Crisis Responses

Chapter 3, by Agnar Freyr Helgason, offers a review of political economy theories of crises responses. He starts by explaining the broad perspectives of the Keynesian and Austrian schools and then probes more deeply into recent work on government policy responses to economic crises, with a focus on the economic welfare of populations or households. The role of the welfare state and its importance during periods of crisis is considered, as well as the role of government policy more broadly, either that directed at the economy generally or at specific population groups. Key policy debates are covered, for example austerity versus stimulus, as well as mixed approaches.

Role Of The Government

In 2017, Koreans controlled 1,656 vessels with an aggregate tonnage of 80,976,874 deadweight (dwt), placing Korea as the world’s seventh largest shipowning country. Given that Korean-owned tonnage stood at just 1.3m dwt in 1970, this represented a remarkable rate of growth over less than half a century. This article focuses on the years from 1967 to 1999 and aims to prove that government policy was one of the key causal factors in the rapid increase in Korean shipping. The paper is organised into four main parts. In the first section, the role of the government in the development of the economy is assessed, while Section 2 focuses on state policies designed to promote the shipping industry in Korea. Section 3 highlights the rise of Korean shipping from 1967 to 1999, and the final part considers the wider implications of the role of government policy in the development of the shipping industry.

Railway Freight Transport

High efficient information sharing is the key factor to realize the integrated collaborative operation in through transport of railway freight. This paper presents a framework of information sharing among the railway enterprises and their customer enterprises. The information sharing demand was categorized into information sharing for demand-supply matching and the integrated collaborative operation. The information sharing content was defined according to the information sharing demand. Base on the current information technologies utilized in China’s railway freight transport, the framework of information sharing was constructed from four aspects: the hierarchy of information sharing, the mode architecture of information sharing, the methods of information collection and the supporting conditions of implementation.
