	6	On Confucianism and Japan’s Modern Ideology with Nishi Shin’ichirō as an Example
		LIU Yue-bing
		How to promote the study of Japan’s modern Confucianism is a challenge facing the researchers of Japan’s modern Confucian development and those of Japan’s modern intellectual history. The Chinese scholars such as Zhu Qianzhi, Wang Jiahua, Yan Shaodang have made significant contribution in this field. To make more discussions on the basis of current studies, it is important to integrate Confucianism with the development of Japan’s modern ideology. We need not only to focus on the impact of Confucianism upon Japanese modernization, but also to study the ideologists who have deep insight into both western modern ideology and Confucianism, and even belong or incline to Confucianism in terms of ideological feature. Only those who blend Confucianism with modern ideology while not ignoring its essence can be hailed as typical contemporary Japanese Confucian?scholars. Nishi Shin’ichirō is just such an ideologist. His experience and ideological development, and especially the way of incorporating western thought into his argument on the characteristics of Japanese Confucian studies, and in particular his interpretation of the relationship between Neo-Confucianism of Song Dynasty and Kant's?philosophy, is significant and inspirational for us to think about different characteristics of Confucian studies and even the ideological development in modern China and Japan .

	14	Ishida Baigan’s Syncretism of Three Religions
		Han Li-hong
		During the Edo period, Ishida Baigan, the founder of “Sekimon Shingaku”, advocated the syncretism of Shinto, Confucianism, and Buddhism to educate the general populace. He believed the loyalty ethics of Confucianism, the mercy ethics of Buddhism, and the integrity ethics of theology share the common essence. They are all essential to the cultivation of mind. Based on the union of the three religions, he advocated the practice of “integrity” and “frugality” to seek “conscience”, from which he developed “Business Ethics” for modern Japanese businessmen, and then developed it into “Sekimon Shingaku”. His ideas spread first among business people and then among the majority of peasants and warriors. It is generally agreed by academics that Ishida Baigan’s thought has profound influence on the development of modern Japan’s intellectual, economic, and educational history.

	20	The Presupposition behind the Proto-Deconstructive Critique of Intentional Historicity: The Conflation of Intrasubjective and Intersubjective Idealities
		Burt c. Hopkins
		Jacques Derrida focuses on opposing of Husserl’s concept of intentional history to empirical history. He characterizes this account of the historicity belonging to the ideality of ideal meaning, and explores the opposition of ideality and histority by exploring the meaning of historicity and historicity as meaning. It is in the awakening of the historicity of meaning and the meaning of its very historicity, Derrida’s opposition of the ideality language and the empiricality language yields his concept of “transcendental language”, and in the infinite telos, he accounts the deferral of ideality as manifest. Derrida attributes the reason of impossibility of ideality to apprehending the “alterity”of its origin, he doesn’t understand Husserls twofold account of the problem of the origin of ideality: the objectivity of an intersubjective tradition and the objectivity of ideal object’s ontic-meaning, which lead to misunderstanding to Husserl. It is in the misunderstanding that the problem of origin of ideality is integrated into the problem of origin of the objectivity of intersubjective tradition which leads to Derrida’s collapse.

	24	The Historical Orientation of Confucianism and its Fundamental Role in “an Era of Confucianism Application”
		JI Dou-yong
		After experiencing the “ the era of establishment”,“the era of worship”, and “the era of condemnation”, the Confucian study is stepping into a fourth phase, “the era of application”. This is a new era after the attitude toward Confucianism is increasingly defined in the mainstream ideology since China’s reform and opening up. The general attitude toward Confucianism has shifted from “desertion” and “suspicion” to “selective application” —that is, we seek to absorb the essence of traditional Confucian culture and bring it up to date. In “the era of application”, Confucianism ought to be properly oriented. The Confucian culture is the core of Chinese traditional cultural system, but cultures of different nationalities and geographic backgrounds have always been blending and co-existing with one another in China. The Confucian culture played a positive role in promoting Chinese ancient civilization to set a pace for the world, but it was also in some way to blame for the backwardness in modern China. The essence of the Confucian culture constitutes the meme and content of contemporary Chinese Marxism, but its dross should be recognized and criticized. For Confucianism, we need to discard its dross and absorb its essence and apply it properly to make it play a fundamental role in this “era of application”.

	31	Collaborative Innovation from the Perspective of Theory of Communicative Action
		TAN Zhi-min
		Collaborative innovation focuses on the collaborative process of different stakeholders. It requires a framework in which the stakeholders share some activities and work together to overcome difficulties. Being a knowledge production process, collaboration first means every participant gets involved on a voluntary basis. Being willing to participate in collaborative innovation means people express a good will to conform to the norms and standards. In the process of collaboration, people communicate through linguistic signs, which is actually an information communication process. The accuracy and authenticity of information communication is of significant importance to efficient achievement of the goals. In order to ensure the authenticity of the communication, a common framework is needed to regulate all the parties involved, which makes it a reason to formulate appropriate rules and regulations.

	45	Causality Research on Socio-economic Status and Health Inequality
		GAO Xing-min, XU Jin-hong
		The research on relationship between socio-economic status（SES）and health is fairly mature abroad, but it is still a weak area in domestic literature. Based on the perspective of social causation theory, this paper uses cross-sectional data of CHNS in 2011 to make a theoretical analysis of the relationship between SES and health through mathematical statistics and empirical analysis. The findings are as follow: the national health inequality indeed exists; there are significant positive correlations between health and socio-economic status; the better-educated have better health; people with higher family annual net income have better health. The nonlinear causal relation between health and socio-economic status shows that there exists an “inverted U” rather may no “S” relationship between income and health and that there may no “inverted U” or “S” relationship between education and health. The paper therefore suggests promoting fair income distribution and developing education to reduce health inequality.

	54	The Impact of Interest Rate Marketization Reform on Financial Constraints of China’s Enterprises from the Perspective of Credit Management
		LIANG Tao
		Large quantities of empirical researches prove the interest rate marketization helps to ease financial constraints on enterprises. However, the interest rate marketization reform over the past twenty years has not effectively dealt with the financing difficulties and the high financing cost for enterprises. This paper uses the model of supply and demand to analyze the impact of interest rate marketization reform on financial constraints of enterprises. The findings indicate when keeping a ceiling only on deposit rate with the loan rate open the central bank effectively controlled the excess liquidity and intensified financial constraints with tough lending standards. The current measure of giving up credit planning to ease the financial constraints has not achieved obvious effect, and it may even aggravate the volatility of the credit market. This paper therefore suggests promoting the deposit rate marketization reform, increasing the supply of credit funds to reduce loans rate, and changing banks’ preference for state-owned enterprises to ease the financial constraints for enterprises.

	62	Decoupling Assessment from Administration: the Direction of China’s Environmental Impact Appraisal System
		ZHOU Ke, WANG Xiao-juan
		“Environmental Impact Assessment Law (EIA)” issued in 2003 has been playing an important role ever since, but there is no denying that it has many drawbacks. Most notably, environmental assessment agencies are affiliated with environmental administrative departments. The impact appraisal reports and conclusions made by the former are subject to the examination and approval of the latter. This self-assessment mechanism is a bottleneck that hinders the function of the environmental impact appraisal system. Throughout different environmental impact appraisal systems in the world, the jobs of making reports, drawing conclusions, and giving approval are independent of one another and involve broad-based participation. Therefore, we should perfect specialist appraisal institutions, establish independent advisory councils on the environment, reform the environmental approval mechanism, increase public participation, and “decouple the environmental assessment agencies from environmental administrative departments ” and not the reverse, and all that makes our direction and path choice in the reform the environmental impact appraisal system.

	68	Balance Between Transparent Judiciary and Privacy Protection in Judicial Reform
		LI Shuang
		The value of the privacy right lies in keeping private life, private domain and personal information away from the public. And the privacy right cannot be guaranteed without personal secrecy. However,the right to know requires transparent judiciary. Otherwise, we cannot have access to information, let alone supervise judicial justice. Privacy right, in this view, collides with transparent judiciary. At present, it is not appropriate to guarantee privacy right at constitutional level. It is more reasonable to protect it in the field of private law. To balance the right to know and the privacy right, we need not only further perfect the institutional design based on transparent judiciary, but also take proper procedures and follow the principle of proportion.

	74	The Tension and Balance between Government Innovation and Legal Administration
		GU Zhi-jun, CHEN Ke-lin
		On theoretical and practical level, there exists inherent tension between government innovation and legal administration, manifested as the contradiction between innovations for development and the rule of law for stability. Different ways to know government innovation leads to different manifestation of the“innovation-rule of law”tension. Innovation and observation of law both have positive effects and negative effects. The superimposed combination of different effects constitutes basic constraints to analyze “innovation-rule of law”tension. To address the issue, we can take following measures: we can promote legalization of vertical inter-government relations through strengthening the rule of law; we can strengthen top-level design and make proper amendments in reform; we have to maintain the rule of law and carry out government innovation at local level under the framework of law; we also need to regulate innovation, seeking a balance between government innovation and legal administration in a legal, reasonable, and proper way.

	80	Holistic Community: on the Applicability of China’s Urban Community Governance
		YIN Hao, CHEN Wei-dong
		In the context of state governance, which governance pattern enables the administration and power to reach the grass-root level, and promote the unification of self-governance system at community level This question is worthy to be discussed on theoretical and practical level. After reviewing governance theories, this paper, on the basis of self-organizing and holistic governance theories, seeks to outline an effective governance structure for Chinese urban communities and put forward a holistic community analysis model with the purpose of offering some reference for China’s urban community governance structure and relevant theories

	86	Influence Factors for Software Privacy in China: an Integrated Model Analysis Framework
		LIN Xu-dong, CHENG Lin
		Based on the theory of planned behavior (TPB) and ethics theory, this paper discusses the factors such as price of legitimate software and value-added services. Taking into account society at large, legitimate software enterprises, and individuals, the paper probes into the factors for software privacy in China from an integrated perspective. We use the structural equation model (SEM) for causal analysis. The result shows the cultural value of “sharing” and perceived usefulness has significant positive impact on the attitude of China’s software users toward piracy, and may trigger privacy intention. However, the factors as social morality, law, the price of legitimate software, and value-added services are only weakly related to privacy intention. Finally, in view of the research finding, the paper suggests some countermeasures against software piracy.

	93	On People’s Living Standard from the Perspective of Tourism Engel Coefficient
		LIU Qing-qing, YE Quan-liang
		Through sorting out the logical relationship among Engel coefficient, tourism Engel coefficient, and general well-being, this paper performs statistical test among the three from the time and space dimension. The finding shows the consumption structure is undergoing tremendous changes and people are switching from material consumption to spiritual consumption. In terms of living standard, people are moving from a well-to-do society toward affluence. Engel coefficient is no longer a reliable indicator for living standard, nor is happiness index a feasible measurement for it. Tourism Engel coefficient, however, is a more appropriate indicator for living standard. In view of this, the paper suggests possible ways for China to make the transition from Engel coefficient to tourism Engel coefficient in the measurement of people’s living level.

		HUA Jian
		Against the background of mobile Internet, cultural industry is progressing into a new phase of integration and innovation. Great emphasis should be placed on the following aspects: updating the value chain and supply chain of cultural industry to accumulate more excellent resources; expanding cultural services to provide more cultural value for related industries such as manufacturing industry; promoting cooperation between cultural industry and financial sectors to build new cultural industry clusters; developing service platforms to upgrade the cultural industry parks.

	107	Innovative Integration: on the Fusion of Cultural Industry and Technology
		LI Yan, HU Hong-bing
		Cultural industry and technology always go hand in hand. Modern technology characteristic of “digitalization” and “networking” deconstructs the simple format between replication technology and cultural production, and completely fuses together the content carrier, transmission, acceptance and re-innovation. It brings to an end time-space separation among creation, content replication, acceptance, and consumption, and thus gives rise to new cultural service platforms supported by digital technology and networking. Currently, the fusion of cultural industry with technology is essentially an innovative way for humans to integrate modern technology with culture and economy in the digital and network era. To understand the innovative integration between modern technology and culture rather than being confined to only the specific features of modern technology and the characteristics of new cultural industry, we need to review the cultural products from a dynamic perspective, taking into account its production, carrier, transmission, and consumption, etc.

	113	Life Aesthetics of Jiangnan Scholars in the Late Ming and Early Qing Dynasties
		ZHAO Hong-tao
		The scholars in ancient China were greatly influenced by Confucianism and Taoism. Confucianism-oriented life aesthetics was generally reflected in daily life, while Taoism-oriented life aesthetics was characteristic of separation from secular life to realize individuality. These two major life aesthetics altered or replaced each other in the long history of China. The life style of Jiangnan scholars in the late Ming and early Qing Dynasties was neither Confucian nor Taoist, and not even the reconciliation of the two. It was a new way of life. On one hand, Jiangnan scholars seemed to be aloof and detached from mundane affairs. On the other hand, they were enchanted by secular life and indulged in sensual pleasure. Their aesthetic attitude toward life has profound impact upon literati as well as the general public in modern times.

It followed Chunqiu study in the Central Plain without much theoretical innovation, and yet started brand new hermeneutics of Chunqiu studies. The content of Guangdong Chunqiu study has profound impact upon “Jiujiang School”, and its significance of academic history becomes the theoretic basis for “Jiujiang School” to make a transition in Chunqiu study in modern times.

	125	Relationship Between Government and Market in China（1978-2015）
		YANG Guang-fei, ZHAO Chao
		Since 1978, China has experienced great changes in social economic development. Under the leadership of government, “the market” as an important resource allocation has embedded into China's economic and social fields. This is a gradual development different from many western countries. Here comes the question: how does the government interact with the market or vice versa? Based on key policy documents since opening up and reform, we review the relationship between the government and the market, finding that the relationship between the two has shifted from the pattern of “strong government, weak market” to “strong government, strong market”. In the context of deepening the reform, China needs to further define the boundary between the government and market, optimize the “double strong”pattern, and promote the coordinated social economic development.

	132	From Cooperation to Marketization: an Empirical Study on the Changes in Rural Funeral Service
		HU Die-quan
		Driven by market economy, the funeral service in Chinese rural areas has shifted from the cooperation among clansmen, neighbors, friends and relatives in “the differential mode of association” in traditional society to an instant transaction with money as the medium. This transition can be attributed to the factors as the transformation from the acquaintance society to the semi-acquaintance society, decline in mutual assistance, and economic rationality dominating social values. Taking Shicun village in Hunan Province as a case, the paper analyzes the transformation process from cooperation to marketization of rural funeral service. During the transition, the traditional rural cultural norms are losing their force, public living space is diminishing, simple rural life is plagued by utilitarianism, and money is playing an increasingly important role in interpersonal relationship.

	139	Hong Kong’s National Identity Crisis: from “Other” to “Pseudo-subject”
		YANG Han-xu, XU Hai-bo
		British colonists initially brought the colonial logic of “ego” and “other” into Hong Kong which regarded “Chinese ( including Hong Kong people)” as “other”,and has thus established a “pseudo-subject” consciousness characteristic of colonialism. “Pseudo-subject” consciousness is the root cause of Hong Kong’s national identity crisis. After the reunification, due to the post-colonial cultural infiltration, the symptom, instead of perishing, has become more serious. According to the theory of Lacanian psychoanalysis, Hong Kong people must use reflective “self” to dissolve “pseudo-subject” so as to lift themselves out of the national identity crisis. At operational level, we should promote Hong Kong’s (China’s) traditional culture of inclusiveness to guard against homogenization (westernization) of cultures and values, and take into our own hands the right to write the complete history of Hong Kong (and not just the colonial history).

		CHEN Zhen-wang
		Based on central plain culture and open to foreign cultures, Dunhuang patterns are timeless and boundless. In the long history of development, they represent the spirit of integration and inclusiveness. Focusing on the evolution of Dunhuang patterns and the cultural exchange of the Sui and Tang Dynasties, this paper discusses the historical context of the Dunhuang patterns, elaborates on their evolution and innovation, analyzes the collision and integration of different cultures during the cultural fusion between the south and the north in the Sui and Tang Dynasties, and interprets the integration of Duanghuang patterns with foreign cultures and the evolution of the patterns during Tubo occupation with curling grass patterns, Lianzhu grain, and grape pomegranate patterns as examples. The discussion is aimed to study the communication and integration of Dunhuang patterns with exotic cultures, the external and internal factors contributing to the unique artistic style of Sui and Tang Dynasties, thereby exploring the aesthetic significance and spiritual core of Dunhuang patterns of Sui and Tang Dynasties from a historical perspective.

	151	On the City Clusters in Pearl River Delta in Ming and Qing Dynasties and “the Maritime Silk Road” in the Western Coast of Guangdong
		HUANG Bin
		Coastal cities and towns are linked by “the Maritime Silk Road” and constitute a geographic network. During Ming and Qing Dynasties, one of the distinctive features of the port cities and towns along “the Maritime Silk Road” in the western coast of Guangdong was that they constituted and were accepted by the unified regional market system with the city clusters in the Pearl River Delta as the center. Many places in this area did not belong to Pearl River Valley and some rivers run into the sea on their own, but that did not change the economic integrity of this region and the Pearl River Delta. It shows during the Ming and Qing Dynasties the city clusters in the Pearl River Delta played a significant role in the regional market system along China’s “Maritime Silk Road”, which provides a historical reference to understanding the important role of current city clusters of that region in China’s regional market system along “the Maritime Silk Road”.

	156	Will Norway Learn from China to Improve Education Quality?
		Arild Tjeldvoll
		In foreign people’s eyes, Norway’s life quality ranks first in the world, especially its strong economy, generous state welfare, and free higher education accessible to everybody. In recent years, however, cracks start to appear in its seemly perfect image, especially when it comes to education quality. The main reason is that Norway changed its curriculum and learned from American education after WWII. In recent forty years, education quality has been declining and teachers’ social status has been getting worse. The current educational strategy of the government is to strengthen the training of the teachers of weak academic ability, and yet it seemingly does not work. To address this issue, this paper suggests learning from China to construct a learning culture. In China’s learning culture, parents and grandparents are all concerned about giving their children good education, and teaching as a profession is respected. This learning culture in East Asia can be traced back to the great Chinese philosopher Confucius.
