The initially high performance of a socioeconomic organization is quite often subject to gradual erosion over time. We present a simple model which captures such a phenomenon. We assume that players are partly motivated by certain psychological factors, norms and morale, and they are willing to exert extra effort if others do so. This results in a "continuum" of equilibrium effort levels, whose minimum corresponds to the Nash equilibrium with respect to the material incentives. We show that repeated random shocks induce the erosion of equilibrium e ort levels, but they do not completely decay; in the long run a certain range of efforts are sustainable. Our model shows that different organizations typically enjoy diverse norms and morale, which persist for a long time, in the vicinity of the equilibrium determined by material incentives.
一个社会经济组织最初的高绩效往往会随着时间的推移而逐渐受到侵蚀。我们提出了一个捕捉这种现象的简单模型。我们假设玩家受到某些心理因素、规范和士气的部分激励,如果其他人也这么做,他们也愿意付出额外的努力。这导致平衡努力水平的“连续体”,其最小值对应于物质激励方面的纳什均衡。我们表明,反复的随机冲击会导致平衡应力水平的侵蚀,但它们不会完全衰减;从长远来看,一定范围的努力是可持续的。我们的模型表明,不同的组织通常享有不同的规范和士气,并在物质激励决定的均衡附近持续很长一段时间。

Post-crisis Exchange Rate Regimes in East Asia 危机后东亚的汇率制度
Pub Date : 2002-11-01 DOI: 10.4324/9780203966969-10

More than five years after the onset of the Asian crisis, the characteristics of the exchange rate regimes of East Asian economies remain a topic of considerable discussion. The purpose of this paper is to investigate what affected the values of three ASEAN currencies, the Malaysia ringgit, the Singapore dollar, and the Thai baht after the crisis. The particular interest in our analysis is to explore why the East Asian currencies, which temporarily reduced correlations with the U.S. dollar after the crisis, had a tendency to revert back to de facto pegs against the U.S. dollar in the late 1990s. Based on high-frequency day-to-day observations, we examine how and when these three ASEAN currencies changed their correlations with the U.S. dollar and the Japanese yen in the post-crisis period. Before September 1st 1998, these currencies increased correlations with the Japanese yen in the post-crisis period. In particular, the increased correlations were larger than theoretical correlations based on the trade weights. The increase in correlations with the Japanese yen was, however, temporary. After Malaysia adopted the fixed exchange rate, both the Singapore dollar and the Thai baht increased correlations with the U.S. dollar drastically and began reverting back to de facto pegs against the U.S. dollar. A part of the change was attributable to asymmetric responses to the yen-dollar exchange rate. The change was, however, explained quite well by the strong linkage among the ASEAN countries. This implies that a regime switch in Malaysia had an enormously large impact on the exchange rates of the other ASEAN countries in the post-crisis period.
在亚洲金融危机爆发五年多之后,东亚经济体汇率制度的特点仍然是一个备受讨论的话题。本文的目的是调查是什么影响了三种东盟货币的价值,马来西亚林吉特,新加坡元和泰铢危机后。在我们的分析中,特别感兴趣的是探讨为什么东亚货币在危机后暂时降低了与美元的相关性,在20世纪90年代末有倾向于回归到事实上的与美元挂钩。基于高频的日常观察,我们研究了这三种东盟货币在后危机时期如何以及何时改变了它们与美元和日元的相关性。在1998年9月1日之前,这些货币在后危机时期增加了与日元的相关性。特别是,增加的相关性大于基于贸易权重的理论相关性。然而,美元与日元相关性的增加是暂时的。马来西亚实行固定汇率后,新加坡元和泰铢与美元的相关性急剧上升,并开始回到事实上与美元挂钩的状态。这种变化的部分原因是对日元兑美元汇率的不对称反应。然而,东盟国家之间的紧密联系很好地解释了这种变化。这意味着马来西亚的政权更迭在后危机时期对其他东盟国家的汇率产生了巨大的影响。

Concept and Relevance of Income 收入的概念和相关性
Pub Date : 2002-09-01 DOI: 10.2139/SSRN.339060
T. Obinata
Recently, many people criticize the traditionally accepted principles of realization, matching, and allocation. In addition, the reporting performance project in the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB) is willing to substitute the extant concept of net income for the unexperienced concept of comprehensive income with prohibition of recycling of other comprehensive income. On the other hand, the usefulness or relevance of net income has been repeatedly ascertained in empirical studies. It seems that accountants do not necessarily understand the common knowledge in academic circles correctly. This awareness is one of the motives of this paper to review the empirical evidence on relevance of net income. This paper investigates again to confirm the concept of net income by comparing it with similar concepts, which is closely related to net income. This investigation consists of two parts. The first part in Section 2 compares cash flows with net income by focusing on accounting allocation. This comparison emphasizes the rationale for income measurement with allocation of cash flows. The second part in Section 3 compares comprehensive income with net income. By focusing on the difference between the two (i.e. other comprehensive income ), this paper examines, though indirectly, the essential meaning of net income excluding other comprehensive income. The review in this paper deduces the following conclusion. First, although accruals are criticized for being affected by managerial discretion, they are in fact valuable sources of information for investors . This is a commonly accepted academic theory that has been confirmed repeatedly through comparison of the value relevance between earnings and cash flows. Second, we cannot find the evidence that other comprehensive income is value-relevant, though it is expected to respond to the information needs of accountants and analysts. In sum, net income characterized by realization, matching, and allocation is most useful in comparison with cash flows and comprehensive income.
最近,许多人批评传统上接受的实现、匹配和分配原则。此外,国际会计准则理事会(IASB)的报告绩效项目愿意用现有的净收入概念来代替没有经验的综合收益概念,并禁止回收其他综合收益。另一方面,净收入的有用性或相关性已在实证研究中反复确定。会计人员似乎并不一定能正确理解学术界的常识。这种意识是本文回顾净收益相关性的实证证据的动机之一。本文通过对与净收益密切相关的类似概念的比较,再次进行调查,确认净收益的概念。本次调查由两部分组成。第2节的第一部分通过关注会计分配来比较现金流量和净收入。这种比较强调了用现金流量分配来衡量收入的基本原理。第三节第二部分对综合收益和净收益进行了比较。通过关注两者之间的差异(即其他综合收益),本文间接地考察了不包括其他综合收益的净收益的本质含义。本文的综述得出以下结论。首先,尽管应计项目被批评为受管理层自由裁量权的影响,但它们实际上是投资者宝贵的信息来源。这是一个被普遍接受的学术理论,通过对盈余和现金流量之间的价值相关性的比较一再得到证实。第二,我们找不到其他综合收益与价值相关的证据,尽管它有望满足会计师和分析师的信息需求。总之,与现金流量和综合收益相比,以实现、匹配和分配为特征的净收入是最有用的。

Financial Malaise and the Myth of the Misgoverned Firm 金融萎靡和管理不善的公司神话
Pub Date : 2001-10-01 DOI: 10.2139/SSRN.290795
J. Ramseyer, Y. Miwa
For nearly a decade now, the specter of financial malaise has haunted East Asia. It overwhelms the weaker economies. It imperils North America. Persistently, it refuses to retreat. Yet even as the specter teases entrepreneurs with insolvency, some observers suggest that responsibility might lie with the entrepreneurs themselves. Might not the source of the malaise lie in the very governance structures they created and maintain, particularly in the shareholding and board composition patterns they support? Might not its solution lie in legal reforms that would force them to remake those structures? To examine these questions, we consider the governance arrangements at the heart of the malaise: in corporate Japan. Theoretically, we find nothing to suggest that the source of the recession lies in issues of corporate governance, and nothing to suggest that the solution lies in corporate law reform. We then assemble data from the banking industry -- one of the sectors most badly struck by the financial crisis. Empirically, we find nothing to suggest that the contested governance structures explain the poor performance of the banks involved.
近十年来,金融危机的幽灵一直困扰着东亚。它压倒了较弱的经济体。它危及北美。它顽固地拒绝退却。然而,即使幽灵以资不抵债取笑企业家,一些观察家认为责任可能在于企业家自己。问题的根源可能就在于它们创造并维持的治理结构,尤其是它们所支持的股权和董事会构成模式?难道解决之道不在于法律改革,迫使它们重新构建这些结构吗?为了研究这些问题,我们考虑了处于问题核心的日本企业的治理安排。从理论上讲,我们找不到任何证据表明经济衰退的根源在于公司治理问题,也找不到任何证据表明解决办法在于公司法改革。然后,我们收集银行业的数据——银行业是受金融危机冲击最严重的行业之一。从经验上看,我们没有发现任何证据表明,有争议的治理结构解释了相关银行的糟糕业绩。

Economic Development and Environment in Southeast Asia: An Introductory Note 东南亚经济发展与环境:导论
Pub Date : 2001-10-01 DOI: 10.1108/EUM0000000005540

Economic development in Southeast Asia has been associated with environmental degradation. Its cause is mainly attributed to rapid industrialization, coupled with urbanization and export growth, whereas the vicious circle of the poverty and the contamination is a minor case. The environmental damage in those countries will be partly reduced along with the rising income level, as the hypothesis of the "Environmental Kuznets Curves" argues. However, some of the major problems, CO2 emissions for example, would not be solved automatically on the basis of the market mechanism. The governments have indeed tried to prevent contamination, drawing lessons from experiences in the industrialized countries, but their continued efforts are indispensable for the well-being of the people.
东南亚的经济发展一直与环境退化有关。其原因主要是工业化的快速发展,加上城市化和出口的增长,而贫困和污染的恶性循环是次要的。正如“环境库兹涅茨曲线”假说所言,随着收入水平的提高,这些国家的环境破坏将部分减少。然而,一些重大问题,例如二氧化碳排放,不会在市场机制的基础上自动解决。各国政府确实在努力防止污染,吸取了工业化国家的经验教训,但为了人民的福祉,他们的持续努力是不可或缺的。

"The "Advantage of Latecomer"in Abating Air-Pollution: The East Asian Experience" Revised in February 2004 “后发优势”在减少空气污染:东亚的经验”2004年2月修订
Pub Date : 2001-09-01 DOI: 10.1108/03068290510580751

Between the early 1970s and the mid-1980s, air pollution in Japan, in particular that caused by sulfur dioxide (SO2), was reduced to a remarkable degree. This reduction resulted from responses to mounting civil protest: governmental regulation policy on the one hand, and innovation of abatement technology and energy efficiency on the other. In large East Asian cities, despite rapid economic growth, air pollution is less severe than it was in Japan in the early 1970s. This is because both government and industry in East Asia took early initiatives to prevent environmental degradation, learning from the experiences of developed countries.
从20世纪70年代初到80年代中期,日本的空气污染,特别是二氧化硫(SO2)造成的污染,显著减少。这种减少源于对日益增多的民间抗议的回应:一方面是政府监管政策,另一方面是减排技术和能源效率的创新。在东亚大城市,尽管经济快速增长,但空气污染没有日本在20世纪70年代初那么严重。这是因为东亚国家的政府和企业都很早就采取措施防止环境恶化,并借鉴了发达国家的经验。

Directed Credit? Capital Market Competition in High-Growth Japan 直接信用吗?高增长日本的资本市场竞争
Pub Date : 2001-09-01 DOI: 10.2139/SSRN.286858
Y. Miwa, J. M. Ramseyer
Observers routinely claim that the Japanese government during the high-growth 1960s and 70s rationed and ultimately directed credit. It banned investments by foreigners, barred domestic competitors to banks, and capped loan interest rates. Through the resulting credit shortage, it manipulated credit to promote its industrial policy. In fact, the government did nothing of the sort. It did not bar foreign capital, did not block domestic rivals, and did not set maximum interest rates that bound. Using evidence on loans to all 1000-odd firms listed on Section 1 of the Tokyo Stock Exchange from 1968 to 1982, we show that the observed interest rates reflected borrower risk and mortgageable assets, and that banks did not use low-interest deposits to circumvent any interest caps. Instead, the loan market probably cleared at the nominal rates. We follow our empirical inquiry with a case study of one of the industies where the government tried hardest to direct credit: ocean shipping. We find no evidence of credit rationing. Rather, we show that non-conformist firms funded their projects readily outside authorized avenues -- so readily that the non-conformists grew with spectacular speed and earned their investors enormous returns.
观察人士经常声称,在高增长的上世纪六七十年代,日本政府对信贷实行定量配给,并最终指导信贷。它禁止外国人投资,禁止国内银行竞争,并限制贷款利率。通过由此导致的信贷短缺,中国通过操纵信贷来推动其产业政策。事实上,政府并没有这样做。它没有禁止外国资本,没有阻止国内竞争对手,也没有设定上限利率。利用1968年至1982年在东京证券交易所第1节上市的所有1000多家公司的贷款证据,我们表明观察到的利率反映了借款人的风险和可抵押资产,并且银行没有使用低利率存款来规避任何利率上限。相反,贷款市场可能会以名义利率出清。在实证研究之后,我们对政府最努力引导信贷的行业之一——海运——进行了案例研究。我们没有发现信贷配给的证据。相反,我们表明,不墨守成规的公司很容易在授权渠道之外为他们的项目提供资金——如此之快,以至于不墨守成规的公司以惊人的速度增长,并为投资者赢得了巨大的回报。

When are Judges and Bureaucrats Left Independent? Theory and History from Imperial Japan, Postwar Japan, and the United States 法官和官僚什么时候能独立?日本帝国、战后日本和美国的理论和历史
Pub Date : 2001-08-01 DOI: 10.2139/SSRN.305900
E. Rasmusen, J. Ramseyer
This is one chapter from the book, Judicial Independence: Economic Theory and Japanese Empirics, that Mark Ramseyer and Eric Rasmusen are writing. In preceding chapters we explain the institutions of modern Japan's judiciary and use regression analysis to test whether judges who rule in ways the ruling Liberal Democratic Party (the LDP) disliked were penalized in their careers. We find that they were for some kinds of cases-involving such things as the constitutionality of the military, injunctions against the national (but not local) government, reapportionment, and electioneering laws. They were not penalized for other kinds of cases-tax and criminal cases. Those results are drawn from our earlier published papers, reorganized and synthesized for the present book. This chapter does not draw on our published work. It asks why the degree and type of independence of judges in modern Japan is different from that of other civil servants. In particular, we compare judges in modern Japan, pre-war Japan, and the United States; and we compare judges with other kinds of public employees, asking why they are not elected and why they are not directly under the control of politicians.
这是Mark Ramseyer和Eric Rasmusen合著的《司法独立:经济理论和日本经验》一书中的一章。在前面的章节中,我们解释了现代日本的司法制度,并使用回归分析来检验以执政的自民党(LDP)不喜欢的方式进行统治的法官是否在其职业生涯中受到惩罚。我们发现,它们是针对某些类型的案件——涉及军队的合宪性、针对国家(而不是地方)政府的禁令、重新分配和选举法。他们没有因其他类型的案件——税务和刑事案件——受到处罚。这些结果是从我们早期发表的论文中得出的,为本书进行了重组和综合。本章没有引用我们已发表的著作。现代日本法官的独立程度和类型为何与其他公务员不同?我们特别比较了近代日本、战前日本和美国的法官;我们将法官与其他类型的公共雇员进行比较,问他们为什么不是选举产生的,为什么他们不直接受政治家的控制。

In preceding chapters we explain the institutions of modern Japan's judiciary and use regression analysis to test whether judges who rule in ways the ruling Liberal Democratic Party (the LDP) disliked were penalized in their careers. We find that they were for some kinds of cases-involving such things as the constitutionality of the military, injunctions against the national (but not local) government, reapportionment, and electioneering laws. They were not penalized for other kinds of cases-tax and criminal cases. Those results are drawn from our earlier published papers, reorganized and synthesized for the present book. This chapter does not draw on our published work. It asks why the degree and type of independence of judges in modern Japan is different from that of other civil servants. In particular, we compare judges in modern Japan, pre-war Japan, and the United States; and we compare judges with other kinds of public employees, asking why they are not elected and why they are not directly under the control of politicians.","PeriodicalId":345004,"journal":{"name":"CIRJE F-Series","volume":"379 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2001-08-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"123446462","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}

Prepared as an introductory chapter to a forthcoming book on the distribution sector in Japan, this essay introduces the basic structure of the industry. We note the way competition drives consumers, sellers, and manufacturers to select distributional arrangements that minimize total costs, and the way that this distributional equilibrium will depend both on patterns of consumer demand and on production technology. To illustrate the way that cross-national distributional practices vary less than often thought, we compare automobile distribution in Japan and the U.S.
作为一本即将出版的关于日本分销部门的书的介绍性章节,本文介绍了该行业的基本结构。我们注意到竞争驱使消费者、销售者和制造商选择使总成本最小化的分配安排的方式,以及这种分配平衡将取决于消费者需求模式和生产技术的方式。为了说明跨国分销实践的差异没有人们通常认为的那么大,我们比较了日本和美国的汽车分销
