We consider a two-period duopoly characterized by a one-way spillover structure in process R&D and a very broad specification of product market competition. We show that a priori identical firms always engage in different levels of R&D, at equilibrium, thus giving rise to an innovator/imitator configuration and ending up with different sizes. We also provide a general analysis of the social benefits of, and firms' incentive for, forming research joint ventures. Another contribution is methodological, illustrating how submodularity (R&D decisions are strategic substitutes) can be exploited to provide a general analysis of a R&D game.

In recent years it has been pointed out that regional unemployment disparities are much more entrenched across member states of the European Union (E.U.) than they are in the U.S. A ‘conventional wisdom' has emerged to the effect that this difference is due in part to the greater degree of wage rigidity in E.U. regions. In this paper we explore this issue by estimating short run and long run real wage (in)flexibility for the regions in five core E.U. countries (Germany, France, Italy, the United Kingdom, and the Netherlands) and for the U.S. states for the period 1976–1994. We find that real wage (in)flexibility varies across regions both in the E.U. and the U.S., but that, on average, regional wages are no less flexible in E.U. core regions than in U.S. states. The paper also examines some of the possible correlates ofregional variations in wage (in)flexibility.

The statistical discrepancy is often used to gauge the reliability of national accounts data. Particularly since the mid-1980's the statistical discrepancy in Australia has grown significantly in size and variance. In the paper we demonstrate that the overwhelming contribution to the size of the statistical discrepancy is mismeasurement of private investment expenditure. We demonstrate that this mismeasurement not only adds to the volatility of investment but may have a significant impact on the volatility of the business cycle in general.

This paper reports on the enteqbrise resource planning (ERP) systems experiences of Australian companies. It examines the degree of information system integration and associated benefits that respondent companies believe they have achieved, and the impact of ERP systems on the adoption of new accounting practices. The results indicate that while ERP users report high levels of information integration for many functional areas, the pattern is similar to that of non‐ users. Also, ERP systems seem to perform better in transaction processing and ad hoc decision‐ support than in sophisticated decision‐support and reporting. Finally, ERP systems were found to have little influence on the use of new accounting practices.

Prospective earnings information in Australian firms' annual reports has been claimed to be of sufficient importance to warrant its statutory requirement, or at least its “active encouragement”. With the introduction of AASB 1039 Concise Financial Reports, management discussion and analysis is required in some circumstances, although there is no explicit requirement to provide prospective earnings disclosures. A survey of a sample of ASX‐listed firms shows that about 25% include some form of earnings forecast, although most are qualitative, while even a coarse measure of their accuracy suggests they are relatively unreliable. These results give rise to some concern that encouraging the provision of prospective earnings data may not necessarily assist investors.

Australia provides a very fertile ground in which to carry out field research into ethnic enterprises. Changing global flows of capital, goods and people have been reflected in changes to the size and ethnic composition of Australias immigrant population. As a result of immigration, first generation immigrants comprise a greater proportion of Australias population than do immigrants in any other western country, with the exception of Israel1. Yet Australias immigrant population is far more diverse than Israel, with Australias immigrant population comprising more than 140 nationalities from all corners of the globe. There is also an important spatial dimension of Australian immigrant settlement. Australia is one of the most urbanised nations in the world2 and in Australias major urban centres like Sydney, Melbourne, Perth and Adelaide first and second-generation immigrants comprise more than half of the population.3 Many of these immigrants have moved into small business, although different birthplace groups have different experiences in this regard. Some birthplace groups of NESB immigrants such as the Koreans, Italians and Greeks - exhibit a rate of small business formation that significantly exceeds that of the Australian-born. Other NESB immigrant groups such as those born in Vietnam, India, Malaysia and Sri Lanka exhibit a lower rate of small business formation than the Australian-born. ESB immigrants from the UK, New Zealand, Canada and the USA have a similar entrepreneurial profile to the Australian-born

© 2000 Taylor and Francis Group, LLC. The state of Andhra Pradesh has, for the past decade and a half, been performing relatively poorly on several major economic indicators. Recently re-elected, its government is committed to the development of the tourism sector to generate economic growth and employment in the state. This paper first provides estimates of the economic contribution of tourism to Andhra Pradesh. It then articulates a vision for the state to the year 2020, identifying the role expected to be played by tourism in economic development. Finally, it discusses several strategies for enhancing the economic benefits of tourism to Andhra Pradesh into the new millenium.

This paper presents findings and conclusions from an examination of the price competitiveness of 19 tourism destinations. Using Australia as a base country, the paper compares the prices of a bundle of tourist goods and services in a range of competing destinations, through the development of indices of international price competitiveness. Two major categories of prices are distinguished - those relating to travel to and from a destination (travel cost) and those relating to prices within the tourism destination (ground cost).

On what is taken to be the 'Standard View', increased tourism expenditure from inbound markets has direct, indirect and induced effects on a host destination, leading to increased production, income and employment. Strong links between tourism and other sectors of business reduce import leakages from tourism expenditure thereby enhancing the multiplier effects of the injected expenditure on domestic output, value added and employment. The usual technique for analysing these effects is input-output analysis. This paper argues that economy-wide effects must be taken into account in determining the impacts of increased tourism expenditure on a destination, and that the 'Standard View' is superficial and very often misleading. An expanding tourism industry tends to 'crowd out' other sectors of economic activity, reducing the demand for traditional exports and import competing industries. The extent of these 'crowding out' effects depends, in turn, on the workings of labour markets, changes in prices and the real exchange rate, and the macroeconomic policy context. It is argued that these mechanisms can only properly be taken into account using Computable General Equilibrium (CGE) models rather than input-output modelling. The paper then looks at applications of CGE modelling to tourism growth in both nations and regions, classifying the various studies according to assumptions made about labour markets and government policies. The discussion has relevance for estimating the economic contribution of tourism in all destinations. The paper concludes with some observations regarding the use of CGE modelling in tourism contexts internationally and issues for further research.

When an advertising agency attempts to attract a new client it must rely on perceptions of what they feel clients regard as important agency selection criteria. This paper analyses a survey of 102 advertising agency account directors in New Zealand that asked them to rate the importance of a number of agency selection variables. This resulted in eight factors that they perceived to be important for companies when selecting a new advertising agency. © 2000 by The Haworth Press, Inc. All rights reserved.

The idea of knowledge work has been around for some time. Mintzberg spoke about “knowledge intensive firms” outlining differences between knowledge intensive organizations and professional bureaucracies. A professional bureaucracy, for instance, typically relies on standardized knowledge, skills and routines, relying on typical professional features: codification, strong and clearly defined professional associations and codes of ethics. In the past professional identities have been shaped by (at least) symbolic association with such features. With sweeping changes to professional life and organization, many “knowledge workers” no longer belong to any of the traditional disciplinary professions. Cross‐disciplinary approaches are often now in favour and the symbolism that might have once reinforced professional identity has all‐but been replaced by the new competencies required in the high‐tech era: extensive communication, problem‐solving and coordination skills. The labour market is not stable and, as Mintzberg aptly put it, “knowledge intensity” has become a premium product.

Objective: To establish the short-term effects of lumbar posteroanterior mobilization in patients with low-back pain, compared with a control intervention. Design: Self-controlled cross-over design. Main Outcome Measures: The force-displacement characteristics of the spine in response to the application of a posteroanterior force, lumbar flexion, and extension range of movement; pain during flexion, extension, and on worst movement; pain on posteroanterior loading; and overall pain relief. Patients: Twenty-six patients with nonspecific low-back pain who experienced pain on flexion or extension and whose pain settled quickly after provocation, from a physiotherapy clinic and university campus. Methods: Patients received posteroanterior mobilization and a control intervention in an order that was randomly allocated. The magnitude of force in treatment dose was selected by the treating physiotherapist. An observer who was blinded to the order of interventions performed all measurements. Outcome measures were recorded before and after each intervention, and change scores were calculated to quantify the effect of the intervention. Results: No significant differences were found between the mobilization and control interventions in relation to posteroanterior response or range of movement. The score for pain on worst movement showed significantly greater improvement for the mobilization than for the control procedure. Conclusions: Lumbar posteroanterior mobilization was not observed to produce any objectively measurable change in the mechanical behavior of the lumbar spine of patients with low-back pain. Improvement in some pain variables was observed in comparison with a control procedure, but this may be due to a placebo effect.

Previous research in paradox and organizations leads one to both acknowledge the high interest of paradoxical practices within organizations and the limits of the academic approach of such practices. The simple ex-post description of paradoxical practices is not enough; some concrete directions about the implementation of such practices must be proposed. Based on a typology of paradoxical practices, this article identifies the underlying change logics and identifies some one of the concrete mechanism that can contribute to paradoxical management of organizations.

AbstractThis article documents a lack of share price response to dividend initiation announcements by firms that recently completed a reverse‐LBO. We identify a group of firms that had recently completed an IPO and report that they experience a positive reaction to dividend initiation announcements as expected based on the prior dividend initiation literature. We rule out a size‐based explanation for the abnormal response in reverse‐LBOs and offer some potential explanations for our empirical findings.

This article develops an empirically grounded definition of social capital. Drawing on the work of Coleman and Putnam and others, the article discusses social capital in terms of participation in networks, reciprocity, trust, social norms, the commons, and social agency. Potential items to measure these elements were developed in an empirical study. A questionnaire containing 68 potential items was administered to approximately 1,200 adults in five Australian communities: two rural communities, two outer metropolitan areas, and one inner-city area of Sydney. The responses were subjected to extensive statistical analysis involving a hierarchical factor analysis, which identified a single general underlying factor and eight orthogonal specific factors, accounting for 49% of the variance. Three of the specific factors identified were community participation, agency, and trust. The five communities differed significantly in terms of the general and specific factors.

This article reviews the practice of interview-based research through the metaphor of researcher as ghostwriter. What is suggested is that research can be examined as a form of textual practice in which researchers create images of others and also enter those images. In such a practice, research can be understood as a dialogic process where researchers are never neutral in their attempts to write about the lives of other people. This then leads to a need for researchers to account for their textual choices and their role in producing accounts of the experience of others. The article concludes that the ghostwriter metaphor is a way of understanding research that enables researchers to acknowledge their role in the production of textual representations of their research participants.

This study reports on the results of selected interviews and a survey of 280 New Zealand professional accounting firms. The purpose is to explore the characteristics that distinguish these firms in terms of their use of and perceptions towards outside expertise. The findings indicate distinctive practices by small (one owner), medium (up to four partners) and large firms. Vertical integration distinguishes the practices of larger firms; medium-sized firms participate and, to some extent, provide consulting services to other professionals; the small firm respondents indicate more resistance to the concept and they participate less in its practice. Given the results of the study, it is illustrated how a firm's formal networking practices contribute to understanding of the small business.

The market for for foreign exchange is the most heavily traded financial market. Theoretically exchange exchange rate movements are determined by economic fundamentals, such as inflation and interest rates, which influence the supply and demand for currencies. However, empirical models of exchange rate determination based on these fundamentals have not been very successful in predicting exchange rate movements, especially over the short run. Furthermore, market practitioners argue that they have successfully developed profitable trading strategies, which do not rely on an analysis of economic fundamentals. A reason for the poor performance of econometric models and trading strategies based on fundamental analysis could be the attitudes and behaviour of practitioners trading in the foreign exchange market. In order to obtain information about trading behaviour in the Australian foreign exchange market dealers authorised to trade in this market were approached in a survey for their views on market behaviour and trading strategies. This paper provides a detailed analysis of the responses to the survey questions.
