This paper provides new estimates of capital inputs in the Chinese economy. Estimates are made for the total economy (1953-2003), for the industrial sector (1978-2003) and for the manufacturing sector (1985-2003). The estimates for industry and manufacturing are broken down by thirty regions....

This paper presents new estimates of capital inputs in the Chinese economy. Estimates are made for the total economy (1953–2007), for the industrial sector (1953–2007) and for manufacturing (1985–2007). The capital input estimates for industry and manufacturing are also broken down by...

It is widely believed that the acceleration of growth since reforms began in 1978 has increased regional disparities in China. This paper examines whether this is the case for GDP per capita, labour productivity and technical efficiency in industry in 30 regions from 1978 to 2005. The unexpected...

This article focuses on the contribution of structural change to aggregate manufacturing and industrial productivity in China. Using shift-share techniques, this article examines three types of structural change: changes in the sectoral structure of production, changes in the ownership...

By empirical demonstration, this study extends the assessments of BRICS countries (Brazil, Russia, India, China and South Africa) in performing science and technology in previous studies by exploring their cumulative patterns of science and technology (proxied by publications and patents...

This study presents a framework for mapping rainfall-induced landslide susceptibility in the Wencheng area of Zhejiang Province, China, using support vector machine (SVM). Seven conditioning factors of elevation, slope, aspect, distance to roads, lithology, land use, and normalized difference...

<title>Abstract</title> Despite their increasing importance worldwide, community foundations remain rare in much of East Asia. This comparative analysis of three community-based foundations currently operating in Japan, China and South Korea seeks to understand the role they play and factors that promote or...

We are concerned with the behavior of the eigenvalues of renormalized sample covariance matrices of the form Cn=np(1nAp1/2XnBnXn∗Ap1/2−1ntr(Bn)Ap) as p,n→∞ and p/n→0, where Xn is a p×n matrix with i.i.d. real or complex valued entries Xij satisfying E(Xij)=0, E|Xij|2=1 and having...
