Credit market tightness and zombie firms: theory and evidence by Hamano, M, Schnattinger, P, Shintani, M, Uesugi, I, Zanetti, F

Sequential phreatomagmatic eruptions during the lateral propagation of giant dyke swarms by Pryce, E, Cartwright, J, Kirkham, C, Phillips, D

“…The well data allow us to exclude crater forming mechanisms based on collapse into a void, but are consistent with those linked to phreatomagmatic eruption. We propose that the rapid cooling of dyke magma during the phreatomagmatic eruptive process was an important contributory factor in the upward arrest of dyke propagation, preventing surface extrusion and hence promoting lateral propagation.…”

The Internationalisation of Mainland Chinese Firms into Malaysia: From Obligated Embeddedness to Active Embeddedness by Lim, Guanie

“…I argue that the Malaysian state has enjoyed success in the construction sector by nurturing cooperation between its carefully groomed government-linked companies and mainland Chinese firms. Government-linked companies are useful coalition partners for the mainland Chinese firms because of the crucial role the state plays in creating a largely non-competitive industry that favours government-linked companies. …”
