The countryside and origins of China's reform

China's 30 years of reform have achieved tremendous success and a transformation of the country.Amazingly,however,this grand endeavor began in an anonymous rural village in which the f irst breakthroughs were made.How did China's reform begin in the countryside? Why were the initial breakthroughs made there? What is its significance? This article elaborates on these questions,urging that we should carry out a scientific outlook on development in the spirit of the 17th Party Congress,and steadfastly deepen the rural reform of rural.Research into these issues will help us gain a deeper understanding of the rural reform.

Administrative reforms and the impacts on rural-urban relations in China

New and distinctive regions of economic interaction and growth, known as Extended Metropolitan Regions (EMRs), are emerging in China. This paper will examine the role of the various levels of the Chinese governments and their administrative reforms in the development of one of the urbanising regions in China: the Shenyang Dalian EMR, Liaoning Province. It is primarily concerned with to what extent EMR's spatial growth pattern is influenced by governmental policies and how the changes in administrative boundaries have impacted rural urban relations.

A Study on the Reform of China's Agricultural Administration System

After various reforms,China's agricultural administration system has been changing functions and improving structure,and it has basically met the requirements of agricultural and rural economic development,but in some areas,it can not be adapted to modern agricultural development. Based on the analysis of the necessity of improving agricultural administration system and the problems in current agricultural administration system,this paper comes up with the viable path choice of China's agricultural administration system reform.

Development of disadvantaged position of the farmer in the con-struction of the new socialist countryside in China

Though the farmer is the group with the biggest population in China,they are a disadvantaged group.In the construction of new socialist countryside in China.there are also causes for the disadvantaged group status,which are embodied in many aspects.The status is the important root of many problems of agriculture and countryside in China.Changing the farmers status of the disadvantaged group is the key to constructing the new socialist countryside,deepening the reform in the countryside and realizing the benign social and econontic development in the countryside in China.

Effects of China's Administrative Approval Reforms on Transaction Cost and Economic Growth

China＇s economic growth miracle despite complicated administrative approval formalities prompted us to raise the following question： ls it true that reforming administrative approval will promote economic growth？ Based on our analysis on market entry, we discovered that reforming administrative approval will spur economic growth by reducing transaction cost for firms. Administrative approval may suppress social cost and propel China＇s economic growth; China＇s gradualist approval reforms may indeed propel economic growth by reducing transaction cost for firms. With the data of prefecture-level cities during 2000-2013 and data of companies listed on the SME board during 2010-2014, we tested the effects of approval reforms on economic growth and on transaction cost, and employed instrumental variable and PSM for the treatment of the endogeneity problem - all these tests led to robust and consistent results. Moreover, we discovered that difference in government policy implementation in the approval process is the root cause of corruption and rent seeking.

Taxpayers Fraudulent Behavior Modeling The Use of Datamining in Fiscal Fraud Detecting Moroccan Case

The fraudulent behavior of taxpayers impacts negatively the resources available to finance public services. It creates distortions of competition and inequality, harming honest taxpayers. Such behavior requires the government intervention to bring order and establish a fiscal justice. This study emphasizes the determination of the interactions linking taxpayers with tax authorities. We try to see how fiscal audit can influence taxpayers’ fraudulent behavior. First of all, we present a theoretical study of a model pre established by other authors. We have released some conditions of this model and we have introduced a new parameter reflecting the efficiency of tax control;we found that the efficiency of a fiscal control have an important effect on these interactions. Basing on the fact that the detection of fraudulent taxpayers is the most difficult step in fiscal control, We established a new approach using DATA MINING process in order to improve fiscal control efficiency. We found results that reflect fairly the conduct of taxpayers that we have tested based on actual statistics. The results are reliable.

The Logic Analysis of the External Institutional Financial Organizations of China

Starting from the initial conditions of China＇s financial reform, this article analyzes the reasons of the External Institutional Financial Organizations （the EIFOs） stepping into a tight comer. The financial marginal reform carded out by the authority has no endogenous solution under the initial conditions such as the dominance of state-owned finance, the lack of market basement for interest forming, of real finance price, administrative approval system, and of market basement for financial supervision.

The Emergence of Illiberal Democracy in the European Union:The Hungarian Case

In 2010,the Hungarian government established so-called“illiberal democracy.”Western courtiers have looked on with bewilderment over the past eight years at this political trajectory of Hungary.Some post-Communist countries that were committed to common European values,have already been implementing this illiberal democracy model.The perceived interests of the“nation”are taking centre stage and governments are subject to far fewer checks and balances.They are turning instead towards an alternative social,political,and economic model,in which the cultivation of traditional values and distinct national identities are of paramount ideological importance.This new model is frequently characterised by widespread,systematic state corruption,and an increasingly authoritarian political culture.The paper tries to shed light on the reasons of development of illiberal democracy in the European Union by examining the case in Hungary.Furthermore,the paper defines the price of partially giving up certain principles of liberal democracy,such as checks and balances,political pluralism,economic equality of market constituents,or the rule of law,in return of hoped greater economic and state efficiency.

Tasks and Priorities for Comprehensively Deepening Reform of China’s State Sector of Economy

The Third Plenary Session of the 18th CPC Central Committee ushered in a new chapter of China＇s comprehensive deepening of reform. The basic objective of comprehensively deepening reform of the state sector of economy in the new chapter is to fully integrate this sector with a sophisticated market economic system with the market playing the decisive role in resource allocation. In order to achieve this objective, China is confronted with the four major priorities of adjusting the functions and layout of the state sector of economy according to national mandates, expediting the mixed ownership reform, creating a classified and multi- tiered new system for the administration of the sector, and developing a modern corporate system for SOEs to ensure an efficient micro-level governance mechanism for the sector. （1） The functions of the different types of SOEs should be accurately defined and SOEs should be divided into the three types of public policy SOEs, functional SOEs, and commercial SOEs. This classification forms the premises for reforming the state sector of economy. Based on the functions of the three types of SOEs, the directions and emphases for strategic adjustment should differ as well. （2） The mixed ownership reform should adhere to the methodological principles of combining top-down and bottom-up approaches, implementing pilot programs, and promoting coordinated progress. Practical implementation should ensure fair and standard reform procedures, reform programs consistent with laws and regulations, open and fair equity transfers, as well as fair and transparent internal distributions. The mixed ownership reform of SOEs should introduce the employee stock ownership system and adhere to the principles of compatible incentives, shared growth, and long-term development. Monopolistic sectors should be transformed into competitive market structures to create conditions for the implementation of mixed ownership for SOEs. （3） The new system for the administration of the state sector of economy should comprise three hierarchies： the Commission for the Administration of State Economy at the top level, state capital operation companies or state capital investment companies at the intermediate level and general for-profit enterprises at the bottom level, which administer public policy, functional SOEs, and commercial SOEs respectively. （4） Under the new system for the administration of the state sector of economy characterized by the three hierarchies and categories, the key for perfecting the modern corporate system of SOEs is to establish a differentiated, classified governance mechanism, i.e., different corporate governance mechanisms should be created for SOEs of different functions and roles.

Public Accounting and IPSAS in Portugal： The Accounting Standardization System for Public Administrations

The Accounting Standardization System for Public Administrations （SNC-AP） was approved by Decree-Law No. 192/2015, of September 11 and constituted the new accounting system for public administrations in Portugal, which will take effect from January 1, 2017, although there were pilot entities that are already applying it in the year 2016. The reasons for the approval of these accounting regulations are presented in the approval diploma itself, the existence of a strong fragmentation and outdated accounting standardization for the public sector. This paper intends to analyze the public accounting reform in Portugal based on the SNC-AP and the impacts that it will determine in public institutions in terms of accounting in relation to the previous POC-P regime and sectoral plans as well as the resources involved in the Implementation. Likewise, it is intended to assess whether all public bodies subject to its adoption will proceed to its implementation on January 1, 2017, as planned. For this purpose, the data available on this subject will be used, in particular those of the Directorate-General for the Budget of the Ministry of Finance.

综合行政执法改革过程中的多维结构变迁与能动者策略

推动执法权属地化与综合化是夯实基层政权建设的重要一环,但在政策实践中,并不必然带来治理效能的提升。事权下放后,基层治理结构的实质性变革如何形塑执法主体的行为策略,以提升事权承接的有效性,是亟待回答的重要议题。文章从“结构—过程—功能”的视角出发,对一个街道综合行政执法体制改革进行系统考察,构建理解多维结构变迁中能动者策略生成的分析框架。研究发现,在改革过程中,综合执法部门所嵌入的横向结构在权力、责任和资源维度发生系统性变迁。执法主体在基层治理结构所设定的规则约束与行动空间中,基于复杂性和概率性两个维度,划分四种类型的执法任务,并能动地创设动员式、裁剪式、扩容式等执法策略,衔接再配置的结构性要素与复杂外部事务治理环节,从而有效回应“块块”运作规则和事权下放的内在要求。

“新华盛顿共识”与美国农政体系变动趋向

“新华盛顿共识”是一份美国国家战略宣言,其中蕴含的战略导向必然会渗透到美国国内外政策的各个方面。下一步,美国农政体系将更多朝着强化自身力量(美国自己称之为“进攻性措施”)的方向发展,具体策略可能包括启动农业高级研究与发展计划、构筑生物育种领域的“小院高墙”及提升农村发展的重要性,对此,中国应该做出一系列战略预置。美国农产品贸易政策导向仍然是提升竞争力、扩大出口,短期内不构成重大冲击,中国甚至可以将之作为拉住美国与之开展博弈缠斗的一个策略筹码,但长期策略上必须把提升农产品竞争力作为重要战略支点。一个比较紧迫的任务是加快种业的制度型开放,以抵御生物育种领域可能出现的“小院高墙”式封锁。同时,从加快追赶超越、建设农业强国的角度讲,美国在科技体制、生物育种和农村发展方面的政策是值得认真借鉴的。

组织惰性的纾解:高校去行政化改革的治理逻辑

去行政化改革是推进高校高质量发展的重要任务和使命。作为一种固化于高校治理结构之中的运作模式与消极行为,组织惰性的层次组合主要围绕体制性的要素而存在,具体贯穿于管理体制的形成、发展和变革过程之中。由于教育资源具有外部性特征,下级组织结构面对科层制的行政压力时,往往理性地采用“组织外形化”的应对策略。当高校既有的管理程序、结构和惯例不能适应公共组织变革的压力时,纾解组织惰性就成为提升高校管理效率的关键一环。从高校去行政化改革的困境归因来看,组织惰性的文化要素构成了高校去行政化改革的“软环境”,外部性压力奠定了高校内部运作的制度性困局,因此要打破固化的社会身份与组织形态。具体来看,要充分发挥党领导集体的先导地位,稳步有效地推进高校去行政化改革,筑牢高校治理文化的基础作用,彰显战略规划的统筹价值,进行依法科学的治校,提升高校的高质量发展水平。

普鲁士改革研究的意义、方法和问题

19世纪初的普鲁士改革开启了普鲁士—德国通向现代的大门。改革的成果既是德国的遗产,也是欧洲的共同遗产。改革激发了一代代历史学家强烈的研究兴趣,成为德国历史研究的经典话题。普鲁士改革史研究的范式经历了种种转变,但其关注的核心问题一直是改革与德国历史连续性的关系、改革的思想基础,以及如何评价改革的成功与失败。对普鲁士改革的历史学考察,不仅是为未来的改革研究提供新的思路和方向,更是为了使人们对改革所引发的一系列重要问题做出更加深入的学术思考。

Climate change, migration, and regional administrative reform： A case study of Xinjiang in the middle Qing Dynasty(1760–1884)

Based on historical records of extreme climate events and population densities in Gansu and Shaanxi, and information on climate change, populations, new cultivated cropland, and administrative system reform in Xinjiang, this study explores the interaction between climate change, migration, and regional administrative reform in the middle Qing Dynasty. The results showed that the surge in population migration from Gansu and Shaanxi to Xinjiang during 1760–1820 was caused by extreme climate events(droughts and floods) and population pressure in Gansu and Shaanxi. During 1760–1880, the climate in Xinjiang was unusually cold and humid, which was highly conducive to abundant regional water resources. This provided favorable conditions for farmland irrigation and further promoted agricultural cultivation, population growth, and town development within this region. Additionally,the interactions between climate change and the above-mentioned social factors, which acted as driving forces, spurred the reform in the administrative system of Xinjiang whereby the military administration system was transformed to a province administration system. Through this reform, the Qing government managed to restore peace and stability in Xinjiang. This study contributes to a better understanding of climate-related population migration and enhances our knowledge of the impact-response chain between climate change, ancient social developments, and political coping strategies, especially in regional administrative reform.

城市社区去行政化改革的事物、职能和组织维度

近年来,去行政化一直是基层治理改革的主题。部分地方政府探索了“居站分设”“撤街强社”等模式,但由于缺乏综合性,单一线索的改革难免陷入困境。现有文献从国家社会关系和社区职能分类等视角探索去行政化改革,但由于未能全面纳入社区治理的影响因素,因而和社区治理实践存在一定的脱节。在利用事物、职能和组织逻辑的框架透视改革历程后发现,缺乏彼此配合的单一逻辑改革效果有限。住房制度改革和物业服务的市场化开辟了行政控制外的新空间,却面临业主组织支撑力度不强的难题。职能分类和准入制为社区去行政化提供了前提,但缺少组织关系改革的配合,行政性事项仍然会渗透组织边界进入居民委员会。居站分离改革为去行政化提供了组织依托,但由于缺乏系统性思维而出现了分殊。三重逻辑框架和对改革历程的分析启示,未来的去行政化要避免单一逻辑的事物职能改革或者组织改革,坚持“事物职能分类、居站分离和培育居民自治”三策并举的复合型改革,继续梳理制定社区事物职能分类目录,结合目录清单改革城市的社区居站关系,聚焦相关利益和治理环节培育居民委员会自治能力。
