题目:Transaction Mechanism and Industrial Land Allocation Efficiency: Evidence from the 2007 Auction Reform in China
摘要:Land allocation has played an essential role in China’s industrial development. In the past, most industrial land was transacted through negotiations that usually lacked transparency and competition. Since 2007, the central government has required industrial land to be sold via public auction. This paper studies how the reform of the land transaction mechanism has affected land allocation efficiency by reshaping local industrial structures. It analyzes three comprehensive data sets, which contain information on new industrial establishments, land transactions, and local industrial outcomes. The analysis shows that the reform significantly increases the entry of firms in industries that better match a given locality’s specialization. This effect is more pronounced in areas that implemented the reform more stringently. These results suggest that the reform facilitates new industrial entrants to cluster spatially to obtain the benefits associated with agglomeration economies and leads to a more efficient geographic distribution of industries. The paper also finds evidence that sheds light on the underlying channel: in sharp contrast to negotiated sales, public auction brings in competition so that land sale prices have started to reflect market demand and this facilitates matching land to the users who can make the best use of it.

题目:The Sunshine Effects on Solar Loan Repayments
摘要:Solar loans are increasingly used to promote residential solar photovoltaic expansion. However, concerns about their default rate are increasing. This paper studies the psychological effects of sunshine on borrowers’ repayment behaviors. Using administrative datasets from China, we first show borrowers are 20.8% less likely to be delinquent if the sunshine duration is one standard deviation longer in the week of the repayment deadline. Furthermore, borrowers who signed up for solar panels on extremely sunny days have a persistently higher probability of delinquency. We rule out rational explanations and show the result is most consistent with behavioral bias, such as projection bias or salience. Overall, our results provide novel insights into the mechanisms of sunshine effects in renewable energy financing.

文章题目:流动的家庭:夫妻分离和母职惩罚
报告摘要:基于中国流动人口数据,本文从空间视角解释母职惩罚。首先,基准结果显示子女随迁显著降低母亲的就业概率,减少其工作时间,并增加其通勤时长。利用户籍制度构建断点回归设计克服内生性问题后,结论依然成立。然后,机制分析显示子女随迁会影响家庭的住房选择,使母亲在城市内进行工作地-居住地-学校的三重空间选择,导致家庭内的性别收入差距显著增加。具体而言,孩子能够解释家庭内性别收入差距的30.34%。最后,城市间的夫妻异地分居会显著加剧母职惩罚。
