Governmental System and economic volatility in democracies
Social Science Research Network, 2018Co-Authors: Chen Cheng, Weifeng ZhongAbstract:Economic volatility varies substantially across democracies. We study how the difference between federal and unitary Systems of government can contribute to these variations. We show empirically that a higher degree of federalism is associated with less volatility in both economic growth and fiscal policy. Motivated by these stylized facts, we develop a macroeconomic model of policy-making at the central and district levels. Policy at the central level is uncertain due to uncertainty about the identity of the winning coalition in a legislature of district representatives, while policy at the district level is more stable due to homogeneity within districts. We show that, in equilibrium, the decentralization of policy-making powers can mitigate overall policy uncertainty. This implies less volatility in fiscal policy and, hence, less volatility in economic growth, compared to those in a more unitary System.

Governmental System and economic volatility under democracy
2015Co-Authors: Chen Cheng, Weifeng ZhongAbstract:Economic volatility varies substantially across democracies. We study how the dierence between a federal and a unitary System of government can contribute to such variation. We show empirically that federal Systems are associated with less volatility in both economic growth and …scal policy. Motivated by these stylized facts, we develop a macroeconomic model with policy-making at the central and district level. Policy at the central level is uncertain due to uncertainty about the identity of the winning coalition in a legislature containing district representatives. On the other hand, policy at the district level is stable due to homogeneity within districts. We show that, in equilibrium, the decentralization of …scal power mitigate overall policy uncertainty. This, in turn, implies less volatility in both economic growth and …scal policy compared to a unitary System.

a social shaping perspective on an e Governmental System ic failure
Lecture Notes in Computer Science, 2004Co-Authors: Elisabeth Davenport, Keith S HortonAbstract:The paper that follows is concerned with the communities of interest (or actor networks) and communities of practice that articulate the delivery of e-government services, and with the discourse formations that shape the delivery of e-government services in the UK. The approach adopted within this paper is based on historical reconstruction and discourse analysis. This suggests that the delivery of an integrated and accountable e-government apparatus is a non-trivial objective for System developers, and that the overall complexity of such a development has been, and is grossly underestimated.

A PaaS Based E-government Security Framework and Its Application
2016Co-Authors: Zehua ZhengAbstract:With the development of cloud computing technology,more and more Governmental agencies are aware of the importance to take advantage of cloud computing to improve the efficiency and reduce costs.In this paper the design and implementation of a PaaS based E-government System is presented,with emphasis on the security design and rapid development features of the framework.Due to its characteristics of higher requirement for security,varies kinds of security measures are applied in this System,from virtualization separation mechanism,access and data management,network perimeter security defense System,backup and recovery mechanism,to electronic seal and signature service,etc.The strong demand for rapid development that helps developers with insufficient experience to establish their electronic platform easily is also fulfilled.In addition,the platform provides same user experience all along which meets the requirement of Governmental System well.PaaS is adopted in this System.Comparing to IaaS,it can reduce the ...With the development of cloud computing technology,more and more Governmental agencies are aware of the importance to take advantage of cloud computing to improve the efficiency and reduce costs.In this paper the design and implementation of a PaaS based E-government System is presented,with emphasis on the security design and rapid development features of the framework.Due to its characteristics of higher requirement for security,varies kinds of security measures are applied in this System,from virtualizaThe Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers、IEEE Beijing Section
