Purpose The purpose of this paper is to define the conceptualization and measurement of informatization according to a capability perspective reflected in three aspects: IT managerial capability, IT-enabled capability and IT infrastructure capability. Design/methodology/approach Manufacturing enterprises in China’s Northeast and Pearl River Delta regions in China were selected to empirically examine, using structural equation modeling, the association between a firm’s senior executive support informatization and radical innovation performance. Findings Results show a significant positive relationship between senior executive support and IT-enabled capability. However, there are no significant positive influences uncovered between senior executive support and IT managerial capability and IT infrastructure capability. The authors find significant positive effects of IT managerial capability, IT-enabled capability and IT infrastructure capability on radical innovation performance. Lastly, the joint effect of senior executive support and external institutional environment has no significant influence on informatization. Originality/value This study offers improved understanding for enterprises and academia about the effect of senior executive support informatization on radical innovation performance. It also suggests taking effective measures to highlight the management level and enterprises’ radical innovation performance.

Infrastructure digital transformation may create value for logistics enterprises; but its whole process is still full of uncertainties. Prior research focused on smart control in view of the infrastructure and ignored the driving role of digital governance in the process of digital transformation. Here, the authors investigate the relationship between digital adaptive governance and digital transformation, and actively explore the effect of digitalization on service quality improvement in logistics enterprises. The authors take servitization as the moderator to examine the interaction between digital transformation and service quality. Through 227 valid responds of senior executives and workers at the production line from 46 logistics enterprises in China, the authors use partial least squares and hierarchical regression analysis to test the hypotheses empirically. Results suggest that digital adaptive governance, infrastructure digital transformation and servitization have positive influence on service quality. Digital adaptive governance has positive influence on infrastructure digital transformation.

This research was conducted to analyze whether the export tax and productivity enhancement of primary agriculture commodity could raise the economic growth, agroindustry output, labor, and household income. The model used on this research was computable general equilibrium comparative static model. The data used were the 2008 Input-Output Table and System Accounting Matrix, and other relevant supporting sources. The result showed that the export tax had negative effect on economic growth, specially in long term. However, if the export tax was followed by productivity raising for the taxed sectors, it would have positive effect on economic growth. In sectoral, it was able to increase the agroindustry domestic output in long term, but would have negative effect in short term with or without the productivity raising. It also has effect on sectoral labor, where generally, in short term, the labor demand was decreasing. Meanwhile, in long term, there was an increasing for labor demand on some major economy sectors. It, in short term would decrease the real income on the whole household, specially the high income household. When that policy was followed by the productivity raising, it would be a positive effect on the income redistribution and household welfare. In long term, export tax caused income of the high household income increased, and decreased on the low household income with or without the productivity raising. Abstrak Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menganalisis apakah pajak ekspor dan peningkatan produktivitas komoditas pertanian utama dapat meningkatkan pertumbuhan ekonomi, output agroindustri, penyerapan tenaga kerja, dan pendapatan rumah tangga. Model yang digunakan dalam penelitian ini adalah model computable general equilibrium comparative static. Data yang digunakan adalah Tabel Input-Output 2008 dan Tabel Sistem Necara Sosial Ekonomi 2008, serta data pendukung lainnya. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa kebijakan pajak ekspor berdampak negatif terhadap pertumbuhan ekonomi, terutama dalam jangka panjang. Tetapi, apabila kebijakan ekspor tersebut disertai oleh peningkatan produktivitas pada sektor yang dikenai pajak, maka akan berdampak positif terhadap pertumbuhan ekonomi. Secara sektoral, kebijakan pajak ekspor mampu meningkatkan output domestik agroindustri dalam jangka panjang, tetapi berdampak negatif dalam jangka pendek dengan atau tanpa disertai peningkatan produktivitas. Kebijakan tersebut juga berpengaruh terhadap penyerapan tenaga kerja sektoral, di mana secara umum terjadi penurunan permintaan tenaga kerja dalam jangka pendek. Sementara itu, dalam jangka panjang terjadi peningkatan penyerapan tenaga kerja pada sebagian besar sektor ekonomi. Kebijakan pajak dalam jangka pendek akan menurunkan pendapatan riil pada seluruh kelompok rumah tangga, terutama kelompok rumah tangga yang berpenghasilan tinggi. Ketika kebijakan tersebut disertai oleh peningkatan produktivitas maka akan berdampak positif terhadap redistribusi pendapatan dan kesejahteraan rumah tangga. Dalam jangka panjang, kebijakan pa...
