This paper examined green building incentive policies in both China and the overseas from research and implementation. Based on analyzing overseas green building incentive policies, we can conclude that incentive policy for green building is advanced. Domestic researchers have conducted research from the perspectives of government function, external economy, comparison with foreign policies, supply and demand. This paper reviewed the implementation of green building incentive policies in China. We conclude that the policies and regulations in promoting green building development in China need to be developed. Finally, according to the development of green building in China, further research is needed on developing a system of incentive mechanism and evaluating the effect of incentive.

Indonesia is one of the country's largest Coconut producer and exporter in the world market. The management efforts of Indonesia coconut not optimal, coconut export is still largely in the form of primary products, a type of derivative products coconut produced Indonesia is still limited. But in general, this research aims to analyze the Export Competitiveness of coconut Indonesia in international markets, specifically aims to analyze the position and competitiveness of Indonesia coconut commodities in the international market. Methods of data analysis using Trade Specialization Index (TSI), the analysis Revealed Comparative Advantage (RCA), and the Constant Market Share analysis (CMS). The results showed that during the period of 2005-2016, the development of supply and demand are relatively unstable and likely to rise. TSI values during the period of 2005-2016 have the value positive that shows that Indonesia is a country exporting coconut and belongs into the categories of very mature in the international market, indicated by the average value of the TSI of 1.00. The value of the RCA during the period of 2005-2016 have a value above 1 indicating that Indonesia Coconut has a comparative advantage for the commodity. While the analysis results in CMS during the period of 2005-2016 based on the four effects shows that the competitiveness of coconut Indonesia influenced by standard growth effects and efficient distribution where the coconut export growth in Indonesia is affected by the growth of coconut import world.

Sustainability of the economy depends on the reduction of the environmental footprint of the supply and demand as economy relies on the production enabled by natural resources. The construction industry is one of the major industries influencing sustainable and social development. The construction industry and the built environment, however, have important environmental footprints. Therefore, the demand and supply sides in the construction industry must be transformed into more sustainable ones. Furthermore, the principles and emerging concepts of sustainable and innovative economy need to be adopted by the construction industry. Based on an in-depth literature review, this chapter focuses on the integration and impacts of the emerging concepts for the sustainable and innovative economy in the construction industry. This chapter is expected to be useful for academics, graduate and undergraduate students, researchers, policymakers, and construction industry professionals.

Regional supply-adjustment studies are either underway or completed for milk, feed grain-livestock, wheat, rice, cotton, and beef. Other related studies take subsectors as units of analysis for studying markets for such inputs as labor and fertilizer, or for studying regional comparative advantage.This paper reviews the specification of supply and demand for both kinds of studies and develops the concept of effective subsectoral demands and supplies from the standard Walrasian adjustment behavioral assumptions. These concepts are applied to both the input markets and the product markets. Two commonly used specifications of subsectoral functions: (1) the method of equal elasticity as the aggregate, and (2) the method of equal slope as the aggregate, are found to be incorrect specifications of subsectoral functions in perfectly competitive adjustment studies, except in very restrictive circumstances. The theoretically consistent specifications are developed and shown to be operationally useable for future studies.

PurposeCorn, which has the highest domestic production, planting area and consumption, is the top cereal in relation to demand and supply in China. However, the comparative advantage of China in corn has continuously deteriorated in recent years and based on the recent situation and possible supply and demand trends, it is widely accepted that a corn self-sufficiency rate of 95% is difficult to achieve. Under current import-restriction policies, corn may stand at the crossroads of reforms to solve its predicted insufficient supply. In this study, the authors analyse the necessity of relaxing trade restrictions on corn in China and explore the effects of trade restrictions by reducing tariffs and expanding tariff-rate quotas on corn and related industries and the welfare change caused by possible relaxations.Design/methodology/approachThe authors construct a computable general equilibrium (CGE) model and design nine scenarios for the analysis.FindingsThe results show that relaxations of import restrictions are probable methods to meet the aim of sufficient corn supply during shortages. They are simulated to reduce corn's domestic production and price, increase import and import prices and lead to a decline in self-sufficiency but benefit the production of corn-related industries of corn. The results also imply that expanding the quota is a better method for releasing trade restrictions in China.Originality/valueThe comparative advantage of China in corn deteriorated with an increase in prices. Based on the current situation and possible trends of supply and demand, the referenced goal of achieving 95% corn self-sufficiency appears difficult, implying that reliance on imports is probably imminent and vital. This study provides simulation results in future scenarios and offers policy implications for China's corn trade policies.

Economics is the science that studies the laws of supply and demand within a country's economy. For hundreds of years, economists have debated the issue of unemployment and its impact on a country's economy. The arguments have given rise to several schools of thought regarding how governments and policymakers should react when their workers cannot find jobs that pay decent wages. The arguments have also led to the formation of new countries and the reconstruction of others. This literature review used a systematic approach to review selected and representative studies, theoretical papers, and economic reports to answer the research question: Why are so many Americans unemployed? The authors based their methodology on Cooper's Taxonomy for Literature Review to provide a synthesis of the literature to uncover new perspectives and build a framework of the literature. The findings infer investments in job training programs to close skills gaps are not a form of public welfare. Such expenditures would be an investment

Circular Business Models (CBMs) are a tool that allows private sector organizations to reconcile circularity (i.e., narrowing, slowing and closing resource flows) and commercial value creation. However, these two elements are not always aligned; they can be contradictory. This makes the relationship between circularity and commercial value creation, in the context of CBMs, a paradoxical tension. These types of tensions are particularly challenging since the elements that create the tension cannot be removed, instead, both elements must remain in place and the tension between them must be continuously managed. This article explores the main paradoxical tensions and management strategies in the context of CBMs through an integrative literature review as well as an empirical study. The integrative review helped identify three literature streams that provide key insights regarding paradoxical tensions of CBMs, namely corporate sustainability, servitization and circular economy. The empirical study suggested six paradoxical tensions inherent to CBMs: (1) using waste as a resource; (2) design of circular products; (3) improving aesthetics of used products; (4) matching supply and demand; (5) Balancing costs in circular activities; and (6) managing resistance from the value chain. The findings from the literature review as well as the empirical study are compared and discussed. Overall, this article sheds light on the paradoxical tension between circularity and commercial value creation that sits at the core of CBMs as well as the potential managerial strategies suitable for dealing with this tension.

The subject of the research was workforce, its availability and price, and its importance for agriculture development in Bosnia and Herzegovina (BiH). The aim was to determine whether the workforce remains to be a comparative advantage or has become a limitation on agricultural development in Bosnia and Herzegovina. The introduction to the selected subject of research was done on the basis of a literature review, followed by an authors’ own survey based on a randomly selected sample of farms. The results confirmed that it is increasingly difficult to find workers for seasonal works in agriculture in Bosnia and Herzegovina and that farms rely primarily on the workforce within families, relatives and friends. The price of labour in agriculture is rising, but it is still lower than in other sectors and abroad, which is the reason why workers are leaving agriculture. Bosnia and Herzegovina compared to three years ago, it is harder for Bosnia and Herzegovina farms to find additional workforce and they pay it more. The future agricultural policy in Bosnia and Herzegovina should seriously count on family farms and their modernization in terms of creating conditions for workforce reduction and substitution.

Determination  of  superior  regional  commodity  is  the  first  step  towards  the agriculture development which based on concept of efficiency to achieve comparative and competitive advantage in the face of  global trade.Step toward efficiency can be reached by developing commodity that has a comparative advantage in terms of both supply and demand  side.The  purpose  of  this  study  to  analyzed  the  commodity  which  has  the comparative  advantage  of  various  commodities  that  exist  in  the  Kaimana  district. Secondary data were collected on estate commodities production  data sourced from BPS as well as primary data through a survey of 60 farmer respondents. Data analyzed using LQ (Location Quotient), Domestic Resources Cost Ratio (DRCR) and Private Cost Ratio (PCR).  The  analysis showed  that  the  highest  LQ  value  for  coconut  contained  in  Teluk Etnasub  district,  in  the  sub  district  Buruway  cocoa  and  nutmeg  in  Kambrau  sub district.Coconut, cocoa and nutmeg have a comparative advantage in Kaimana district as shown by DRCR smaller than one. While there is a competitive advantage only in cocoa and nutmeg demonstrated with PCR values smaller than one.
