欧盟保险法的统一进程

在欧盟,以宪法性法律文件为基础,通过三代保险指令,也包括正在形成的第四代保险指令,欧盟的单一保险市场正在逐步形成.但相对于欧盟的保险监管制度来说,保险合同方面的调和则严重滞后.在这一领域,目前法律的发展仅局限于对保险合同冲突法的调整.这种状况导致了保险服务自由的目标难以实现.为了改变这种局面,欧盟的相关机构进行了有益的探索.其中的关键问题在于,欧盟应为各成员国提供统一的保单持有者的保护标准.顺应这一要求,最好的办法是颁布有关欧盟保险合同的实体法.我国作为世贸组织的一员和保险法尚不完善的国家,对于其中的动态应给予足够的关注.     

The policy response to COVID-19 pandemic and its impact on the equity market sentiment: The Indian experience

We examine the dynamics of the impact of the evolving policy response during the COVID-19 pandemic on the equity market sentiment in India. We operationalise our study by examining the India VIX, the fear gauge of the Indian equity market as an indicator for the market sentiment, and the country level Government Response Index of the Blavatnik School of Government, Oxford University as an indicator for the policy response. The relation is examined through the Markov-switching model using high-frequency daily data from January 30, 2020, to May 31, 2021. The evidence suggests that the policy response has a positive impact on the market sentiment when the market is fearful. Further, the evidence suggests that both the high-fear state and the low-fear state of the market sentiment given by the model are short-lived indicating heightened volatility and possible speculation during the ongoing pandemic in the Indian equity market.     

Policy Failure in the Triangle of Growth: Labour Market,Human Capital,and Innovation in Spain and Italy

This article focuses on the Italian and Spanish models of growth and analyses labour market, human capital and innovation policy reforms since the mid 1990s. The comparison with France and Germany shows the constraints that have hindered the rise of institutional complementarities and the competitiveness of the two Mediterranean countries already before the introd uction of the euro and the outbreak of the 2008 crisis. The analysis highlights both similarities and structural differences between Italy and Spain and demonstrates the long-term institutional conditions that explain why the economic breakdown has had such a deep impact on the two countries.

Networks and labor market entry – a historical perspective

This paper discusses how recruitment practices have changed over time. Networks and contacts are more important today for labor market entry than was the case in the latter half of the twentieth century. There may be two explanations for this: the short-run explanation and the long-run explanation. The short-run explanation derives from fluctuations in unemployment. When unemployment is high, competition for every vacancy is tougher and networks become more important for the job seeker. This has been the case in Sweden since 1991, when unemployment increased to new levels not experienced since the 1930s. In the long run, there has been a change in recruitment practices due to institutional change. A clear pattern is that the importance of social networks has increased, while the significance of public institutions (i.e. the Public Employment Service) has decreased.

构建适应市场经济的招商引资运行机制

传统的招商引资运行机制是以政府为主导由政府部门一把抓的机制,在历史上发挥过积极作用,但在市场经济条件下,这一机制存在明显缺陷。适应市场经济要求,又具有中国特色的招商引资运行机制,从总体上讲就是“政策引导,企业招商,企业开发,部门服务”。其具体形式包括:市场化招商机制,完善的服务机制,便捷的信息传递机制和公正、高效的仲裁机制。     

赖特的阶级理论及其价值——兼评改革以来我国的社会结构研究

当代西方一些马克思主义学者不满意于流于社会表层结构分析的阶层分析模式,在坚持马克思主义阶级分析核心理念的基础上,运用社会学和统计学的实证方法,试图将阶级分析方法和阶层分析方法结合起来,重构阶级分析的一般理论框架。尤其是他们虽然充分注意了是否拥有“组织资产”和“技术/资格证书资产”在社会和组织分层中的重要作用,但仍然把所有权关系作为社会结构分析的首要变量。这些理论和实证研究的新成果,对于观察和分析现阶段我国的社会结构有重要的理论借鉴意义。
