The widespread penetration and rapid development of digital technologies have posed unprecedented challenges to global economic, social, and cultural structures, prompting in-depth discussions within academia and society on the issue of ″digital colonialism.″ Previous studies on ″digital colonialism″ have focused on aspects such as technological control and economic dominance, calling for new theoretical perspectives to establish a comprehensive and multi-dimensional analytical framework. Within the postcolonial theoretical framework, ″digital colonialism″ shares structural similarities with postcolonialism in terms of economic exploitation, cultural alienation, and the construction of the ″Other,″ signifying a new paradigm of global cultural and economic control. Postcolonial theory provides a theoretical framework and methodology for interpreting ″digital colonialism,″ emphasizing the value of indigenous cultures and offering theoretical tools for China to identify and reflect on marginalized voices within the context of globalization. A multi-dimensional research approach helps to understand the essence of digital colonialism, promote equitable global development of information technologies, and construct an open, inclusive, and diverse digital civilization ecosystem.

Ecological Discourse Analysis, as one of the main research paradigms in the field of Ecolinguistics, has gradually gained acceptance in discourse studies focusing on ecological issues during its rise. Its research path implies three stages. Firstly, at the macro level, it clarifies the guiding ideology or the ecosophy for the judgment of the ecological orientation of discourse; secondly, at the meso and micro levels, it conducts discourse analysis to reveal the ecological orientation of discourse; thirdly, it proposes ecological suggestions to enhance people's ecological awareness, and to guide their ecological behavior. Given the current research status, in order to better promote ecological discourse analysis to serve ecological civilization education and construction, the academic community needs to strengthen the interpretation of guiding ideology and the exploration of relevant guidelines at the macro level, to enhance the reference and comprehensive application of interdisciplinary theoretical means and research methods at the meso and micro levels, and to pay more attention to the effectiveness and operability of ecological suggestions in specific practices.

High quality development has become the primary task of comprehensively building a modern socialist country. Further research on the influencing factors and laws of high quality development is an important theoretical and practical issue at present. Based on the provincial-level panel data from 2000 to 2021, this study constructs fixed effect models, threshold effect models, and mediating effect models. Findings show that the level of factor marketization can promote high quality economic development. Specifically, it promotes innovative development, but has an inhibitory effect on coordinated development, mainly on industrial structure coordination and urban-rural coordination. Geographically, the level of factor marketization in the eastern, central, and northeastern regions has promoted high quality economic development, mainly promoting innovative development, while the level of factor marketization in the eastern region has suppressed coordinated development. Horizontally, there is a threshold effect in the level of factor marketization, which significantly promotes high quality economic development and innovative development after crossing the threshold value, but is not conducive to coordinated development. Factor marketization, through its promotion of economic growth, provides a material basis for solving urban-rural income inequality and environmental problems, but its indirect promotion of coordinated urban-rural development is offset by its direct inhibitory effect, and its indirect promotion of green development is ″covered″ by its direct inhibitory effect. The level of factor marketization suppresses the sharing level between provinces. The study conclusion contributes to mechanism research of the impact of marketization on high quality economic development, to better understanding the laws of high quality economic development, and to the promotion of market-oriented construction to assist the high quality development of China’s economy.

Modern society, which boasts of ″science, technology, and progress″, has surpassed countless previous eras, achieving modern progress and creating a nightmare for modern people as well. In a society filled with escalating conflicts and tensions, a new form of teenage suicide has emerged—digital suicide. ″Blue Whale Challenge″ is a representative of digital suicide games, which is based on psychological technology and designs a series of ″psychological trapping″ mechanisms. The Blue Whale games use system desensitization technology to increase the fear threshold of self-harm among teenagers, increase the pain threshold through self-harm practice, endow death with worship meaning through cognitive reshaping, and use rewards and threats to kidnap teenagers in virtual cages and complete suicide missions. The essence of adolescent suicide is that family conflicts and interpersonal dilemmas caused by conflicts in modern society are difficult to reconcile with individual adolescents. Teenagers find it difficult to coordinate their conflicting ″self experiences″ and ″external experiences,″ which leads to low self-esteem, low values, and a sense of life meaninglessness. Therefore, the countermeasures against online suicide games require the joint participation of society, schools, and families.

The studies of aesthetic in Song Dynasty is undergoing transformation based on three paradigms. There are three major driving forces for the transformation of Song-Dynasty aesthetics: the changing multi-ethnic Chinese circle from the Five Dynasties to the Song Dynasty, the newly-emerged urban mass culture in the Song Dynasty, and the new type of scholar-gentry group that emerged during the Song Dynasty. The aesthetics of the Song Dynasty was mainly centered around the scholar-gentry. The aesthetics of the scholar-gentry has three particularly remarkable aspects. First, among the urban scholar-officials, an elegant art system of scholar-gentry courtyards emerged. Second, the group of scholar-gentry who emphasized literature, through interaction with the imperial painting academy, developed the art philosophy of literati painting. Third, among the scholar-gentry who failed to obtain imperial examination degrees, some of them, as they spread to various social strata, entered and developed the urban performing aesthetics system. If we view the transformation of Song-Dynasty aesthetics from the perspective of Chen Yinque's view of the Song-dynasty culture reaching its ″pinnacle″, Song-Dynasty Ci, as the core of this ″pinnacle″, has a leading role in influencing the transformation of Song-Dynasty aesthetics research.

Artificial intelligence has shown great potential in enhancing historical research. However, it currently faces challenges related to insufficient professionalism, low reliability and credibility, as well as inadequate explainability and traceability. Under the guidance of new propositions such as all-source literature, computability, final full texts, and evidence-based traceability, the establishment of a digital infrastructure for ″intelligent historiography″ is imperative. This infrastructure facilitates a comprehensive evidence chain through bidirectional tracing of ″bibliographic catalog — digital objects — final texts — knowledge bases — knowledge linkages,″ which can effectively address the aforementioned challenges associated with AI's integration into historical research. Furthermore, this development has the potential to transform the traditional paradigm that posits historians must first become adept in the collection and organization of materials and then become scholars who can control documents. With the support of digital technology, both ″historical material collation″ and ″historical research″ will evolve toward greater specialization, seeming like there is a ″transparent membrane″ boundary between the two that is visible yet without necessitating for direct penetration into each other's domains. This will collectively promote the advancement of historical research.

Regarding the relationship between Lu Xun and traditional culture, more scholars believe that Lu Xun presented a dualistic attitude towards traditional culture. However, the analysis of Lu Xun's dualistic attitude towards traditional culture in academia has mostly focused on his later period and relatively overlooked the analysis of his early stages. In fact, during Lu Xun's growth in Shaoxing, due to his dualistic experience of reading cultural classics and other works at home and in private schools, the different influences of people around him who were immersed in traditional culture on Lu Xun, and Lu Xun's perception of the negativity and deceptive aspects of traditional culture after family changes, coupled with the dual comprehension given to Lu Xun by Shaoxing customs, Lu Xun gradually showed a dual nature in his attitude towards traditional culture.

The essence of international Chinese education is to build a ″Chinese language″ bridge to China for all countries in the world, promoting cultural communication, exchange and mutual learning. To ensure its steady, healthy, efficient and high-quality development, efforts must be made on many aspects, but priority should be given to five key ″musts″: clarifying the responsibilities and mission of international Chinese language education; placing a high priority on the teaching of written Chinese; entrusting local Chinese teachers with the primary teaching tasks in overseas international Chinese language education; implementing a ″digital″ transformation in international Chinese language education; and gradually developing the ″Chinese + X″ teaching model. These five ″musts″ underscore a fundamental principle: international Chinese language education should be academically driven, with research at the forefront, and should embody international consciousness, a global outlook, and a service-oriented mindset.

Language planning is a discipline that seeks to address the needs of nations and societies by regulating and optimizing languages. Ecolinguistics investigates the interplay among language users, languages and their environments. Language planning is grounded in language ecology, which is, in turn, greatly influenced by language planning itself. Nevertheless, their relationship remains unclear due to the lack of a systematic literature review. An integrative literature review spanning from the 1950s to the present can provide a comprehensive overview of the origins, interfaces and developments of language planning and ecolinguistics. The origins of both disciplines can be traced back to Einar Haugen, a Norwegian-American linguist, who coined the ecological concepts and tried to apply them into language planning. Since the mid-1980s, language planning has undergone an ″ecological turn″, with the emergence of metaphorical paradigm in ecolinguistics symbolizing the interface between language planning and ecolinguistics. From the 1990s to the present, the ″discursive turn″ in language planning and the rise of non-metaphorical paradigm in ecolinguistics signify a new trend in their mutual development. This evolution is expected to continue manifesting across various topics, including the assessments and planning of language ecology, the documentation of language resources, and the micro-analysis of policy discourse.

Silence is an intermediate state and daily experience, which has an important influence on our social life. In daily life, the intermediate state of silence is specifically manifested in the mediocre and average world of ″ordinary people″, and its subject is the ″silent majority″. The intermediate state of silence, formed by the cooperation of all individuals, is a kind of collective tacit understanding and relational orientation. It is a behavior of ″complicity″, which reflects the relationship between people that is coordinated rather than isolated, negotiated rather than directive, and consensual rather than authoritarian. Silence as an intermediate state is transformable. ″Complicit silence″ not only endows the group a certain degree of stability and security, but also implies the possibility of breaking the silence.

Directed by Xin Shuang, The Long Season is set against the backdrop of the restructuring of China′s old industrial regions in the 1990s. Through an unsolved case, it interweaves the fates of different groups of people during the transition period, presenting a tragic picture of individuals struggling and traumatised by their existential dilemmas, and their misplaced values amid drastic societal changes. The social connotation of individual destiny and historical transformations expressed in the drama is illuminated by the theory of ″individualisation″ by German sociologist Ulrich Beck and the concept of ″modern tragedy″ by British cultural theorist Raymond Williams. Drawing on Sun Liping′s theory of ″transformation and rupture″, The Long Season reveals, in the form of a suspenseful narrative, the phenomenon of the ″founding generation″ in the process of Chinese ″individualization″: on the one hand, the separation of the individual from the unitary system, and on the other hand, the reintegration of the founding generation in the absence of a corresponding social support system. This unique process of ″individualization″ has led to a rupture in identity formation and a crisis of mental trauma, which emerges in the narrative through the death and revenge of the ″second generation″. Through the narrative strategy of suspense, the ″second generation″ retrospectively review their own growing-up experience, inadvertently touching on the hidden aspects of the transformation of the era in the 1990s, and displaying the process of ″non-individualistic individualization″ of this generation.

Research on Song-Dynasty aesthetics holds a crucial position within the overall framework of Chinese aesthetic history. It has long been centered on the beauty of art.However, in the past decade or so, it has gradually broken through this research pattern and moved towards a more diversified and interconnected research model that is more in line with the original appearance of Chinese aesthetics. The changes in Song-Dynasty aesthetics research are reflected not only in the expansion of art-aesthetics research within the original structure but also in the proposal of associated aesthetics with Song-Dynasty characteristics, such as scholar-gentry aesthetics and life aesthetics. According to recent data, in the past more than ten years, Song-Dynasty aesthetics, which has shifted from being art-centered to being life-oriented and associated with various aspects of culture, is under construction. Two important new research topics among them are ″festivals and celebrations of the year″ and ″performances of skills and arts″. From the analysis of existing research, the aesthetics of festivals and celebrations of the year should develop a three-dimensional and systematic aesthetic research on the basis of cultural, documentary, and literary research. The aesthetics of performances of skills and arts needs to improve the research on the art departments of opera, acrobatics, and vernacular story-telling novels to restore and present the overall appearance and aesthetic features of Song-Dynasty performances of skills and arts. The transformation of Song-Dynasty aesthetics research is part of the overall transformation of Chinese aesthetics research, and the diversified and interconnected research model will present the unique and rich features of Chinese aesthetics.

Aesthetic philosophy of time is one of the most important dimensions in aesthetics. The core of Marxist aesthetic time philosophy is the aesthetic temporality of a communist life. The revolution of Marxist aesthetics in Western aesthetics is primarily the revolution of aesthetic temporality. Starting from this, they regarded aesthetic wealth as one of the forms of wealth, restored and criticized the capitalist time system and time exploitation as the main forms of aesthetic wealth distribution inequality, and used communist aesthetic life as a timely basis for future social construction. From the perspective of restoration, they conducted field investigations into the actual situations of work and life among the working class, preserved these conditions through the lenses of interpersonal aesthetics and work aesthetics, and obtained first-hand materials. From a critical perspective, they argue that the root of the capitalist time system lies in private ownership, and the exploitation of aesthetic wealth is primarily based on time exploitation. In terms of construction, they criticized the asceticism of religion and capitalism based on the communist aesthetic time system, especially the relationship between the free time system and aesthetic life, and depicted a beautiful blueprint.

Urban social resilience is an important component of urban resilience. In contrast to the resilience of key urban facilities, the formation of social resilience requires more complex cross-boundary activities. The social governance reform guided by collaborative governance aims to enhance society′s capacity to mitigate and respond to risks from the perspective of overall national security. Urban social resilience governance needs to adapt to the characteristics of risk dispersion by conducting boundary connections and joint actions between government and society, among public sectors, and between online and offline domains to enhance social resilience. Boundary communication, boundary organizations, and boundary objects effectively reconcile the differences among actors. By leveraging digital technologies, diverse social entities can establish routine partnerships and generate multiple autonomous response networks under the activation of sudden emergencies. This meets the needs of addressing various types of social risks. Boundary perspective analysis elaborates the formation process of social resilience and provides a richer toolkit for urban resilience governance.

Public life in the digital age does not occur solely through ″public discussion″. Under certain conditions, silent communication is more effective in assuming the function of public life than public discussion. This communication regarding public affairs, either by ″remaining silent″ or ″not being explicit″, constitutes ″public tacit communication″. ″Public tacit communication″ is underpinned by China's unique linguistic and cultural concepts and social-historical forms. The reason why people can communicate through silence and reach a consensus in public tacit communication is that there is a common life world and shared bodily experiences ensuring the meaning. In the age of information explosion, public tacit communication, through silence and omission, reveals the dialectical movement between speaking and silence, expression and non-expression. It offers us a glimpse, within an ironic tension, of the possibilities created by language and public life at their boundaries.

Michel Foucault and Agnes Heller were both prominent philosophers in the second half of the 20th century. The former had a profound impact on the latter′s theoretical transformation, specifically presented in the dimensions of biopolitics and ethical aesthetics. Foucault′s later thought exhibited a clear ethical turn. He included self-care in the prescription for addressing the crisis of modernity and creatively introduced the concept of ″existential aesthetics,″ thereby generating an aesthetics-infused self-ethics. Heller associated biopolitics with ethical issues, placing particular emphasis on Foucault′s self-care theory. She proposed a personal ethics that focused on individual autonomous choice, emphasized the subject′s sensual practice of emotional management, and identified beauty as the inherent content of ethics rather than mere decoration. From Foucault′s existential aesthetics to Heller′s personal-ethical aesthetics, both focused on the sensuous modes of ethical subjectivity, providing an important aesthetic path for the reconstruction of ethical subjects. They also offered a new opportunity for paradigmatic transformation in the bidirectional interaction between contemporary ethics and aesthetics, jointly advancing the ethical turn in contemporary aesthetics.

The traditional methods of textual criticism in classical Chinese studies have developed over a period of thousands of years, covering multiple aspects such as philology and linguistics, and have especially formed profound academic accumulations in fields like terminology, phonology, exegesis, and textual collation. New tools provided by digital humanities, such as digitization of ancient books, text mining, Geographic Information System (GIS) technology, and network analysis techniques, can further improve the efficiency and breadth of traditional research. The contemporary disciplinary direction of digital humanities also lies on the historical extension line of textual research on classics and histories. New technology does not mean discarding tradition. The methods of textual research on classics and histories have always contained the demand for ″data-processing″ since the earliest sentence-analysis, lexicography, and bibliography. The application of computer technology can be an iterative upgrade of traditional research methods. To prevent digital humanities from becoming a superficial and ″hollow″ technology, it is necessary to deepen the understanding of traditional research methods in humanities and make the technology truly serve research.

The institutional evolution of intra-party peer supervision of the Communist Party of China can be divided into four stages, namely, from imitating the supervisory committee system of the Communist Party of Russia (Bolsheviks) to the discipline inspection function created by the establishment of the Central Review Committee and the Central Party Affairs Committee of the CPC, to the establishment of the Party′s internal supervision institutions under the Party committees at all levels throughout the Party, and to the reconstruction of the Supervisory Committee in 1955 and the continuous strengthening of the supervision power over the party committees at the same level. Historical development shows that there exists a corresponding tension between the system of mutual supervision at the same level and democratic centralism. After the Third Plenary Session of the 11th Central Committee of the Party, the Party Central Committee rebuilt the Discipline Inspection Commission and continuously strengthened its dual leadership system, giving the Discipline Inspection Commission a dual identity and creating two levels of connotation of mutual supervision at the same level. Since the 18th CPC National Congress, the CPC Central Committee has solved the problem of mutual supervision at the same level on the basis of democratic centralism and the basic system of intra-Party political life through the construction of the intra-Party supervision system, the hierarchical responsibility system of the Commission for Discipline Inspection, and the strengthening of supervision over the ″top leader″ and the leadership team, and has built a more dense and more restrictive cooperative power supervision system. The development process of the intra-Party mutual supervision system from exogenous to endogenous has demonstrated its lasting liveliness and vitality, and also demonstrated the superiority of the power supervision system with Chinese characteristics.

In the Song Dynasty, scholars were the principal part of tea culture, and the aesthetic features of ″scholar-tea″ thus became the optimal representation of tea aesthetics. The appreciation environments of ″scholar-tea″ mainly consist of four categories: feasts and banquets, courtyards and pavilions, imperial courts, and mountain-forest monasteries, with their aesthetic traits being jubilant and colorful, leisurely and elegant, exquisite and noble, and pure and delightful respectively. The appreciation techniques of ″scholar-tea″ include Jiancha, which adheres to simplicity and is imbued with an ancient charm, Diancha, which pursues delicacy and has superb color, aroma, and taste, and Tocha and Fencha, which value the beauty of competition and performance. Among them, Jiancha emphasizes ″thriftiness″, Diancha emphasizes ″elegance″, and Tōcha and Fencha emphasize ″amusement″, jointly constituting the appreciation concept of ″scholar-tea″. Influenced by the aesthetic tastes of the court and the common people, Song-Dynasty scholars incorporated the refined beauty of the court and the popular beauty of the common people into the traditional thrifty ideology, jointly shaping the diverse and unique aesthetic style of ″scholar-tea″.

Since the beginning of the new century, the binary opposition between new and old in the study of modern and contemporary Chinese literature has been gradually dissipated, and modern and contemporary classical style Chinese literature, represented by classical style poetry, has increasingly received academic attention. Many works on the history of modern and contemporary Chinese literature have begun to attempt to integrate classical style literature into the narrative of literary history as a whole. Since historiography is the foundation of history, it is necessary to establish the historiography of modern and contemporary classical style Chinese literature as a prerequisite for compiling a history of modern and contemporary classical style Chinese literature. The existing historiography of modern and contemporary Chinese literature mainly refers to the historiography of new literature. Only by establishing a relatively complete historiography of classical style literature, combining old and new, can the historiography of modern and contemporary Chinese literature be worthy of its name. The history materials of modern and contemporary classical style literature can be roughly divided into social life materials centered on writers, such as writer's chronology and chronicle, biography, memoirs, diaries, letters, etc.; literary creation materials centered on works, including historical materials of classical style poetry, classical style prose, classical style novels, and classical style drama; and literary communication and acceptance materials centered on readers, such as classical style literature materials carried by newspapers, books, salons, and the Internet. Only by properly recognizing the work of modern and contemporary classical style literature materials can we promote the transformation of modern and contemporary literary research from a new literary standard to a dual standard of new and old literature. In terms of the comprehensive application of classical philological methods for the study of historical materials of modern and contemporary classical style literature, the current application of compilation and annotation methods have achieved significant results, while there is still considerable academic space for the application of bibliography, textual criticism, collection, and discrimination methods, which can generate many academic growth points. Only by adhering to and promoting the traditional Chinese spirit of Pu Xue, and taking the path of socialization and modernization in historical materials work, can we push the emerging historiography of modern and contemporary Chinese classical style literature to new academic heights.

The proposal and practice of the ″Resilient Cities″ concept have driven the evolution and renewal of urban disaster response strategies. A resilience-based urban disaster response strategy recognizes both the importance of ″robust″ measures and the uncertainty of disasters while seeking to establish a dynamic and compatible disaster perception model. This approach alleviates many issues associated with traditional ″high-confrontation″ strategies. Given the multifaceted important role of emergency rescue force construction in enhancing urban resilience, its concept should be updated based on ″resilience″ and advanced through institutionalized means. The resilience-oriented construction of emergency rescue forces is reflected in the pursuit of robustness, redundancy, and recoverability. Specific pathways for institutionalization include: strengthening the planning of emergency rescue force construction, particularly by clarifying the division of labor mechanisms among various forces; facilitating autonomous cooperation channels and obligatory complementary mechanisms among these forces; and enhancing evaluation mechanisms for the effectiveness of emergency rescue force construction.

Wang Meng often talks about 19th century Russian literature, but there are many misunderstandings and estrangements. The reason for this is that his rational considerations and values are misaligned. He lacks emotional identification and value understanding of 19th century Russian literature. His ″Crucifixion″ is a dialogue with the great writers of 19th century Russia on the level of faith, but it reflects the spiritual alienation and dissonance between them. Wang Meng's latest works identify the ″pathological″ view of 19th century Russian literature because, even in his old age, he is still a spiritual ″outsider″ to Tolstoy and others.

Currently, disciplinary inspection and supervision agencies are facing many challenges such as a sharp increase in the number of cases and the demand of high-quality handling of cases. Empowering the disciplinary inspection and supervision agencies with artificial intelligence is a crucial method and means for seizing opportunities and addressing challenges. Artificial intelligence technology has played a conspicuous role in the panoramic management of disciplinary inspection and supervision cases, tracking case clues, improving prevention effectiveness, and intelligent analysis of similar case handling information. However, the legal risks caused by artificial intelligence technology need to be urgently addressed, including the objectivity of results affected by shortage of information data and algorithmic defects, erosion of the exclusive nature of supervisory power due to the dependence of investigators on technology, and challenge of the traditional disciplinary inspection and supervision accountability mechanisms due to algorithmic decision-making biases. Therefore, measures should be taken to improve the use of artificial intelligence to assist disciplinary inspection and supervision in handling cases, including promoting centralized and unified data resources, improving algorithm security and transparency, constructing a reasonable labor division mechanism of ″human-machine coupling″, improving the technical level of disciplinary inspection and supervision agencies, and clarifying the boundaries and allocation of human-machine responsibilities.

Marx′s political science is linked to the Party and discipline education activities through the concept of ″principled politics″, that is, as a Marxist party, the Communist Party of China adheres to the two major principles provided by Marx′s political theory in its discipline education activities: one is to solve the alienation from one′s own specific humanity from the perspective of practical materialism; the other is to bridge the contradiction between the universality of the state and the privacy of individuals from the perspective of state-society relations. From the perspective of the two core propositions of Marx′s political science—practice and alienation, the Party′s discipline construction and discipline education are fundamentally a kind of ideological practice and political practice pointing to communism. It originates, in the process of modernization, from the clear understanding and accurate grasp of the Communist Party members as real people and the Communist Party organizations they constitute. In essence, it intends to overcome atomization through organization, overcome privateness with publicness, and bridge the gap between special interests and common interests.

In recent years, as precarity in China′s economic environment has intensified, people have become increasingly eager to build a sense of reliance and continuity in the everyday crises. Closely tied to precarious experiences, the ″1990s″ has emerged as a popular theme in China′s cultural and academic fields. Beyond literature and film, video games have also become a new medium participating in this wave of nostalgia. Retro nostalgia games like Bad Kids mediate the figure of the ″Child Flâneur,″ which simultaneously serves as a game avatar, a nostalgic paradigm, and a mode of adaption. Its repertoires of ″finding joy in hardship″ and ″turning over a new leaf″ evoke two contrasting imaginations of everyday life: one that critically seeks to master and redefine everydayness amid precarity, and another that finds security through a conservative return to conventions and ideologies. The dialectical tension between these two gestures suggests that as the middle-class ideal of a ″good life″ becomes increasingly unattainable under the new normal, nostalgia serves as both a response to and an adaptation to the anxieties and uncertainties in the historical present.

China′s modernity is closely related to a new sense of time. Photography, due to its inherent temporality, has become a medium for modern intellectuals to expand their visual boundaries and integrate into the global ″advanced″ cultural system. In the early 20^th century, a group of amateur photographers in Shanghai launched a new vision movement, bringing about the sprout of the Chinese photography modernism. They showed a clear scientific consciousness, questioned the standard of ″Pictorialism″ in the classical period of photography, and turned to explore the ontology of photography. Modernist photography has undergone the localization in transnational travel, becoming a link between the pursuit of personal subjectivity and the narrative of national survival, and constructing people′s cultural imagination of national competition and modern urban life.

In the Northern Song Dynasty, most scholars were comprehensive talents with multiple identities such as literati, scholars, and politicians. As officials, most of them cherished the ideal of helping the world and shared the sentiment of worrying before others and enjoying pleasures later. However, when such ideals were implemented in reality, they often got trapped in officialdom struggles. Therefore, they aspired to build a private space outside the officialdom to resolve the contradiction between entering and leaving officialdom and obtain peace and freedom of body and mind. The functions of literati and scholars were fully exerted, and the prosperity of literature and art in the Northern Song Dynasty was closely related to this. Gardens were one of them. Firstly, gardens could be regarded as personal nature outside the officialdom, where scholars could gain the joy of freedom. Secondly, gardens were constructed in a freehand manner, and the tastes of literati were reflected everywhere. Thirdly, through the construction and appreciation of gardens, scholars achieved identity recognition. Aesthetically speaking, gardens played multiple roles in the lives of scholars. Cultural activities such as poetry and prose creation, and appreciation of calligraphy and painting not only demonstrated the cultural literacy and aesthetic tastes of scholars but also became an important part of their social interactions. More importantly, gardens were the tools for scholars to construct their identity and social status. By creating and experiencing these private spaces, scholars shaped and disseminated an elite culture and led the aesthetic trends at a broader social level.

Facing the memory crisis caused by the successive passing of Nanjing Massacre survivors and the dwindling number of living historical witnesses, the responsibility for sustaining and disseminating survivors′ memories has gradually shifted to their descendants. Due to the political situation and the ″unspeakable″ nature of the trauma, survivors remained silent about their traumatic memories for a long time until the 1980s, when the status of the Nanjing Massacre agenda was elevated. At the same time, the survivors′ active narratives catalyzed the internal transmission of massacre memories within their families. Through survivors′ oral testimonies and physical presence, supplemented by spatial sites and memorial installations beyond family settings, traumatic memories have been increasingly transmitted and embedded in the memories of their descendants. In this context, survivors′ traumatic memories constitute the cornerstone of their descendants′ autobiographical memory narratives, while the descendants achieve boundary expansion and re-contextualization of survivors′ memories through the collaborative shaping of multiple memory narratives.

Unlike the legal norms and departmental legislative power established on the basis of traditional rule of law theory, the power to formulate supervisory regulations has been deeply shaped by the party and government system. The joint office system, request for instructions and report mechanism and high-level promotion mechanism under the party and government system have shaped the ″dual attribute of law and government″ of the right to formulate supervision laws and regulations, and shaped the supervision laws and regulations as the institutional existence in the self revolutionary system of the CPC, the compatibility system rules for assuming the functions of party building, and the core link between the rule of law and the rule of the Party in the anti-corruption field. From the perspective of shaping logic, the shaping of the power of the party and government system to formulate supervisory regulations can be divided into three logics, namely, the process shaping led by the request and report mechanism, the conceptual shaping driven by the high-level promotion mechanism, and the organizational shaping based on the joint office system, achieving the unity of the Party′s political leadership, ideological leadership, and organizational leadership. The above-mentioned shaping of the party and government system has created a series of practical difficulties for the operation of the power to formulate supervisory regulations, mainly reflected in the complexity of the basis for the operation of the power to formulate supervisory regulations and its authority dilemma, the closed nature of the operation process and its procedural dilemma, the joint nature and effectiveness dilemma of the operation subject, the specificity of the operation goal and its supervision dilemma. The fundamental way to resolve the above-mentioned difficulties relies on the party and government system, adhering to the leadership of the Party, optimizing the formulation authority, operational procedures, effectiveness levels, and supervision system of supervisory regulations, so as to demonstrate the ″autonomous approach to the construction of China′s anti-corruption regulatory system″.

For a long time, the study of modern visual media technologies, represented by film, television, and digital archives, has often fallen into the trap of a linear view of history centered on media perception and temporal experience of humanity: The history of visual technology development is frequently viewed as a continuous and homogeneous narrative of progress. However, with the rise of the discourse around archives in the late 20th century and the increasing normalization of archival practices, visual media technologies are no longer seen as passive carriers of text and symbols but are recognized as having their generative capacities. This shift has introduced a materialist perspective to visual studies that moves away from anthropocentric approaches. Media archaeologists who hold archives in high regard employ archival theory as a method to emphasize the discontinuities, contingencies, and similarities caused by the lag in human sensory perception among the three modern visual media technologies. At the same time, from the perspective of visual archives, they highlight the disintegration and reconfiguration of traditional archival theories and storage spaces against the backdrop of technological transitions from analog to electronic and digital.

Attaching great importance to discipline construction is a fine tradition and distinctive feature of the CPC, and is of great significance for strengthening the unity of the Party and consolidating its long-term ruling position. As a fundamental strategy for comprehensively and strictly governing the Party in the new era, the Party′s discipline construction has achieved significant results. The results of the structural equation model analysis indicate that improving the scientificity of the formulation of party rules, strengthening party discipline education, and strictly promoting discipline enforcement and supervision have a positive effect on the effectiveness of the Party′s discipline construction. In the new era and new journey, we must always adhere to the concept of full-cycle management, and promote the Party′s discipline formulation, discipline education, enforcement and supervision in the same direction and comprehensive force, so as to form a completely closed loop of the Party′s discipline construction to continuously enhance its effectiveness.

In traditional Chinese society, ordinary villagers were extensively involved in local community affairs, and the term ″public″ held practical significance, yet they typically did not engage in external political matters. During the late Qing Dynasty and the early Republic of China, political transformations awakened new-style scholars and political figures, who then emphasized the populace's responsibilities towards the nation. As the relationship between the people and the state was redefined, the traditional detachment of rural people from the government was challenged, and their accustomed silence was frequently attacked. In the early years of the Republic of China, there was an imbalance between the old and new systems; people nominally had rights but lacked substantive channels for political participation. However, when personal or community interests were threatened, they expressed their demands in various forms. After the establishment of the Nanjing government, the government increased the burden on the populace, which led to a sharp increase in conflicts between officials and the people and more intense expressions of people's demands. At the same time, the Kuomintang's relationship with grassroots people was distant, but its power seeped into local communities, causing political unrest and a drastic change in the traditional public participation patterns of rural villagers.

Intelligent discipline inspection is not only to meet the needs of power supervision in the digital age, but also to adapt to the national anti-corruption goal. Compared with digital supervision, the concept of intelligent discipline inspection and supervision emphasizes the use of intelligent technology and the humanistic care shown by technology. At present, the intelligent discipline inspection and supervision shows the practice pattern of workflow type, early warning analysis type and auxiliary case handling type, the essence of which is to build an integrated, accurate, element-oriented and holographic discipline inspection and supervision system. However, the intelligent discipline inspection and supervision also presents the imbalance of the relationship between technology and system in the institutional dimension, the expansion effect of supervision power in the power dimension, the deconstruction of supervision procedures in the procedural dimension, and the closed problem of algorithmic technology in the technical dimension. In the future, the intelligent discipline inspection and supervision should clearly define the framework for the innovation of the discipline inspection system and mechanism promoted by technology empowerment and the ″technology-driving + legal guidance″, and construct the system in a dual way of wisdom and rule of law. Specifically, it includes improving the intelligent discipline inspection and supervision normative system at the institutional level, reshaping the relationship between power and rights of the intelligent discipline inspection and supervision at the power level, controlling the technology application process in the procedural aspect, and promoting the responsiveness and responsibility of algorithmic technology at the algorithmic level.

Since the second half of the 20th century, the study of the history of the War of Resistance against Japan in the English-language scholarly community has undergone a series of changes, from the traditional fields of revolutionary history and political history to the detailed examination of military history and social history, as well as grassroots Sino-American relations. At the same time, the global study of the history of the War of Resistance against Japan in English has also benefited from the discovery and compilation of English historical materials from various places. In addition to the military history of the Anti-Japanese War and the re-examination of the history of Sino-American relations, the new trend of the study of the history of the Anti-Japanese War in the English-language academic community since the beginning of the 21st century is mainly reflected in the relevant research on the social history of the War and the history of daily life such as refugees, suffering, women, children, and wartime medical care. Moreover, databases represented by the ″Anti-Japanese War Literature Data Platform″ have sorted out a large number of rare English newspapers and archives of the War in recent years, laying a solid foundation for the study of the history of the War of Resistance against Japan.

Sun Yu′s last film was the drama film Qin Niangmei, which has long been ignored by film historians. The movie Qin Niangmei was adapted from the Qian drama Qin Niangmei, which was born from the Dong oral art ZhuLang NiangMei. Director Sun Yu omitted the storyline of the heroine in ZhuLang NiangMei in the second half of her life, such as remarrying and having children. The film Qin Niangmei reflects the mutual interaction and coupling of Dong culture and Han culture, as well as the director′s romantic spirit and folk aesthetic preference. It shows the director′s continuous exploration of poetic national style and his persistent pursuit of idyllic paradise, folk spirit, and rural femininity. The intermediality of the film Qin Niangmei reflects the director′s artistic ideal of attempting to bridge the boundaries between poetry, music, dance, drama, and cinema. The gains and shortcomings of the movie Qin Niangmei reveal the tension between Sun Yu′s later artistic pursuits and the emotional structure of the ″Seventeen Years″ cinema.

The new quality productive forces provide new ideas and solutions for preventing and resolving the economic risks of deindustrialization. These ideas and solutions show a high degree of consistency in the internal logic in the five dimensions of underlying logic, driving engine, internal requirements, practice bottom line and key driving force. They all take human-oriented connotation as the development concept, scientific and technological innovation as the development driving force, stable proportion of manufacturing as the development goal, autonomy and controllability, safety and reliability as the development principles, and industrial iteration as the development path. The new productive forces prevent and resolve product risks by improving the independent, controllable, safe and reliable industrial chain and supply chain capabilities; cultivate opportunities to prevent and resolve factor risks by accelerating manufacturing technology innovation, capital accumulation and creating entrepreneurial talents; prevent and resolve market risks by creating ″structural dividends″ and narrowing the income gap; and prevent and resolve foreign exchange risks by improving the production capacity and competitiveness of industrial products. Development of new quality productivity can form high-level scientific and technological self-reliance, high-quality capital, and ″four-understanding″ strategic entrepreneurial talents, accelerate the construction of a unified national market and actively integrate into the international market, and achieve the goal of a strong manufacturing country.

In the Paris Manuscripts, Marx explored the path from human nature to aesthetic liberation. This dimension of aesthetic-political emancipation has found strong resonance in the thought of contemporary philosopher and aesthetician Jacques Rancière. Marx posited that human essence lies in free and conscious life, and that the objectification of human essence represents the objectifying activity of all human life forces, embodying the freedom and joy of life. From the perspective of sensory liberation, the realization of communism, defined as the comprehensive emancipation of human free life activities, also constitutes a form of aesthetic liberation. Rancière, however, diverges from Marx by extending the notion of sensory deprivation caused by alienated labor to encompass the unequal sensory distribution imposed by society upon the ″part of those that have no part″. He further concretizes Marx′s concept of species-being liberation by reinterpreting it as the aesthetic liberation of the oppressed within social hierarchies. Through his inheritance and development of Marx′s early theories on sensory and aesthetic liberation, Rancière, as a reader of the Paris Manuscripts, has effectively modernized and contextualized Marx′s dimension of aesthetic-political emancipation.

In the digital era, China′s digital news producers include three basic types of media: public media, commercial media, and personal media; public media consists of traditional media, government media, and other public media; the three types of subjects are not completely closed, and there exists an impetus for mutual transformation among them. Because of the fundamental differences in the goal-setting of the three types of media, the uniqueness of the digital news system from other social systems lies in the fact that ″news is used to make things happen″, which is different from the traditional media′s claim that ″news naturally serves the community″ during the period of mass communication. The new actors in digital journalism work at the interface of a blending of reality and virtualization, with their own characteristics of news production. In order to do a good job of news and public opinion work, in the future, we should introduce multiple subjects, especially new actors outside the traditional media, into journalism research as ″key variables″, so as to give equal importance to both professional news and everyday life news, and pay special attention to the relationship between the two and the mechanism of mutual transformation, and endeavour to promote the professionalisation of everyday life news.

This article provides an in-depth textual interpretation of Mo Yan′s novels, revealing the complex attitudes of farmers in the Jiaodong Peninsula towards the impact of modernity over the 20th century since the Anti-German War: drawing resources from local cultural traditions, seeking and obtaining the true essence of ″folk music″, and achieving positive creative results between the modernity and localization of literature. To create a new Chinese style sensory fiction with a rich and unfamiliar sensory description, to resist the harm of asceticism to human nature, as well as the alienation of human nature caused by capitalist instrumentalism, and to treat ″one-dimensional people″. Amidst the ups and downs of modernity, we pour out the suffering of farmers and the decline of rural areas, and focus more on shaping the image of ″ruthless people″ in rural areas, playing the final swan song for the heroism of farmers.

Artificial intelligence algorithms significantly shape discretion in grassroots governance. Automated, predictive, and generative algorithms each uniquely impact grassroots discretion. While automated algorithms may weaken discretion, predictive and generative algorithms can enhance decision-making capacity, albeit with new challenges. Further analysis shows that the impact of algorithms on grassroots discretion is complex, being moderated by individual cognition, organizational system, and organizational culture. At the individual cognitive level, grassroots staff may depend on or counter algorithms due to algorithmic or cognitive biases. At the organizational system level, the separation of algorithmic decision-making and execution affects autonomy, but internal feedback and supervision mechanisms help sustain discretion. At the organizational culture level, the control-oriented culture may restrict discretion, while an autonomy-oriented culture may enhance governance capabilities.
