6 From Presupposition to Inner Transcendence:The Paradigm Change and Diverse Aspects of “Modernity” in Overseas Chinese Literary Studies
HAN Han
“Modernity”is a key concept in overseas Chinese literary studies and the common theoretical pursuit of several generations of scholars.Its derivative concepts of literary modernity and cultural modernity lay a foundation for the representative research paradigm of overseas Chinese literary studies.It was first proposed in the study of May 4th Movement and Weber's theory of modernity,which coincided with the Cold War,therefore has a clear political presupposition.Later,due to the academic practice of Jaroslav Prusek and the Xia brothers (XIA Zhi-qing and XIA JI'an),“modernity”was introduced into Chinese literary studies,and the study of modern Chinese literature initiated by the Xia brothers was the mainstream.And “obsession with China”is an important reflection of Chih-tsing Hisa's interpretation of modernity.In the 1980s,the “enlightenment/decadent modernity”proposed by LI Ou-fan and the “self-discovering modernity”proposed by Der-wei WANG assume the role of inheriting the past and ushering in the future in the overseas Chinese literary studies.They systematically present modernity-related discussions in overseas Chinese literary studies,and advance the multiple interpretation of “modernity”,and the concept of “modernity”also shows the transition to “cultural modernity”due to its internal transcendence.

14 Aesthetic Dimension and Poetic Approach of Overseas Chinese Scholars in the Study of Modern Chinese Literature
SU Wen-jian
Aesthetics is essential to the establishment and development of the discipline of overseas Chinese modern literature.With the development of the discipline,its research paradigm shows the transition from highlighting literariness/aestheticism from de-political standpoint of view,to culture-oriented approaches with little and even no attention to literariness/aestheticism,and then to much attention given to literariness/aesthetics,history and modernity and the re-examination of their relations in the post-theory era.Taking “decadence”as an important starting point,overseas Chinese scholars consciously projected the western aesthetic modernity theory into the study of modernist novels in the 1930s and 1940s,and conducted a unique cultural observation of the aesthetic modernity of modern Chinese literature.They are cautious about the applicability of western critical theories,and show a cognition trend that is different from the traditional historical and aesthetic view of literature of Chinese mainland.The overseas study of Chinese modern literature and the observation of aesthetic modernity of Chinese modern literature from the perspective of western critical theory are interrelated.This is of great significance to promoting the formation and construction of trans-regional “Chinese modern poetics”.

23 From Genre Studies to Cultural Politics:The Paradigm Construction and Discourse Transition of Overseas Chinese's Discussion about “Chinese Lyrical Tradition”
SHEN Yi-fan
In the discussion about the overseas Chinese's study of “Chinese lyric tradition”,researchers often confuse two key concepts—“lyric tradition”and the study of “lyric tradition”.The former is a judgment and conclusion of Chinese literary history;the latter is a set of knowledge discourse,cognitive framework and poetic thinking mode around this judgment and conclusion.The change from “lyric tradition”to the study of “lyric tradition”has contributed to the rise of the so-called “constructivism”in the study of Chinese lyric tradition in recent years.From the perspective of constructivism,the academic genealogy of study of lyrical tradition established by Shih-hsiang Chen,Yu-kung Kao and then David Der-wei Wang reveals the paradigm shift from genre studies to cultural politics.The two resulting different paradigms of modernity illustrate the trajectory of the discourse of lyric tradition evolving from internal study to external study,and from defending aesthetic autonomy to ideology,providing reference and inspiration for rethinking the twists and turns and different paths for the changes in modern Chinese literary theory.

32 Social Risks of the Dynamic Adjustment of “Double First-class”:Generating Mechanism,Characteristics and Countermeasures
WANG Yong-cheng, HU Sheng-quan
Public policies are formulated in an environment of high risks and uncertainty.Whether they trigger public antagonism or even social risks depends on the public's understanding of the government's public decision-making process and the extent to which public decision-making responds to public expectations against social context.The adjustment of the construction scope of “double first-class”,a major public educational decision made by the government,is related to the redistribution of major social interests,involving many possible risks.The conflicts and disputes caused by improper decision-making may cause risks to social stability.The potential risks have following characteristics:they have wide influence and high sensitivity;they attract wide public attention and expectation;they are very complicated and hard to balance;they are highly risky and can trigger massive ripple effects.To guard against possible risks,in the adjustment of the scope of “double first-class”construction.we should take following measures:we should implement a risk assessment mechanism for major decisions on social stability and anticipate risks in advance;we should increase transparency in information,guide social expectation in an appropriate way,and increase interaction with public opinion;we should conduct investigation in a rule-by-law way,prescribe rules,and increase transparency and credibility;we should expand public participation in the adjustment decision-making process,take into account the demands and interests of all parties to make rules completely legitimate;we should effectively improve the implementation methods so that the list of the top universities can be dynamically adjusted for a healthy competition.

42 The Three Logics of Urban Renewal in China:Dimensions of Value,Internal Tension and Strategic Choice
LI Li-wen
The logic of people's livelihood,capital logic and power logic dominate the physical form and social pattern of the urban renewal in China.The logic of people's livelihood is a superficial social expression,reflecting the perception competition on people-oriented principle and the principle of multiple participation.Its primary goal is to achieve comfort and happiness,and its core value is sense of accomplishment and satisfaction.The capital logic is middle-level capital operation,reflecting the profit competition on the principle of survival of the fittest.Its primary goal is to boost efficiency and income,and its core value is commercialization and assimilation.The power logic is the policy intervention at the bottom,reflecting the personnel competition when new requirements are added at every level in the implementation of rules and regulations and promotion is based on the measure of performances.Its primary goal is to boost economic growth and maintain social order,and its core value is growth rate and beautification degree.There exist a strong tension among the three logics.Between the people's livelihood logic and the capital logic exists deviation tension between instrument and purpose,between the people's livelihood logic and the power logic exists tension between demand and supply,and between the power logic and the capital logic exists performance tension between public sectors and private sectors.The internal tension among the three logics can be balanced and redressed to a certain extent through precise updating,participatory updating and inclusive updating.

54 On the Efficiency of Public Cultural Service Supply in Western Rural Areas from the Perspective of Convergence
LI Shao-hui, HAN Hui
The period of the 13th Five-Year Plan is essential to promoting rural revitalization.The analysis of the supply efficiency of public cultural service in western rural areas is conducive to advancing the effective allocation of public cultural service resources in those regions and pushing forward the overall development of modern public cultural service.Taking the total-factor productivity (TFP) in the Malmquist index model as the measurement index,the paper analyzes the differences and convergence of the supply efficiency of public cultural services in western rural areas from 2007 to 2018 with comprehensive application of convergence and convergence test methods.The findings are as follows:the efficiency of public cultural service supply in western rural areas still shows negative growth,and the improvement of technical efficiency is the principal factor for the change in current supply efficiency;The gap between the public cultural service supply efficiency in the whole western rural areas has not been narrowed,the absolute gap still exists;However,after introducing variables such as the level of economic development,the gap in efficiency of public cultural service supply in different regions shows a significant trend of narrowing.In addition,the convergence rate of the rural public cultural service supply efficiency in the western two regions is also different,and the factors that affect the convergence have significant spatial differences.in the future,the improvement of the supply efficiency of public cultural services in western rural areas requires reasonable adjustment of the allocation structure and scale of resource factors according to regional characteristics,closer integration of public cultural services and digital culture,and strategies for public cultural services in accordance with local conditions.

64 Regional Differences in Operation Efficiency of Provincial Museums in China:Trend,Reasons,and Implications
HU Hui-yuan
The museum is an important part of regional public cultural service system.By introducing the Balanced Scorecard theory (BSC) to construct a three-stage DEA expansion model,our research avoids problems such as insufficient basis for index selection and no consideration of the impact of external environment when only DEA is used.We use the cross-sectional data in 2017 to measure the service efficiency of provincial museums in China and compare their differences.Our findings are as follows:at national level,most regional museums still increase in the returns to scale,but their operation efficiency is generally low due to small scale;at regional level,museums show imbalance with the operation efficiency typical decreasing from east to west.Apart from internal factors such as management and scale,external factors such as economic development,government support,higher education,degree of fiscal decentralization and fiscal expenditure preference may also impact regional differences in service efficiency of provincial museums in China.From the perspective of efficiency,currently the government should change from “fiscal subsidies”to “policy guidance”in the governance of museums,namely,to appropriately reduce financial subsidies and introduce loose policies to guide museums to improve management and ability for self-development.

72 The Impact of Sharing Economy on the Conversion of Old Economic Drivers into New Ones:Driving Mechanism and Influence Mechanism
GUO Ji-tao, LIANG Shuang
In the context of slowing economic growth,it is urgent to seek new drivers for Chinese economy to accelerate the conversion of old drivers into new ones.Sharing economy,a new type of economy and a leader in a new round of information revolution and industrial transformation,plays an important role in this process.Based on the provincial panel data of China from 2004 to 2018,this paper conducts an empirical discussion on the mechanism of sharing economy's impact on the conversion of old economic drivers into new ones and its driving path.The findings show that sharing economy,a new economic driver,can directly promote the conversion of old drivers into new ones.Scientific and technological innovation capacity,green development and high-quality development of real economy are three important driving mechanisms for turning old economic drivers into new ones,and sharing economy has profound impact on all of them.Specifically,in terms of scientific and technological innovation,sharing economy plays a positive regulatory role in eastern China and a negative role in central and western China.In terms of quality of development,sharing economy has improved resource allocation and promoted the development of emerging consumption patterns,positively regulating the driving effect of the development quality of real economy on the conversion of old driver into new ones,and this regulatory effect is more obvious in the central and eastern regions.In terms of development model,the expansion of sharing economy has a dilution effect,which reduces the effect of green development for the conversion of old drivers into new ones.

83 Driving Factors and Coordination Mechanism for the Development of Competitive Edge of Chinese High-end Manufacturing Enterprises
LUN Rui
In recent years,China's high-end manufacturing enterprises have become increasingly competitive.In-depth investigation into the reasons behind this trend will not only help promote this trend,but also provide benchmarks and guidelines for the development of other types of enterprises.Based on the panel data of 266 listed high-end manufacturing companies in China from 2009 to 2018,this paper constructs a dynamic panel sys-GMM model to measure and verify the driving factors and action mechanism for the competitive edge of high-end manufacturing enterprises.The results show that innovation is the first driving force for developing the competitive edge of high-end manufacturing enterprises,and the process of enhancing the competitive edge in high-end manufacturing enterprises is positively impacted by division and collaboration (reflecting the relations of industrial chains),and informationization ( reflecting relations of industries),but the regulatory effect of competition pressure(reflecting adversary relationship among competitors),and government preference (reflecting relations between government and enterprises) is not verified.Further analysis shows that there is a synergic relationship between two environmental factors—division &collaboration and informatization.Therefore,we should continue to vigorously promote innovation-driven development of high-end manufacturing enterprises,build alliances for industrial chain research and development,fully stimulate the coupling effect between modern information technology and high-end manufacturing industries in China,and push high-end manufacturing enterprises to build dynamic competitive edge in their interaction with complex environmental factors.

95 A Package Discussion on the Suspension of Chinese Aggravated Crime
CHEN Hong-bing
There may be suspension of crime in aggravated offenses.The completion of basic offenses with basis results without aggravated results (or elements),suspension of basic offenses after aggregated results (or elements) occur,and the suspension of the aggravated result (or element) and the basic crime result at the same time may constitute the suspension of the aggravated crime.If the offender takes the initiative to eliminate danger and avoid (serious) real harm after creating a dangerous scenario,he actually suspends the dangerous crime.He should be exempted or mitigated from penalty on the basis of basic criminal law of dangerous crime.In the case of intentional consequential aggravated crime,there may be three kinds of suspension of aggregated crime:suspension of aggravated result,suspension of basic crime result,and simultaneous suspension of aggravated result and basic crime result.In the case of aggravated consequential offense of negligence,there may be suspension of aggravated crime whose result is aggravated but the result of basic crime is suspended.In the case of joint offense,there are usually three kinds of suspension of aggregated crime.In the case of the aggravated crimes related to the amount of property,victim,location and means of crime,if the offender voluntarily gives up a substantial amount of property,a specific victim,a specific location,or a specific means of crime,his behavior may be regarded as the suspension of the aggravated crime.In addition,serious offenses may also be suspended.When it comes to aggregated crime of consequence,aggregated crime of function (status),aggregated crime of multiple people (times),there is only the question of whether the charged are convicted or not,and thus there is no suspension of crime in this case.The suspension of aggravated crime should be exempted or mitigated from penalty according to the provisions of suspension of crime.In view of our country's heavy legal penalty,we should also consider mitigating penalty if the result of aggravated crime occurs but the result of basic crime is suspended.If the offender is convicted of an accomplished felony at the same time,we need to refer to the result of the mitigated punishment and give him a heavier penalty.

105 Integration of Migrant Seniors into the City in the Context of Family Migration
PENG Da-song
Based on the survey of Shenzhen and Guiyang,this paper uses factor analysis,OLS model and quantile regression model to analyze the structure,status quo,and influence factors of the migrant seniors'integration into city life.The study shows that migrant seniors'integration into city life involves cultural integration,psychological identification and social interaction.Among them,cultural integration scores the highest(79.6),followed by psychological identity(66.4),and social interaction(37.9) the lowest.Family,community and security resources are major factors influencing migrant seniors'integration into city life.Increasing family support,allowing seniors space to voice their opinions,and making public service more accessible to them help migrant seniors integrate into city life.Security resources have a non-linear effect in social interaction.Lower security resources promote interaction,while higher security resources reduce interaction due to“squeeze out effect”.The quantile regression model further reveals that factors such as family,community,and security resources have a differential impact on the urban integration of migrant seniors in different quantiles.

115 Empirical Analysis of Emotional Contagion and Influence Mechanism of Clues on Social Media
YANG Guang
Emotional contagion refers to the process in which people become more similar to others in emotional expression after being exposed to other people's emotional expression.This is quite common in social media.Based on the characteristics of the network platform,the mechanism of emotional contagion,the clue research approaches,and information cascades theory,the author of this paper chooses 2955 posts and 136140 comments on the housing price issue in the online community “Home in Shenzhen”,using emotional analysis to study various kinds of visible clues on social media.The findings are as follows.First,there is heavy presence of emotional contagion on the network.Secondly,online emotions can,to a large extent,be manipulated.Emotional outburst and contagion are closely related to the attributes of topics,influence of opinion leaders,and user participation.Third,all kinds of visible clues (content and non-content) in online communities are important factors affecting other netizens'participation and emotional polarity expression.Social media is prone to polarization of online emotions and consensus of dominant emotion.The research results theoretically expand the interpretation scope of the network clue path research,help people deeply understand the network emotion contagion is not an unconscious but conscious participation process,and provide theoretic basis for relevant network regulatory authorities to properly handle the network emotion and contagion.

127 Is There a Kind of “Special Historical Materialism” in Marx's Theory?—A Discussion with Professor ZHANG Yi-bing
ZHAO Qing-yuan
The distinction between general historical materialism and special historical materialism appears when the study of Marxist philosophy is confronted with the relationship between the general development law of human history and the special operation law of capitalist mode of production.From the perspective of the historical logic criticism of modern capitalism,there is undoubtedly such special historical materialism in Marxism as Professor ZHANG Yi-bing talked about.However,it can been seen from the historical development of Marx's thought that special historical materialism is just the political and economic thought constructed and elaborated by Marx in his works such as Das Kapital.It is only because of the need to demonstrate the temporary historical nature of capitalist mode of production and its profound historical connotation that Marx's thought of political economy broke away from the narrow scope of bourgeois political economics and was thus characteristic of general political economics.However,as general political economics is taken as historical materialism,it conflicts with the concept of historical materialism originally regarded as the historical view of Marxist philosophy and science.This not only causes the confusion of the concept of historical materialism in form,but also leads to the wrong conclusion of completely denying general historical materialism from the point of the view of special historical materialism.In fact,general political economics was specifically termed as “political economics”or “critique of political economics”.There is no need to coin a new term of “special political economics”,which will cause confusion in Marxist philosophical theory and people's thinking and understanding.

136 Cultural Aesthetic Mechanism in Artistic Thinking:On the Interplay between Thinking and Language,Culture and Style
TANG Qi-yun
All cultures establish their semantic structures and formal “grammar”within their language in accordance with their values or taboos.Literary language and style are external presentation of the semantic structure and formal “grammar”of cultures.Although cultural customs can sometimes become mental shackles,once writers internalize the semantic structure and form “grammar”into intelligence,they develops an almost intuitive aesthetic ability,which become their “cultural eye”.Therefore,an era of great cultural change is bound to be an era of great stylistic change.Modern literature relies on rational thinking and cultural intuition inherent in various literary narratives to complete its dialogue with the world and history.The cultural intuition that writers rely on in their artistic imagination and their unique discourses in literary narration prove that there is strong interplay between culture and style,thinking and language.

145 The Origin and Evolution of “Di” in Shang and Zhou Dynasties from the Perspective of Man and Nature
LIU Guang-jie
The different evolution of “di (emperor)”in Shang and Zhou Dynasties is essentially a manifestation of the relation between man and nature.The Huaxia nationality generally believed that “di”originated from the female reproduction worship during the matriarchal society period.It is the confluence of three beliefs,namely,di is the source of life,the mother of all things and the gate of death and life,and it is a symbol of the supernatural power that is beyond human control.In the fight between man and nature,the big state Shang constantly played down the divine power of nature but played up human power,and thus replaced di,an upper god distant from humans,with lower gods and ancestors close to humans in the divine system,and the power of di therefore gradually declined.On the contrary,the small state Zhou recognized human power through worshipping divine power,therefore reshaped the core content of “tian (nature)”and “di”with human ethics and morality through internal transformation.It finally made a breakthrough in the integration of heaven and man,and made “di”evolve into a supreme god of yi (righteousness) and li (rationality) in early Zhou Dynasty.On the one hand,this can be attributed to the different social and historical conditions in Shang and Zhou.On the other hand,it reflects different qualities of Shang and Zhou:Shang was proud and pragmatic while Zhou were humble and respectful of tradition.

154 The Choice of National Southwest Associated University:United or Separated
XIONG Xian-jun
National Southwestern Associated University was a prestigious institution of higher learning resulting from the temporary forced merger of Peking University,Tsinghua University and Nankai University during the Anti-Japanese War.When the three universities first merged to form Changsha Temporary University,they started running the university together,and continued to do so when they later moved west to Kunming until the victory of the war.In fact,there were actually possible risks of separation and independence due to the forced merger of the schools.From Changsha period,to Mengzi period in Yunnan province,and then to the process of running the school in Kunming,the unity of the university was at stake on several occasions:some people suggested breaking up when the president did not arrive for his job;people from Peking University believed the university authority favored people of Tsinghua University;the university verged on separation when MEI Yi-qi intended to resign;the three universities requested the Ministry of Education to allocate funds to them respectively,which was also a prelude to separation.Fortunately,National Southwestern Associated University stayed united throughout the war despite all these twists and turns.The reason behind this is that the university had wise and patriotic intellectuals,trustworthy,modest and collaborative principals,and the safeguards of the Ministry of Education to maintain joint running of the three schools.Besides,it also learned a hard lesson from the separation of other associated universities such as National Northwestern Associated University.
