The Operational Status and Optimization Paths of the Sojourn Elderly Care Model in plateau Areas from the Perspective of Cultural Embeddedness
type: item
description: With the deepening population aging and the booming sojourn elderly care industry, plateau areas, boasting unique cultural and ecological resources, have become key carriers for model innovation. Guided by cultural embeddedness theory, this study focuses on Maoxian County’s sojourn elderly care model, examining cultural embedding across government institutions, natural health preservation, characteristic medicine, and cultural immersion. It identifies practical dilemmas: cultural identity conflicts, mismatched service supply, limited participants, and talent shortages. Corresponding optimization paths are proposed: optimizing government governance, enhancing natural health preservation, promoting characteristic medicine inheritance, and breaking cultural immersion barriers. The research reveals that cultural embedding in Maoxian’s model essentially reflects the symbiosis of ethnic culture and the elderly care industry. Successful practice requires adhering to "local adaptation, multi-stakeholder collaboration, innovation-driven empowerment, and inheritance activation," providing the elderly with "health preservation + culture" dual-value experience while offering practical and theoretical references for cultural resource activation, rural revitalization, and elderly care development in plateau areas.

An Empirical Study on the Coupling Development of the Red Tangerine Industry and Rural Tourism in the Three Gorges Reservoir Area
type: item
description: Against the dual background of the rural revitalization strategy and ecological protection in the Three Gorges Reservoir Area, the coupling development of the red tangerine industry and rural tourism in Wanzhou District is a key path to addressing industrial predicaments and tourism shortcomings. However, existing studies lack adaptability analysis for the special scenarios of the reservoir area. Based on time-series data and cross-sectional data from 2015 to 2024, this study constructs an evaluation system incorporating characteristic indicators such as ecological carrying capacity and immigrant employment driving rate, and systematically measures the coupling level using methods including the entropy weight method and coupling coordination degree model. The results show that the coupling degree increased from 0.40 to 0.73, realizing the leap from the antagonism stage to the running-in stage; the coupling coordination degree rose from 0.34 to 0.67, completing the upgrade from mild imbalance to good coordination; the relative development degree evolved from “rural tourism lagging → basically synchronized → red tangerine industry lagging”, with an E value of 0.89 in 2024, indicating that the lag in the tourism-oriented transformation of the industry is the core contradiction. Weak infrastructure and loose interest linkage are the main restrictive factors. The four-dimensional optimization path proposed in the study can provide reference for industrial integration in the reservoir area.

Capitalist Globalization and World Market in the Perspective of Marxism
type: item
description: From a Marxist perspective, this study delves into the impact of capitalist globalization on the world market. It examines the historical development and characteristics of capitalist globalization, as well as its exacerbation of global inequality and environmental degradation. The research indicates that while capitalist globalization has facilitated the allocation of global resources and the spread of technology, it has also led to wealth concentration and environmental issues. Changes in global supply chains and international labor division have further intensified the conflict between labor and capital, and the environmental crisis reflects the inherent contradictions of the capitalist production model. Marxism offers a theoretical framework for sustainable development, emphasizing the importance of transforming production methods, fostering international cooperation, and ensuring social equity.

Transmission and Reconstruction of Yue Regional Cultural Images in the International Dissemination of “The Tang Poetry Road in Eastern Zhejiang”
type: item
description: The Tang poetry along “The Tang Poetry Road in Eastern Zhejiang” contains three categories of Yue regional cultural images: natural landscape, humanistic history, and folk life. This study constructs a corpus of multiple English translations of Li Bai’s poems, comparing the transmission of Yue regional cultural images in the English translation process. It is found that translators mainly adopt translation strategies such as transliteration/literal translation plus annotation, free translation, amplification, omission, and substitution. However, due to linguistic barriers, cultural heterogeneity, and differences in translators’ aesthetic preferences, these images often suffer varying degrees of loss and mistranslation. Accordingly, this paper proposes reconstructing Yue regional cultural images from three dimensions: linguistic symbols (footnotes, endnotes, and paratexts), non-linguistic symbols (illustrations and real-scene photographs), and cross-cultural narration (replacing with similar cultural elements in Western contexts). These strategies aim to preserve the core of Yue culture while building a bridge for cross-cultural understanding, helping Western readers empathize with the poetic charm and humanistic connotations of the Yue region.

Perception of Leaders and Developments in Turkiye’s Foreign Policy (2002-2018)
type: item
description: This book argues that the fundamental transformation in Turkish foreign policy under the Justice and Development Party (AKP) from 2002 to 2018 is best explained by changes in the perceptions, worldviews, and identity-building projects of its leaders, principally Recep Tayyip Erdogan and Ahmet Davutoğlu. Employing a constructivist theoretical framework focused on the individual level of analysis, it traces a shift from a “Passive-Western-Oriented” discourse to a “Proactive-Unilateralist and Identity-Based” one. The doctrine of “Strategic Depth” provided the initial intellectual roadmap, while the Arab Spring served as a critical turning point. The interplay between leaders’ evolving perceptions of Turkiye’s power and identity forged two distinct periods: an era of unproblematic commercial diplomacy followed by a phase of aggressive, identity-driven policy. The book concludes that, although structural factors were influential, the agency and perceptions of leaders were decisive in redefining national interests and macro-orientation.

Adverse Childhood Experiences and Neighborhood Characteristics: A Systematic Review
type: item
description: Adverse childhood experiences (ACEs), including abuse and neglect, are strongly associated with children’s long-term development and have become a global policy priority. Although existing research has highlighted the predictive effects of ACEs and neighborhood characteristics on individual health outcomes, there is still a lack of systematic integration and review of evidence on the association between neighborhood characteristics and ACEs, which is critical to understanding child development. Following the PRISMA guidelines, we searched four major databases, screened the search results from 1999 to 2025, and used standardized tools for quality assessment. Ultimately, we identified 39 pieces of evidence and conducted a systematic review of these 39 studies, narratively summarizing the research findings. This review incorporates multidimensional neighborhood characteristics into the theoretical framework with the aim of exploring the association between neighborhood structural characteristics (such as poverty, racial diversity, safety, and resource accessibility) and non-structural characteristics (such as collective efficacy) with ACEs. The research results indicate that there is a significant association between neighborhood characteristics and ACEs risk. Therefore, considering neighborhood characteristics when developing ACEs intervention and prevention policies and strategies can help ensure the comprehensiveness of the plan.

Research on Mechanism, Dilemma and Path of Short Video Empowering Rural Revitalization from the Perspective of New Media
type: item
description: Against the backdrop of the deep integration of new media and China’s rural revitalization strategy, short video platforms are profoundly reshaping the narratives and practical pathways of rural development. This study employs a SWOT analysis to systematically examine the mechanisms and challenges of short video platforms in empowering this transformation. The analysis reveals that the core Strengths of these platforms lie in their decentralized content production model and precise algorithmic distribution. Conversely, their primary Weaknesses include content homogenization and inconsistent quality, driven by a “culture industry” logic that risks creating a stigmatized image of rural areas. Externally, significant Opportunities arise from national strategic support and growing market demand for “nostalgia consumption.”However, these are counterbalanced by realistic Threats, such as the value distortion caused by a “traffic-first” mentality and the limitations of algorithmic “echo chambers.” Consequently, this paper proposes a systematic optimization path across four dimensions: 1) combining top-level policy design with multi-stakeholder collaborative governance; 2) fostering a dual-drive of talent cultivation and content innovation; 3) promoting cultural empowerment alongside regional brand building; and4) coordinating technological optimization with “short video+” industrial integration. By outlining these paths, this research aims to provide theoretical and practical references for platform governance, policy formulation, and implementation in the context of rural revitalization.

Can Government Internet Service Levels Enhance Urban Entrepreneurship?—An Empirical Test Based on Data from 278 Chinese Cities
type: item
description: As economic globalization accelerates and big data and artificial intelligence dominate our era, enhancing urban entrepreneurship in China has become increasingly vital for national economic development. Policies aimed at improving government internet service capabilities align with this trend, making it crucial to investigate whether such capabilities can elevate urban entrepreneurship.This paper first introduces the conceptualization and measurement of government internet service capacity and urban entrepreneurial activity. It then examines domestic and international theoretical frameworks to analyze the underlying mechanisms through which government internet service levels may enhance urban entrepreneurship. Considering the global economic context and China’s specific economic conditions at the time these policies were introduced, the paper assesses the current state of urban entrepreneurship in Chinese cities.To empirically examine whether government internet service levels can elevate urban entrepreneurship, this study utilizes panel data from 278 Chinese cities spanning 2019-2021 in the era of big data and artificial intelligence. It constructs both a two-fixed-effects model and a mediation effect model to empirically investigate the impact of government internet service capacity on urban entrepreneurship levels. The main findings are as follows: (1) Enhancing local government internet service capabilities significantly and positively impacts urban entrepreneurship levels, with this conclusion remaining robust after stability tests. (2) Local government internet service capabilities primarily elevate urban entrepreneurship levels through the mediating effect of the business environment. (3)Heterogeneity analysis, which categorizes cities by geographical location (central, eastern, and western regions) and smart city status (smart or non-smart), reveals that the positive effect of government internet service capacity on urban entrepreneurship is more pronounced…
