This article describes how foreign direct investments (FDI) is one of the most important forces that influences the global economy. Along the last two and a half decades, the motivations and the field of interest of multinational enterprises (MNEs) mutated to new forms under the influence of globalization and the international financial crisis. Those two events had a dramatic impact on the evolution of inward and outward flow of FDI. The main scope of this article is to analyze the advance of the EU28 member states through the stages of the Investment Development Path (IDP) in the period from 1990 to 2014 and to explore the viability of the original model in nowadays global economy realities. The results show that FDI is useful to gauge the economics of lesser developed countries.

A general consensus has been developed to proactively address climate change and promote green and low-carbon development in the international community. China, as a responsible major developing country, takes green and low-carbon development not only as its due international obligation to tackle global climate change, but also a priority in the implementation of the “Five Key Concepts for Development” ( http://keywords.china.org.cn/2016-03/01/content_37907679.htm ) and the realization of the “Two Centenary Goals” ( http://www.china.org.cn/china/china_key_words/2014-11/18/content_34158771.htm ). In this paper, the author reviews the major progress in tackling climate change worldwide in recent years, explores the nature of climate change based on the experiences of developed countries and China’s choice of development path, and analyzes China’s achievements and future development potential in green and low-carbon development.

Social work professional are an indispensable force for building a harmonious society and strengthening and innovating so- cial governance. In order to promote the development of social work professional, some policies about social work professional have been issued in China. This article attempts to explore the effect and influencing factors of social work professional policy. Finding as followings: social workers' education degree, professional titles and the number of female social workers shows a growing trend. There is still a gap in the total number of social workers and professional compared with developed countries. The proportion of social work- ers below 46yrs. in national social workers has dropped year by year. The rationality of the regional structure of social work profession- al needs to be improved. The main causes are: There are lower professional awareness and social recognition to social worker in the so- ciety. The social worker professional' salary system is not perfect, and the organization management capabilities need to be improved. The suggestions are: Expand the communication platform of social work professional' team construction by informatization. Strengthen publicity and enhance social awareness of social work professional. Implement salary incentive measures and strengthen system guar- antees.

Cross Country

We present cross-country evidence suggesting that agricultural credits have a positive impact on agricultural productivity. In particular, we find that doubling agricultural credits generates around 4–5% increase in agricultural productivity. We use two different agricultural production measures: (i) the agricultural component of GDP and (ii) agricultural labor productivity. Employing a combination of panel-data and instrumental-variable methods, we show that agricultural credits operate mostly on the agricultural component of GDP in developing countries and agricultural labor productivity in developed countries. This suggests that the nature of the relationship between agricultural finance and agricultural output changes along the development path. We conjecture that the development of the agricultural finance system generates entry into the agricultural labor market, which pushes up the agricultural component of GDP and keeps down agricultural labor productivity in developing countries; while, in developed countries, it leads to labor-augmenting increase in agricultural production. We argue that replacement of the informal credit channel with formal and advanced agricultural credit markets along the development path is the main force driving the labor market response.

Using Data

The investment development path theory delineates countries in stages I, II, III, IV, and V according to the level of development as developing, transition, and developed countries. The World Bank’s classification of countries by income, however, identifies countries as lower-income, lower-middle-income, upper-middle-income, and high income. In this paper, we test the investment development path theory for countries based on the level of income using data from 1980 to 2019. Africa offers unique data as it is the only continent made up of entirely developing countries together with countries that fit into all four classifications based on income. Income level classifications appear to enhance the position of countries within the investment development path ahead of that based on the United Nations classification. The use of income classification should complement that of the United Nations in the empirical testing of the investment development path theory for a more current investment development path status.

Innovation And Entrepreneurship

In the pursuit of “Mass Entrepreneurship and Innovation”, many colleges have opened a new course called Innovation and Entrepreneurship. However, the existing studies on innovation and entrepreneurship (IE) education mainly focus on education reform, failing to tackle the cultivation of IE spirit among college students. To make up for the gap, this paper firstly introduces the theory of educational psychology and the theory of planned behavior (TPB), and summarizes the status quo of the IE education in developed countries (e.g. the US, the UK and Japan) and developing countries (e.g. China). Next, the influencing factors of the entrepreneurial intention of college students were modelled based on the TPB, and a questionnaire survey on the correlation between the influencing factors and the entrepreneurial intention was conducted among college students in Baoji University of Arts and Sciences. The survey results were imported to our model, and subjected to computations on Amos 26.0, maximum likelihood estimation and standardized analysis. The results show that the entrepreneurial intention has a significant positive correlation with the attitude toward the IE and the perceived behavioral control, and an insignificant positive correlation with the subjective norms; the entrepreneurial intention of college students is directly affected by social impacts, in addition to school education; the IE education should pay attention to the practical experience of college students. The research results provide a good reference to the cultivation of IE spirit among college students.

ObjectiveTo characterise the contributing factors that affect medical students’ subspecialty choice and to estimate the extent of influence of individual factors on the students’ decision-making process.DesignSystematic review and meta-analysis.MethodsA systematic search of the Cochrane Library, ERIC, Web of Science, CNKI and PubMed databases was conducted for studies published between January 1977 and June 2018. Information concerning study characteristics, influential factors and the extent of their influence (EOI) was extracted independently by two trained investigators. EOI is the percentage level that describes how much each of the factors influenced students’ choice of subspecialty. The recruited medical students include students in medical school, internship, residency training and fellowship, who are about to or have just made a specialty choice. The estimates were pooled using a random-effects meta-analysis model due to the between-study heterogeneity.ResultsData were extracted from 75 studies (882 209 individuals). Overall, the factors influencing medical students’ choice of subspecialty training mainly included academic interests (75.29%), competencies (55.15%), controllable lifestyles or flexible work schedules (53.00%), patient service orientation (50.04%), medical teachers or mentors (46.93%), career opportunities (44.00%), workload or working hours (37.99%), income (34.70%), length of training (32.30%), prestige (31.17%), advice from others (28.24%) and student debt (15.33%), with significant between-study heterogeneity (p<0.0001). Subgroup analyses revealed that the EOI of academic interests was higher in developed countries than that in developing countries (79.66% [95% CI 70.73% to 86.39%] vs 60.41% [95% CI 43.44% to 75.19%]; Q=3.51, p=0.02). The EOI value of prestige was lower in developed countries than that in developing countries (23.96% [95% CI 19.20% to 29.47%] vs 47.65% [95% CI 34.41% to 61.24%]; Q=4.71, p=0.01).ConclusionsThis systematic review and meta-analysis provided a quantitative evaluation of the top 12 influencing factors associated with medical students’ choice of subspecialty. Our findings provide the basis for the development of specific, effective strategies to optimise the distribution of physicians among different departments by modifying these influencing factors.
