Global Risk Attitudes Research: From Climate Change to Vaccination

Yumo Song — Wed, 04 Sep 2024 00:00:00 +0000

In recent years, risk challenges have become more intense with the globalization of the economy. As global risk attitudes have a considerable impact on various factors of global risk treatment, research on global risk attitudes has gradually increased in recent years, but there has been little bibliometric analysis, including co-citation analysis, hot topics, detection of unexpected events, and emerging trends. Therefore, this paper uses a combination of conventional bibliometrics and machine learning to address the above questions and to intuitively present hot topics and future research trends in global risk attitude research. It was found that major diseases, behavioral influences between men and women, climate change, experimental inquiry, vaccination, and sexual health were the most popular topics in global risk attitude research. Based on the current status of global risk attitude research, future research could be conducted on the topic of people’s attitudes toward vaccination after COVID-19 infection to explore whether there are new changes in these people’s attitudes toward vaccination. In addition, cluster analysis and burst detection of research themes revealed that vaccine hesitancy remains the most popular research direction in global risk attitude research at present. It is also very forward-looking to conduct research based on vaccine hesitancy as one of the top 10 health threats facing the world.

Boosting Hometown Entrepreneurship Performance: Insights from Entrepreneurial Ecosystem Theory

Yayuan Luo, Yutong Lu — Tue, 29 Oct 2024 00:00:00 +0000

The pivotal entrepreneurial performance displayed by rural enterprises holds paramount importance for sustaining the vitality of entrepreneurial activities. Consequently, the pursuit of enhancing this performance has garnered escalating interest and extensive attention among rural entrepreneurs. Drawing upon the theoretical framework of entrepreneurial ecosystems, this paper meticulously integrates seven core elements and innovatively fuses two emerging analytical approaches, namely NCA(Necessary Condition Analysis) and fsQCA(fuzzy set Qualitative Comparative Analysis), to delve into the intricate causal nexuses within these ecosystems that propel entrepreneurial performance within the unique context of China's rural landscape. The findings reveal that: (1) individual components of the entrepreneurial ecosystem do not independently guarantee high-quality entrepreneurial decisions; rather, robust social norms emerge as a more ubiquitous factor in fostering such quality. (2) Three distinct pathways underpin high-quality entrepreneurial decisions: a cognitive-informational dual-propulsion mechanism, a cognitively inclined resource-driven approach, and a cognitively communal driver. (3) there is one path that drives non-high entrepreneurial decisions, and they are related to the entrepreneurial performance of high entrepreneurial performance. They are asymmetrically related to the entrepreneurial ecosystem that produces high entrepreneurial performance.

Green Loan Interest Subsidy Policy, Green Technological Innovation, and High-Quality Enterprise Development

Meiwang Feng — Tue, 29 Oct 2024 00:00:00 +0000

The question of how financial and fiscal policies can be coordinated to exert substantive incentive effects, thereby promoting enterprises' green and low-carbon transformation as well as high-quality development, stands as a crucial challenge currently confronting China's real economy. This paper zeros in on the synergistic perspective of financial and fiscal policies, leveraging data from A-share listed companies in China spanning the years 2008 to 2020. Employing a progressive difference-in-differences (DID) model, it empirically assesses the structural impact of Green Loan Interest Subsidy Policy on enterprises' total factor productivity (TFP). The research demonstrates that Green Loan Interest Subsidy Policy are effective in enhancing enterprises' TFP, thereby empowering their high-quality development. An analysis of the impact mechanism reveals that these policies stimulate incremental and qualitative improvements in enterprises' green technological innovation mechanisms, optimizing TFP and driving high-quality development. Heterogeneity analysis further indicates that the incentive effects of Green Loan Interest Subsidy Policy on TFP are more pronounced in eastern and central regions, , as well as among enterprises operating in green and low-carbon industries. These findings offer theoretical support for governments, banks, and enterprises in guiding enterprises towards green and low-carbon production and high-quality development through green credit and interest subsidy policies.

Wenyan He — Wed, 04 Sep 2024 00:00:00 +0000

GDP (Gross Domestic Product), is the final result of production activities of all resident units of a country (or region) in a certain period of time. GDP is not only a core indicator of national economic accounting, but also an important indicator of the economic situation and development level of a country or region. China is the largest developing country and the second largest economy in the world. Since reform and opening to the outsideworld, China’s economy has maintained rapid growth, making a significant contribution to global economic growth. In 2020, China’s GDP brokekthrough 100 trillion, became the only major economy in the world to achieve positive growth; in 2022, China’s GDP reached 121 trillion, with a growth rate of 3%, and per capita GDP exceeded 12,000 dollars. With new momentum such as high-tech manufacturing and services growing, the quality of China’s economic development has been steadily improving, residents’ incomes basically synchronized with economic growth, and grain output stabilized at over 1.3 trillion pounds for eight consecutive years. Thus it can be seen, China’s economy has showed strong resilience, potential and space to embrace a brighter future. Focusing on specific regions, the GDP of some prefectural-level cities in China has been developing rapidly, showing the trend of “a thousand sailboats are competing across the river”. This phenomenon is most notable in the eastern part of China. Among them, Fuzhou City, capital of Fujian Province, and Foshan City, Guangdong Province, as two second-tier cities on the southeast coast, have received more attention for their GDP. In February 2023, the Foshan City Statistical Bureau released its GDP data for 2022: the total amount was 1,269.839 billion, with an incremental GDP of 54.185 billion and a nominal growth rate of 4.46%. Almost at the same time, Fuzhou City Statistical Bureau also released data: the city’s GDP realized 1,230.823 billion in 2022, with a nominal growth rate of 8.69%, moving up two places in the national GDP ranking. The two cities met in the national GDP ranking, ranking 17th and 18th respectively. And Fuzhou City has achieved an astonishing nominal growth rate of 8.69 %, also proved the importance of the strong provincial capital strategy for Fujian. These two cities, to a certain extent, also condensed the development status of the Fuxia Economic Circle and the Zhujiang Triangle Economic Circle, predicting and analyzing the economic significance of the GDP data of these two cities. This paper analyzes the GDP data of Foshan City and Fuzhou City based on the development in recent years, and tries to perform simple OLS linear regression analysis on its data through using statsmodels.api, matplotlib and so on in Python software, and selects the year of use reasonably according to the regression results to predict the GDP of the two cities in the future and provide the basic suggestions in a simple way.
