Local governments compete to declare for higher-leveled and large-scaled economic regions to obtain more economic resources and policy support in the way of policy game. The author argues that the regionalization chaos is attributed to the reason that the present theoretical support for economic regionalization overemphasizes the economic growth brought about by the economic regionalization but ignores the effect of transaction cost, which leads to constraint loss on the economic regionalization theory analysis framework. Then, the introduction of economic regionalization analysis framework based on the conflicts between scale expansion and transaction costs would establish equilibrium conditions to set up a moderate scale development for economic regions. The author hopes that the acceptance of this framework into the economic regionalization decision-making system would give guidance for making more appropriate regionalization decisions.展开更多

It should be considered on two important points about the history of modernization of Republican Turkey. The first of these is mentalities and ideological attitudes of modernizing elites. The emphasis to be made is to actually point to an opposition: Republican bureaucracy, in other words, the Kemalist elites, believed that progress in the sense understood by the French revolutionaries, positivist ideas, and secular point of view, on the other hand refused to tradition, namely Ottoman-lslamic past/background. Secondly, the Kemalist bureaucracy followed a specific application of the statist economic strategy. The state on the one hand has made investments using its own resources on heavy industry, established monopoly on certain products, on the other hand has followed liberal policies in order to create a national bourgeoisie. In addition, it cannot resolve/transform land ownership regime in favor of landless peasants. The turning point in the economic development of Korea was the military government of Park Chong Hee. The main policy during the 20 years of government was self-sufficient national economy. A presidential central industrial planning board (EPC) was responsible for the planning of all new investment areas and provided policy coordination among related ministries. Government could control the allocation of all financial resources through nationalized commercial banks. Economic planning by government included resource allocation, setting export targets for big family holdings, selective support of strategic industries, and successful private companies. So, government played an important role in the accumulation of capital in the hands of selected loyal new bourgeoisie class, big family holdings (chaebols), which helped the succession of national development projects. The government used nationalism and moderated Confucius values as a means of creating developmental spirit. Anti-industrial teachings in Confucianism has been changed by Western values to form a new development-oriented work ethics, but core teachings like paternalism, hierarchical order in groups, emphasis on education, harmony, collectivism were strengthened by national education. Government policies and modified cultural elements caused an able and willing labor force and committed nation for overcoming poverty, strengthening Korea's economic position in the region.展开更多

It plays an important role in the development of the local government and an important part of the government human resource management. Since China began to implement its government performance management, it has obtained some initial results. But it is still in the exploratory and improvement stage. Because a lot of problems arise in the actual operation process, so theoretical research and practice experience need to be further improved. Therefore, analyzing the local government perfornaance management problems and exploring strategies to improve the performance management are currently the objective requirements of the socialist market economy construction and governance reform in China and will have great significance.展开更多
