老年流动人口就业质量及其影响因素研究

在国家实施新型城镇化战略和积极应对老龄化的社会背景下，探究老年流动人口就业状况，全 面提升老年流动人口就业质量，已成为社会经济转型时期推动高质量发展的迫切任务。研究利用 2017 年全国流 动人口动态监测数据，从职业类型、单位性质、行业分布等方面考察了老年流动人口的就业状况，并探讨了就 业质量指数的影响因素。研究发现：老年流动人口就业呈现出工作时间长、收入少、层次低、环境差等特点； 老年流动人口的就业质量指数低于劳动年龄流动人口且群体内部存在差异；教育经历增加、社会参与增多和非 农户籍会对老年流动人口就业质量产生正向影响，且对受雇和自雇老年流动人口就业质量的影响存在差异。研 究建议：要完善老年人就业服务体系建设，对从业老年流动人口进行“扶智”“赋能”和“扶助”，从而改善 老年流动人口的就业状况，提高其就业质量。     

Dynamics of governance,gross capital formation,and growth: Evidence from Brazil,Russia, India,China, and South Africa

This study investigates the impact of governance index and gross fixed capital formation on the economic growth of Brazil, Russia, India, China and South Africa (BRICS) using annual data from 2002 to 2019. This study employs Fixed Effect Model, Driscoll and Kraay standard error with fixed effect, Fully Modified Ordinary Least Square, Dynamic Ordinary Least Square (DOLS) and Panel Dumitrescu Hurlin Causality test. The study has divided the variables into two models where model I includes the impact of governance index (jointly) on economic growth while model II examines the impact of governance index on economic growth individually. The findings demonstrate that the governance index, gross fixed capital formation, population, control of corruption, and governance effectiveness have a positive and significant impact on economic growth, whereas regulatory quality showed a significant and negative impact on economic growth. Furthermore, regarding the Panel test, we notice the presence of unidirectional causality among the constituent variables. Therefore, this study suggests that the government should encourage economic development in the BRICS countries and move away from outdated ideas and poor institutional quality in favor of a new comprehensive reform to achieve excellent governance, population growth control, labor law changes, and corruption control.
