	5	The Historical Dimensions of Modern People-Oriented Urban Development
		XIE Li-xia, WANG Dan-dan
		History is kept alive through cities, and cities possess unique qualities by carrying history. Building modern people-oriented cities embodies three historical dimensions: historical patience, historical context, and historical responsibility. Maintaining historical patience is an inherent requirement for taking the initiative in building modern people-oriented cities. This approach involves an objective understanding of historical processes and a systematic examination of historical missions. By integrating a strong sense of historical initiative into the development of modern people-oriented cities, it helps resolve contradictions and consolidate strength through mastering the pace of development. The continuation of historical context aims to consolidate the cultural ethos for building modern people-oriented cities, as it carries forward national cultural traditions and collective memories, nurtures cities’ unique spiritual character, and advances the progress of urban civilization. Embracing historical responsibility requires innovating practical approaches to constructing modern people-oriented cities, with people-oriented urbanization as the over-arching goal and connotative urban development as the strategic orientation, thereby exploring new pathways for urban modernization. Historical patience serves as the foundational prerequisite for cities to preserve their historical and cultural continuity; sustaining historical context provides the spiritual impetus for cities to fulfill their historical responsibilities; and undertaking historical responsibility defines the value orientation for maintaining historical patience. These three dimensions are interdependent and form an organic unity, collectively advancing urban modernization and demonstrating the civilizational significance of urban development within the context of Chinese modernization.

	13	Toward Global Co-Creation and Shared Benefits: The Transformation Logic and Ecosystem Construction of China’s Digital-Intelligent Online Literature
		HE Yu-fei
		Digital-intelligent technology is reshaping the production methods, forms of existence, and ecological patterns of online literature, propelling it rapidly into the era of digital-intelligent literature. China’s digital-intelligent online literature is a new form of online literature characterized by in-depth human-machine collaborative creation, with digital intelligence and industrialization as its inherent logic, algorithm-based evaluation, traffic attention, and mass consumption as its value orientations, multi-modal symbols for content construction, and a focus on global co-creation and shared benefits.At the content level, it is gradually shifting from “gratification-driven” storytelling to “national strength narratives” that consciously undertake cultural missions; creators refine the core of “Chinese stories” through thematic transformation and enhance value by constructing narratives that integrate cultural inheritance and innovation. At the production level, it has moved beyond simple human-machine collaboration to in-depth, interactive human-machine integration based on digital-intelligent technology platforms, using multi-modal expression to boost artistic appeal and stimulate the vitality and creativity of “national-wide co-creation”. At the industrial level, it drives cross-media integration with IP as the core, fully activating industrial momentum through models such as film, television, micro-short dramas, and contributing Chinese experience to the development of the global online literature industry value chain. At the communication level, the “online literature going global” model has undergone iterative upgrades, featuring multi-stakeholder collaboration and leveraging audio-visual channels to help China’s digital-intelligent online literature gain global popularity.The narrative methods, creative techniques, industrial development, and operation models of China’s digital-intelligent online literature have been widely adopted, integrated, and adapted overseas, forming a content production mechanism with high connectivity and cultural recognition. This evolution has transformed online literature from a single-form popular literary genre into a phenomenal global co-creation and shared literary landscape, ultimately becoming a powerful driver for the prosperity of human culture as a whole.

Dialogue on Civilization and Cultural Comparison

	22	Development Goals of China’s Rural Families, Differentiation in Maternal Practices, and the Construction of Child-Rearing Order
		GAN Ying
		Exploring the practical forms of rural motherhood serves as a crucial lens for understanding the integration of family structures during the modernization transition. Through field research, this study identifies family development goals as the core variable influencing differences in rural maternal practices. In the process of maternal practice, rural mothers adopt corresponding parenting strategies based on variations in family development goals. From the perspectives of both family development capacity and family development motivation, rural maternal practices can be categorized into four types: survival-oriented, striving-oriented, companionship-oriented, and quality-oriented. Among these, survival-oriented maternal practice sets “raising children to adulthood” as its parenting goal, adopting a phase-based involvement strategy; striving-oriented maternal practice aims for children’s achievement of primary urbanization, forming a guided participation strategy; companionship-oriented maternal practice focuses on cultivating moral integrity as its parenting objective, developing a moderate involvement approach; quality-oriented maternal practice targets the enhancement of children’s comprehensive quality, implementing an all-round participation strategy. These differences reflect the emergence of a development-oriented family model in Chinese society, yet significant developmental heterogeneity exists within it, leading to distinct maternal roles in parenting. Rural maternal practices do not follow a uniform path of modernity. Instead, they take on diverse forms due to variations in family development capacities and motivations, thereby giving rise to differentiated patterns of family upbringing.

	34	The Educational Anxiety and Coping Strategies of Western Middle-Class Parents
		SHAO Ying, WANG Xi
		Under the neoliberalism wave, competitive market-based rules have been introduced in education, such that competitiveness reinforces parents’ responsibility for education and creates educational anxiety. To responsibly contribute to the academic success of their children, middle-class parents act as “consumers” and “entrepreneurs”, choosing schools, investing in education and running businesses rationally. They also play the role of educational monitors, actively intervening in school and social education for the maximum benefit of their children. Besides, they have launched social movements of various scales to counter the impact of neoliberalism. Middle-class parents’ responses are informed by the neoliberal market logic of competitiveness, utilitarianism, risk management and self-responsibility. These actions merely take responsibility for the individual, failing to alleviate the class divide in students’ academic achievement and instead contributing to the legitimisation of the reproduction of educational inequality, further undermining the public nature of education. Drawing on Habermas’s concepts of “communicative rationality” and “deliberative democracy”, a more communally engaged parental action should shift towards “public responsibility”, which implies not only the full participation of middle-class parents in the negotiation of public affairs, but also a commitment to a broader “social ethic”, a deeper understanding of the social context and interests of others, as well as mutual respect and concern.

	47	2025 Annual Academic Report on China’s Cultural Industry
		ZHOU Jian-xin, QU Ting
		The 20th National Congress of the Communist Party of China and the Third and Fourth Plenary Sessions of the 20th CPC Central Committee have made important strategic arrangements for building a culturally strong country, prompting scholars in the field of cultural industries to conduct systematic and in-depth theoretical explorations centered on high-quality cultural development.In 2025, a total of 166 academic monographs and blue books on China’s cultural industry research were published, along with more than 2,100 academic papers. These studies focused on key topics such as XI Jin-ping Thought on Culture, new quality productive forces in culture, humanistic economics, building a culturally strong country, digital cultural industries, Chinese modernization, artificial intelligence empowerment, rural cultural revitalization, and the upgrading of cultural consumption.XI Jin-ping Thought on Culture provides a fundamental standpoint, value orientation, and methodological guidance for China’s cultural industry research, while studies on new quality productive forces in culture and humanistic economics together constitute the contemporary expression and innovative direction of the foundational theory of cultural industries.Building upon traditional themes such as new forms of cultural industries, cultural enterprises, cultural industry parks, and regional cultural industries, scholars in 2025 have paid increasing attention to emerging focal issues including artificial intelligence, culture-tourism integration, cultural “going global,” and national cultural parks.Cultural industry academic journals have formed a core publication matrix, and academic conferences have placed greater emphasis on the translation of theory into practice. At the same time, existing research also exhibits certain shortcomings, including a pronounced “head effect” among cultural enterprises, an “island effect” in cultural industry parks, and a relatively limited number of thematic studies in cultural industry reports.Looking ahead, China’s cultural industries should continue to strengthen theoretical innovation and system building, deepen research on new cultural industry formats and industrial integration, improve studies on national cultural spaces and regional cultural ecosystems, advance the development of open and shared cultural industry big data and think tank systems, thereby contributing intellectual support and academic wisdom to the construction of a culturally strong country.

	63	The Underlying Logic and Long-Term Mechanism for Digital Asset Development of Rural Cultural IP
		PAN Ai-ling, XIA Yu-rui
		The rural cultural IP refers to the aggregate content of cultural symbols and intellectual property that is deeply rooted in the unique cultural gene of rural areas, and developed through brand refinement and creative transformation. It embodies distinct recognizability, strong appeal, and significant commercial value. Under the impetus of the national cultural digitalization strategy, the development of rural cultural IP digital assets has increasingly become an important path for revitalizing local resources and achieving rural revitalization. As a new type of production factor, cultural data addresses the inherent shortcomings of traditional rural culture, such as its difficulty in monetization and limited dissemination, while digital assets further provide a value realization foundation featuring confirmable ownership, tradability, and reusability for rural cultural IP. The underlying logic of the deep synergy between humanistic and economic values contained in the humanistic economics theory provides theoretical guidance for the development of digital assets of rural cultural IP. The objective conditions including cultural resource digitalization, digital media technology application, emerging consumption trends, and industrial integration dynamics offer feasibility support for it. Based on the essential characteristics of digital assets, the key links of the ownership confirmation, valuation, circulation and transaction, and profit distribution of the rural cultural IP digital assets have been systematically constructed. However, current development faces challenges such as ambiguous ownership definition, lack of unified standards for quantifying implicit values, insufficient adaptability of transaction scenarios, and complexity in profit distribution. Accordingly, long-term mechanisms can be established in the following five aspects: building consensus on the value of rural cultural IP to jointly address challenges in digital asset development; advancing the digital asset transformation of rural cultural IP at an earlier stage to lay a solid foundation; improving matching mechanisms to solve the predicament of the connection between culture and technology; creating pioneering demonstration cases and promoting the synergy of latecomers; and cultivate a healthy ecosystem for rural cultural IP through sustained guidance. Through the above-mentioned long-term mechanisms, the obstacles in the development of rural cultural IP digital assets can be broken through, thereby exploring an innovative development path that integrates traditional cultural genes with the modern digital context for rural cultural construction and economic revitalization.

	74	How to Address Corporate Overcapacity in Enterprises through Data Factor Market Development: A Quasi-Natural Experiment Based on Data Trading Platforms
		SHI Zhen
		The development of a data factor market presents a crucial pathway to unlocking the productive potential of data. Particularly in contexts of widespread overcapacity, such market development can enhance resource allocation efficiency, avert redundant production and resource wastage, and thereby offer a more effective solution for mitigating corporate overcapacity. Accordingly, this study constructs a quasi-natural experiment, leveraging the establishment of regional data factor trading platforms as a policy shock, to investigate the mitigating effect of data factor market development on corporate overcapacity. The empirical findings reveal that the development of a data factor market significantly reduces the level of corporate overcapacity. This mitigating effect is more pronounced for non-state-owned, resource-based, and eastern-region enterprises. Further channel analysis indicates that the key mechanisms include alleviating information asymmetry, strengthening innovation impetus, and curbing inefficient investment. Moreover, the development of the data factor market, in synergy with technology transfer policies, forms a novel technology-data hybrid paradigm for capacity governance. This combined approach yields a more potent impact, better addressing the structural overcapacity that arises from fragmented production planning. These findings suggest a need to move beyond traditional policy frameworks. It is imperative to develop innovative, data-factor-based solutions and to fortify synergistic mechanisms with technology innovation policies, thereby more effectively addressing overcapacity and enhancing corporate productivity and quality.

	87	Cooperative Culture, Patient Capital, and Corporate Strategic Choices
		CHEN Xiao-shan
		Cooperative culture, serving as the core carrier of a company’s internal cohesion and external synergy, exerts a critical influence on the formulation and execution of corporate strategies. Meanwhile, patient capital, as a typical form of capital focused on long-term value creation, is increasingly recognized for its guiding role in corporate strategic decision-making. Based on panel data from A-share listed companies from 2010 to 2023, this study systematically examines the mechanism through which cooperative culture influences strategic choices and further reveals the mediating role of patient capital. The findings indicate that firms fostering a cooperative culture are more inclined to adopt aggressive strategies exemplified by exploration, innovation, and proactive advancement. Moreover, both equity-based and debt-based patient capital partially mediate the relationship between cooperative culture and strategic choice. Further analysis shows that this positive association between corporate culture and aggressive strategy is more pronounced in state-owned enterprises, high-tech firms, non-recessionary companies, and those with superior governance levels. To fully leverage the empowering effect of cooperative culture on corporate development, on one hand, enterprises should integrate the win-win cooperation ethos into their value system, strengthen cultural cohesion through cross-departmental collaboration and long-term incentive mechanisms, and highlight cooperative value in financing strategies to attract patient capital while implementing differentiated strategic management. On the other hand, policymakers need to refine institutional frameworks aimed at fostering a cooperative culture within enterprises, and guide firms to regularly disclose their related practices and outcomes. Furthermore, they should encourage financial institutions to innovate patient capital support tools, and implement differentiated regulatory and incentive policies.

	99	Algorithm Embedded in Political Security Governance: Risk Patterns and Regulatory Paths
		CHEN Dong-dong
		With the in-depth advancement of the “Digital China” strategy, big data algorithms, as a new type of power carrier, have been deeply embedded in the entire process of political security governance. Algorithms reshape the connotation and form of political security: the territory of political security expands from physical space to digital sovereignty space, the content of security deepens from regime security to cognitive security, the main participants in security expand from state-led to multi-stakeholder collaboration, and the form of security transforms from static defense to dynamic governance. Through operational mechanisms such as data-driven approaches, intelligent decision-making, and collaborative governance, algorithms empower political security governance with precise perception, scientific policy formulation, and multi-stakeholder co-governance, driving its transformation from traditional experience-driven to modern technology-enabled. However, algorithms also induce multiple political security risks: at the digital sovereignty level, algorithm hegemony erodes national digital sovereignty through technological monopoly and rule suppression; at the ideological level, algorithm manipulation triggers cognitive alienation and undermines the foundation of social consensus; at the level of social and political stability, issues such as algorithmic discrimination and abuse of rights intensify social contradictions; at the level of technological autonomy, algorithm black boxes and ethical disorder lead to governance failure and even technological backlash. To this end, it is imperative to construct a comprehensive governance system integrating institutional regulation, technological breakthroughs, ethical embedding, and multi-stakeholder collaboration, so as to accurately prevent and resolve political security risks in the algorithm era and build a solid barrier for national security in the digital age.

	111	Air-Ground Legal Interest Conflicts and Coordination in Low-Altitude Economy
		CHEN Zi-kun
		The low-altitude economy, as a national strategic emerging economic form, is rapidly developing in fields such as drone logistics and urban air mobility. However, the high overlap between low-altitude airspace and land surface space has also triggered complex air-ground legal interest conflicts, which are mainly manifested in three types: safety, economic, and resource conflicts. The safety legal conflicts include aircraft crashes, data surveillance infringements, and ground activities interfering with low-altitude flights. The economic legal conflicts manifest as negative externalities such as noise pollution and landscape damage, leading to the devaluation of ground assets. The resource legal conflicts revolve around the competition between low-altitude and ground activities for spatial use. The roots of air-ground legal interest conflicts lie in the unclear boundaries between airspace rights and spatial rights, as well as the fragmentation of regulatory objectives and responsibilities among air-ground regulatory authorities. To resolve air-ground legal interest conflicts, the value orientation of a “relative safety concept” should be established, abandoning unrealistic zero-risk pursuits and promoting the full utilization of low-altitude airspace resources on the premise of controllable risk. Specifically, first, in defining rights, the rigid unified fixed-height standard should be abandoned, and a flexible "effective occupancy standard" should be introduced, dynamically delineating rights boundaries based on land use and planning. Second, a cross-departmental air-ground coordination mechanism should be constructed, balancing airspace efficiency and ground rights protection through legislative coordination and institutional collaboration.

	121	The Return of “Materiality” in Digital Cinema: A Generative Existence
		ZHANG Xiao-hong, LI Jun-bao
		The deep integration of digital technology is driving a structural transformation in the “materiality” of cinema. Unlike traditional celluloid film, which relies on the physical substance of chemical emulsion and mechanical projection, digital cinema is grounded in binary code. Characterized by its editability, reproducibility, and interactivity, it dissolves traditional material boundaries while simultaneously giving rise to a new form of “materiality” that profoundly interweaves the virtual and the tangible. This new form pertains not only to the textural quality of the image surface but, more significantly, to a fundamental shift in its mode of existence: while rooted in algorithmic structures and dependent on material infrastructure such as servers and sensors, it is continuously activated, dynamically constructed, and gradually evolves into a “techno-cultural” complex within specific contexts of dissemination, interface interaction, and reception. Consequently, its essence can be understood as a “generative material existence” that unfolds in time, establishes itself through relations, and realizes itself in interaction. The “materiality” of digital cinema is not a simple replacement of traditional materiality; rather, it is an interwoven fusion arising from the mutual penetration and co-action of artistic expression, technological logic, and cultural practice. It urges the study of “materiality” to move beyond the static dichotomy of virtual versus tangible or material versus informational, and instead focus on the constitutive, processual, and relational dimensions of the “thing” within the digital media environment, providing a crucial perspective and a necessary theoretical framework for grasping the complex interplay between art and technology in the digital age.

	131	Green Elements: African Consciousness and Visual Shaping of Chinese Fashion Creativity
		QI Ji
		Green transformation is an important path for the apparel industry to reduce textile pollution and build a healthy apparel practice ecology and body aesthetics. China’s textile and apparel industry is developing rapidly and has obvious advantages, generating huge output value every year, but it is urgent to reduce textile pollution, promote green transformation, and establish a new business model of ecological civilization of apparel. Incorporating African consciousness that respects nature and absorbing African green elements in the transformation can not only expand the ecological aesthetic space of Chinese apparel, but also promote the expression of a community of human destiny with multicultural respect at a deep level. The metaphorical arrangement of patterns, the symbolic expression of symbols, and the ecological concept of materials in the African clothing representation system contain a philosophy of life that respects the laws of nature and promotes ecological ethics. African consciousness and its green elements are integrated into the visual shaping process of Chinese clothing. It is a process of cross-border and in-depth integration of clothing culture. The core strengthens the subject consciousness and cultural consciousness, and translates African green elements locally. Create an ecological clothing brand, explore the African consumer market, and promote green consumption to become the inherent demand of the main body of clothing, and become the mainstream lifestyle and social fashion of people, to achieve the goal of building an ecological civilization society with “high harmony” between man and nature.

	141	Criticism on the “Incorporation of Colloquial Language into Poetry” and the Intellectual Construction of “Song-Style Poetry” in Southern Song Poetics
		WANG Zi-han
		Having established the poetic legitimacy of the Incorporation of Colloquial Language into Poetry, literati of the Southern Song Dynasty further integrated it into a linguistic knowledge element of the “Song-style poetry” paradigm. On one hand, they extracted colloquial expressions with textual grounding by drawing on pre-generational classics, histories, Buddhist texts, and poetic works, thereby establishing the poetic notion that colloquial language could enter poetry. On the other hand, poetic theorists elaborated on the poetic principle that colloquialisms required refinement and fusion to achieve innovative expression, incorporating contemporary popular colloquialisms without textual origins into the poetic corpus. These explorations enabled Southern Song literati to widely embrace the practice of incorporating colloquial language into poetry and establish it as a shared poetic knowledge. Building on this, poetic theorists conducted poetic criticism centered on the “use of colloquial language”——exploring poetic writing methods and evaluating poetic works through this practice, while constructing a canonical poetic lineage of “colloquial language users” from DU Fu and the Su School literati to LU You and YANG Wan-li. The dissemination of this criticism not only prompted Southern Song literati to expand the Song poetic connotation of “turning vulgarity into elegance” to include diction and wording but also fostered a prevalent perception among late imperial poets that “Song poetry favors colloquial language”, ultimately elevating the Incorporation of Colloquial Language into Poetry into a knowledge component of Song-style poetry. The integration and convergence of this practice with Song-style poetry provide a knowledge-historical perspective for contemporary scholars to examine the evolution of late imperial poetics.

	151	The Value of Poetry Research of WANG Yang-ming’s Newly Published Poem “Night Stay in Yunchu Cave, Yusi Mountain: Composed in the Style of Li Qianshi”
		PAN Cheng-yu
		The poem “Night Stay in Yunchu Cave, Yusi Mountain: Composed in the Style of Li Qianshi” by WANG Yang-ming, auctioned from Japan in 2025, is not found in various “Complete Works of Wang Yangming” from ancient to modern times in terms of poetic titles. It was created on June 15th, 1520, in the 15th year of the Ming Dynasty’s Zhengde era, as a response to the rhythm of his colleague and subordinate Li Su. The “Once Again following Li Su’s Poetry” was written at the same time. The re-emergence of this poem can help correct the chronological error in WANG Yang-ming’s poetry research community regarding “Once Again following Li Su’s poetry”. In terms of its main text, although it was not included in the “Complete Works of Wang Wencheng Gong” carved by Xie Tingjie in the sixth year of the Longqing reign (1572), it was included in the “Longqing Linjiang Prefecture Annals” and various local chronicles of later generations. However, the poetic title was lost and the main text was modified more than once, causing some damage to the original poetic meaning. By examining the poem “Night Stay in Yunchu Cave, Yusi Mountain: Composed in the Style of Li Qianshi” together with several poems on the theme of dreams from the same year, it can be found that from mid-June to the end of August in the fifteenth year of the Ming Zhengde reign, WANG Yang-ming’s spiritual world experienced a turning point from sadness, disillusionment to righteous indignation. Eventually, he let go of the troubles of reality and devoted himself fully to his study of the world’s conscience. Focusing on his trip to Yusi Mountain, WANG Yang-ming composed five poems within one or two days, including “Night Stay in Yunchu Cave, Yusi Mountain: Composed in the Style of Li Qianshi”. These poems are in various styles, and it is not difficult to speculate on the abundance of works by other people in the same industry. Yusi Mountain Singing and Harmony is one of the examples of WANG Yang-ming’s lifelong practice of not giving up his “calligraphy”, which has certain indica
