Determinates of the competitiveness of provincial forest health care industry in China

Due to the late start of China’s forest health industry,related research is lagging behind,which results in the inability to propose a corresponding path to enhance competitiveness.Based on this,the evaluation index system of provincial forest health industry competitiveness was constructed by using the Porter diamond model,and the Entropy-TOPSIS model is used to evaluate the competitiveness of China’s provincial forest health industry,and the key influencing factors of the forest health industry competitiveness are identified by using the grey correlation analysis method,and the specific promotion path was designed.The empirical results show that the grey correlation degree between related and supporting industries and the competitiveness score of the forest health industry is the highest,which confirms that it is the key influencing factor of the competitiveness of the forest health industry.Therefore,government departments should vigorously promote the integration of cultural tourism,medical care,pension and other related industries with the forest health care industry;enterprises should strengthen the construction of forest health infrastr ucture and supporting facilities to improve the level of forest health services.

Cluster Based Strategy to Improve Competitiveness of Rare Earth Industry in China——Taking Emerging Rare Earth Industry Cluster in Baotou As An Example

China′s rare earth industry has shown its strong competence, but notably this competence is mostly based on the comparative advantages in natural resources and production costs that will not provide a long-term momentum for the growth of the industrial competitiveness. It has become an urgent task now for China′s rare earth industry to improve its competitiveness through adjusting the product structure and enhancing the technological application, to gain much healthier and more sustainable growth in the future. This paper aims to present a new development strategy based on the industry cluster theory to improve the competitiveness of China′s rare earth industry with a case study on the emerging rare earth industry cluster in Baotou. The paper first reviews the cluster theory and explains why it matters to industrial competitiveness briefly, and then proposes a general framework for implementing cluster policies and strategies in practice. Following that, a case to study the emerging rare earth industry cluster in Baotou was presented and a cluster initiative based on the general framework was developed. The objectives of the cluster initiative and the role of government on initiative organizing and cluster upgrading were discussed in detail. In the end, general implications drawn from the case of Baotou were summarized, which try to provide some insights for applying cluster-based strategies to the rare earth industry of China.

Experience from Soybean Industry Development of Main Soybean Producing Countries

Soybean output and trade are mainly operated in America, Brazil, Argentina and China in recent years, especially in America. For China, the import output is number one, and the export output is the forth. For this reason, the soybean industry of China got a huge lash, and the soybean farmers got a large loss, it influenced the building of new countryside construction in China. Both U.S.A＇s soybean output and trade amour are the number one in the world, this achievement should be contributed to U.S.A＇s advanced production ability and its favorable subsidy policies. Contrary to U.S.A＇s large subsidy and cheap loan, Brazil and Argentina raise their soybean output and trade amount by high production technology and ＂untying＂ policies, such as abolishing some unreasonable rules and tax. So if we want to develop Chinese soybean industry and make sure our soybean industry＇s safety, it＇s necessary for us to experience soybean industry development of other countries＇ and improve ours

Government Role in Fostering Emerging Technological Industries:A New Perspective for Industrial Policy Research

Mainstream industrial policy research cannot fully explain how government interventions have helped China’s mobile communications industry catch up with and overtake those of advanced nations.China’s mobile communications industry made breakthroughs in 3G,caught up with advanced nations in 4G,and gained a leadership position in 5G due to the implementation and improvement of a strategy of industrial competition that accommodates mainstream standards and prioritizes the mid-band spectrum based on the integrated“technology,standard and industry”deployment system and swift decision-making.The introduction of a perspective of a strategy of industrial competition may supplement industrial policy research in the following ways:First,when the concerted actions of numerous innovators are important for industrial competition performance,an effective strategy of industrial competition can be devised and overall coordinated by the government provided that is compatible with the catch-up development of emerging technological industries.Second,an industrial policy becomes effective when it is complementary with the strategic factors for long-term industrial performance such as the strategy of industrial competition and avoids serious disruptions to market-based mechanisms.

Why Chinese Exports Face So Many Trade Remedy Actions： An Empirical Study Based on Multi-country and Multi-industry Data

This paper offers a comprehensive analysis of the reasons for the large number of trade remedy actions taken against China. Using a multi-country and multi-industry dataset, the present paper shows that the macroeconomic situation of China＇s partners has a great influence on the probability of trade frictions arising with China. Moreover, the more powerful the industry is, the more likely it is to take trade remedy actions against China. The empirical results reveal that China has been hurt under the operating mechanism of the WTO, and the number of free trade agreements is negatively related to the initiation and approval of trade remedy actions. Basically, the determinants for countervailing and double remedy measures are identical, while they are different from determinants of antidumping measures. Accordingly, strengthening communication with trade partners will alleviate friction between China and its trade partners. Meanwhile, making use of foreign lobbies power, actively integrating into the international trading system and participating in regional trade agreements are effective ways for China to deal with the ＂new normal＂ of trade frictions.

Firm internationalization and cost of equity:Evidence from China

This paper examines the relationship between firm internationalization and cost of equity.We find that firms with a higher degree of international operations have a significantly lower cost of equity,which is more pronounced for firms in provinces with a weak institutional environment or firms experiencing intense domestic competition.Our results are robust after adopting a firm fixed effect model,propensity score matching,difference-in-difference regressions and alternative measurements of key variables.Further,international operations help firms to break through their institutional constraints in the domestic market,which reduces the cost of equity and improves resource allocation efficiency in the capital market.Our paper enriches the literature on firm internationalization and the cost of equity from the perspective of emerging markets.
