This paper examines the impacts of demographic dividend on economic growth by using Error Correction Model and time series data from 1978 to 2008. The model incorporates variables representing structural change and institutional transition. Results show that fixed asset investment has the greatest influence on China＇s economic growth, followed by technological progress, institutional transition, and structural change. The impact of the demographic dividend is significant, but it has fewer shares to explain economic growth. Thus, in the future, with gradual disappearance of the demographic dividend, China needs to rely more on investment growth, technological progress, structure change and institutional transition.展开更多

The complete and systematical description of various business activities in enterprises, quick response to business changes and the demanding adjustments are achieved with the conformation of the dynamic enterprise model platform and the utilization of the dynamic enterprise system model. Mass customization production is truly used in the implementation and development of ERP software.展开更多

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.展开更多

The arrival of CIC has further heated up debate regarding sovereign wealth funds （SWFs） and their potential implications for global financial markets. This is because, in carrying out its investments, CIC can tap into China＇s huge official foreign exchange reserves, which by April 2008 had surged to US$1.76tn. CIC＇s initial working capital of US$2OObn makes it the fifth largest SWFs in the world today. This article seeks to analyze CIC＇s investment strategies, as well as their potential economic and political implications for global as well as US financial markets.展开更多

These theories are considered in the context of issues arising in evidential adjudication, including： the ＂Mirror of Evidence,＂ truth, the probability of proof standard, the choice between a notion of pursuing 100-percent certainty in adjudication and that wrongful acquittals are better than wrongful convictions, and the statutory proof doctrine comparedwith the system of free proof. Finally, the article presents the framework of and methods for drafting provisions of procedural evidence of the People＇s Court.展开更多
