《全球产业转移》英文版
Global Shifts1Barry EichengreenUniversity of California, BerkeleyApril 2011Shifts happen. We are currently witnessing a major shift in the balance of economic, financial and political power from the advanced countries to emerging markets – from West to East, or from the West to the Rest. This is, of course, not the first time that we have observed this kind of global shift. The rise of the West from the 15th century and its concomitant, the decline of China, was itself an earlier instance, if mirror image, of this kind of shift. (See Figure 1.) The industrial revolution, which gave rise to what is sometimes called “The Great Divergence” (the growing divergence in manufacturing capability and in capacity to project power between the first countries to industrialize, principally in Europe, and other regions) marked another global shift. It is no coincidence that the first industrial nation, Great Britain, came to control fully a quarter of the world’s population and land mass by the end of the 19th century.2 There was the shift in economic power from the pioneer industrializer, Britain, to followers like Germany that contributed to the economic and geopolitical tensions helping to set the stage for World War I. There is Charles Kindleberger’s thesis that that Great Depression of the 1930s was a consequence of the global shift in power from Britain to the United States, one that left an exhausted Britain incapable of managing the world economy and an inexperienced United States unwilling to do so.3 There is the shift after World War II toward the two great superpowers, the United States and the Soviet Union, and the dominance of the U.S. over the Western world (Figure 2). There is then the relative decline of the United States owing to catch-up growth, first in Europe, next in Japan, and finally in East Asia and elsewhere, which gradually closed the per-capita-income gap. The current shift toward emerging markets like China and India (Figures 3 and 4) is usefully seen in this light.This paper examines these earlier shifts in economic and political power and asks what light they shed on the implications of today’s global shift. I inquire into the sources of the shift, describe the tensions to which it gave rise, and ask how those tensions were managed. The answer to this last question, in two words, is “not well.” Global shifts have almost always fanned economic conflict, created problems for economic management, and heightened diplomatic tensions. Sometimes they have erupted into military conflict. While the same need not be true this time, there is reason to worry that the current global shift is a source of economic and political risks. It is past due time to start thinking about both the nature of those risks and mechanisms for managing them.The causes and consequences of changes in economic fortune, both relative and absolute, probably constitute the central question of all of economic history, if not all of economics. One paper can do justice to neither the topic nor the literature. Rather than attempting to be comprehensive, I focus on a number of specific cases, those mentioned in the opening paragraph. While this requires me to touch on aspects of nearly a millennium of human history, my focus is mainly on the last two centuries, the period since the establishment of the Bank of Finland, the1 Prepared for the Bank of Finland’s 200th anniversary symposium, Helsinki, May 5-6, 2011.2 And to “rule the waves.”3 As originally advanced in Kindleberger (1973).event providing the occasion for this symposium. Coverage of these episodes is also necessarily selective and designed to highlight the themes sounded above.1.The Rise of the WestEconomic historians are unanimously of the view that Ming China was the leading economic power in 1400. No other country constructed the equivalent of the Great Wall or the Grand Canal. No other state or empire had a standing army with a million troops. China was known for its technological prowess and precocity – for its mastery of gunpower, printing, paper-making, and compasses. It was known for the long-distance commercial voyages of the great admiral Zheng He whicht served commercial purposes (many of his ships had private cabins for merchants) and also sought to extract tribute from other lands bordering the Indian Ocean.Two factors then combined to set on foot a global shift. First, the Ming Dynasty turned inward. Zheng He’s fleet was dismantled. Limits were placed on the size of newly-constructed ships. By the end of the 15th century, subjects of the Chinese empire were forbidden to construct ocean-going ships or to leave the country. The overland route west, the Silk Road, was all but closed to traffic. The Chinese met early European incursions by limiting contact to a handful of treaty ports.Why the Mings turned inward is disputed. One view is that curtailing contact with the outside world was a low-cost way of dealing with piracy and the Uighurs. Another is that from the middle of the 15th century the Mings had bigger problems close at hand, like their border dispute with what is modern-day Vietnam. Still another is that this was the ill-advised decision of a clutch of conservative officials concerned about the impact on China of foreign influence.But there is little disputing the consequences. China’s inward turn created space for other powers. Lack of contact with foreign ideas, the absence of foreign competition, and the smothering effects of tradition set China up for a long period of economic stagnation.The coincident factor was improved Western sailing, navigation and military technology. The key innovation was the caravel, a sailing ship developed by the Portuguese and then the Spanish that combined lateen (triangular) rigging, making it very maneuverable and able to sail up rivers, with square sails that made it very fast and able to cross oceans. Lateen sails came from the Arab lands, square ones from Northern Europe; the Iberians were strategically placed between the two influences. New navigational techniques developed by Arab, Indian and Jewish astronomers but systematized by the Portuguese allowed European ships to go anywhere. Finally, the Portuguese were quicker than others to adapt the use of canon to ocean-going vessels.Why Portugal, one might ask? As with the Internet, public-sector R&D played a role. Prince Henry the Navigator of Portugal founded a maritime academy that fostered many of these innovations. He established an observatory at Sagres to construct accurate tables on the sun’s declination.4The early voyages down the west coast of Africa were sponsored by the4From 1500 or so there was a growing accumulation of navigational data in a variety of countries (Spain, France, England), all of which saw the publication of practical pamphlets and guides on the subject.Portuguese crown (just as Columbus’ pioneering trans-Atlantic voyage was underwritten by Ferdinand and Isabella of Spain). The result was the Age of Exploration (sometimes referred, in less politically-correct terms, as the Age of Discovery), in which the Portuguese and Spanish found their way around Cape Horn to Asia and then across the Atlantic to the Americas.5While the Portuguese had a head start, the Spanish had a larger economy. The two quickly came into conflict over trading posts, trade rights, and other commercial prerogatives. There was an effort to divide the spoils – to create separate spheres of influence not unlike the Western and Soviet blocs during the Cold War or the possibility, sometimes mooted today, of Chinese and U.S. spheres of influence in Asia and the West. The first such effort, the Treaty of Tordesillas signed by Spain and Portugal in 1494, divided the newly discovered territories of Africa and the Western Hemisphere. The dividing line ran north-south along a meridian roughly down the middle of the Atlantic before bisecting what became modern-day Brazil. This was followed in 1524 by the Treaty of Zaragoza, which similarly divided Asia and the Pacific along a north-south meridian running roughly through the middles of Japan and Australia.6An unintended consequence of this spheres-of-influence strategy may be to permit the regional hegemon to grow fat and lazy. So it is said of Spain and Portugal following the conclusion of the two treaties.7This made room for hungry upstarts: England and theNetherlands. The Iberians were followed into the Indian Ocean by first the Dutch and then the English: the Dutch ended up controlling trading rights with much of modern-day Indonesia, the English with India. In the Western Hemisphere the Iberians were flanked to the north by the Dutch and, more importantly, English and French, who built their commercial empires on the basis of shipping and finance but in addition had manufactures (woolens) to export.The upstarts also relied on strong institutions – national champions that enjoyed public-sector support. In 1602 the Dutch States General established the world’s first joint-stockcompany, the Dutch East India Company, granting it not just a monopoly of trade with Asia but also the power to establish fortified trading posts, negotiate treaties, and wage defensive wars.8 The company established a centralized hub in Batavia (now Jakarta), organized nearly 5,000 voyages, and paid its shareholders an annual dividend approaching 20 per cent for twocenturies.9 5 Why Europe, more generally, one might ask? Was the Renaissance conducive to the systematization ofknowledge? Did the Black Death, by raising land-labor ratios, create surplus agricultural production that could be traded and higher living standards? These questions presumably deserve more than a footnote. At virtually the same time Queen Elizabeth granted a royal charter to the (English) East Asia Company, which like its Dutch competitor acquired monopoly rights and, eventually, a 6 The prod for this treaty was the conflict between the two countries over Malacca and the surrounding “spice islands” (the source of the region’s valuable spices). Portugal arrived first, establishing a fort at Malacca in 1511. Spain then arrived in the Moluccas from the east in 1521 as part of Magellan’s famous attempt to circumnavigate the globe, and Charles V sent another expedition to colonize the islands. There followed a year of fighting between the two countries. In 1524 the two kingdoms agreed to resolve the issue by drawing another meridian that would divide the world into two equal-sized hemispheres. To get it right, each crown appointed three astronomers, three pilots, and three mathematicians. 7 See Kindleberger (1994) and Landes (1998). 8 This, recall, was the age of mercantilism, when states sought to monopolize the trade of a region so as to generate monopoly profits which could then be used to strengthen the state’s finances and its ability to wage war. 9 Now there’s a risk premium for you.modern board of directors.10 Using Surat in India as a transit point between the Spice Islands and Europe, the East Asia Company was responsible for Britain establishing its foothold in India. These two trading concerns, as joint-stock companies and public-private partnerships, were important institutional innovations. They were the agents of the power shift from Southern to Northern Europe and of Europe’s growing influence and control over much of Southern Asia.This situation – two aspirants infringing on the turf of two established powers, and the Europeans all seeking to establish exclusive access to the minerals, precious metals, and high-value crop-lands of other regions (spice- and sugar-growing land in particular) – was a recipe for conflict among the imperialists and between the Europeans and the indigenous peoples with whom they made contact.11 In addition to nimble sailing ships and canon, the Europeans had on their side metallurgy (which furnished them with efficient swords and daggers) and infectious disease (which desimated previously isolated indigenous populations). In turn the imperialists were weakened by almost continuous internecine conflict. The rising Northern European powers fought for space and influence with both their Iberian predecessors and one another. When the English arrived in the Bandas and Moluccas, islands where cloves and nutmeg were grown, the Dutch drove them out by force.12 The Dutch fought with Sultan Agung, who headed a powerful state in central Java, over the establishment of Batang. They took Ceylon from Portugal along with most of that country’s Indian forts and trading stations. Similar stories could be told about the Western Hemisphere. Cooperation would have meant more surplus for the Europeans and indigenous peoples alike. But it was not to be.The Dutch and English, having come into conflict over foreign policy and commercial interests (it is not clear that there was a clear separation between the two matters in this period), skirmished in Europe as well. The Dutch also attracted the enmity of France, which sided with England in its mid-17th century conflict with the United Provinces and then used import tariffs to protect its infant sugar and cloth industries from Dutch competition.13 In the 18th century the French and English clashed over control of North America in the French and Indian Wars.14 Military means were used repeatedly to bolster trade and create mercantilist preserves free of foreign competition. One worries that it could happen again.2.The Great DivergenceThe industrial revolution transformed the world economy by launching per capita incomes on a sustained upward path unlike anything seen previously. It also constituted a global shift par excellence. It widened the gap in economic and military capabilities between European countries whose ambitions had been restrained by a fragile balance of power. It also transformed the conduct of warfare. Within Europe, Germany’s comparative advantage in the production of steel and, by implication, the construction of railways gave it a decisive advantage over France in the Franco-Prussian War of 1870-71. In the colonies, the invention of the Gatling gun, another10 A Royal African Company was later formed to take charge of trade in slaves, ivory and gold in Africa.11 The scramble for scarce resources and associated possibility for conflict will resonate, presumably, with Chinese officials concerned about their country’s dependence on imported raw materials.12 Helped importantly by their native allies.13 This, from the mid-17th century, being the age of high mercantilism.14 Leading to the Seven Years’ War in Europe and indirectly, it is often said, to the French Revolutionary Wars.byproduct of the industrial revolution, gave the Europeans a powerful advantage in their effort to secure colonial control of additional portions of Africa and Asia.15Thus, it is no coincidence that the industrial revolution was followed by the new imperialism of the second half of the 19th century: by the partition of Africa by the European powers and their further colonial expansion into Asia. Crude Marxian accounts sometimes explain this new wave of colonialism and imperialism as a function of the voracious appetite of 19th century industrial economies for raw materials and the desire of governments to secure exclusive access to the same.16 But modern economic histories cast doubt on the notion that empire paid: any benefits to the imperialists, including those associated with favored access to raw materials, were swamped by military and other costs.17What industrialization did was greatly enhance the ability of industrial nations to project power and control other lands.18 With the railway and the steamship (practical for ocean-going voyages in the second half of the 19th century, not incidentally coincident with the new imperialism), it became possible to deploy military force more quickly. Machined canonry (now breech rather than muzzle loaded) and rifles (notably the caplock rifled musket) were for the 19th century what steel swords and daggers had been for the 16th and 17th. These innovations were decisive, for example, in the First Opium War of 1839-42.19 With the Great Divergence in per capita incomes, it became possible for the industrial powers to raise larger and better equipped standing armies. European control of the interior of Africa or India might have been paper thin, but it would have been unimaginable in the absence of industrialization. Like 21st century Europeans who prefer to take part of their higher living standards in the form of increased leisure time, their 19th century predecessors sought to take a part in the form of colonial conquest.This desire was a source of frustration to countries late to the great global game, Germany in particular. With the growth of its industry, and its comparative advantage in military-relevant heavy industry in particular, Germany became as capable as any European power at mobilizing and projecting force. But the process of industrialization reached critical mass later than in Britain or France.20 German unification had to wait for Bismarck to incorporate the southern states. Thus, by the time Germany emerged as an industrial and military power of the first rank, the process of colonial partition was largely complete.Germany therefore had to content itself with a few remaining scraps in West Africa, East Africa and the Pacific. It pushed against French and Spanish control in North Africa, precipitating the First Moroccan Crisis in 1905 by insisting that France adopt an open door policy for its protectorate, to little avail. It was left to advance its expansionist aims in and around Europe, notably attempting to expand its influence over the declining Ottoman Empire by completing the Berlin-Baghdad Railway, something that in turn became a geopolitical15 The descendant of the hand-cranked Gatling gun was the automatic Maxim gun, invented in 1884.16 An interpretation that has obvious implications for China’s actions in Africa and elsewhere in the developing world. There is also the more sophisticated variant of the hypothesis due to Eric Williams (Williams (1966).17 For the balance sheet see Davis and Huttenback (1986).18 David Landes in his 1998 book and earlier writings makes this argument most forcefully.19 See for example Hacker (1977).20 The classic account being Clapham (1936).flashpoint.21 Some accounts describe Germany’s ambitions in terms of the need of an industrial economy to secure a reliable supply of energy and raw materials (oil in the case of the Ottoman Empire), something that will resonate with observers of China today. Most, however, understand it more in terms of naked imperial ambition.22 Be this as it may, the result was the tensions and tangled alliances that set the stage for World War I.Finance was enlisted not just in the construction of the Berlin-Baghdad Railway but more widely in the effort to advance geopolitical goals. Then like now, that influence might be more subtle than overt. Modern observers alarmed by the rise of sovereign wealth funds wonder whether those funds’ governmental masters are encouraging them to invest in ways that are geopolitically expedient as well as economically remunerative. Before World War I, they saw governments, like those of France and Germany, encouraging private lending to Czarist Russia or the Ottoman Sultan with the goal of alliance building. Hints were dropped that the government would take it as a favor if an investment bank underwrote bond issues on behalf of such borrowers on favorable terms.23 Sometimes governments might intervene directly to encourage or halt issuance on behalf of foreign governments. Between 1897 and 1901, for example, the French government intervened with the Crédit Lyonnais, discouraging it from issuing bonds on behalf of the Russian government until the Russian and French general staffs had agreed on the particular strategic railways to whose construction the proceeds would be put.Employing finance for military and strategic purposes meant that it was not always allocated in ways that maximized returns. The fact that the French and German governments regularly intervened in the operations of the Paris and Berlin markets, whereas the British government employed a more hands-off attitude, helps to explain why the rate of return on French and German lending was generally lower than comparable returns on British overseas investment.24 While financial might creates strategic opportunities for governments, in other words, exploiting those opportunities also has costs.25With governments intervening in private financial affairs before the fact, they also felt some compulsion to come to the aid of the bondholders if and when things went wrong. Gunboats might then be dispatched to collect payments from defaulting debtors. Just how But while Mitchener and Weidenmier (2005) argue for the importance of these “supersanctions,” they identify just 6 episodes of direct military intervention out of 43 default episodes spanning the 19th century. Other authors argue that when governments intervened militarily in response to default, they were in fact using financial events as a pretext for intervention desired on other grounds. They suggest that other mechanisms – ex ante monitoring by investment banks with reputations to protect and ex post exclusion from the bond market by a cohesive cartel of issuers – were more important for enforcing contracts.2621 See Jastrow (1917).22 Something to which today’s China, which prefers to keep a relatively low-key profile internationally, has not obviously fallen prey.23 For accounts of the practice see Feis (1930).24 This point is argued and documented in Fishlow (1986).25 Something for the managers of sovereign wealth funds to bear in mind.26 See inter alia Mauro, Sussman and Yafeh (2006) and Flandreau and Flores (2007).3. The Rise of the United StatesThe other global shift at this time was the rise of the United States. From an economic speck at the outset of the 19th century, the U.S. by 1914 had grown into the world’s largest economy and leading exporter. But while economic change was rapid, political adjustments lagged behind. The North American colonies had been settled by Europeans who had sought to distance themselves from the Old World. George Washington in his farewell address had emphasized the desirability of “as little political connection as possible” with foreign nations (while at the same time acknowledging the value of “extending” commercial relations).Isolationist instincts, in other words, ran deep. Even the Monroe Doctrine, which warned the European powers against attempting to advance their colonial ambitions in the country’s Latin American backyard, can be interpreted in isolationist terms: it promised as a quid pro quo that the U.S. would not participate in wars among the European powers. The notable exception was U.S. occupation of the Philippines resulting from the Spanish-American War. That the precipitating event that led the U.S. to disregard its long-standing tradition of non-interventionism was an incident on an island, Cuba, a scant 90 miles from the rising power’s shores is perhaps worth recalling (Taiwan being only 81 miles from the Chinese mainland).27 In defeating the Spanish, the U.S. in fact took control not just of the Philippines but also Guam and Puerto Rico. Whether this was a momentary fall from grace or an emerging economic power for the first time displaying geopolitical ambitions is disputed.28But there is no question that the U.S. was, by this time, seeking to more actively assert its economic interests. Before long it was seeking to alter the structure of international markets so that they worked to its advantage (or at least didn’t disadvantage it to the same extent). A long-standing bone of contention was that the trade credit required by U.S. exporters and importers was almost entirely denominated in sterling and sourced in London. This put U.S. producers and merchants at a competitive disadvantage; not only did they have to pay two commissions, one to their local bank and the other to its London correspondent, but they also bore the exchange risk. One of several rationales that combined in 1913 to cause the establishment of the FederalReserve System (overcoming another deep-seated American aversion, this one to concentrated financial power) was the desire to create a market in securitized trade credits (“tradeacceptances”) denominated in dollars and sourced domestically.29Almost immediately the Fed took steps to develop this market, passing the necessaryregulations while discounting acceptances and purchasing them outright. As a result of this initiative (and as a byproduct of disruptions to the London market caused by World War I), in a scant ten years the acceptance market in New York matched its rival in London in both size and liquidity.30 27 Cuba not having achieved independence in the second decade of the 19th century, it was effectively exempted from the Monroe Doctrine. The dollar became as a true international currency; by the mid-1920s central banks 28 On the first view, see Bemis (1962); proponents of the second include Kennedy (1987), Mead (1987) and Nye (1990). 29 As emphasized by Broz (1997). 30 The relevant document is provided by Eichengreen and Flandreau (2010).around the world held as large a fraction of the foreign exchange reserves in dollars as in sterling.31The U.S. competed with Britain throughout the 1920s in seeking to bring more countries into its financial orbit. As governments prepared to return to the gold standard, the Fed, in the person of Benjamin Strong, influential governor of the Federal Reserve Bank of New York, encouraged them to contract stabilization loans in New York rather than London.32 Receiving a stabilization loan was the first step in establishing ongoing relations with a financial center. But while he governor himself may have been strongly internationalist in orientation, the U.S. otherwise reverted to its previous stance of quasi-isolationism following the war. The Congress famously refused to approve President Wilson’s request to join the League of Nations. Not wishing to become entangled in the reparations dispute, the U.S. did not join the Bank for International Settlements in 1930 (although it did provide finance for its early operation). The country’s diplomats did little to slow the progress of German rearmament or otherwise to do anything to prevent the war clouds from gathering over Europe.U.S. tariff policy was inappropriate for what was now the world’s leading trading nation, a country with an interest in the maintenance of an open trading system that should have led by example. Here the greater villain was probably the Fordney-McCumber Tariff of 1922 rather than the Smoot-Hawley Tariff of 1930, but neither helped.33 The mistake was to allow trade policy to be politicized. Herbert Hoover ran for the presidency in 1928 on a platform that promised to raise tariffs on imports of farm products, agricultural prices having been depressed for much of the decade. Once the tariff bill got to the Congress, there was nothing to prevent members from adding all manner of protection for manufactures so as to build as wide a coalition as possible.34Yet to say that the United States disregarded the case for international economic cooperation would not be accurate. The Fed famously kept interest rates low in order to encourage capital to flow toward Britain and aid that country’s efforts to return to gold in 1924-5. It made a credit line available to the Bank of England.35 It hosted a meeting of central bankers on Long Island in 1927, where other countries holding sterling as reserves committed not to taking gold from the British. In the summer of 1931, with the spread of the financial crisis, President Hoover offered a moratorium on inter-allied war debt payments in order to facilitate a moratorium on German reparations.31 This from a starting point in 1914 where the dollar accounted for a negligible proportion of global reserves (Eichengreen and Flandreau 2009). Elsewhere I have suggested what the U.S. accomplished in ten years – moving from a point where its currency played no international role to one where it was the leading invoicing, investment and reserve currency – may also be possible for China (Eichengreen 2011).32 Chandler (1958) and Clarke (1967) document his efforts.33 With the U.S. not a member of the League of Nations, the League’s efforts to negotiate a tariff truce in the 1920s were to little avail.34 See Schattschneider (1935). The Fordney-McCumber Tariff had similarly been intended to raised depressed farm-gate prices but had also been expanded to provide protection for manufactures by the time it was passed by the Congress. When efforts turned to rolling back tariffs in the 1930s, a change in institutions, in the form of the Reciprocal Trade Agreements Act, made a substantial difference.35 One that, in the event, was not drawn.。

用人力资本学说解释里昂惕夫之谜
用人力资本学说解释“里昂惕夫之谜”一、里昂惕夫之谜根据传统的要素禀赋理论,战后美国出口的应是资本密集型产品,进口劳动密集型产品;但美国经济学家华西里·列昂惕夫采用投入产出法对战后美国对外贸易发展状况进行分析后,却发现,美国美国进口的是资本密集型产品,出口的是劳动密集型产品。
这与赫--俄模型刚好相反。
由于赫--俄模型已经被西方经济学界广泛接受,因此里昂惕夫的结论被称为"里昂惕夫迷"或"里昂惕夫反论"。
二、人力资本学说人力资本是体现在人身上的技能和生产知识的存量。
人力资本投资的收益或报酬在于体高一个人的技能和获利能力,在于提高市场经济和非市场经济中经济决策的效率。
现代西方经济学家认为劳动技能是社会投资于教育和培训的结果,技术熟练的劳动者可以象有形资本重复地取得收益那样不断地取得收入,因而把劳动技能称作人力资本。
将劳动技能资本化的方法是,将技术熟练的劳动者与非技术熟练的劳动者之间的收入差距,以利息率加以折算。
按此法计算出来的人力资本与有形资本相加,构成一国的资本总额。
人力资本说(Human Capital Theory)的主要代表人物有克拉维斯(Irving Kravis)、凯南(Peter Kenen)、基辛(Kessing)等人。
他们认为,一个国家或某一个人为其未来的长远发展所进行的投资,并不仅仅局限于表现为企业、厂房、机器、设备、技术发明等物质形态,同时在很大程度上也表现为在教育、训练、医疗、保健、卫生、社区服务等各种人力资源开发(Development of Human Resources)上的投入。
前者为物质形态的实物资本(Physical Capital),后者可以概括为人力资本(Human Capital)。
三、用人力资本学说对里昂惕夫之谜的解释由于美国研究与开发风气盛行,教育与职业训练制度完善,因此美国比较外国拥有更多的技术熟练的劳动者或人力资本。

incomeproducing:产生收入
CapitaCommercial Trust – Frequently Asked Questions•What is CapitaCommercial Trust?CapitaCommercial Trust or (“CCT”) is Singapore’s first commercial real estate investment trust (REIT). Its aim is to invest in commercial properties which are income producing.CCT will invest in and own seven commercial properties in Singapore comprising: - Capital Tower- 6 Battery Road- Starhub Centre- Robinson Point- Bugis Village- Golden Shoe Car Park- Market Street Car Park•What was the criteria for choosing these seven properties?The seven properties are commercial properties, or properties that are predominantly used as commercial properties, located in Singapore which are 100% owned by the Group.•What is a REIT?REIT stands for “Real Estate Investment Trust”.A REIT invests and owns property assets. From these assets, it will derive rentalincome. After paying certain property and administrative expenses, the REIT will pay out all, or substantially all, surplus income to unitholders.•How will CCT be set up?Subject to shareholders’ and regulatory approvals, this involves 3 steps:i) CapitaLand will transfer the seven properties to a real estate investmenttrust (REIT) called CapitaCommercial Trust (“CCT”)ii) CCT units will then be distributed FREE to CapitaLand shareholdersiii) CCT will be listed on the Singapore Stock Exchange via Introduction•By owning CCT units, what are the benefits to CapitaLand shareholders?CapitaLand aims to deliver more value to shareholders. Distributing FREE units in a real estate investment trust to shareholders will deliver to them a more tax efficient structure for holding investment properties. The benefits are as follow:i) High ‘dividend’ payout – Shareholders will receive a higher proportion of taxableincome from the seven properties than was the case under CapitaLand ownership: at least 90% of CCT earnings (and 95% for period from Distribution in specie to FY2005) will be distributed to unitholders.ii) Stable and attractive distributions (earnings) - CCT income will come from rental collected from the seven properties with quality tenants and long leases.iii) Tax transparency for Singapore tax residents and other qualifying unitholders -Unitholders who are Singapore citizens or permanent residents tax resident in Singapore will receive their income distributions without having tax deducted at source. Distributions will be taxed at the level of the Qualifying Unitholders at their applicable income tax rates.•How and when will income distribution be paid to unitholders?Any income distribution (in S$) will be paid from any income received by CapitaCommercial Trust after deducting all relevant costs on the Trust Level (debt interest payments, management fees etc) and the Property level (operating expenses etc.), i.e. taxable income.Taxable Income (if any) is distributed half-yearly for the periods ending 31 Dec and 30 June each year.The first distribution will be from the period of the date of Distribution in specie to 31 Dec 2004.For the period from the date of the Distribution in specie to financial year ending 31 Dec 2005, CCT will distribute 95% of its taxable income to Unitholders. Thereafter, CCT will distribute at least 90% of its taxable income, with the actual level of distribution to be determined at the Manager’s discretion.•Why is CCT only distributing 95% of its income, when other REITs give 100%?This provides CapitaLand with additional financial flexibility and greater cashflow management for working capital purposes.•Why is CapitaLand retaining 40% of CCT and not distributing all 100% to shareholders?•How are the interests of CapitaLand and unitholders aligned?In deciding how much of CCT to distribute, CapitaLand aimed to give shareholders as much of CCT as possible, whilst retaining a sufficiently important stake to:- Demonstrate their confidence in CCT after listing;- Align their interests as Manager of CCT with the interests of unitholders•How is CCT different from CapitaMall Trust (CMT)?Although both are REITs, CCT is Singapore’s first commercial real estate investment trust which will invest in seven commercial properties in Singapore. CMT invests in retail properties (ie. shopping malls).Also, CCT will be distributed free to CL shareholders while CMT was launched through an IPO.•How many CCT units will CapitaLand shareholders be receiving?Shareholders will receive 200 free CCT units for every 1,000 CapitaLand shares.•What will happen if shareholders receive odd lots of CCT units? (less than 1000 shares)CapitaLand is applying to the SGX to set up a temporary odd-lot trading counter. If shareholders receive less than a full lot, they can adjust their holdings to the desired level by buying more shares to round up to 1,000.•Do CapitaLand shareholders have to put in more money to own CCT units?CCT units will initially be distributed free to CapitaLand shareholders. When CCT is listed in the stock exchange, additional units may be purchased.•How can CapitaLand shareholders obtain more details of CCT?More details in the form of the Introductory Document explaining the establishment of CCT will be sent to CapitaLand shareholders shortly.It will provide shareholders with more details on CCT including the rationale for its establishment, as well as recommendations.•When will the Introductory Document be sent to CapitaLand shareholders?It will be sent to CapitaLand shareholders sometime in March 2004.•Will there be an Extraordinary General Meeting (EGM) for CapitaLand shareholders to approve the formation of CCT?Yes, an EGM is expected to be held in April 2004. CapitaLand shareholders will be informed.•Can CapitaLand shareholders vote in the Extraordinary General Meeting (EGM)?CapitaLand shareholders can vote in the EGM.•What are the key dates in the establishment of CCT?Despatch of Introductory Document – March 2004CapitaLand Extraordinary General Meeting (EGM) – April 2004Commencement of trading of CCT on SGX-ST – May 2004•Why do CapitaLand shareholders have to wait until May 2004 before CCT units are distributed to them and traded on the SGX?The waiting period is for CapitaLand to obtain the necessary shareholder and regulatory clearances for the transaction.•Can CPF funds be used to buy CCT after it is listed on the SGX?Yes, CCT is included under the CPF investment scheme. Once the units are listed in the Singapore Stock Exchange, investors could use their CPF Ordinary Account to purchase CCT units.TAXATION ISSUES•What is the tax treatment of the income distributions in Singapore?Unitholders who are Singapore citizens or permanent residents tax resident in Singapore will receive their income distributions without having tax deducted at source.Distributions will be taxed at the level of the Qualifying Unitholders (See question below) at their applicable income tax rates. This tax transparency offers Unitholders the benefit of pre-tax distributions.Distributions made to all other Unitholders will be subject to tax deducted at source at the prevailing corporate tax rate, which is currently 22.0%•What is tax transparency and which investors enjoy tax transparency?Tax transparency means that income tax is not imposed on CCT’s income in the hands of the trustee. For example, if 90% of the taxable income of the CCT is distributed to investors, that 90% portion of the taxable income would not be taxed in the hand of the trustee. Instead, you, as an investor, will pay tax on the distribution you received at your own marginal rate based on your tax bracket.Only qualifying Singapore tax residents have no tax deducted at source. Tax will be deducted at source from distribution made to non-qualifying unitholders. See table below:-Enjoy tax transparency (received pre-tax distribution)Taxed deducted at source (receivednet of taxdistribution)Singapore Citizens who are TaxResidents¸Permanent Residents who are TaxResidents¸CPF/SRS Funds¸Companies Incorporated and TaxResidents in Singapore¸Singapore branches of foreigncompanies that have obtainedspecific approval from IRAS toreceive distribution withoutdeduction of tax¸Non-corporate entities created orconstituted in Singapore, e.g.Statutory Board/ Non ProfitOrganizations, Town Councils¸Nominees/Sub accounts¸Joint Holders¸Other Holders, e.g. foreign entities¸•Would tax be imposed on capital gains when disposing of CCT units?It would depend on whether the gains are considered to be trading gains derived by the investor. If they are considered to be trading gains, the investor would be subject to Singapore income tax.•Would tax be imposed on CCT if it disposes of its properties?It would depend on whether the gains are considered to be derived by CCT from a trade or business of dealing in properties. If they are so considered, CCT would be subject to tax on the gains from the disposal at the Trust level, and investors can claim a credit for the tax paid by the trustee on the gains when the gains are distributed to them.CCT’s intention is to hold the properties for long term investment purposes.IMPORTANT NOTICEThe value of units in CapitaCommercial Trust (“CCT”) and the income derived from them may fall as well as rise. Units are not obligations of, deposits in, or guaranteed by, CapitaCommercial Trust Management Limited (as manager of CCT) (the “Manager”), CapitaLand Limited or any of their respective affiliates and an investment in the units are subject to investment risks, including the possible loss of principal amount invested.CCT unitholders have no right to request the Manager to redeem or purchase their units for so long as the units are listed on Singapore Exchange Securities Trading Limited (“SGX-ST”). It is intended that unitholders may only deal in their units through trading on the SGX-ST. The listing of the units on the SGX-ST does not guarantee a liquid market for the units.This presentation contains forward-looking statements.

人均收入英语作文Title: Exploring Per Capita Income: Understanding its Significance and Implications。
Per capita income, often referred to as income per person or per capita GDP, is a vital economic indicatorthat provides insights into the economic well-being and standard of living of a country's citizens. It is calculated by dividing the total national income of a country by its population. In this essay, we will delveinto the significance of per capita income, its determinants, and its implications for individuals and policymakers.Firstly, per capita income serves as a measure of the average income earned by individuals in a given country. It reflects the economic productivity of a nation and its ability to generate wealth for its citizens. Countries with higher per capita incomes generally offer better employment opportunities, higher wages, and improved access toessential services such as healthcare and education. Conversely, lower per capita income often indicates economic challenges such as poverty, unemployment, and limited access to resources.Several factors influence per capita income, including the level of economic development, productivity, investment, and distribution of wealth within a country. Developed countries tend to have higher per capita incomes due totheir advanced infrastructure, technological innovation,and diversified economies. On the other hand, developing countries may struggle to achieve comparable levels of per capita income due to factors such as inadequate infrastructure, limited access to education and healthcare, and reliance on primary industries.Additionally, government policies play a crucial rolein shaping per capita income. Policies that promote investment in human capital, infrastructure development,and innovation can contribute to higher productivity levels and ultimately increase per capita income. Moreover, initiatives aimed at reducing income inequality andpromoting social welfare can help improve the standard of living for all citizens and narrow the gap between the rich and the poor.Furthermore, per capita income has significant implications for individuals, households, and policymakers. For individuals, higher per capita income translates into greater purchasing power, improved quality of life, and increased opportunities for personal and professional growth. It enables individuals to afford better healthcare, education, housing, and leisure activities, thereby enhancing their overall well-being and satisfaction.Households also benefit from higher per capita income as it allows them to meet their basic needs and invest in their future. Families with higher incomes can provide better nutrition, education, and healthcare for their children, setting them on a path towards upward mobility and socioeconomic advancement. Moreover, increased household income contributes to higher levels of consumer spending, which stimulates economic growth and creates employment opportunities.From a policymaker's perspective, per capita income serves as a crucial benchmark for assessing the effectiveness of economic policies and identifying areasfor improvement. Governments often set targets for increasing per capita income as part of their broader development agendas. By implementing policies that foster economic growth, enhance productivity, and promote social inclusion, policymakers can work towards raising per capita income and improving the overall standard of living for their citizens.In conclusion, per capita income is a fundamental indicator of economic prosperity and individual well-being. It reflects the average income earned by individuals in a country and provides insights into the overall standard of living. By understanding the determinants and implications of per capita income, policymakers can formulate effective strategies to promote economic growth, reduce poverty, and enhance the quality of life for all citizens.。

Selection and peer-review under responsibility of RIUDSKey Words: Income Distribution, Human Capital, Environmental Quality, EKC (Environment Kuznets Curve);1. IntroductionSince the reformation of 1978, the economy has been growing rapidly with the annual GDP growth rate reaching a peak level of 9.8% in China. However, this impressive economic performance has al so placed traumatic levels of stress on environment and natural resources. What is more, China’s environmental problems are currently exploding in size and complexity. An investigation of World Bank revealed that about eight to twelve percent of Chinese GDP is consumed with paying huge costs of environmental crisis and that thirty of the most polluted cities in the world were located in China. Not surprisingly, the GINI coefficient has reached 0.48 in China, which is far above the international red line (0.4).*Corresponding author. Tel.: +86-23-65106484; Fax: +86-23-65106484.E-mail address: yangjun@1690Yang Jun et al. / Energy Procedia 5 (2011) 1689–1696The current studies suggest that income distribution is one of the key factors which can significantly affect environmental quality. Therefore, in order to understand and solve the emerging environmental problems in the fast-growing economy in China, it is important to study the relationship between income distribution and environment quality, specifically the individual characteristics in China. At the same time, this paper has also provided a representative case for developing countries regarding the study of the relationship between income distribution and environmental quality.2.Literature ReviewThe study of the relationship between economic development and environmental problems was proposed during the negotiation of NATFA (North A merican Free Trade Area) and the early study was made by Grossman and Krueger (1991) [1]. Grossman and Krueger (1991) concluded that the pollution level would increase as GDP Per Capita rises in less developed regions, but decrease in the highly-developed regions. Later, Panayotou (1993) [2] proposed the Environmental Kunzites Curve (EKC) to illustrate how environmental quality would be deteriorated in accordance with an increase in GDP Per Capita, and improved when income level rises to a certain degree. At present, there is a consensus in academia that EKC exists in the current economy, but the relative inflexion point, which is the bottom of the curve of EKC, will not appear spontaneously. Therefore, it is valuable to discuss factors which can accelerate or slow the coming of the inflexion point of EKC, and income distribution is one of the most important factors which can affect the inflexion significantly.Firstly, this paper reviews such literatures which consider that an imbalance in income distribution is detrimental to the improvement of environmental quality. Boyce (1994) [3] publishes the pioneering study in this scope and concludes that the rich would have always had more social power and prefer to consume more high-polluting goods but bear less responsibility for the corresponding pollution cost, since the imbalanced distribution of social power has always resulted from an unequal income distribution, therefore, the greater the income distribution differential, the worse the environmental quality. Martinez-Alier ˄1995˅[4] has classified environmental goods into two categories: the environment-luxury which is low in demand income elasticity and the environment-necessary which is higher, He concludes that as the income distribution gap rise, the following would likely occur: 1) the demand of the environment-luxury goods would increase, 2) the supply would also increase because the poor tend to sell cheap, and 3) the imbalance of income distribution is detrimental to the improvement of environmental quality. From the perspective of the go-between theory in democratic voting, Magnani (2000) [5] proposes that, since the demand of the environment-goods is more flexible, therefore, as the income per capita rises, the structure of goods shall be changed to be environment-friendly, and environmental quality shall be improved. However, if the inco me distribution gap continues to increase, the relative income of the go-between shall be decreased and they would pay less to environment-friendly goods and the inflexion of EKC shall be delayed. Marsiliani and Thomas (2002) [6] adopt both the static and inter-temporal models to find that a larger income distribution gap reduces the ability of the go-between and the equilibrium of the political economy shall pay less attention to environmental protection. Torras and Boyce (1998) [7], Boyce et al. (1999) [8], Maganani (2000) [5], Gawande et al. (2001) [9], and Bimonte (2002) [10] adopt the GINI index coefficient to measure the gap in income distribution and confirm that a greater gap in income distribution would deteriorate environmental quality. Bimonte (2002) [10] also finds that the balance of income distribution would accelerate the coming of the inflexion of EKC.Next, we consider the literature which maintains that the effect of a bigger gap in income distribution upon environmental quality is uncertain. Scruggs (1998) [11] questions the assertions of Boyce (1994) [3] firstly, he considers that income distribution has nothing to do with environmental policy upon real democratic politics, but he also considers that based on the social paradigm propose d by Hofrichter andYang Jun et al. / Energy Procedia 5 (2011) 1689–16961691Reif (1990) the relation between income distribution and environment quality should be reversed when the income per capita reaches a certain level. Therefore, he concludes that there is an uncertain relationship between income distribution and environment quality which would be affected by factors such as different preferences regarding environmental quality, relative policy and so on. F rom the discussion on the relation between pollutant emissions and income distribution, Ravallion et a l. (2000) [12] believes that there is a reciprocal relationship between income distribution and environmental quality and the relation would be weaken over the long-term. Heerink et al. (2001) [13] makes an empirical study about the relation between individual income level and environmental quality and his conclusions contradict the arguments of Boyce (1994), and the study suggests that the imbalance of income distribution would be inclined to improve the regional environmental quality. Scruggs (1998) [11] applies the data of GEMS (Global environmental monitoring system) and seventeen OECD countries’ data to the econometrical model and found that there would be an uncertain relation between GINI coefficient and environmental quality. Mattieu and Andre (2008) [14] reach the similar conclusions by the panel data of developing countries from 1988 to 2003. However, Heerink et al. (2001) [13] concludes that the imbalance in income distribution may help improve environmental quality.In summary, the consensus regarding the relationship between income distribution and environmental quality has not been reached among academia, and many factors such as income distribution and human capital can significantly affect the relationship. Brasington and Hite (2005) [15] and Jalan (2007) [16] consider that the public would pay increasing attention to environmental protection in conjunction with the rise of human capital; on the other hand, Costantini and Monni (2008) [17], Serkan Gurluk (2009) [18] reach the conclusions that environmental quality would be improved by the technology advancement brought about by the increasing of human capital. According to the above literature review, there are few studies on the relation between income distribution and environmental quality fro m the perspective of human capital. Therefore, this paper structures the model containing income distribution, environmental quality and human capital, and discusses whether human capital can affect the relation between environmental quality and income distribution significantly, and then applies Chinese panel data to the model in order to provide the empirical evidence for the real cause of the current pollution and the appropriate solution in China.3. Model, Data and Method3.1. StructureIt is known that there are many factors which can affect environmental quality significantly, such as: human capital, technology advancement, industry structure, urbanization and so on. Therefore, based on the classical econometrical model proposed by Grossman and Krueger (1995) [19], this paper incorporates income distribution, human capital, technology advancement, industry structure and urbanization into the model to describe how income distribution exactly affects environmental quality. The environmental quality determined equation is as follows:it it it it it it it it it i it UB Str RD HC ID I I I C EQ H T T T T E D D D 432133221 (1)1692 Yang Jun et al. / Energy Procedia 5 (2011) 1689–1696The existing studies suggest that there is a nonlinear relation between income distribution and economic growth, and education expense is one of the important factors which can affect income distribution remarkably. Therefore, this paper structures the model to describe the income distribution determined equation as follows:it it it it it i it Edu HC I I B ID [O O J J 21221 (2)In the equation (1) and (2), i stand for the i province, t for the year, EQ for the environmental quality, ID describes income distribution, HC is the human capital, RD is the technology advancement, Str is the industry structure, UB is the rate of urbanization and Edu is variable of education expense, C and B are special sectional effects respectively.According to equation (1) and (2), this paper has structured the simultaneous equations which can precisely reflect the relation between income distribution and environmental quality, and then incorporate the variable of human capital to find a potential way to improve EKC.3.2. DataSerial data is always applied to the existing literature on the relationship between income distribution and environmental quality in China. However, there exist not only serial features but also sectional features in the form of EKC; therefore the sole serial or sectional data cannot provide an accurate result. Accordingly, this paper adopts panel data which contains Chinese provin cial data from 1996 to 2008 to make an empirical study. Due to the change of administrative districts, this paper removes the data of Chongqing in 1996, and the final data includes 31 sections and 13 series and 402 samples. All the data are from < Chinese Statistical Yearbook >, < Chinese Statistical Yearbook on Environment >, < China Population and Employment Statistics Yearbook >, < China Yearbook of Rural Household Survey > and the website of National Bureau of Statistics of People’s Republic of China.As for income distribution, it is popular to adopt GINI coefficients to measure the gap of income distribution. Based on the non-equal calculation method proposed by Thomaset al (2003) [20], this paper adopts the formulation as equation (4) to calculate both urban and rural GINI coefficients.¦¦ N i j i j j i i p y y P 2111G P (3) ¦ ¦ 1111)1(2y G N i i i N i i i V W W (4)In equation (3) and (4), G is for the GINI coefficient, μ stands for the expected value of the total income, N for the total population of the group divided, y i for the average income and p i for the proportion of the population of the i group in the whole, W i for the proportion of the whole population grouped in the whole and V i is the accumulation of y i from 1 to i.As for the GINI coefficient of the total number of residents, we cannot get the very value from the existing investigation. Therefore, this paper adopts the method proposed by Sundrum (1999) [21] to calculate GINI coefficient for the total number of residents as equation (5)PP P P P P P 1221222111G p p G p G p (5)Yang Jun et al. / Energy Procedia 5 (2011) 1689–16961693 In equation (5), G1 and G2 are for urban and rural GINI coefficients respectively, P1 and P2 are for the proportion of urban population and rural population in the w hole, μ and μ1and μ2 are for the value of the income per capita of the whole, urban and rural residents. Population proportion and income per capitause the year-end statistics in order to keep the consistence of statistic time.As for environmental quality, there are many pollutants which are measured differently. Therefore, it is difficult to find a comprehensive index to describe environmental quality. According to the existing research, this paper adopts industry wastewater and industry waste gas to reflect regional environmental quality, and structures the index of environmental quality (EQ) by the natural logarithm of the value of industry wastewater and industry waste gas.As for human capital, this paper adopts the index of education-year per capita proposed by Barro andLee (2000) [22], and calculates the index by the method of adding all the relative education-year by the weights which are that primary education is charged for six years, junior education for nine year, high school for twelve years and university education for sixteen years.Since the absolute indexes of the output and input are always restricted by regional development, this paper takes the natural logarithm of the values of the relative indexes such as GDP per capita. As for theindex of technology advancement, this paper takes the value of the proportion of the R & D fees in GDPto make the measurement, and the index of industry structure (Str) is measured by the proportion of the second industry’s output-value in GDP, and the index of the rate of urbanization by the value of the proportion of agricultural population in the whole, and the index of education input by the proportion of education expense in the overall financial expenditures.3.3.MethodSince there are endogeneity among variables in the model specifications and heteros cedasticity among different provincial estimating equations, this paper adopts the three-stage least square method to estimatethe simultaneous equations which can accommodate the relation among equations into the estimation and generate the most accurate result. It is discovered that only the variables of EQ and ID are endogenous,and in accordance with order and rank conditions of the model reorganization, we can conclude that the model is over-identified and the coefficients are estimable.4.E conometrical Res ult4.1.The Discussion on the Result of Environmental quality Determined EquationFirstly, this paper analyses the relationship between environmental quality and income per capita. The empirical study suggests that the cubic term of the income per capita cannot pass the significance test which denies that there is the “N” curve of the relation ship between environmental quality and income per capita, according to Chinese provincial data. After removing the variable of the cubic term of income per capita, we find that the coefficients are 6.7967(2.76) for I and -0.3706(-2.81) for I2 in the regression equation (ĉ), and 3.2475(1.61) for I and -0.2007(-1.86) for I2 in regression equation (Ċ), which all passthe significance test at the 10% level. We observe that the variable of income per capita displays inverted“U” relationships with the emissions of ind ustrial wastewater and industrial waste gas which remarkably confirms the theory of Environment Kuznets Curve. As for the income distribution, the coefficients estimated are -17.2927(-5.77) in regression equation (ĉ) and -9.7857(-3.98) in regression equation (Ċ) which all pass the significance test at the 1% level, which reveals that the larger gap of income distribution has restricted the emissions of pollutants, which provides the evidence for the relative academia subject.1694Yang Jun et al. / Energy Procedia 5 (2011) 1689–1696Regarding the effects of human capital on environmental quality, the econometric result suggests that the coefficients are -0.1142(-1.06) and -0.4451(-5.06), which confirm that human capital is negative correlative with environmental quality. Therefore, it is concluded that increasing h uman capital can reduce the emissions of pollutants and improve environmental quality.Table 1.

The coefficients of RD are -2.3399(-1.75) in regression equation (ĉ) and -2.5298(-1.74) in regression equation (Ċ) which confirm the assertion of Grossman and Krueger (1995) [19] that technology advancement can improve environmental quality.

At last, the coefficients of urbanization are0.4331(1.91) in regression equation (ĉ) and 0.4721(2.46) in regression equation (Ċ), which reveals thatthe urbanization is also one of the important factors which can worsen environmental quality in China.4.2.The Discussion on Income Distribution Determined EquationIn the econometric model, the coefficients are 0.2772(2.04) for “I” and -0.0123(-2.08) for “I2” in regression equation (ĉ), and 0.2773(2.04) and -0.0123(-2.08) in regression equation (Ċ) which all passesthe significance test at 5% level. Therefore, this empirical study confirms the primary claim that there isthe inverted “U” relation between incom e distribution and economic growth.As for the variable of human capital and education input, the coefficients are -0.0234(-5.79) for HCand -0.7711(-7.10) in equation (ĉ) and (Ċ) which all pass the significance test at the 1% level, and sincethe coincidence of the econometric result exists in both regression equations, there are robust effects on income distribution derived from the human capital and education inputs. Therefore, the results reveal that increasing the human capital and education inputs can improve environment remarkably.5.ConclusionsThis paper structures the econometric model including income distribution determined equation and environmental quality determined equation, and applies provincial data from 1996 to 2008 to do the relative empirical study in China. At last, it is concluded that: 1) there is a negative relationship between income distribution and environmental quality, 2) the increase of human capital can improve environmental quality and reduce the gap of income distribution, and 3) the change of industrial structureand the enhancement of scientific research and the urbanization are also the important factors which can remarkably affect environmental quality.From the econometric result, we also find that the provinces where there is the greater gap of income distribution are always in western China, which typically has a lower level of economic development. Inorder to reduce the gap of income distribution and accelerate economic growth, a policy of local industrialization is always being promoted in China, which has the effect to worsening the regional environment. However, unlike the view point proposed by Scruggs (1998) [11] which considers that therich pay more attention to environmental quality; this paper considers it to be an inappropriate development paradigm which has worsen the regional environmental quality.The empirical study also reveals that the accumulation of human capital and increasing of educationinput are the most important factors which can reduce the gap of income distribution and improve environmental quality. Based on the endogenous economic growth theory, it is agreed that the accumulation of human capital is among the most powerful resources for economic growth. Therefore,this paper suggests the proposal that more investment in human capital is the key to solving the dilemma between the fast growing economy and worsening environmental quality as well as the ever widening gapof income distribution.AcknowledgementsThis paper is supported by the Fundamental Research Funds for the Central Universities (GrantNo. CDJSK10 02 10).1696Yang Jun et al. / Energy Procedia 5 (2011) 1689–1696References[1] Grossman, G.M.,Krueger,A.B.
