Temporary Services for Shrinking Cities 缩小城市的临时服务
Pub Date : 2012-03-06 DOI: 10.2139/SSRN.2016931
T. Schwarz
In shrinking cities, there is a need to simultaneously respond to current conditions of vacancy and loss, while anticipating prospects for stabilization and future growth. Temporary uses enable cities to harvest the opportunities that are present in on-going cycles of growth and decline. Rather than commit to a rigid and formal course of action. The widespread deployment of temporary use initiatives can point the way towards a new form of urbanism — one that is flexible, community-responsive, and sustainable.
在萎缩的城市,需要同时对目前的空缺和损失情况作出反应,同时预测稳定和未来增长的前景。临时使用使城市能够在持续的增长和衰退周期中获得机会。而不是拘泥于死板和正式的行动方式。临时使用倡议的广泛部署可以为一种新的城市主义指明道路——一种灵活、社区响应和可持续的城市主义。

Urban Design and Stormwater Management Strategies for Suburban Regeneration 郊区更新的城市设计和雨水管理策略
Pub Date : 2012-03-06 DOI: 10.2139/ssrn.2016932
T. Schwarz
Suburban development surged after World War II, drawing residents and retail from the core city. The growth of post-war suburbs was rapid and often occurred with little consideration of physical form and stormwater management. As these suburbs age, they are beginning to lose their appeal to homebuyers and businesses, as the development dynamic and roadway infrastructure is pushing further out to the periphery of metropolitan areas and beyond.Older suburbs — those that developed prior to world War II — are better able to retain their competitive edge because they typically have distinctive architecture, walkable neighborhoods, planned green spaces, and access to public transit. All of these features help older suburbs retain their market appeal, even in the face of changing demographics and settlement patterns within a region. In contrast, post-war suburbs tend to lack the architectural character and amenities found in older suburbs. Post-war suburbs also face challenges in dealing with infrastructure, changing traffic patterns, and stormwater management that stem from decisions that were made rapidly and often without adequate planning during periods of growth in the early years of these communities. This paper looks at retrofitting postwar suburbs with a civic and environmental framework that will better enable these places to retain their viability over the long term. The paper includes case studies of Boardman, Ohio (an inner-ring suburb of Youngstown), and Independence and North Royalton, Ohio (both suburbs of Cleveland).
第二次世界大战后,郊区发展迅速,吸引了核心城市的居民和零售业。战后郊区的发展迅速,往往很少考虑到物理形式和雨水管理。随着这些郊区的老化,它们开始失去对购房者和企业的吸引力,因为发展动态和道路基础设施正在进一步向大都市地区的外围和更远的地方推进。较老的郊区——那些在第二次世界大战之前开发的郊区——能够更好地保持它们的竞争优势,因为它们通常有独特的建筑、适合步行的社区、规划好的绿地和公共交通。所有这些特点都有助于老郊区保持其市场吸引力,即使面对一个地区内不断变化的人口结构和定居模式。相比之下,战后郊区往往缺乏旧郊区的建筑特色和便利设施。战后郊区在处理基础设施、不断变化的交通模式和雨水管理方面也面临着挑战,这些挑战源于这些社区早期发展时期迅速做出的决策,往往没有充分的规划。本文着眼于用公民和环境框架改造战后郊区,使这些地方能够更好地长期保持其生存能力。本文包括对俄亥俄州博德曼(扬斯敦的内环郊区)和俄亥俄州独立和北罗亚尔顿(都是克利夫兰的郊区)的案例研究。

Standardized Environmental Management Systems as an Internal Management Tool 作为内部管理工具的标准化环境管理系统
Pub Date : 2012-02-16 DOI: 10.2139/ssrn.2005697
Eduard Alonso‐Paulí, F. André
In a principal-agent model we analyze the firm's decision to adopt an informal or a standardized environmental management system (EMS). Our results are consistent with empirical evidence in several respects. A standardized EMS increases the internal control at the cost of introducing some degree of rigidity that entails an endogenous setup cost. Standardized systems are more prone to be adopted by big and well established firms and under tougher environmental policies. Firms with standardized EMS tend to devote more effort to abatement although this effort results in lower pollution only if public incentives are strong enough, suggesting a complementarity relationship between standardized EMS and public policies. Emission charges have both a marginal effect on abatement and a qualitative effect on the adoption decision that may induce a conflict between private and public interests. As a result of the combination of these two effects it can be optimal for the government to distort the tax in a specific way in order to push the firm to choose the socially optimal EMS. The introduction of standardized systems can result in win-win situations where firms, society and the environment get better off.
在委托代理模型中,我们分析了企业采用非正式或标准化环境管理系统(EMS)的决策。我们的结果在几个方面与经验证据是一致的。标准化的EMS增加了内部控制,其代价是引入某种程度的刚性,这需要内生的设置成本。标准化的系统更容易被大型和成熟的公司采用,并且在更严格的环境政策下。虽然只有在公共激励足够强的情况下,这种努力才会降低污染,但具有标准化环境管理体系的企业倾向于投入更多的努力来减排,这表明标准化环境管理体系与公共政策之间存在互补关系。排放收费对减排有边际效应,对采用决策有质的影响,可能引起私人和公共利益之间的冲突。由于这两种效应的结合,政府以特定的方式扭曲税收,以推动企业选择社会最优的EMS是最优的。标准化系统的引入可以带来企业、社会和环境的双赢局面。

Does Local Religiosity Impact Corporate Social Responsibility? 地方宗教信仰影响企业社会责任吗?
Pub Date : 2012-02-01 DOI: 10.2139/ssrn.1926387
Sean McGuire, Nathan J. Newton, Thomas C. Omer, Nathan Y. Sharp
Recent research indicates the social norms of geographic areas where firms are headquartered have an impact on corporate decision-making. Drawing on instrumental stakeholder theory and social norm theory, we extend this line of research by examining the influence of local religiosity on corporate social responsibility (CSR). This study shows that firms headquartered in areas with a strong religious presence receive lower ratings for CSR, and the market rewards these firms for their choices. Our findings contribute to understanding factors that impact individual firm choices regarding CSR as well as demonstrating the role of religious attitudes in corporate behavior.
最近的研究表明,公司总部所在地理区域的社会规范对公司决策有影响。利用工具利益相关者理论和社会规范理论,我们通过考察地方宗教信仰对企业社会责任(CSR)的影响来扩展这条研究路线。这项研究表明,总部设在宗教信仰强烈的地区的公司在企业社会责任方面的评级较低,市场会奖励这些公司的选择。我们的研究结果有助于理解影响企业社会责任选择的因素,并证明宗教态度在企业行为中的作用。

Re-Casting the Frame of Corporate Social Responsibility and Responsible Investment: An Environmental and Social Perspective 重铸企业社会责任与责任投资框架:环境与社会视角
Pub Date : 2011-12-21 DOI: 10.2139/ssrn.1975546

The normative financial assumption currently at play in both the corporate sector and 'responsible' investment is that accountability and transparency are the primary prerequisites for 'good' governance. Here, it is assumed that financial disclosure, and open and transparent accounting are sufficient indicators of probity. Should the particular entity, which seeks to gain financially from investing in the corporation in question, require further proof of responsibility, it often requires reporting against other environmental, social, or 'governance' criteria (ESG).This paper seeks to challenge these assumptions by arguing that accountability and transparency and 'ESG' are only partial determinants of responsible corporate and financial behaviour. Since the Rio 'Earth' Summit in 1992 - followed by Rio 10 in Johannesburg in 2002, and now Rio 20 - the international community has placed considerable emphasis on sustainability as a key means of social, environmental and economic development. This global policy agenda has also played itself out within the corporate and financial spheres, with several United Nations bodies now having carriage of responsibility for encouraging the implementation of good corporate and financial practice.A wide range of expectations is now placed on corporations seeking to promote themselves as suitable candidates for responsible investment. In turn, responsible investment as a financial industry sector is also coming under increasing scrutiny regarding its activities. Using a hierarchical framework of principles, criteria and indicators, this paper evaluates the governance quality of responsible investment. Following international political theory, it subjects the sector to a multi-stakeholder analysis of governance quality by means of an international survey conducted in 2011. The survey shows that while stakeholders rate governance quality relatively highly, there are some wide discrepancies across key indicators, and stakeholder groups. These results are similar to those previously collected in 2009, and reveal some governance trends. The results have implications for current and future governance practice in both corporations seeking recognition as suitable prospects for responsible investment, and for the responsible investment industry itself.
目前在企业部门和“负责任”投资中发挥作用的规范性财务假设是,问责制和透明度是“良好”治理的首要先决条件。在这里,假定财务披露和公开透明的会计是足够的诚信指标。如果寻求从投资相关公司中获利的特定实体需要进一步的责任证明,它通常需要根据其他环境、社会或“治理”标准(ESG)进行报告。本文试图挑战这些假设,认为问责制、透明度和“ESG”只是负责任的企业和金融行为的部分决定因素。自1992年“地球”峰会以来——随后是2002年在约翰内斯堡举行的里约热内卢10峰会,以及现在的里约热内卢20峰会——国际社会相当重视可持续性,将其作为社会、环境和经济发展的关键手段。这一全球政策议程也在公司和财政领域发挥了作用,联合国的几个机构现在有责任鼓励执行良好的公司和财政做法。现在,人们对寻求将自己宣传为负责任投资的合适候选人的公司寄予了广泛的期望。反过来,负责任投资作为一个金融行业部门,其活动也受到越来越多的审查。本文采用由原则、标准和指标构成的层次框架,对责任投资的治理质量进行了评价。根据国际政治理论,通过2011年进行的一项国际调查,对该部门的治理质量进行了多利益相关者分析。调查显示,虽然利益相关者对治理质量的评价相对较高,但在关键指标和利益相关者群体之间存在很大差异。这些结果与之前在2009年收集的结果相似,并揭示了一些治理趋势。研究结果对寻求责任投资的合适前景的公司和责任投资行业本身的当前和未来的治理实践具有启示意义。

Encouraging New Hires to Save for Retirement 鼓励新员工为退休储蓄
Pub Date : 2011-11-07 DOI: 10.2139/SSRN.1969649
R. Clark, M. Morrill, Jen Maki
This project examines the impact of employer-provided financial education for newly hired workers on contributions to voluntary retirement savings plans. Using administrative data from five large employers, the researchers assess the impact of information and delivery methods on the choice to participate in the plans and the deferral amount selected. The researchers collected additional data from one employer-partner covering the two years before and after their automatic enrollment policy was implemented. Average participation rates increased sharply, while the same fraction of workers took advantage of the full employer match once eligible. The researchers also conducted a survey of newly hired workers. The survey measured employees’ understanding of their company’s voluntary retirement savings plan, their assessment of the employer-provided information, and their reasons for limited or non-participation. Nonparticipants demonstrated lower overall financial literacy relative to participants, and many respondents felt that the information provided by their employers was not sufficient. Finally, the largest employer-partner, BB&T, implemented a field experiment where an on-line mailing was sent to a random subset of non-participating newly hired workers. Younger workers receiving the flyer were significantly more likely to enroll in the 401(k) plan, while older workers actually had lower initiation rates relative to their control group. The research presented provides insights into the efficacy and importance of financial education provided by employers to newly hired workers and how it impacts their retirement saving decisions.
本项目考察了雇主为新雇佣工人提供的金融教育对自愿退休储蓄计划缴款的影响。利用来自五家大型雇主的行政数据,研究人员评估了信息和传递方式对参与计划的选择和所选择的延期金额的影响。研究人员从一个雇主的合作伙伴那里收集了自动注册政策实施前后两年的额外数据。平均参与率急剧上升,而同样比例的工人在符合条件的情况下利用了完全的雇主匹配。研究人员还对新雇佣的员工进行了调查。这项调查考察了员工对公司的自愿退休储蓄计划的了解程度、对雇主提供的信息的评估,以及他们有限参与或不参与的原因。与参与者相比,非参与者表现出较低的整体金融素养,许多受访者认为雇主提供的信息不充分。最后,最大的雇主合作伙伴BB&T实施了一项实地实验,将在线邮件随机发送给一组未参与的新雇佣员工。收到传单的年轻员工更有可能加入401(k)计划,而年长员工的加入率实际上比对照组要低。本文的研究揭示了雇主对新雇员进行金融教育的有效性和重要性,以及它如何影响他们的退休储蓄决策。

The Stakeholders’ Analysis and Development Indicator of Sustainability on the Community Project 社区项目的利益相关者分析与可持续发展指标
Pub Date : 2011-09-22 DOI: 10.2139/ssrn.1818584
E. Purnomo
Commons or resources can be useful but sometimes could be dangerous for humanity. The resources can be vulnerable if the human who has to manage fails. Understanding the stakeholder could be an appropriate way to solve it. Therefore this essay, based on the case study of the Bardon Grange Allotment Project (BGAP) in Leeds, the UK, is to understand the stakeholder involvement and elaborate the sustainability indicators that have been used in this project. The targets are also to understand the stakeholders’ participation and to measure the indicators of its sustainability.
公地或资源可能是有用的,但有时对人类来说可能是危险的。如果负责管理的人失败了,这些资源就会变得脆弱。理解涉众可能是解决这个问题的合适方法。因此,本文基于英国利兹的巴登田庄分配项目(BGAP)的案例研究,旨在了解利益相关者的参与,并详细阐述该项目中使用的可持续性指标。目标还包括了解利益相关者的参与情况,并衡量其可持续性指标。

Social Choice in Organizations 组织中的社会选择
Pub Date : 2011-09-13 DOI: 10.2139/ssrn.1939336
W. Stirling, Teppo Felin
This paper models organizational strategy as a social choice. We model how individual preferences for a course of action are aggregated toward an organizational choice and strategy. To accomplish this aggregation we specifically highlight the role of conditional (rather than categorical) preferences. We emphasize the role that two factors play in the aggregation of conditional preferences in organizations: (i) acyclical influence (for example, via organizational hierarchy) and (ii) social coherence. We also model the role of 'coordinatability' and mutual information in the context of aggregating heterogeneous preferences in organizations. Our effort is also to contribute to a more contextualized view of social choice by modeling it, in amended form, within the context of organizations.
本文将组织战略建模为一种社会选择。我们对个人的行动偏好如何向组织的选择和战略聚合进行建模。为了实现这种聚合,我们特别强调了条件偏好(而不是分类偏好)的作用。我们强调两个因素在组织中条件偏好的聚合中所起的作用:(i)非周期性影响(例如,通过组织层级)和(ii)社会一致性。我们还模拟了在组织中聚集异质偏好的背景下,“协调性”和相互信息的作用。我们的努力也是通过在组织的背景下以修正的形式对社会选择进行建模,从而为社会选择提供一个更加情境化的观点。

The Management Case for Corporate Social Responsibility 企业社会责任的管理案例
Pub Date : 2011-07-21 DOI: 10.2139/ssrn.1947295
Antonio Argandoña
Can Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) provide new arguments to "humanize" the theory of the firm and the management profession? Several arguments (the legal, ethical, social and business cases) have contributed to the discussion of why companies should be socially responsible. In this paper I discuss each of these arguments from the point of view of the manager who asks himself why he should be socially responsible. And I add a set of new reasons that make up the "management case" for CSR. In exploring why CSR is good management, this paper explains why ethics and CSR make the firm more human and humanize the task of the manager.
企业社会责任(CSR)能否为企业和管理职业的“人性化”理论提供新的论据?几个论点(法律、道德、社会和商业案例)促成了关于公司为什么应该承担社会责任的讨论。在本文中,我从管理者的角度来讨论这些论点,管理者问自己为什么他应该承担社会责任。我还添加了一组新的理由,构成了企业社会责任的“管理案例”。在探讨为什么企业社会责任是好的管理时,本文解释了为什么伦理和企业社会责任使企业更加人性化,并使管理者的任务人性化。

And I add a set of new reasons that make up the \"management case\" for CSR. In exploring why CSR is good management, this paper explains why ethics and CSR make the firm more human and humanize the task of the manager.","PeriodicalId":210566,"journal":{"name":"Strategy & Social Policies eJournal","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2011-07-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"124148618","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Moral Hazard and Renegotiation of Multi-Signal Contracts 多信号合同的道德风险与再谈判

We study the costs and benefits of additional information in agency contracts, when there is the possibility of renegotiation. The literature to date assumes that contractual simplicity, i.e. the omission of informative contractual contingencies, can only arise in multi-period environments, and only in a specific manner in which it is interim information that is excluded. In contrast, we show that in certain circumstances, it is also efficient to restrict the set of contingencies in a standard one period contract, where all information arrives at once. Although increasing the number of contingencies will always decrease the agency cost, it can have the adverse effect of weakening the principal's commitment not to renegotiate, thus undermining ex ante incentives to exert effort. Applications to several real world phenomena are briefly explored.
我们研究了当存在重新谈判的可能性时,代理合同中额外信息的成本和收益。迄今为止的文献假设,合同的简单性,即遗漏信息合同或有事项,只能在多时期环境中出现,并且只能以排除临时信息的特定方式出现。相反,我们证明了在某些情况下,在所有信息同时到达的标准单期合同中,限制或有事件的集合也是有效的。尽管增加或有事件的数量总是会降低代理成本,但它可能会产生不利影响,削弱委托人不重新谈判的承诺,从而削弱付出努力的事前激励。简要探讨了几种现实世界现象的应用。
