By creating a competitiveness framework and a system of heterogeneous indicators, this paper investigates the competitiveness of China and the US in terms of current status, historic change and global environment. Our research led to the following findings: core factors determine the level of competitiveness for China and the US; the national competitiveness of both countries is evolving towards structural homogeneity; and China and the US lead most countries in many common areas. China has the potential to overtake the US in competitiveness in the future. We suggest that China increase its competitiveness by promoting its advantages, addressing its weaknesses and focusing on core areas.展开更多

We have arrived at these findings: market opening spurs entry and exit of large numbers of non-state-owned enterprises (non-SOEs) and facilitates dynamic competition; through the stimulation effect of competition, entry and exit push TFP growth on the part of enterprises; through the resource reallocation effect, entry and exit promote growth of the aggregate TFP. However, results indicate that the resource allocation efficiency remains very low in capital-intensive industries where the government intervenes a lot. To conclude, promoting open competition is significant to the growth of industrial sectors 'productivity.展开更多

文摘Firstly, this article simply introduces the meaning of decline industry and some points should be paid attention to when understand the meaning. Secondly, it is pointed out that the reason of aid to decline industry is the irreversibility of production factors' allocation: assets of special-purpose, labor barrier. Finally, some methods are introduced to aid decline industry.
