An analysis of the proposed Dutch yardstick mechanismBogetoft, Peter; Mikkers, Misja C.; Halbersma, Rein; Agrell, Per J. (København, 2007)[Flere oplysninger][Færre oplysninger]
Resume: Health care provision is undergoing major reforms in Europe as a reaction to rapidly increasing expenditure and lowered political acceptance to commit public finance to cover the deficits. The Dutch government will decide in 2007 if the current budget system will be replaced by a more competitive mechanism, based on the yardstick regulation principle by Shleifer (1985). One of the proposed systems for the reform can be compared to a revenue-cap implementation of a multi-product cost-yardstick mechanism. The redistribution of the sector’s relevant cost is made in proportion to the individual hospitals share of total weighted output. No regulation is made of the multi-lateral contractual relations between users, insurers and hospitals. The scaling weights are updated periodically for new services and as a function of observed excess demand (waiting lists). The mechanism is shown to provide cost-reducing (effort-inducing) incentives for profit-maximizing rational agents in a single-period bargaining game. The game also shows that the regulation acts as a countervailing power for the insurers to reinforce bargaining power. The local distortion of the output profile induced by the regulation is a function of demand elasticity and cost function convexity. In case the revenue target is not binding, no welfare loss is incurred. The regime also provides incentives for cost-reducing investments in the short and the long run. These incentives manifest themselves in local reallocations of output to more efficient producers. The analysis shows that care should be taken in the updating of the weights as to provide incentives for service innovation, as well as to guarantee convergence of the price system. Although this requires econometric analyses, the alternative with a cost-based yardstick is considered superior to a revenue-based ditto for this application.

How The Changing Terms of Competition in Global Markets are Creating New Possibilities For Danish CompaniesBorrus, Michael; Zysman, John (Berkeley, 1997)[Flere oplysninger][Færre oplysninger]
Resume: Globalism has become an emblem for a whole series of dramatic changes in the international economy. The hyperbole in the media and popular novels that suggests a whirling era of giant companies, shifting money, and hapless governments, often hides the distinctive features of changing markets. This paper proposes that recent changes in the organization of production and product development are altering the terms of competition in many world markets and creating significant global opportunities for Danish firms. Those opportunities promise to enhance the development of Danish industry and employment. But there are risks. The new opportunities lie both in the new terms of competition that are observed in altered processes of product and component development and in the cross-national production networks that permit small companies to seize these opportunities. We label as “Wintelism” the new terms of competition and the new competitive strategies; we call the new organization of production Cross-national Production Networks (CNPNs). New risks lie in the accelerated pace of product and process development that make it harder and more essential to correctly judge technical developments, competitor strategies, and customer possibilities. The Danish policy question is whether the set of institutions and arrangements that constitute its industrial “market and policy logic”—or to use a different vocabulary, its National System of Innovation—is able to support the pursuit of the opportunities that “Wintelism” and Cross National Production Networks (CNPNs) create.

Different Perceptions of a Place Brand by Diverse Target GroupsZenker, Sebastian; Knubben, Evelyn; Bechmann, Suzanne C. (Frederiksberg, 2010)[Flere oplysninger][Færre oplysninger]
Resume: compete strongly with each other for attracting tourists, investors, companies, or talents. Place marketers therefore focus more and more on establishing the city as a brand and to promote their city to its different target groups. But the perception of a city (brand) can differ dramatically between those groups. Thus, place branding research should emphasize much more the city brand perceptions of the different target groups and develop strategies for cities on how to build an advantageous place brand architecture vis-à-vis its stakeholders. In this regards, we show in two empirical studies – 40 qualitative in-depth-interviews (Study 1) and an online qualitative open-ended-question survey with 334 participants (Study 2) – using network analysis the important discrepancies between the city brand perceptions in the mental representation of different target groups for the example of the city of Hamburg. Furthermore, practical implications for place marketers are discussed. URI: http://hdl.handle.net/10398/8266 Filer i denne post: 1

Om økonomi i Batailles generelle økonomiSørensen, Asger (København, 2005)[Flere oplysninger][Færre oplysninger]
Resume: Til belysning af Batailles såkaldte generelle økonomi redegøres for nogle grundlæggende præmisser for økonomi og for kritikken af dem. Det vises hvordan Bataille inddrager energiens kredsløb gennem univers, natur og samfund i økonomien, ligesom han fastholder det subjektive begær i den indre erfarings perspektiv. Der redegøres for Bataille genrelle økonomi som politisk økonomi, og den sammenlignes med post-moderne begrundelser for hhv. forbrugskapitalisme og begærs kommunisme. Det vises, at Bataille undslipper dem begge, men at den generelle økonomi som politisk økonomi er et modsigelsesfyldt og umuligt projekt. URI: http://hdl.handle.net/10398/6371 Filer i denne post: 1

Resume: I vort forskningsprojekt ”Økonomisk vækst på landet” stod i indledningen til ansøgningen: ”I 2007 forventes verdens bybefolkning for første gang i verdenshistorien at blive større end landbefolkningen (UN-HABITAT, juli 2006). Også i Danmark har der i de sidste 10-15 år været en betydelig tilflyt-ning til landets største byer og til områder inden for pendlingsafstand af disse byer, mens folketal-let i mange landkommuner er stagneret eller gået ned.” Denne udvikling er fortsat, men hvad betyder det for den økonomiske vækst på landet?

Lyck, Lise (Frederiksberg, 2013)[Flere oplysninger][Færre oplysninger]
Resume: I 2011 blev det meddelt, at EU vil give match-finansiering til en forundersøgelse af mulige samfundsmæssige konsekvenser af en etablering af en Øresundsmetro, det vil sige EU vil matche finansieringen fra Københavns Kommune og Malmø Stad. Forundersøgelsen omfatter en række delrapporter med relation til Visionsrapporten: ”Øresundsmetro mellem København og Malmö – en shuttle, der gør København og Malmö til bydele i samme by” (Palludan fremtidsforskning, 2012). Visionsrapporten skal ses i sammenhæng med den vækstdagsorden, der er blevet præsenteret i Københavns Kommuneplan og Malmøs oversigtplan, hvor intentionen er, at København og Malmø skal blive en sammenhængende metropol, hvor vækst og livskvalitet går hånd i hånd (Københavns kommuneplan og Malmø oversigtplan, 2012), og hvor København og Malmøs målsætning er et godt hverdagsliv, grøn vækst samt en økonomisk udvikling baseret på viden og erhverv. En etablering af en Øresundsmetro tænkes besluttet omkring 2025 og klar til anvendelse 2030-2032. Der er med andre ord tale om et projekt, der ligger et stykke ud i fremtiden og om et projekt, hvortil der knytter sig en række usikkerhedsfaktorer. Visionsrapporten opererer derfor med scenarier, da der ikke meningsfuldt kan skønnes en udvikling, der kan baseres på ekstrapolation. URI: http://hdl.handle.net/10398/8807 Filer i denne post: 1

(Challenges and Prospects of Value-based Intercultural Marketing)Glückstad, Fumiko Kano; Josiassen, Alexander (Frederiksberg, 2016)[Flere oplysninger][Færre oplysninger]
Resume: This challenge session aims at establishing an interdisciplinary research framework integrating the conventional crosscultural marketing research, psychological theoretical models of consumer behaviors and the contemporary business data analytics technologies derived from the Artificial Intelligence research. In this paper, we first summarize challenges identified, due to the modern globalization trend, in the conventional data analytics and consumer segmentation methods that have been used in the cross-cultural consumer behavior research. We further discuss some of the prospects of this challenge session by highlighting the importance of integrating the interpersonal aspects of value-based consumer analysis and psychological aspects of consumer behavior theories into the contemporary Big Data research employing various Artificial Intelligence technologies. Finally, the paper introduces a theoretical framework applied to the domain of tourism, which will be employed in a large scale international research project currently under preparation.
