	SOAS: SED: Issue 1 No 1: Are TVEs another East Asian “miracle” the World Bank can’t explain?
		Most consider that the residents of the township or village, which established the TVE, own the firm, but the township-village residents do not have the privileges of ownership: the right to use, transfer or appropriate the assets.
		TVEs, for this reason, are sometimes considered to be TVG-run enterprises, although, at times, TVGs act more as if the TVE belonged to them, rather than the township-village residents.
		The property rights in these TVEs are not clear because, in most cases, the entrepreneurs received initial authorisation from the TVG to use the land and/or assistance from the TVG to raise capital.

	UNIDO - Energy Conservation and GHG Emissions Reduction in Chinese TVEs - Phase II
		TVEs had become a major component of the Chinese economy, contributing significantly to GDP, employing large numbers of people and contributing to social development.
		However, TVEs in the brick, cement, coking and metal-casting sub-sectors were set up primarily to absorb rural labour, to provide essential low cost products, and to contribute to improving livelihoods in a localised area.
		TVE are also major contributors to local air and water pollution and health hazards for employees.

	May 28th, 2007: TVES inauguration \| The News is NowPublic.com
		It is on the very same air frequency allocated to RCTV in the past.
		During the inauguration ceremony of TVES, President Chavez deemed the new TV channel as "socialist television". The government states TVES will support efforts to democratize TV in Venezuela and promote freedom of expression.
		However, for The New York Times, TVES inauguration signals the emergence of a new media elite.

	The community-based rural social security system:
		Rural enterprises, which from the 1980s began to be called “township and village enterprises” (TVEs) began to develop in the 1950s, on the basis of surplus labour associated with limited land, on the one hand, and investment marshalled by the collective organization of farming on the other.
		TVEs provide huge amounts of funds for the community, investing in construction of facilities in the community, which has resulted in significant development of Sunan rural communities both in economic and socio-cultural terms.
		TVEs and rural community are closely related in Sunan, and the community has been changed into one with key characteristics of TVEs.

	Journal 13(2) - Article 2 (Created: 20 July 1998)
		The correlation coefficient between the number of TVE employees and the non-agricultural population, calculated according to the data for 69 cities and counties in Fujian Province, is only 0.3338 (P=.005), which can be attributed mostly to the overlapping distribution of TVE employees with the non-agricultural population in the towns.
		As was done for the TVE employees, the distribution of those temporary residents who had lived for one year or more in a county-level place other than where they had their household registration can be calculated by residential hierarchy (table 4).
		This is because the number of estimated TVE employees and their dependants amounted to 8.9 million in 1995 (see table 7), while the number of estimated short-term temporary residents was less than 2 million.

	China Essay Series: Ambiguous Capital
		The TVEs are hybrid institutions --- unusual alliances between TVE entrepreneurs and local government officials (acting in the capacity of "owners" of TVE enterprises).
		TVEs are increasingly important sources of income and employment (generating almost a third of Chinese gross domestic product and employing approximately 131 million workers).
		TVE managers have been found to violate rules on overtime, often forcing workers to perform unpaid labor.

		The presumption is that the rise of income in the rural areas reflects, to a large extent, the growth of the TVEs, but does not reflect the difference of the urban to rural laborer wage gap.
		TVEs will contribute to growth and exports to China, with rural development and the increase of employment rates and the potential for training skilled laborers for future potential industrial work.
		By enforcing a countrywide system of TVEs, the rural countryside will be developed in time for the next economic phase in China’s development, thus pushing the entire population forward, instead of expanding the schism between the urban coastal and rural inland populations.

	China Essay Series: Ambiguous Capital
		In the TVE, public officials have a greater incentive to take seriously their role as a contracting agent (playing the role of owners) in negotiating conditions with the top level managers of TVEs.
		One of the factors contributing to the success of the TVEs and providing encouragement to those supporting further privatization is that the TVEs have tended to engage in fairly aggressive self-policing of the sorts of corrupt business practices that have plagued most SOEs.
		TVEs have not been afraid to engage in price cutting or to employ relatively sophisticated marketing of their products.

	China: Promoting safety and health in township and village enterprises - Asian-Pacific Newsletter on Occupational ...
		Originally TVEs were conceived as enterprises to be run by townships or villages, both to promote economic growth and to absorb the surplus rural labour force and discourage excessive urban migration.
		TVE accident data must instead be based on the assumption that rural collectively owned enterprises, private enterprises and unlicensed mines are all TVEs, which may not always be true for the latter two categories.
		In this report the term "TVEs" is used in its broader concept, with the objective of addressing OSH issues in the newly emerging non-state sector, regardless of the administrative coverage of the ministries and bureaus concerned at the provincial and lower levels.

		TVEs in the Pearl River Delta and Guangdong Province developed slower than in 2002, with the proportion of added value in the national total dropped by 0.54 percentage points to 8.05 percent and the proportion of export in the national total dropping by two percentage points.
		But TVEs in the Yangtze River Delta, which embraces Shanghai, Jiangsu and Zhejiang, showed a stronger growth, with the proportion of their combined added value in the national rising by 1.07 percentage points to 26.19 percent and the proportion of export in the national total rising by 3.98 percentage points to reach 47.91 percent.
		TVEs in the Bohai-rim area, which include Beijing, Tianjin, Hebei, Shandong and Liaoning, where TVEs started late, picked up speed, with the proportion of their added value in the national total reaching 30.33 percent, 1.16 percentage points higher than in 2002.

		Nonetheless, incentives facing TVEs are more like those of private firms in that the residual profits accrue to a limited group:a traditionally stable local community and, in particular, its government and TVE managers.
		Studies show the enormous importance of TVE profits in local budgets and the close links between local economic performance and the status, income, and career prospects of local officials.
		Aspects of the TVE phenomenon are specific to China, but the experience holds important lessons for other transition economies: the importance of liberal entry, competition, hard budget constraints, and appropriate fiscal incentives for local governments.

		It views the governance structure of TVEs as effectively combining the comparative advantage of local government officials in external management and of dual firm managers in internal management to overcome imperfections in both market and government during the transitional period.
		To adapt to the changing environment, TVEs have continuously innovated firm contractual form from a government official dominant fixed-wage form to a partnership-style profit-sharing form, then to a privatization-oriented fixed-rent form.

	The Modality of the Pursuit of Private Sector Development
		The TVE is a concept relating to regional and non-farming industry, rather than to the ownership of property rights.
		The fact that the growth rate of TVEs continue to decline (Wei Guihua (Î¤¹ð»ª)£¬ 1999 [34]) and that most TVEs have been transformed into private enterprises or shareholder enterprises in the late 1990s has already demonstrated serious challenges to the survival of TVEs, and has cast doubt on their efficiency in the long term.
		Though TVEs may be more efficient than SOEs and as efficient as private enterprises in the short run, in the long term they may be in a disadvantage competitive position and in the end may be replaced by other types of private enterprises.

		The study was based on an industrial hygiene survey carried out for all industrial TVEs in these 30 counties, but was extended to small workshops owned by individuals or families working together in 8 townships in 4 of the counties.
		Coverage provided for TVEs was found to be extremely limited, ranging from 1.4 to 36 percent for the five categories of services examined.
		Given the continuing rapid development of TVEs and the growing gap between the level of occupational health services that can be provided and the level actually needed, the Ministry of Public Health decided to conduct a further field intervention study using an expert group in the Department of Health Inspection.

	Chinese Town and Village Enterprises: Share Profits vs. Residual Claimant Contracts - Shorenstein Reports - Institute ...
		Using a survey of 200 Chinese Town and Village Enterprises (TVEs) from 1985 to 1990, Professor Hsiao's research also showed that the trend of moving from share profit contract to quota profit contract for the Chinese TVEs in the late 1980's might be an ill advised program.
		Before 1978, managers of TVEs had contracts similar to those of managers in state-owned firms: managers were almost all state-appointed and selected from the ranks of officials with a good deal of experience in local and regional government.
		To the extent that state officials are themselves an important source of raw material, it would thus behoove TVEs to enter into contracts that give state officials a financial incentive to act as their economic patrons.

		And the TVEs underwent reform in 1993 alone overtook the total number of TVEs that had been reformed in previous years. One of the goals for the Jiangsu government was to “steadfastly insist on the public ownership as the main part” in its economy.
		The arrangements were to mortgage the valuable assets, such as land and factory buildings of those TVEs to their creditors to cover most part of the debts, the rest of which were then waived by the banks.
		The Hutang government declared that the goal of the property rights reform was to clarify property rights relationships, and the key to the success of fulfilling the goal was to ensure that the process of property transferring embody the principles of publicity, justice, and fairness (gongkai, gongping, gongzheng).

	SSRN-Lessons from the Rise and (Possible) Fall of Chinese Township-Village Enterprises by Brett McDonnell
		The success of Chinese township-village enterprises (TVEs) poses a puzzle for a property rights approach to the theory of the firm, since no one really holds well-defined, transferable property rights to control and claim the residual profits of TVEs.
		TVEs also pose a second puzzle: in the last five or seven years, they have started to experience serious problems, despite reforms which have improved TVEs from a property rights perspective.
		TVEs were less imperfect than their leading alternatives, state-owned enterprises and private enterprises, the latter of which faced much discrimination.
