南省双江县勐库镇思想政治工作的实况从一个特定的侧面反映出 ,近年来民族地区思想政治工作已得到加强 ,但总体上看 ,与西部大开发对思想政治工作的要求仍有距离 ;同时还反映出 ,思想政治工作是经济工作和其他一切工作的生命线 ,与经济发展息息相关。勐库镇思想政治工作的成绩与不足及其原因 ,相当程度上提示了当前加强和改善民族地区思想政治工作应如何来进行     

论统筹城乡资源配置与地方政府层级改革

统筹城乡经济社会发展,就要调整公共资源配置方式,做到公共资源配置权下移至县域,公共服务统筹权上移到省和中央政府。省直管县能有效调动和发挥县级政府的积极性,促进城乡协调发展。当前改革条件已经成熟,要在分析问题基础上分类指导改革,转变政府职能,明确省、县政府职责重点,下放权力,以事权确定财权,合理核定县的机构设置,缩小省级政府管理规模和幅度,创新市制,调整和完善垂直管理体制。     

Understanding the survival of post-Communist corruption in contemporary Russia: the influence of historical legacies

Corruption is widespread throughout the former Communist states, and it is particularly severe and entrenched in Russia. Despite the fact that Russia's contemporary corruption has recently become a subject of analysis, there is, however, no study that has addressed the role of the Communist legacy in the development of various aspects of corruption. This paper contributes to the debates through, first, disentangling the complex phenomenon that is corruption, and focusing on its three aspects: supply, demand, and the attitude of the population. Second, the paper also contributes to the literature on modern corruption by explicitly focusing on the role of the historical legacy in these different aspects of corruption. The study is based on several rich data-sets on corruption and on an original data-set compiled to measure the percentage share of Communists in various regions of Russia in the last decades of the USSR (1970s–1980s). The analysis presented in the paper uncovers different roles of the Communist legacies across the development of various aspects of corruption. By doing so, the paper contributes to the literature on historical legacies in general, on Communist legacies in particular, as well as to the broader literature on the causes of corruption in transitional societies.     

西部民族地区人口、资源与环境的可持续发展

我国西部民族地区战略地位重要,它的发展对整个国家的经济和社会发展有着举足轻重的作用。从2000年开始的西部大开发战略实施以来,整个西部地区发生了翻天覆地的变化,城市化进程加快,工业化迅速发展,生产总值在全国经济的占比越来越重。经济的发展带来日益严峻的环境问题,尤其是在西部民族地区,由于其特殊的自然地理条件和社会历史原因,环境问题的处理成为其在追赶经济的过程中不可忽视的一环。
