Where will the Collective Ownership go:based on a theoretical hypothesis

Luo Yuhui

At present, China's rural land has formed a “family contract management system” under the “collective ownership system”, which is under the policy of “l(fā)and confirmation” and “l(fā)and transfer”.It has two parts:one is “Family contracting”, which guarantees the fairness among farmers; the other is “Transfer operation”, which enhances the operational efficiency of agriculture and opens a channel to develop scale agriculture and modern agriculture.However, the process of urbanization and the endogenous changes in land transfer have caused the rural population to decrease, and the corresponding concept of rural collectives will also change.In this historical context, this paper proposes a theoretical hypothesis, in the dynamic evolution from “big collective” to “small collective”, that the public ownership nature of collective ownership may evolve into private ownership.Although this is only a hypothesis, we should attach great importance to the developing direction of collective ownership in the forward-looking, and make timely policy adjustments to safeguard the fairness and justice of our socialism.

The "China-South Korea Program" for Economic Cooperation in the Korean Peninsula:A Perspective of the "Belt and Road" Connectivity with "Korean Peninsula New Economic Map"

Li Zhezhou, Liu Cunjing

The introduction of DPRK's "socialist economic development" in the connectivity of the "Belt and Road" with ROK's "Korean Peninsula New Economic Map" is a "China-South Korea program" based on diversified economic cooperation.Under the new framework, it is necessary to study the political and economic environment, obstacles and breakthrough directions of the "China-South Korea Program".The Program is a new combination of pragmatic cooperation between China, the DPRK and the ROK.It first means that ROK will greatly enhance the opportunities for ROK's multilateral strategic economic cooperation by connecting the infrastructure of land transportation and logistics between DPRK and Eurasia.Second, DPRK will further reinforce it's international cooperation with neighboring countries and multilateral economic cooperation.Third, it means that China will lift the main international factors that restrict the development of the Northeast region and enhance the interconnection between Northeast China and the Peninsula.

Approaching Confucianism through the Great Learning:its Significance and Limitation—Also on Combining Mengzi and Xunzi

Liang Tao

There are two faces of Confucianism:one is to accomplish oneself and to benefit others, and “governing with virtue”; the other is to extend oneself to others, and to “govern the state with rituality”.The former begins with morality and leads to politics, which can be called the way of Confucius and Mencius, while the path of the later is from politics to morality, which can be viewed as the rituality of Confucius and Xunzi.The Great Learning was greatly valued in the Song dynasty.This is not because it responded to the faith problem of “nature and the heavenly way”, but has its historical reasons.After the demise of the Northern Song, the rulers blamed their failure on the reform policy of Wang Anshi.They then banned free speech of system reform, and tried to change the society through the perfection of morality.Such is the internalization turn.It was through this process that the Great Learning became a Confucian canonical under the interpretation of Zhu Xi.When discussing Confucianism in our present time we should go beyond the narrowness of the Neo- Confucian Orthodoxy (道統(tǒng)說).We should, rather, combine the way of Confucians and Mencius and the rituality of Confucius and Xunzi in order to develop a more wholesome Confucian system.Henceforth, I propose my thoughts on the New Confucian Orthodoxy and the New Four Books.

Phenomenology of Home—From Heidegger, Levinas to Confucianism

Zhu Gang

Philosophy is usuallydescribed as a kind of homesickness.But "home" can be distinguished in three different meanings:first, the home as being affectionate toward relatives (親親) or family; second, the home as the place where humans live; and finally, the home as the ultimate origin of meaning where humans are really humans .When philosophy is defined as homesickness, the "home" here is actually in the third sense.But since it is called "home", this fact already implies that it has a secret relationship with home in the first two senses.In fact, in the history of human civilization or philosophy, Confucianism takes the being affectionate toward relatives (親親) or family as the ultimate source of meaning; Levinas also regards the relationship between I and others—its original form is parent-child relationship —as the ultimate home of man; in his later philosophy, Heidegger regards the home in the sense of dwelling place as the presence of Being which is understood as the ultimate home of human.These different thoughts about home, especially the relationship between home and the ultimate source of meaning, constitute three different kinds of phenomenology of home.

The Establishment and Vicissitude of Physical Education at National Universities In Modern China—Focusing on Peking University

Bai Xuesong, Zhang Shen

Taking the form of military drills, physical education was initially introduced in the Imperial University as a compulsory course during the “New Policies” reform.After 1911, the new Ministry of Education maintained the military style of physical education as a way of encouraging military citizenship, expecting to strength the nation and promote the republican ideals.Students of Peking University at this time, however, dismissed physical education as a “disgraceful activity” which was not for the intellectual.After assuming the power in 1927, the Nanjing National Government began to strictly control the implementation of physical education at Peking University by putting military training and the KMT’s ideology in PE class, which finally led to a student strike in 1934.By examining the establishment and vicissitude of physical education at Peking University before 1936, we can better understand the history of physical education at Peking University as well as the dynamic interplay between students and state in modern China.

Does Beauty Make Life More Satisfying?— Empirical Study Based on CFPS 2016

Lian Tengfei, Cai Shenggang

As a human capital, beauty can affect many aspects of individual life.Based on the data of China Family Tracking Survey (CFPS), this paper studies the effect of appearance on individual life satisfaction on the basis of controlling the fixed effect of interviewers.The results show that appearance has a significant positive impact on the individual's evaluation of life satisfaction.Sub-sample regression found that:(1) women's appearance has a significant impact on life satisfaction; (2) for people with higher education, appearance also has a significant impact on their life satisfaction; (3) non-agricultural workers' appearance and life satisfaction are significantly positively correlated.The average appearance level of other family members was taken as a tool variable to be included in the regression, and the results are still robust.Finally, the mechanism of facial appearance affecting life satisfaction is discussed.

Two Representative Models and Their Comparative Analysis of Urban Grid Management—A Case Study of Dongcheng District of Beijing and Shenzhen City of Guangdong Province

Zhang Zhang

As a grassroots governance model with Chinese characteristics, the grid management is an important starting point for promoting the commonwealth shared by people and refining social management.In the context of advancing the governance ability and modernization of governance systems, the practice of grid management across the country has been fully developed and relevant theories have been further improved.This paper selects two representative grid management modes, which we called "the model of Dongcheng District" and "the model of Shenzhen City".By case analysis and comparative analysis, we comprehensively review their target constructions, operation modes, practical applications, etc.Based on these, we explore the institutional logic, existing problems and possible prospects of grid management, and try to improve the thinking and developing direction of grid management.
