The COVID-19 pandemic has boosted firms’ investments in digital technologies, and digitalization is booming. However, it remains unclear how and when digitalization leads to superior performance. To demystify this phenomenon, we develop a moderated moderation model to investigate the combined effects of digitalization, knowledge inertia, and organizational integration mechanisms on firm performance. Based on survey data from 192 Chinese manufacturing firms with different degrees of digitalization, we find that although digitalization has a positive relationship with firm performance, that relationship is negatively moderated by knowledge inertia. More interestingly, a formal organizational integration mechanism, but not an informal organizational integration mechanism, mitigates the negative moderation effect of knowledge inertia. We contribute to the literature by articulating how knowledge inertia and organizational integration mechanisms jointly determine the effect of digitalization on firm performance. Our study also provides implications for firms to modify their practices to prosper in the digital revolution.
2019冠状病毒病大流行推动了企业对数字技术的投资,数字化正在蓬勃发展。然而,目前尚不清楚数字化如何以及何时带来卓越的性能。为了揭开这一现象的神秘面纱,我们开发了一个有调节的调节模型来研究数字化、知识惯性和组织整合机制对企业绩效的综合影响。基于对192家不同数字化程度的中国制造企业的调查数据,我们发现数字化对企业绩效有正向影响,但知识惯性对这种关系有负向调节作用。更有趣的是,正式的组织整合机制能够缓解知识惯性的负向调节效应,而非正式的组织整合机制则不能。通过阐明知识惯性和组织整合机制如何共同决定数字化对企业绩效的影响,我们为文献做出了贡献。我们的研究也为企业在数字革命中改变其实践以获得成功提供了启示。

As the US-China trade conflict intensifies, high dependence on US and China has been pointed out as a potential risk to the Korean economy. This calls for trade policies including diversification of trading partners and the establishment of a new model for trade agreements suitable to such diversified partners. Meanwhile, the necessity for such policies grows as protectionism spreads globally and trade order changes after the Covid-19 pandemic. Africa and the Pacific (AP) regions, the main areas of interest in this report, have been excluded from Korea’s FTA network despite their high growth potential and strategic significance. Most countries in the AP regions are geographically distant from Korea and mostly underdeveloped, so we have approached the region only in terms of development cooperation. Currently, trade agreements and systems for trade and investment with AP countries are insufficient, and the size of economic cooperation with these countries remains small. However, Africa has high market potential, owing to various factors such as its high population growth, middle-class growth, and transition to digital economy, while the Pacific island countries have abundant fisheries and marine resources, and wield voting power in international organizations. In this regard, it is necessary to build the foundation for cooperation with AP countries in the mid-to-long term. Against this backdrop, this study seeks mid- to long-term strategies to promote trade cooperation with AP countries. First we consider introducing and expanding nonreciprocal arrangements for developing countries in the AP regions, as currently provided to United Nations-defined least developed countries. Then we consider introducing a reciprocal trade agreement, for example, an FTA. As a result, we found that it is necessary to introduce an FTA model suitable for developing countries in the AP regions instead of introducing further nonreciprocal agreements. Based on the results of the study, this paper proposes strategic directions for trade cooperation with the AP regions, and furthermore, provides policy suggestions that should be included in the agreement with those countries.
随着美中贸易矛盾愈演愈烈,对美国和中国的高度依赖被指出是韩国经济的潜在风险。这就要求制定包括贸易伙伴多样化在内的贸易政策,并建立一种适合这种多样化伙伴的新的贸易协定模式。同时,新冠肺炎疫情后,保护主义在全球范围内蔓延,贸易秩序发生变化,这种政策的必要性也在增加。非洲和太平洋地区(AP)是本报告关注的主要地区,尽管具有很高的增长潜力和战略意义,但却被排除在韩国的自由贸易协定网络之外。AP地区的大部分国家与韩国的地理距离较远,而且大多是欠发达国家,因此我们只在发展合作方面与该地区进行接触。目前,中国与亚太国家的贸易协定和贸易投资制度还不完善,与这些国家的经济合作规模仍然很小。但是,由于非洲人口增长率高、中产阶级增长、向数字经济转型等多种因素,非洲市场潜力巨大,而太平洋岛国拥有丰富的渔业和海洋资源,在国际组织中拥有投票权。在这方面,有必要为与亚太国家的中长期合作奠定基础。在此背景下,本研究寻求促进与亚太国家贸易合作的中长期战略。首先,我们考虑为亚太地区的发展中国家引入和扩大非互惠安排,就像目前向联合国定义的最不发达国家提供的安排一样。然后我们考虑引入互惠贸易协定,例如自由贸易协定。因此,我们发现有必要引入适合亚太地区发展中国家的自由贸易协定模式,而不是进一步引入非互惠协定。基于研究结果,本文提出了与亚太地区贸易合作的战略方向,并进一步提出了与这些国家的贸易协议应包含的政策建议。

G. Anwar, Nabaz Nawzad Abdullah
The present research studies the impact of human resource management on the performance of government institutions. In a rapidly changing economic environment, characterized by trends such as, globalization, rising demands of investors and customers, along with increasing products in the market competition, the Government institutions continuously try to progress their performance by minimizing expenses, renewing products and procedures, and improving quality in order to compete and continue in the environment. A quantitative research method utilized to analyze the current study. The Sample Size selected for this study is 240 respondents. The findings revealed that all hypotheses were rejected except fifth hypothesis which stated that ‘’Decentralization is positively associated with organizational performance’’. Thus, it was concluded that decentralization have a positive association with the organizational performance.

How Inductive and Deductive Generalization Shape the Guilt by Association Phenomenon Among Firms: Theory and Evidence 归纳概括与演绎概括如何塑造企业的联想犯罪现象:理论与证据
Pub Date : 2020-10-28 DOI: 10.1287/ORSC.2021.1440

This study advances and tests the notion that the phenomenon of guilt by association-- whereby innocent organizations are penalized due to their similarity to offending organizations-- is shaped by two distinct forms of generalization. We analyze how and why evaluators’ interpretative process following instances of corporate misconduct will likely include not only inductive generalization (rooted in similarity judgments and prototype-based categorization) but also deductive generalizing (rooted in evaluators’ theories and causal-based categorization). We highlight the role and relevance of this neglected distinction by extending guilt-by-association predictions to include two unique predictions based on deductive generalization. First, we posit a recipient effect: if an innocent organization falls under a negative stereotype that causally links the innocent firm with corporate misconduct, then that innocent firm will suffer a greater negative spillover effect, irrespective of its similarity to the offending firm. Second, we also posit a transmission effect: if the offending firm falls under the same negative stereotype, then the negative spillover effect to other similar firms will be lessened. We also analyze how media discourse can foster negative stereotypes, and thus amplify these two effects. We find support for our hypotheses in an analysis of stock market reactions to corporate misconduct for all U.S. and international firms using reverse mergers to gain publicly traded status in the United States. We discuss the implications of our theoretical perspective and empirical findings for research on corporate misconduct, guilt by association, and stock market prejudice.
这项研究提出并检验了这样一种观点,即联想犯罪现象——无辜的组织因与犯罪组织相似而受到惩罚——是由两种不同形式的泛化形成的。我们分析了评估者在公司不当行为实例之后的解释过程如何以及为什么可能不仅包括归纳概括(植根于相似性判断和基于原型的分类),还包括演绎概括(植根于评估者的理论和基于因果的分类)。我们通过扩展联想内疚预测来强调这种被忽视的区别的作用和相关性,以包括基于演绎泛化的两个独特预测。首先,我们假设一个接受者效应:如果一个无辜的组织陷入一种消极的刻板印象,将无辜的公司与公司的不当行为因果联系起来,那么该无辜的公司将遭受更大的负面溢出效应,而不管它与违规公司的相似性如何。其次,我们还假设了传导效应:如果违规企业处于相同的负面刻板印象中,那么对其他类似企业的负面溢出效应将减弱。我们还分析了媒体话语如何培养负面刻板印象,从而放大这两种影响。通过分析股票市场对所有利用反向并购在美国获得公开交易地位的美国和国际公司不当行为的反应,我们发现了对我们假设的支持。我们讨论了我们的理论观点和实证结果对公司不当行为、关联犯罪和股票市场偏见研究的启示。

The Role of National Culture in Financial Literacy: Cross-Country Evidence 民族文化在金融素养中的作用:跨国证据
Pub Date : 2020-06-27 DOI: 10.2139/ssrn.3698656
Kenneth De Beckker, Kristof De Witte, Geert Van Campenhout
This paper examines the effect of national culture on adult financial literacy levels in 12 countries. Contrary to earlier financial literacy studies, our results are directly comparable across countries given that we use the standardized OECD/INFE financial literacy survey data and Hofstede's, 2001, cultural dimensions to capture financial literacy and national culture. In line with the financial socialization theory, we find that uncertainty avoidance positively influences financial literacy, while individualism negatively influences financial literacy. We conclude that national culture affects financial literacy and that it is important to account for cultural dimensions in future international financial literacy research.
本文考察了12个国家的民族文化对成人金融知识水平的影响。与早期的金融素养研究相反,鉴于我们使用标准化的OECD/INFE金融素养调查数据和Hofstede的2001年文化维度来捕捉金融素养和国家文化,我们的结果在各国之间具有直接可比性。根据金融社会化理论,我们发现不确定性规避正向影响金融素养,而个人主义负向影响金融素养。我们得出结论,国家文化影响金融素养,在未来的国际金融素养研究中考虑文化维度是很重要的。

Digital media, also called by many as “New Media,” is the use of computers and mobile devices (blogs, e-book, and video games) which are aided by internet to create and disseminate content as well as other physical embodiment such as flash memory sticks, hard drive among others. Some scholars prefer to define digital media in contrast to “analog”, “mass media” in relation to “new media” and so on. The history of digital media documents the move of computers from glorified calculators to devices that are transforming human communications, entertainment, and creative production, linking digital media to earlier interactive machines and media. Digitization and media convergence in Ghana are considered by many media experts as the gateway to the socio-economic development of Ghana. Since its introduction in the early 1990s, digital media and information and communication technology have shaped and continue to shape the media landscape of the good people of Ghana. In spite of the numerous opportunities presented by the digital media technologies developing country like Ghana, the challenges are still eminent which prevent the country from tapping the full potentials of digital media. This article starts with a review of literature on the concept of digital or new media in global, Africa and Ghana context, the Internet and new media production. The article closes on the opportunities, challenges and the way forward for the development of digital media technology use in Ghana. Sources of material for this article included published and unpublished academic articles, media reports, and personal and institutional blogs, as well as Web sites.
数字媒体,也被许多人称为“新媒体”,是指利用电脑和移动设备(博客、电子书和视频游戏)在互联网的帮助下创造和传播内容,以及其他物理体现,如闪存棒、硬盘驱动器等。一些学者更倾向于将数字媒体定义为与“模拟”相对立的媒介,将“大众媒体”定义为与“新媒体”相对立的媒介等等。数字媒体的历史记录了计算机从光荣的计算器转变为改变人类通信、娱乐和创造性生产的设备,将数字媒体与早期的交互式机器和媒体联系起来。数位化与媒体融合被许多媒体专家视为加纳社会经济发展的门户。自1990年代初推出以来,数位媒体、资讯与通讯技术已经并将继续塑造加纳人民的媒体版图。尽管像加纳这样的数字媒体技术发展中国家提供了许多机会,但阻碍该国充分挖掘数字媒体潜力的挑战仍然突出。本文首先回顾全球、非洲和加纳背景下的数字或新媒体概念、互联网和新媒体制作方面的文献。文章最后讨论了加纳数字媒体技术发展的机遇、挑战和未来之路。本文的材料来源包括已发表和未发表的学术文章、媒体报道、个人和机构博客以及Web站点。

High-Skill Migration, Multinational Companies and the Location of Economic Activity 高技能移民、跨国公司和经济活动地点
Pub Date : 2019-12-01 DOI: 10.2139/ssrn.3336003
N. Morales
This paper aims to understand the relationship between high-skill immigration and multinational activity. I assemble a novel firm-level dataset on high-skill visas and show that there is a large home bias effect: foreign multinationals hire more immigrants from their home countries than from other origins. I then build and estimate a quantitative model that relates multinational production with immigration. First, I impose a restrictive immigration policy in the US and evaluate how it affects production and wages. Second, I increase the barriers to multinational production and show that immigration is an important channel to quantify the welfare gains generated by multinationals.
本文旨在了解高技能移民与跨国活动之间的关系。我收集了一个关于高技能签证的新颖的公司层面数据集,并表明存在一个很大的母国偏见效应:外国跨国公司从母国雇佣的移民多于从其他国家雇佣的移民。然后,我建立并估计了一个将跨国生产与移民联系起来的定量模型。首先,我在美国实施一项限制性移民政策,并评估它对生产和工资的影响。其次,我增加了跨国生产的壁垒,并表明移民是量化跨国公司产生的福利收益的重要渠道。

Foreign and Domestic Company Attractiveness to Host National Employees in Japan: A Person–Organization Fit and Image Theory Perspective 日本国内外企业对本国员工的吸引力:个人-组织契合和形象理论视角
Pub Date : 2019-12-01 DOI: 10.1111/ijsa.12259
Vesa Peltokorpi, A. Bader, F. Froese
This study contributes to research on organizational attractiveness and human resource management (HRM) by drawing on image theory to examine the effect of organizational characteristics (foreign vs. domestic company country‐of‐origin, HRM practices, organizational culture, and work environment) on organizational attractiveness perceptions by host country national (HCN) employees. Drawing on person–organization fit theory, we also examine the moderating effects of HCNs' demographic characters (age and gender), work‐related skills (English proficiency and international experience), and value orientations (individualism and risk aversion) between the relationship of these organizational characteristics and organizational attractiveness. A between‐subject scenario‐based experiment with 800 HCN employees in Japan suggest that not the company country‐of‐origin, but the local adaptation of organizational culture, HRM practices, and work environment influence HCNs' organizational attractiveness perceptions. HCNs' demographic characteristics, work‐related skills, and value orientations had moderating effects between these organizational characteristics and organizational attractiveness perceptions.
本研究通过利用形象理论来检验组织特征(外国与国内公司原籍国、人力资源管理实践、组织文化和工作环境)对东道国国民(HCN)员工对组织吸引力感知的影响,从而有助于组织吸引力和人力资源管理(HRM)的研究。利用人-组织匹配理论,我们还考察了HCNs的人口统计学特征(年龄和性别)、工作相关技能(英语水平和国际经验)和价值取向(个人主义和风险规避)在这些组织特征与组织吸引力关系中的调节作用。一项针对日本800名HCN员工的受试者间情景实验表明,影响HCN员工组织吸引力感知的不是公司原籍国,而是组织文化、人力资源管理实践和工作环境的当地适应性。hcn的人口统计学特征、工作相关技能和价值取向在这些组织特征和组织吸引力感知之间具有调节作用。

The Geoeconomic Challenge to International Economic Law: Lessons From the Regulation of Data in China 国际经济法面临的地缘经济挑战:来自中国数据监管的经验教训

A clash of economic models with the potential to disrupt international economic law is emerging in the wake of China’s increasing global presence. At the center of this clash of models is the claim that China introduces a ‘geoeconomic’ element to economic relations, while others follow a ‘market-orientation’. The emergence of such clash of models owes significantly to the fact that China has proven unwilling to change course to meet expectations of other actors. In an attempt to manage China’s competition, actors such as the US are themselves resorting to geoeconomic measures, thereby triggering a ‘geoeconomic chain reaction’. The article argues that such geoeconomic dynamic changes the logic underlying global economic relations, with implications for international economic law. The article examines the regulation of data in China, particularly data localization provisions, to show (i) how this legislation advances the geoeconomic goal of helping China to become a leader in artificial intelligence; and (ii) the consequences of China’s approach to data regulation over the prospects of international rules being agreed in this area—so as to project the impact of geoeconomics on international economic law.
随着中国在全球的影响力不断增强,一场可能扰乱国际经济法的经济模式冲突正在出现。这种模式冲突的核心是声称中国在经济关系中引入了“地缘经济”因素,而其他国家则遵循“市场导向”。这种模式冲突的出现在很大程度上要归功于这样一个事实,即中国已被证明不愿改变路线以满足其他参与者的期望。为了应对中国的竞争,美国等行为体自己也在诉诸地缘经济措施,从而引发了“地缘经济连锁反应”。本文认为,这种地缘经济动态改变了全球经济关系的逻辑,并对国际经济法产生了影响。本文考察了中国的数据监管,特别是数据本地化规定,以显示(i)该立法如何推进帮助中国成为人工智能领导者的地缘经济目标;(ii)中国数据监管方式对该领域国际规则达成一致的前景的影响——从而预测地缘经济学对国际经济法的影响。

The Construction of Social Housing Pathways Across Australia 澳大利亚社会住房路径的建设

Housing pathways describe the changing experience of housing by tenants and their households over time and space. The impact of the transformation of social housing in recent years on these pathways is not well understood, and we investigate it in this report. Accessing and securing social housing is dependent on a range of eligibility criteria, with housing allocated on a priority needs basis. In some jurisdictions, having a low income alone does not guarantee eligibility for social housing. Living in social housing means that one’s housing can be subject to periodic eligibility reviews, which can also be triggered by (mis)use of premises or by changing household circumstances. For example, an increase in household income, the expansion of a household or when a household member needs to leave due to family violence. The way these issues are monitored and assessed across jurisdictions directly shapes the housing pathways of social housing tenants. Moves within social housing can be tenant-initiated or landlord-initiated. Tenant-initiated transfers are most likely to result from changing household circumstances, and landlord-initiated transfers from portfolio or tenancy management. Both tenant and landlord-initiated transfers are constrained by the wider policy context, specifically, a shortage of suitable alternative housing stock to transfer households to. Moves out of social housing may also be tenant or landlord-initiated. Previous research has demonstrated that regardless of who initiated the move, tenants often return to the social housing system. Returns to social housing are compounded by the increasing proportion of tenants with complex needs who are likely to require support to live in private housing. The lack of affordable and appropriate housing alternatives to social housing also increases pressure on the sector, including from tenants returning to the sector who have previously left. Many of the operational policies that shape housing pathways have been introduced in the context of sustained high demand and a lack of supply. They are therefore arguably designed to manage wait lists by rationing supply. While we are yet to explore the tenant experience of social housing pathways, reimagining social housing pathways likely requires a greater policy focus on ensuring positive outcomes for households. © Australian Housing and Urban Research Institute Limited 2019.
住房路径描述了租户及其家庭随时间和空间变化的住房体验。近年来,社会住房的转型对这些途径的影响尚未得到很好的理解,我们在本报告中对此进行了调查。能否获得和获得社会住房取决于一系列资格标准,住房是根据优先需要分配的。在一些司法管辖区,仅靠低收入并不能保证有资格获得社会住房。住在社会住房意味着一个人的住房可能会受到定期的资格审查,这种审查也可能因(错误)使用房屋或改变家庭环境而触发。例如,家庭收入增加、家庭规模扩大或家庭成员因家庭暴力而需要离开。这些问题在各个司法管辖区的监测和评估方式直接影响了社会住房租户的住房路径。社会住房内的搬迁可以是租户发起的,也可以是房东发起的。租户发起的转移最有可能是由于家庭环境的变化,房东发起的转移来自投资组合或租赁管理。租户和房东发起的转移都受到更广泛的政策背景的限制,特别是缺乏可供住户转移的合适替代住房。搬离社会住房也可能是房客或房东发起的。先前的研究表明,无论是谁发起的搬迁,租户往往会回到社会住房系统。由于有复杂需要的租客越来越多,他们可能需要支助才能住进私人住房,所以社会住房的回迁情况更加复杂。缺乏可负担和适当的住房替代社会住房也增加了该部门的压力,包括来自以前离开的租户返回该部门的压力。许多影响住房路径的操作政策都是在需求持续高企和供应不足的背景下出台的。因此,它们的设计可以说是为了通过配给供应来管理等候名单。虽然我们还没有探索社会住房路径的租户体验,但重新构想社会住房路径可能需要更多的政策关注,以确保家庭的积极成果。©澳大利亚住房和城市研究所有限公司2019。
