Special Characteristics of China's Interprovincial Migration

This paper examines interprovincial migration in the People's Republic of China (PRC) during 1982–87 when China was going through economic restructuring. Chinese migration patterns bear some resemblances as well as dissimilarities with those generally observed in Western societies. In China, the age-specific migration rate does not vary much until the preretirement stage. Return to places of origin is obviously the most plausible explanation of Chinese migration patterns. In addition, a clear-cut gender gap exists, higher than that imagined in Western societies. Chinese women appear far behind Chinese men in their propensity to migrate, and the determinants of migration are quite different for Chinese women and Chinese men.     

Yiwu: Historical transformation and contributing factors

ABSTRACT

Yiwu has transformed from one of the poorest rural counties in the 1970s to one of the richest modern cities in China during the 2010s. This paper examines this significant historical transformation and its key contributing factors along the five dimensions: marketization, industrialization, urbanization, internationalization and digitalization. It also identifies what historical and contemporary factors stimulated the rapid growth of Yiwu and how Yiwu is a special case in comparison to other Chinese localities. This paper argues that business entrepreneurship, local government and their interaction have played particular roles in promoting Yiwu’s transformation. This study builds on and contributes to literature across the fields of development, entrepreneurship and anthropology. It demonstrates how entrepreneurship can promote development even if a region is lacking in what are often assumed to be necessary resources for development. However, for this to be the case there is the need for a supportive and risk-taking government.     

日本出国旅游需求与人均GDP关系实证研究——兼议对我国出境旅游发展的启示

首先,基于日本1964年～2008年出国旅游相关数据,得到日本出国旅游量的收入弹性,发现日本在人均GDP（按当年价格计算）达到2000～4000美元时,出国旅游呈现爆发性增长。其次,与我国的出境旅游进行对比研究,发现我国在现价人均GDP达到3000美元时,并未出现出境旅游爆发性增长的迹象。同时,研究发现,在北京和上海人均GDP达到3000美元以上时,出境旅游呈现爆发性增长,而广州人均GDP高达8000美元以上时,出境旅游才呈现爆发性增长。     

长沙风篷岭汉代漆器制作工艺中淀粉胶黏剂的分析

为研究汉代髹漆工艺中是否含有淀粉粘结剂,利用淀粉粒分析方法提取了长沙风篷岭汉墓出土的漆器残片中的残留物.实验结果显示:在偏光显微镜下观察到具有十字消光特性的淀粉颗粒,粒度大小在13至25μm,且有加热糊化的现象,加热温度在60至80℃,加热时间大约在30min以内.本实验证实在汉代漆器制作过程中使用了淀粉作为粘结剂,为研究汉代漆器的制作工艺提供了新的科学方法.     

A methodology to identify a network of industrial parks in the Ave valley,Portugal

In recent decades in Europe, municipalities have promoted many poorly qualified and widespread industrial parks. These policies have caused various problems such as oversupply of industrial land, obsolescence and high vacancy rates. The future of these sites is uncertain and has become a key issue in planning. Nowadays, policies are focused on upgrading these sites and on implementing regional coordinated practices. This paper describes a methodological approach to identifying a subregional network of industrial parks in the Ave valley, Portugal. The network is based on the parks’ attractiveness and has the purpose of supporting planning policies in terms of upgrading and providing new sites. The approach was based on a multi-criteria analysis whereby the parks were ranked according to their attractiveness considering their coverage in terms of infrastructures, services and accessibility. Results show that the majority of the existing and planned parks, even if upgraded, will not be very attractive and will be limited to a municipal scale due to structural problems related to their location and poor coverage. Moreover, the paper also discusses the challenges in implementing this planning approach at a subregional level. Despite the specificities of the case study, this methodology could be adopted in similar studies.     

朱熹《家礼》与明清徽州宗族以礼治族的实践

明清时期,在徽州社会中形成了对朱熹及其《家礼》极端崇拜的社会风气。徽州宗族多依据《家礼》进行本族内部的制度设计和制度建设,同时还十分重视对礼仪的执行与监督,旨在以此实现以礼治族、维持宗族社会秩序的目的。     

清前期贵州大定府铅的产量与运销

矿业深刻地影响着清王朝的货币与军器制造,以及西部民族地区的开发,成为康乾盛世的表征之一。当时矿业的成就,主要表现在铜与铅的开采和冶炼上。本文探讨清代最重要的铅产基地——贵州大定府的铅的产量、分配与运销,以期揭示偏僻的西南一隅在改土归流之后是如何影响到整个王朝国家的。     

抗日战争时期宪政运动若干问题的再研究

抗日战争时期的宪政运动,是中国现代史上争取政治民主化的重要组成部分,学术界曾推出过许多研究成果。不过,某些与宪政运动直接相关的问题,似乎或缺乏足够重视,或有待进一步探讨。本文对1939年与1943年前后两次宪政运动的实际发起因素、不同的争取重点、获得的有形成果三个方面进行了重新分析。在此基础上对目前宪政运动研究提出个人认识:第一,最早在国民参政会上提出实施宪政的提案,并非迄今认为的发起第一次宪政运动的七提案,只是由于七提案合并讨论,方形成共同发起宪政运动的既成事实。第二,第一次宪政运动的成果,虽然包括宪政思想宣传与宪政观念普及,但唯一的有形成果则是体现西方议会模式的“期成宪草”。第三,第二次宪政运动虽与联合政府运动有承继关系,但它不仅独立存在,而且也取得了三项成果,需要给予承认并加以客观评价。这三个问题关系到抗日战争时期宪政运动的完整性,因此也是今后这一研究中需要重视与补充的。     

《论语·八佾》“哀公问社（主）＂本字考

《论语·八佾》“哀公问”句原用的是“主”,而不是“社”。“主”,指宗庙中的祖先之主(即牌位),用木做,故称木主。“社”也有“主”义,但指土地神“主”,用石块或土堆做,故庙主与土地神“主”有明显的不同。
