	5	Overseas Discourse Spectrum and Construction Process of the Chinese Path to Modernization Model
		YANG Fan
		The overseas discourse spectrum of the Chinese path to modernization model refers to a collection of discourses by overseas academic circles that express the Chinese path to modernization model based on the perspective of discourse cognition as a theoretical framework with both integration and discreteness. This discourse content and cognitive analysis are complementary and closely related, and follow the compound path intersecting historical institutionalism and structural functionalism, striving to provide a profound explanation of the Chinese path to modernization model. To a certain extent, this interpretation process can also be looked as the construction process of discourse cognition. Therefore, the overseas discourse spectrum construction of the Chinese path to modernization model can also be understood as: it is a construction process, in which overseas scholars, based on the dimension of time and space, follow the historical practice of the Chinese path to modernization model since the reform and opening up, and use discourse as a cognitive tool to narrate relevant propositions such as the characteristics, evolution, and application of this model, and different cognitive theories are generated according to the development timeline of this model. Following the origin of construction of overseas discourse cognition, the “copying theory” based on the Western-centric cognitive stance in the 1990s, the “local theory” based on the Marxist stance in the 2000s, and the “transcendence theory” based on the modernization achievements of China in the new era from the 2010s to the present were correspondingly generated. Generally speaking, these propositions represent the cognitive mainstream of overseas academic circles on the Chinese path to modernization model. Whether it is academic affirmation or academic prejudice, as long as its irrational components are scientifically eliminated, in a certain sense, it can provide academic enlightenment and reference for the domestic academic community to carry out relevant research.

	14	High Level Technological Innovation Drives High-quality Development: Mechanisms, Problems, and Paths
		ZHOU Yong
		High level technological innovation promotes high-quality development, which is the continuation, deepening, and upgrading of innovation driven development. It is a new positioning for China’s innovation driven development strategy in the new era and points out specific directions for a new round of high-quality development. The high level of technological innovation is reflected in specific aspects such as time level, layout level, adaptation level, and spatial level. The higher the level of technological innovation, the more long-term it focuses on, the longer the effectiveness of high-quality development; The higher the conversion rate of high-level technological innovation, the more realistic the feasibility of high-quality development; The stronger the high-level technological innovation strategy, the broader the prospects for high-quality development; The closer the integration of high-level technology and high-tech industries, the higher the efficiency of high-quality development. In response to the problems of insufficient support, imperfect mechanisms, underutilized potential, increasingly limited space for progress, and inconsistent actions in promoting high-quality development through high-level technological innovation in China, it is necessary to coordinate various departments and related fields, continuously improve the level of technological innovation, and enhance the long-term support for high-quality development; Improve the mechanism for releasing and evaluating high-level scientific and technological achievements, and promote the high-quality development of the knowledge system; Strengthening the strategy of high-level technological innovation and serving the construction of a new development pattern; Coordinate layout and actions, strengthen the systematic integration of high-level technology and high-quality development.

Dialogue on Civilization and Cultural Comparison

	25	Rural Cultural Theory and Practice of XI Jin-ping’s Cultural Thought
		FENG Zhi-hong
		XI Jin-ping’s cultural thought is the cultural chapter of XI Jin-ping’s thought of socialism with Chinese characteristics in the new era. The theory of rural culture is an important part of XI Jin-ping’s cultural thought, and it is XI Jin-ping’s cultural thinking and theoretical exploration of “three rural” issues. Rural revitalization is an all-round revitalization of industry, talent, culture, ecology and organization. Culture is the soul of rural revitalization, and excellent rural culture plays an important leading role in rural revitalization. XI Jin-ping’s rural culture theory is rich in connotation, its core meaning is: pay attention to the construction of rural spiritual civilization, and emphasize the leading role of socialist core values in the construction of rural culture; pay attention to the protection and utilization of rural traditional culture, concerned about the inheritance and development of rural excellent traditional culture; pay attention to the supply of public cultural products and services in rural areas, and advocate a wide range of colorful mass cultural activities; we opposed feudal superstitions and old customs and advocated changing customs and cultivating civilized local customs. In the new era, in the revitalization of rural areas, we must give full play to the spiritual leading role of XI Jin-ping’s rural culture theory, strengthen the grassroots party building, enhance the self-confidence of rural culture, pay attention to the construction of rural cultural talents, correctly deal with the relationship between cultural undertakings and cultural industries, cast the soul for rural revitalization, and strive to write a new chapter in agricultural and rural modernization.

	33	The Emergence Logic and World Significance of Modern Chinese Civilization
		MENG Xian-li
		The modern Chinese civilization belongs to a new form of human civilization. The modern Chinese civilization inherited the characteristics of the Chinese civilization, and developed and manifested these characteristics in the new era and practice, and then grew some distinctive characteristics of its own. The modern Chinese civilization has the characteristics of a profound people’s position, distinctive national character, permanent inheritance, outstanding progressiveness, and consistent peaceful nature. The emergence of the modern Chinese civilization conforms to the logic of history, theory and practice. It is not only the inevitable result of the development and evolution of the history of human civilization and Chinese civilization but also the inevitable requirement of inheriting and expanding the Marxist civilization view. It is also an inevitable outcome of the rejuvenation of the Chinese nation on all fronts through a Chinese path to modernization. As a new form of human civilization, the modern Chinese civilization has not only profoundly changed and influenced China but also fully demonstrated its historical mission and global responsibility, which is of great global significance. The modern Chinese civilization outstripped the “clash of civilizations” theory, contributed Chinese wisdom to exchanging and learning among the world civilizations, and surpassed the “West-centrism”, provided Chinese experience for the modernization of civilizations of many developing countries, and also surpassed the “zero-sum game theory”, laid a realistic foundation for the construction and development of a community with a shared future for mankind.

Innovation Economy and Cultural Industry

	44	Key Issues of Chinese Cultural Industry Driven by Cultural Policy
		WANG Jin-hui
		Since the 17th National Congress of the Communist Party of China put forward the idea of “vigorously developing the cultural industry” in 2007, the state has successively issued a series of related policies to promote the vigorous development of China’s cultural industry. The academic circles have also rapidly launched the related research on the theory of cultural industry, and the research results are getting deeper and deeper. After the planning guidance period, the strategic depth development period and the high-quality development period of the cultural industry policy, driven by the cultural policies in different periods, the practice and theoretical research of the cultural industry also showed phased characteristics. On the practical level, there are obvious policy traces from the construction of cultural industry parks, the transformation of cultural industry development mode, the development of characteristic cultural industries, the construction of national cultural parks to the top-level design of digital cultural industries. Theoretical research, from the analysis of cultural industry concepts, the research of development strategy, the research on the cultural industry system to the exploration of high-quality development of cultural industries, is closely related to the top-level design of national cultural industry policies. However, there are many difficulties in the research of cultural industry in China, such as the lag of theoretical research and the lack of in-depth research of specific industries, and many fields need to be deepened. In the future, we need to focus on building a theory of China’s cultural industry, conducting in-depth research on specific industries, responding to practical issues of the times, and maintaining the continuity of research.

Economic Growth and Financial Innovation

	71	Can Digital Technology Narrow the Regional Manufacturing Total Factor Productivity Gap
		LIU Fu-hua, SONG Ran
		Narrowing the gap of total factor productivity in the manufacturing industry is an important part of promoting regional coordinated development and high-quality development of regional manufacturing. The R&D and application of digital technology not only provide an important impetus for the growth of total factor productivity in the manufacturing industry, but also affect the gap of total factor productivity in China’s regional manufacturing industry. Based on the provincial panel data of China from 2014 to 2022, with the theory of appropriate technological progress and technology diffusion as the core, this paper systematically analyzes the impact of digital technology spatial spillover on the total factor productivity gap of the regional manufacturing industry, and discusses the impact of the two constraints of digital economy development level and scientific and technological resource endowment on the relationship between digital technology and the total factor productivity gap of the manufacturing industry. The results show that, from an overall perspective, the development of digital technology is conducive to narrowing the gap of regional manufacturing total factor productivity, and the spatial spillover of digital technology accelerates the convergence of manufacturing total factor productivity. From the perspective of mechanism, the backward spatial spillover of digital technology contributes more significantly to the reduction of regional total factor productivity gap than the forward spillover. When the level of digital technology is relatively high, digital technology narrows the total factor productivity gap of the provincial manufacturing industry through technology diffusion; when the level of digital technology is relatively low, digital technology expands the total factor productivity gap of the provincial manufacturing industry through technology diffusion; when regional innovation factor endowments are similar, digital technology contributes more to the narrowing of regional manufacturing total factor productivity gap through technology diffusion.

	83	How Digital Finance Accurately Promotes Income Increase of Target Rural Households
		AN Cong-mei
		Based on the China Rural Revitalization Survey (CRRS) database, this paper empirically examines the impact of digital finance on the credit availability and multi-dimensional income of target rural households, and the results show that:（1）Digital finance has a more significant impact on the availability of credit for rural households with borrowing needs, labor ability and learning ability, and digital finance has an amplification mechanism on the credit demand side among the target farmer groups, supporting rural household credit shift from nominal demand to effective demand. （2）Hardware equipment, network conditions and village information network delivery will all affect the targeting of target farmers by digital finance, but the effect of the impact varies in different target groups. Hardware equipment and network conditions have the greatest impact on the sample of farmers with borrowing needs, and village information network delivery has the most significant impact on the sample of farmers with learning ability. （3）Among the samples of three types of farmers with borrowing needs, labor capacity and learning capacity, digital finance has a mediating effect on the property income of the target farmers with credit availability as the mediating variable; in the samples with labor capacity and with learning capacity, credit availability plays a complete intermediary role in the impact of digital finance on non-agricultural operating income of target farmers; digital finance has a significant positive impact on wages/entrepreneurial income of three types of farmers, but this effect is not realized through the intermediary effect of credit availability. These conclusions remain valid after considering robustness and endogeneity issues.

Politics, Law and Social Governance

	94	The Incompatibility between Institutional Logics and the Flexible Implementation of Grassroots Market Supervision
		LIU Pei-wei
		The inspection of the implementation of “double randomness, one openness” institution involves not only understanding the logic of grassroots regulatory behavior, but also judging the rational process of national governance. Based on the observation of the implementation by the Market Supervision Bureau of S County, it was found that the modern governance logic based on the institution cannot be compatible with the overall governance logic of the country, resulting in their unwillingness and inability to use “double randomness” as the basic regulatory method; due to compliance with the overall stability and development of local governments, it is impossible for them to disclose punishment information in accordance with regulations. Constrained by multiple and incompatible institutional logics at the national and local levels, especially the “local overall situation” logic, the grassroots regulatory authorities’ behavior does not follow a linear logic from seeking rent to following procedures to avoid responsibility, but rather has multiple and ever-changing faces. The flexible implementation at the grassroots level ultimately leads to two “unintended consequences”: the country’s risk-free goals are replaced by the professional risk-free goals of grassroots regulators, and the country’s modern regulatory system reform is alienated into a tool for serving local stability and development. The fundamental solution to the problem of flexible implementation lies in optimizing the government’s responsibility system, streamlining the relationship between central and local governments, as well as between local governments and society and the market, so that regulatory personnel have the motivation and ability to implement the country’s rational institutional design, and effectively promote the rationalization and modernization of governance.

	103	Value Dialectics, Regulatory Orientation and Implementation Path of Algorithm Transparency in Robo-advisory
		LIU Bo-han
		Robo-advisory using AI technology to analyze big data can better implement the principle of investor suitability and generate more suitable investment allocation schemes for investors, but they also conceal negative effects such as financial institutions’ profit-grabbing, risk mismatch of investment solutions, and hollowing out of the legal obligations of investment advisors. Algorithm transparency helps to break the tyranny of algorithms, eliminate algorithm discrimination, and lay the foundation for algorithm accountability, while algorithm confidentiality is necessary to maintain national scientific and technological strength, and to maintain the competitiveness of scientific and technological enterprises in the market. In the face of the value conflict between algorithm transparency and algorithm confidentiality, complete algorithm transparency and absolute algorithm confidentiality are both biased, and different degrees and levels of algorithm transparency should be realized for different subjects in different ways according to the different purposes of regulating algorithms. The hierarchy of algorithmic transparency is a specific application of the principle of proportionality, the function of measuring interests, and the proportional analysis paradigm of “ends-means” in the governance of robo-advisory algorithms. In the realization path of algorithmic transparency of robo-advisory, “compliance review + algorithmic filing” is used to realize algorithmic model transparency in order to prevent and control systemic financial risks, “algorithmic informing + algorithmic interpretation” is used to realize algorithmic logic transparency in order to protect the investors right to know. Afterward, it evaluates the degree of influence of algorithms on investors’ trust interests, and clarifies the subjectivity, causality and relevance of algorithmic decision-making, so as to determine and allocate algorithmic responsibilities.

	114	Static Rules and Dynamic Harmonization of Treaty Interpretation by Domestic Court
		LI Da-peng
		As for the interpretation of treaties by domestic courts, two dimensions should be studied at the same time. One is static rules, which is to solve the problem of the rules of treaty interpretation by courts. The second is dynamic harmonization, which aims to achieve the harmonization of treaty interpretation factors, interpretation paths and interpretation results. As far as the static rules, the court should not adopt the rules of contract interpretation or the rules of domestic law interpretation, but the rules of international law interpretation. To be specific, the court shall interpret the treaty in accordance with the rules provided by the treaty to be interpreted and Articles 31-33 of the Vienna Convention on the Law of Treaties, which embody interpretation rules of customary international law. As far as dynamic harmonization, the court should take the interpretation results as the anchor, adjust and optimize the interpretation path, and choose appropriate interpretation factors or a combination of interpretation factors in order to interpret treaties. To be specific, firstly, the factors to be taken into account by the court include the usual meaning, object and purpose, context, subsequent agreement and subsequent practice. Secondly, in the interpretation path, the court should choose the appropriate interpretation factor or combination of interpretation factors according to the internal logic of the Vienna Convention on the Law of Treaties, and if the interpreted treaty itself has special provisions for its interpretation, the court should apply such provisions. Thirdly, for interpretation results, the court should abide by pacta sunt sevenda, interpret the treaty in good faith, deal with the connection between the interpreted treaty and domestic law, and should not exceed the scope of its judicial jurisdiction.

	125	Bilateral Patriarchy: The Intergenerational Relationship and Its Practical Logic in “Bilocal Marriage”
		SU Yun-xun
		“Bilateral patriarchy” is a new family power relationship pattern with three pillars: in-laws, blood relatives and intergenerational relationships. The bilateral practice in the form of “bilocal marriage” has attracted widespread attention and discussion in the academic community. However, existing research lacks a systematic research on the intergenerational interaction mechanisms of “bilocal marriage”. Fieldwork research based on southern Jiangsu found that the practice of “bujia buqu”, “residing-both-sides”, unified kinship title, bilateral inheritance and support, and equal rights to bear surnames are increasingly common, and a relatively stable mode of intergenerational interaction has gradually formed. In this bilateral generational interaction mode, the female family plays an increasingly prominent role in the small family. Based on the emotional demands for intergenerational intimacy, the value demands for family continuity and the equal rights demands of dual-line family, parents on both sides continuously deepening their intervention in the small family, thus forming a “bilateral patriarchy” pattern. Under this pattern, dual-line native families provide sufficient economic and human support for small families. This not only enables young couples to maintain a middle-class life, but also liberates them from family life to some extent, thus better handling the relationship between family and career, which is particularly important for young women. In return, small families also have to transfer some of its rights to both parents in order to maintain intergenerational balance and mutual benefit. The proposal of “bilateral patriarchy” breaks through the assumption of patrilineal monogamous families in patriarchy theory and further enriches and promotes patriarchal theory.

Humanities and Chinese Spirit

	134	From “Practicability” to “Applicability”:On the Discourse Space of Modern Literary Aesthetics
		TANG Qi-yun, YIN Guo-ming
		In the discourse space constructed by the intersection of traditional thought of “practical application” and modern pragmatism philosophy, Chinese philosophy began to change from metaphysics to practical learning; literature and art have also shifted from ethereal, freehand brushwork and symbolism to reality, realism and practicality. Modern Chinese literary aesthetics has also transcended from a pure theory or conceptual state and began to connect and combine with Chinese reality and local culture. However, Chinese aesthetics did not follow the path provided by practical philosophy; but it turned to the realism aesthetics which is more “applicable” to the reality of Chinese revolution. Although pragmatism philosophy got a cold shoulder in the era impulsion of enriching the country and strengthening the people. In the cultural exchanges between China and the West that began in the late Qing Dynasty, traditional thought of “practical application” gave birth to LI Da-zhao’s conception of the aesthetics of “the theory of harmony”, which was intended to infiltrate the western philosophy into the field of literary and artistic creation, and to promote the ability to create art and literature in a practical way. In the “May Fourth” New Culture Movement, the Western philosophy of pragmatism and its scientific way of thinking began to be integrated into the creation of Chinese literature and art, and the “form” experiment of literature and art was carried out. however, the concepts of “revolution”, “reality”, “material” and “practice” have entered the discourse space of Chinese aesthetics in the failed movement of “Western learning spreading to the East”, and have become the “bridgehead” of Marxist philosophy and aesthetics.

	144	The Expansion and New Changes of Women’s Literature in the Song Dynasty under Spatial Displacement
		LIU Shuang-qin
		Spatial experience has important basic significance for literary expression. Under the traditional gender order and spatial pattern that strictly separated inside and outside, spatial displacement had an important influence on the development of female literature in the Song Dynasty. In addition to short-distance daily travel, female writers in the Song Dynasty generally increased their long-term and long-distance travel activities, mainly including travel due to war, travel with family, travel for daily livelihood, etc. Spatial displacement was an important way for females in the Song Dynasty to obtain non-daily spatial experience. It not only brought profound and rich foreign experiences to females in the Song Dynasty, but also added heterogeneous resources to their literary creations, promoting the transformation of ancient females’ literature from “medieval” to “modern”, mainly manifested in spatial displacement caused the transformation of females’ identity from subject to object in the Song Dynasty, the awakening of local consciousness from missing the place faraway to missing the hometown, and the expansion of literary vision from single to multiple. As a result, the literature of the Song Dynasty deepened the emotional depth of creation, expanded the breadth of literary themes, and enhanced the ideological height of literature.

	152	Algorithmic Ideology and Ideological Algorithms
		LIU Wei-bing
		Algorithmic technology, as a finite sequence of instructions for processing data, is designed through code to design specific programs and steps so that classification, regression, and clustering of data can be accomplished on the basis of information data collection. Algorithmic techniques are able to automatically improve performance and gradually adapt to tasks through data or experience, presenting autonomous learning capabilities. The intelligent characteristics of algorithms make them widely used in production methods and social practices, thus implanting algorithmic technological logic into the process of ideology generation, promoting the socialization of spiritual production, the digital transformation of the ideological forms and the structure of ideology, and giving rise to the phenomenon of the algorithmic ideology and ideological algorithms. Algorithmic ideology is essentially the application of algorithmic technology in production practice to generate algorithmic leviathan, and in the field of ideological communication presents “filter bubbles”, “information cocoon”, “echo chamber”, etc, and in the field of ideological identity is manifested as digital fetishism. The algorithm of ideology is the algorithm technology in the application of logic under the ideology of data training and programming, not only the algorithm technology is constructed in the form of ideology construction and the process of ideological endowment, and algorithmic black box, algorithmic discrimination, algorithmic backdoor and other technical issues are also the ideological leadership, discourse, dominant algorithmic technology embodiment. In short, the ideology of algorithm and the algorithm of ideology are two sides of the same coin, which are essentially the reproduction of ideology through algorithm technology.
