上海文化设施布局规划研究

利用效率问题是近年来上海文化设施发展的主要问题之一,如何有效地利用文化设施,提高文化设施的利用效率不仅仅要依赖于功能的策划,从空间布局而言,如何通过文化的效应吸聚人气,并有效结合周边功能,综合提高文化设施及周边地区的空间利用效率是十分重要的课题。通过对上海文化设施现状利用效率以及现状空间分布要素的分析,并借鉴国外相关案例,解析了上海文化设施利用效率问题背后的空间布局特征,并提出了总体的空间布局建议。     

杭州公共设施调研与分析——基于日常生活服务需求的视角

面对新形势下基本公共服务设施配置的新要求,杭州市开展了公共服务设施基本配套规定的评估与修订。有别于传统的"自上而下"制定各类设施配套标准的思路,此次评估与修订工作采用基于日常生活服务需求视角的"自下而上"的创新型思路,问卷与访谈相结合并将调研设施从公益性设施拓展到商业性设施,了解居民使用设施的频率、步行容忍时间等特征及对设施集中设置的意愿,以此为依据,对杭州市公共设施基本配套规定中设施类型的确定、设施功能的复合设置、服务半径的选取等方面提出建议。     

Power to the people or regulatory ratcheting? Explaining the success (or failure) of attempts to site commercial US nuclear power plants: 1954–1996

Between 1954 and 1996, more than 200 nuclear power projects were publicly announced in the USA. Barely half of these projects were completed and generated power commercially. Existing research has highlighted a number of potential explanations for the varying siting outcomes of these projects, including contentious political protests, socioeconomic and political conditions within potential host communities, regulatory changes (‘ratcheting’), and cost overruns. However, questions remain about which of these factors, if any, had an impact on these outcomes. This article uses a new data set of 228 host communities where siting was attempted to illuminate the factors that led projects towards either completion or cancelation. Controlling for factors highlighted by past studies, we find that regulatory, site‐ and reactor‐specific factors predict the outcomes of attempts to site nuclear reactors over this time period. These findings have important implications in the post‐Fukushima ‘nuclear renaissance’ era when many still hope to revitalize the nuclear industry in the USA.

中国（上海）自由贸易试验区配套服务设施优化探讨--基于对自由贸易试验区现状与需求特征的分析

上海自贸试验区由外高桥保税区、浦东机场保税区和洋山保税港区3大区域组成，作为自贸试验区的主体功能，金融、贸易、会展等商务设施快速发展，建树显著。但与其主体功能相辅的配套服务设施，则由于三区不同的阶段和特征都各不相同，在一定程度上影响着自贸试验区的软实力提升。探讨如何结合自贸试验区的特殊性，从特征分析和需求调查出发，寻求适合于当前需求及发展形势的配套服务优化之路。

Polluting facilities and environmental justice – a study

The environmental justice movement attempts to examine the disproportionate exposure of environmental pollution on minority and low‐income people, understand the patterns of such disproportionate exposures and develop strategies to reduce and eliminate such exposures. Unlike several environmental justice studies that include all fifty states of the United States, this study examines the locations of manufacturing facilities that pollute in states with predominantly high African‐American populations. Our analysis indicates that polluting facilities tend to choose counties with higher proportion of nonwhite populations. Per capita incomes of people living within 5‐miles of the facilities are lower than per capita incomes of people living in the host counties Contrary to the conventional wisdom, population density per square mile both within 1 mile and 5 miles of the facility are much higher than the state population densities.     

Payment and audit mechanisms for non private‐funded PPP‐based infrastructure maintenance projects

The introduction of a non private‐funded public–private partnerships (PPP) approach to the maintenance and operation of infrastructure facilities necessitates an equitable performance standard, a sensible penalty mechanism and a credible auditing system. Yet, with limited research on this type of scheme, it is not clear whether the payment and audit mechanisms can adequately gauge the performance of private partners and truly reflect the quality of service provided in their payment. The question is whether the reliability of the payment reduction and auditing mechanisms pertinent to the non‐private funded PPP infrastructure maintenance can be systematically verified. With reference to a case study in Hong Kong, field data have been collected and tested according to the sensitivity analysis and level of confidence. The results indicate that the level of payment reduction due to poor performance is fair and the audit frequency is adequate to reflect the overall performance of the service provider. The approaches adopted in this research should provide an objective basis for public and private partners to formulate a mutually acceptable and effective mechanism for non private‐funded PPP infrastructure maintenance contracts.
