Journal Article: "A Scale Estimation and Structural Analysis of China's Data Factor of Production: From the Perspective of Information Value Chain"
The data factor of production is playing an important role in today's digital economy. In this paper we create a new statistical method to estimate yearly investment on data factor of production by different provinces, and separate these investments into labor cost on data production and investment cost on data carriers. The former is calculated by the wage data of different industries in different regions, and the latter is based on yearly fixed asset investment data. We calculate China's proviXiang Xu, Xiaoxuan Tian, Ke'aobo Li, Binkai Chen -

Journal Article: "ESG Investor Behavior and Related Research Frontiers in the Context of Carbon Neutrality: Overview and Extension"
This paper proposes a new framework for understanding why investors consider environmental, social, and governance (ESG) factors within their investments processes, based on two intrinsic characteristics of investors: self-discipline and their level of social engagement. The authors believe that there are limitations to the popular view of understanding investors' ESG considerations as a social preference, or rather a pro-social action. First, the pro-social view does not explain why investorsDi Tang, Xingye Jin

New structural economics: A framework of studying government and economics
AbstractNew structural economics is a new framework for rethinking economic development following structuralism and neoliberalism after World War II. This framework uses a neoclassical approach to study the determinants of economic structure and its evolution in a countrys economic development (Lin, 2011). We argue that a countrys economic structure is endogenous to its factor endowments, and that the key for developmental success is to have a facilitating government to help entrepreneurs overcoJustin Yifu Lin -
Migration and redistribution: Why the federal governance of an economic union does matter
Federal governance matters. Policy coordination allows the economic union to exercise monopsony power over migrants. Therefore the migration volumes under the policycompetition regime exceed those under the policy-coordination regime. With loose federal governance, competition over low-skilled migrants, who come with no capital, induces the individual member state to raise the provision of social benefit, so as to attract more migrants when starting from the coordination equilibrium.

Public Health, Elementary Education and Infrastructure Constitutes the Foundation of Future Economic Development
In the early years of the People's Republic of China, war, famine and infectious diseases made it difficult to ensure the basic health level of the people. In 1949, the average life expectancy in China was only 35 years, and the infant mortality rate was as high as 200‰1. Faced with such rigorous challenges and the lack of medical resources, China urgently needed to build a public health system to solve the most basic medical problems of the people.excerpted from Economic Lessons from 70 Years of China's Development
