Exploration of Government Public Opinion Guidance Mechanism in Emergencies
With the advent of the information age, the frequency of emergencies and the scope of their influence are gradually expanding, bringing serious challenges to social stability and public security. In emergencies, public opinion, as a concentrated manifestation of public sentiment and social opinion, spreads and evolves rapidly with far-reaching effects on the direction of events and public sentiment. Therefore, how the government can effectively guide public opinion has become an important part of emergency response. In this paper, we will discuss the challenges, necessity, and mechanism construction of the government's public opinion guidance, aiming to provide reference for the government's response to emergencies.
The Gains and Losses of U.S. Central Asia Policy in the Context of Geopolitical Rivalry
Since the dissolution of the Soviet Union, the Central Asian region has undergone profound geopolitical transformations. With the successive independence of the five Central Asian countries—Kazakhstan, Uzbekistan, Kyrgyzstan, Tajikistan, and Turkmenistan—a power vacuum emerged, enabling the United States to engage comprehensively in Central Asian affairs. This theoretical paper aims to analyze the evolution of U.S. policy in Central Asia through a geopolitical lens, identifying the core objectives, strategic shifts, and assess the gains and losses of its policies in the region. The findings indicate that U.S. policy has transitioned through three phases: (1) the "power vacuum period" prioritizing stability and independence from Russian influence, (2) the "forceful intervention period" following 9/11 focused on counterterrorism and democratization, and (3) the "strategic balancing period" after the Afghanistan withdrawal emphasizing multilateral cooperation and economic interests. While the U.S. has established a degree of presence in Central Asia, its long-term influence remains constrained by Russia’s enduring historical and cultural ties and the rising economic presence of other powers. Due to five Central Asian countries historical reality, the U.S. Central Asia policy should aim at promoting regional economic development and improving people's livelihood rather than ideological control.
The Impact of E-commerce on the Upgrading of County-level Industrial Structure—From the Perspective of Export and Enterprise Expansion
This paper takes the "Comprehensive Demonstration Counties for E-commerce in Rural Areas" project as a quasi-natural experiment and empirically analyzes the impact and action mechanism of e-commerce on the transformation and upgrading of the county-level industrial structure through a multi-period DID model. The results show that during the pilot period of the project, e-commerce has significantly promoted the upgrading of the county-level industrial structure. This effect is more pronounced in county-level regions in the western part of China and is influenced by local network resources and agricultural development. Further mechanism analysis shows that e-commerce mainly affects the transformation and upgrading of industrial structure through channels such as expanding product exports and stimulating entrepreneurial vitality.
The Rising Far Right in Australia—A Diachronic Case Analysis of the One Nation Party and Australia’s Political Environment
Since the subprime mortgage crisis, global right-wing extremism (RWE) has entered a new phase of ascendance, becoming particularly prominent in the post-pandemic era. While European parties such as AfD and RN are nearing political dominance, and the U.S. Republican Party is increasingly aligned with far-right populism, Australia’s One Nation Party (ONP), though relatively marginal, reflects similar ideological shifts. This paper investigates the rise of the ONP as part of a broader international trend, arguing that economic stagnation and a growing disconnect between progressive social values and material conditions have fueled public discontent. In response, the ONP has pursued a strategy of “de-radicalization”—rebranding itself as a national party and expanding its platform, aiming to attract mainstream voters, especially Generation Z. However, this paper contends that such moderation is tactical rather than substantive; the party’s ideological core remains extreme, limiting its capacity to deliver sustainable governance. In the long run, the ONP may prove no more effective than the left it seeks to replace. Through a diachronic analysis, this study situates Australia’s far-right evolution within global patterns while highlighting its unique political trajectory.
Utilizing Centennial Party History Resources to Promote the Innovative Development of College Students' Daily Ideological and Political Work Research
The president solemnly declared at the conference to celebrate the 100th anniversary of the founding of the Party that in the past 100 years, the Party has united and led the Chinese people to “write the most magnificent epic poem in the thousands of years of the history of the Chinese nation”, and that "the great roads opened up, the great undertakings created, and the great achievements made in these 100 years will surely be recorded in the history of the development of the Chinese nation and the history of human civilization! “The great paths opened up, the great undertakings created, and the great achievements made in these 100 years will surely be recorded in the annals of the development of the Chinese nation and the development of human civilization!” The resilience of the Party and the brilliant achievements it has made during its 100-year struggle have fully proved the correctness of the road to socialism with Chinese characteristics, the superiority of the socialist system with Chinese characteristics, and the truthfulness of the innovative theories of the Chineseization of Marxism. These achievements are not only the most vivid and persuasive historical “textbook” for strengthening confidence in the road, system and theory, but also a valuable asset that inspires us to continue to move forward. Standing at the historical intersection of the goal of “two hundred years”, facing the strategic overall situation of the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation as well as the great change that the world has not seen in a hundred years, we should deeply excavate and absorb the core resources of human education in the hundred years of Party history. Through the use of these party history resources, we can promote the innovation and development of the daily ideological and political work of college students, actively build and strengthen the path and key elements of the effectiveness of human education, and ensure that they are more effectively integrated into the whole process of the daily ideological and political work of college students, covering every link.
Artificial Intelligence and Urban Economics: An Observational Study on Labor Market Transformation and Commercial Real Estate Dynamics
This study combines current observation of empirical literature and current labor market data to assess the multi-dimensional impact of Artificial Intelligence (AI) on the urban labor markets and the resulting effects on the commercial real estate markets. The study show cases a multi-dimensional perspective by evaluating how the polarization of labor triggered by AI, the wage inequality triggered by skills sets and the emergence of anywhere working are changing the urban economic landscape. It is noted that the effect of AI is felt disproportionately on high skill, urban based jobs which has led to a re-evaluation of the traditional office requirements and further development through suburban working models and workplace hybrids. The study documents a defined geographic redeployment of the economic activity with major implications for the urban form and function. The concluding outcome of the study is that mitgating the negative effects and realizing the potential require an integrated multi-valued stakeholder response. The study offers evidence based suggestions for urban planners, investors and governments to develop the appealing, integrated and inclusive urban economic milieu during the period of AI.
Rethinking the Development of Science and Technology Finance in China
Technological innovation and financial development are mutually reinforcing.The financial system alleviates the financing constraints faced by technological innovation by providing services such as information incentives, risk management, and intertemporal resource allocation. This paper first reviews the interactive relationship between technological progress and financial innovation during the three industrial revolutions, clarifying the connotation and functional positioning of science and technology finance. Subsequently, by analyzing the structural characteristics of China’s financial system, it points out the limitations of the government-dominated credit system and bank-dominated financing structure in supporting technological innovation. Finally, it proposes policy recommendations for improving China’s science and technology finance system, including unblocking the circulation bottlenecks between science, technology, and finance, enriching the ecosystem of science and technology finance supply, and establishing a national-level science and technology finance support institution.
Research on the Implementation Path of Precise Ideological and Political Work in Colleges and Universities under the Background of Digital Transformation
In the new era of accelerated digital transformation, cutting-edge technologies such as artificial intelligence, big data, and cloud computing are triggering profound changes in the field of education. These changes not only manifest in the modernization of teaching methods but also fundamentally reconstruct the knowledge dissemination system and learning behavior patterns. Currently, ideological and political education is at a historic development opportunity. With the concept of “precise ideological and political education” incorporated into the national education strategic layout, colleges and universities urgently need to build an intelligent ideological and political education system based on digital technology. The construction of this system requires focusing on solving three core issues: how to use digital profiling technology to accurately identify students’ ideological dynamics, how to establish personalized education plans based on intelligent algorithms, and how to enhance the participation and effectiveness of ideological and political education through digital platforms. Especially in the post-pandemic era, the new normal of online and offline integrated teaching poses new challenges to the traditional ideological and political work model. This requires educators to deeply understand the underlying logic of technology-enabled education and, through the construction of a “data-driven - precise policy-making - dynamic feedback” closed-loop system, effectively enhance the contemporaneity and appeal of ideological and political education.
