Labor Underutilization

The investigation of labor is a key aspect of population research, and labor accounting, as its foundation, is an important means to judge the degree of economic development and monitor the changes of the labor market, having always been a focus of scholarly research. At present, the sharing economy is on the rise worldwide and influences labor accounting. In this paper, starting from the context of the sharing economy and the current situation of labor accounting, several important aspects of labor accounting will be discussed. In the context of the sharing economy, household subsistence service production is to be included in the production accounting boundary, which is the root of the changes in labor accounting. On this basis, the following findings are drawn. (1) The scope of accounting for employment should be expanded, which puts higher demands on the labor accounting method. (2) Working time should be remeasured, especially indicators based on pay time. (3) Finally, the design of indicators in labor underutilization also requires the formation of new ideas, especially unemployment should be redefined. Finally, in view of the current status of labor accounting in China, policy suggestions for future improvement under the sharing economy are put forward.

Looking Back

In recent years, the problems of environmental pollution and resource shortage have increased year by year, and the topic of sustainable development has aroused widespread concern. The simple sustainable ideas in Chinese traditional culture have made important contributions to the harmonious coexistence between people and nature in ancient China. By analyzing China’s simple sustainable ideas, the author discovered the holistic view in the idea of ‘Nature and Humanity’, the frugal view of the ‘Using wisely’ idea, the concept of benevolence in the thought of ‘love of all people and all things’, the ecological view in the thought of ‘things are not endless’ and the view of life in the thought of ‘Taoism follows nature’, these five perspectives provide systematic sustainable ideas for modern furniture. This article will analyze these five ideas, combined with the development of contemporary society and the development of modern sustainable ideas, looking back on the current status of modern furniture design, so as to explore the specific application of modern furniture design under the simple sustainable ideas and provide new ideas for the sustainable design of modern furniture.

The current state of the national economy means that businesses need to constantly look for ways to improve their efficiency and find new ideas to address their shortcomings. The problem of improving the financial condition of the enterprise and finding ways to improve the financial condition of the enterprise is primarily related to the mechanism for assessing the financial condition of the enterprise. The study of the financial condition of the enterprise gives an advantage to the business entity among competitors, allows to identify shortcomings in the activities of the enterprise and to form methods to improve its activities. Both internal and external factors have a significant impact on the financial condition of the enterprise. Since the internal and external environment is constantly changing, so business is characterized by uncertainty. The article considers the specifics of the analysis of the financial condition and prospects of economic development of the outsourcing company. The author generalizes the concept of "financial condition of the enterprise" and substantiates the importance of a comprehensive study of its evaluation indicators. Based on the analysis of the financial condition of Corplex LLC identified promising ways of economic development of the studied outsourcing company.

Background/Context The introduction of a racial equity policy provided an opportunity for one school district to examine its systems. The policy addressed structural inequity, as well as cultural literacy issues, internal personal biases, and other power dynamic differences in a historically impacted city. Researchers from a local research-practice policy partnered with the district Director of Equity to support the implementation of a racial equity policy that could be informed by data and research. Purpose/Objective The purpose of this study was to investigate if early warning indicators, specifically indicators of organizational readiness and a Director's leadership skills, could guide the implementation of a racial equity policy. Research Design The study explored using two instruments adapted from Adaptive Leadership to provide iterative feedback on the implementation of a new, challenging policy. Through development of an interview protocol that included potential leading indicators as well as qualitative prompts focused on readiness challenges and successes, the research team and Director met every three weeks to generate data and reflect on preliminary themes. Findings/Results The team found that the indicators of organizational readiness and leadership skill were helpful in informing on the current status and developing new ideas and scenarios to ease implementation of the policy. The qualitative data yielded themes highlighting critical tensions and focus areas essential for practitioners to consider when implementing a racial equity policy. Conclusions/Recommendations The primary implication of the study is that leaders and researchers need to focus on systems-level organizational work and the development of leadership skills. Leaders must anticipate district and school staff defaulting to technical rather than adaptive solutions, especially when addressing the goal of equity. While technical solutions are expedient and comfortable, they will not lead to true or continuous improvement. Moreover, the professional development work required is not singular or temporary, but rather embedded work, likely over many years. Also critical is team learning through authentic conversations making space for individuals’ lived experiences. A final step for developing systems-thinking is iteratively defining the metrics each office and school should be using to support this work formatively. As districts engage in such efforts, a focus on proximal, process-based measures will be more immediately helpful, particularly measures for staff, and not necessarily student data.

Peer to Peer sharing economy has tremendous potential for decentralized innovation and new ventures in a developing country like India but apart from self regulation there is need for a new regulatory framework to realise its full potential. The regulatory policy should concurrently enhance the key efficiencies of sharing platforms along with protecting consumers' rights. Government should aim to secure the opportunities offered by these sharing platforms to optimise their operations and better utilisation of public resources. Thoughtful regulatory intervention can serve to encourage the development of new ideas and new ventures in the sharing economy.

This paper examines the mechanisms that determine the “vanishing effect of finance” on economic growth found in recent studies. Based on both current (171 countries, 1960–2014) and historical (21 OECD countries, 1870–2009) data, the results show that financial development promotes growth in poorer countries by increasing education and investment, and by decreasing fertility. The relevance of these transmission channels declines when countries become richer. The growth effect of the financial sector in high-income countries primarily depends on new ideas and potentials for innovation projects. Consequently, the major decline in factor productivity growth since the early 2000s has contributed to the reduction in the financial sector’s average effect on growth.

Nowadays, information technology and the Internet are becoming a driver for a shared consumption economy (sharing economy). The paper aims to analyse the current level of use and prospects for the development of models of the sharing economy in Russia. We identify the effects of sharing consumption for the circular economy and study factors that stimulate the use of peer-to-peer models. One of the study’s tasks was to investigate the involvement of the young generation in the sharing economy, as the most promising part of the population. The study is based on the analysis of open Internet sources on the operation of sharing platforms in Russia and a survey among students at two Russian universities (RUDN University in Moscow and Kuban State University in Krasnodar) to identify the awareness of young people regarding sharing platforms. Analysis of the current state of sharing in Russia showed that the use of most types of sharing is at an initial stage. At the same time, the prospects for economic growth and population development are quite high. The article identifies several effects of digital platforms for sustainable development, the main of which are informed consumption and production. For the further growth of users of the sharing economy, the authors highlight the level of penetration of the Internet and the need for high-quality services on digital platforms. Educational organisations can also become a platform for the development of models of the sharing economy by involving students in sharing processes, as demonstrated by the survey.
