BRICS is an important force in the global economy, and the progress of the BRICS countries' trade facilitation level has an important impact on the global trade environment. This paper conducts an in-depth study of the dynamic changes in BRICS trade facilitation from 2013 to 2022, and uses an extended gravity model to analyze the specific impact of this change on China's exports using cross-border e-commerce. The results show that although the BRICS countries have made some progress in trade facilitation, the overall level still needs to be improved, and there are obvious differences among member countries. However, the improvement of trade facilitation among BRICS countries has undoubtedly brought significant positive effects to China's exports using cross-border e-commerce.展开更多

Against the backdrop of globalization and digitalization, cross-border trade has become one of the important pathways for many MSMEs to achieve growth and competitive advantage. Firstly, the paper outlines the concept and characteristics of cross-border MSMEs, as well as the analysis of their operational environment in the context of globalization, including political, economic, social, technological, environmental, and legal factors. Secondly, the paper proposes operational strategies for cross-border MSMEs, including international market selection and positioning, cross-border marketing strategies, supply chain management, cross-border financial management, and cross-border risk management. Finally, the paper summarizes the importance of effectively implementing these strategies for cross-border MSMEs to seize international market opportunities, reduce operational risks, and enhance competitiveness and profitability.展开更多

The emerging city regions in England can be regarded as a prime test of what the need for optimal territorial scope and enhanced coordination needs. The aim of this paper is to examine the emerging new forms of territorial governance in the light of the "piecemeal" approach of reforms launched by the post-2010 Conservative Liberal Government. We argue that the creation of city-regions is an organic part of the new territorial paradigm; an important element of which is an integrated and functional approach that intersects public administrative borders. Since 2010, the uniformed regional model has been replaced by primarily ad hoc, informal, and flexible approaches. The successive governments placed the bigger cities and its hinterland at the centre of English devolution, but wished to implement them in varying forms of "deal-making" as a means of decentralization, encouraging solutions tailored to local requirements and opportunities, and retaining the fundamental characteristics of the "asymmetrical devolution". However, in terms of regional governance, the relationship between the new and old regional configurations has seen the creation of a much-debated, malleable framework which, during the process of Brexit could generate new, further interpretations, narratives, and practical solutions展开更多

文摘With the rapid growth of the global digital economy, cross-border e-commerce, as an emerging form of trade, has gradually become a powerful engine to promote the development of global trade. BRICS is an important force in the global economy, and the progress of the BRICS countries' trade facilitation level has an important impact on the global trade environment. This paper conducts an in-depth study of the dynamic changes in BRICS trade facilitation from 2013 to 2022, and uses an extended gravity model to analyze the specific impact of this change on China's exports using cross-border e-commerce. The results show that although the BRICS countries have made some progress in trade facilitation, the overall level still needs to be improved, and there are obvious differences among member countries. However, the improvement of trade facilitation among BRICS countries has undoubtedly brought significant positive effects to China's exports using cross-border e-commerce.

文摘Cross-border data transmission in the biomedical area is on the rise,which brings potential risks and management challenges to data security,biosafety,and national security.Focusing on cross-border data security assessment and risk management,many countries have successively issued relevant laws,regulations,and assessment guidelines.This study aims to provide an index system model and management application reference for the risk assessment of the cross-border data movement.From the perspective of a single organization,the relevant risk assessment standards of several countries are integrated to guide the identification and determination of risk factors.Then,the risk assessment index system of cross-border data flow is constructed.A case study of risk assessment in 358 biomedical organizations is carried out,and the suggestions for data management are offered.This study is condusive to improving security monitoring and the early warning of the cross-border data flow,thereby realizing the safe and orderly global flow of biomedical data.

文摘Answers to challenges in a changing environment highlight the need to work with a more flexible sense of geography, developing institutional reforms in delivering public services. The emerging city regions in England can be regarded as a prime test of what the need for optimal territorial scope and enhanced coordination needs. The aim of this paper is to examine the emerging new forms of territorial governance in the light of the "piecemeal" approach of reforms launched by the post-2010 Conservative Liberal Government. We argue that the creation of city-regions is an organic part of the new territorial paradigm; an important element of which is an integrated and functional approach that intersects public administrative borders. Since 2010, the uniformed regional model has been replaced by primarily ad hoc, informal, and flexible approaches. The successive governments placed the bigger cities and its hinterland at the centre of English devolution, but wished to implement them in varying forms of "deal-making" as a means of decentralization, encouraging solutions tailored to local requirements and opportunities, and retaining the fundamental characteristics of the "asymmetrical devolution". However, in terms of regional governance, the relationship between the new and old regional configurations has seen the creation of a much-debated, malleable framework which, during the process of Brexit could generate new, further interpretations, narratives, and practical solutions
文摘Wine tourism as an alternative form of tourism is developed in rural areas with significant wine production.But rural areas are usually not characterized by dynamic local economies.Therefore the contribution of wine tourism to regional development is important.In the region we will focus on the present paper,i.e.,the countries of Greece and Bulgaria,where the tradition in viticulture and production of quality wines is long.Especially in the cross-border area of Greece-Bulgaria,wine production is very remarkable.The project“VineSOS-SOS for endangered traditional vine varieties”implemented and funded by the Program“Cooperation Program Interreg V-A Greece-Bulgaria 2014-2020”identified local grape varieties in danger of extinction.In addition,a comprehensive intervention mechanism was formed for greater protection and sustainability of these varieties.The next step after the protection and promotion of these varieties is their utilization for the region with the development of a common wine tourism product for the cross-border area of Greece-Bulgaria.The present research seeks to utilize the results of the VineSOS project to develop a proposal for wine tourism development in the cross-border region of Greece-Bulgaria as a single tourist product.The main hypothesis of our research concerns the investigation and formulation of a strategy for the development of wine tourism in the cross-border region of Greece-Bulgaria based on the rare vine varieties found in the region.The development of this strategy emerges through the study of the international literature on wine tourism and the study of good practices at the international level,as well as through the special features of the cross-border area of Greece-Bulgaria.
