In the article the existing approaches to the definition of the competitiveness concept are analyzed. The author�s conception of competitiveness with regard to characteristics of sea ports is offered. Provided graphical representation concerning the definition of enterprises competitiveness of the port sector. In addition to the objective economic categories, such as price, salary, income and profits, the main elements of the organizational and economic management mechanism, in the current conditions, should also be added the level of competitiveness. It should be noted that the principles of the organizational and economic management mechanism formation had better be based on the systematic and situational approach. And the competitive advantages of the ports, formed on the basis of their production profile and the system of interconnected signs of competitiveness, must determine the need to select and implement a market strategy aimed at achieving these competitive advantages. In the presence of a competitive market and a developed competitive environment, the ability of significant number of enterprises in the ports sphere to survive will be determined by their competitiveness, which is realized in the process of enterprises in the market during the competition. The authors concluded that the main outcome of the competitive functioning arrangements of modern port should be the following: ensuring stable long-term market position, practically permanent profit growth and ensure capitalization. As a main result can be selected as one of the criteria, and all together, depending on the state of the port and the stage of its life cycle.

General contracting has gradually become the mainstream mode of project production organizations and the breakthrough point for the transformation of construction industry in China with the deepening of project management and project implementation reform. A general contractor needs to have a clear understanding of the structure and internal mechanism of its capability to achieve sustainable development. This study aimed to explore the critical influencing factors of general contractor capability and interrelationships between these factors in the context of transformation of Chinese construction industry. Fourteen critical factors influencing the general contractor’s capability were identified through literature review and questionnaire survey. Then, the interrelationships between factors were revealed through interpretive structural modeling (ISM). The factors were divided into four groups using the Matrice d’Impacts croises-multipication applique a classement (MICMAC) in accordance with driving power and dependence power. The results indicate that particular attention should be paid to enterprise culture at present. A strategy to improve the capability of general contractor was proposed. The results contribute to the construction of the theoretical system of general contractor capability. These research findings can thus act as a practical reference for future research attempting to provide technological and managerial solutions for promoting the development of general contracting.

Nowadays, China dominates logistics volumes, and its container logistics is associated with the largest sea ports, such as Shanghai, Shenzhen, and Ningbo. However, China’s coastal line is long and contains numerous million-container-handling sea ports. Current leading sea ports are located mostly in the south or at the middle point of the coastal line. Volumes are rather concentrated in these few areas. Despite the fact that China’s vast population is well-spread throughout the coastal line, major cities are also located in the hinterlands. Apart from some regions (e.g., the Pearl and the Yangtze River Delta) where there are many cities that are very close to each other, distances between cities are rather long in general. Therefore, this research examines the CO2 emission reduction potential of using a larger number of sea ports (such as distribution hubs), as well as the interaction of these with analytically chosen dry ports. Results of the hypothetical country level container transportation model, using linear integer programming concerning 51 cities (largest hinterland and container sea port cities), showed that better and more equal use of sea ports serving the major cities will result in considerable emission reductions. This is the case, even if hinterland transport is completely based on road transports. However, in a situation where the dry port structure with railways is further applied, the results showed that it should be concentrated on a few hinterland points first, but also assure that most remote, million-people city locations get priority for the railway.

Abstract In challenging the assumption of autistic social uninterest, Jaswal & Akhtar have opened the door to scrutinizing similar unexamined assumptions embedded in other literatures, such as those on children's typically developing behaviors regarding others’ minds and morals. Extending skeptical analysis to other areas may reveal new approaches for evaluating competing claims regarding social interest in autistic individuals.
