摘要：
Hunan is a major agricultural province in China. This paper focuses on the international competitiveness of Hunan agricultural products. Firstly, we evaluate its competitiveness in achievement by using three indexes (MS, TC and RCA), and find that the main agricultural products of Hunan had comparatively strong international competitiveness. Then, its competitiveness in strength is analyzed from two aspects (price and quality), and the conclusion is that the competitiveness mainly come from the low price. Further, we discuss its competitiveness in potential based on the diamond model of Michael Porter, and think that the main agricultural products of Hunan do not have advanced and durative competitive potential, and its existing competitiveness in achievement and strength only originate from the labor resources advantage, not technological, marketable or political advantage. At last, this paper points out that strengthening government support, pulling technological innovation, extending industrial chain and optimize exporting structure are crucial measures to improve and preserve the competitiveness of Hunan agricultural products.

摘要：
Hunan is a major tobacco export province in China. This paper focuses on the international competitiveness of Hunan tobacco. Firstly, we evaluate its competitiveness in achievement by using CMS model and index of RCA, and find that Hunan tobacco had comparatively strong international competitiveness. But compared with the other main exporting commodities, its international competitiveness presented a downward tendency. Then, its competitiveness in strength is analyzed from the angle of the ratio of export and import price, and the conclusion is that the international competitiveness of Hunan tobacco mostly came from the low price. Further, we discuss its competitiveness in potential based on the diamond model of Michael Porter, and find that Hunan tobacco had certain comparative advantages in soil, labor force, related & supporting industries and domestic demand, but at a disadvantage in policies and technologies. At last, this paper supplies some crucial methods to improve and preserve the competitiveness of Hunan tobacco.
摘要：
The anti-competitive effect of vertical integration is a main issue discussed in antitrust field. Based on the characteristics of Chinese aluminum industry and the vertical merging behavior of Chinalco, this paper discusses the anti-competitive effect of forward integration by a two-phase game model with upstream monopoly firms. The result shows that vertical integration has obvious foreclosure effect on the other downstream independent firms when Chinalco merged with downstream aluminum firms. But, this effect became weaker when the monopoly degree of Chinalco in upstream market is reduced. The asymmetry of entrance and exit barriers of aluminum causes the market transmission mechanism of up/down-stream prices out of work, which deteriorates the destinies of aluminum firms further. The foreclosure effect and the failure of transmission mechanism supply opportunities for Chinalco to merge aluminum firms. The long-term goal of Chinalco's vertical integration is to control scarce bauxite resources as far as possible and to use the anti-competitive effect of upstream monopoly to form the monopolistic advantage on the deep processing of aluminum products.
摘要：
The role of intra-industry trade in the contemporary international trade is becoming increasingly prominent. This paper focused on relations between intra-industry trade in Chinese manufacturing and Chinese economic growth. The main methodologies used were Cointegration Regression, Error Correction Model, Granger Causality Test and Variance Decomposition. Through empirical analysis, we found that economic growth was positively related to Intra-Industry Trade in Chinese manufacturing both in the long term and in the short time; the relations between intra-industry trade and economic growth were a two-way Granger causality. Finally, we depicted the mutual contribution rates between them.
摘要：
Intra-industry trade has become a main trade form in recent years. This paper focused on the empirical work on the determinants of intra-industry trade in Chinese Manufacturing. We studied the determinants of intra-industry trade in Chinese Manufacturing by considering the country characteristics and industry characteristics synchronously. Based on the regression analysis, we found that the level of intra-industry trade in Chinese Manufacturing was positively influenced by per capita income, while the influence of scale economies and foreign direct investment were negative.
