Specialization or Diversification:Which is More Conducive to Foreign Trade Resilience?Evidence from China-Russia Border Regions in Northeast China

Under the background of complex international situation,how to build the special geo-economic space of China-Russia bor-der lies in strengthening their foreign trade resilience against external shocks.Based on empirical evidence from ten prefecture-level China-Russia border regions in Northeast China,this paper analyzed the spatiotemporal evolution of foreign trade resilience under dif-ferent shocks.Furthermore,through the Panel Regression model,the mechanism of the industrial structure on the foreign trade resili-ence in contraction period and expansion period was discussed.The results showed that:1)from 2004 to 2021,foreign trade in China-Russia border regions experienced five phases.The overall foreign trade resilience was higher than expected,showing a rising volatility trend,but there was significant spatial heterogeneity in the ability of cities to cope with shocks.2)Highly specialized clusters were mainly concentrated in Yichun,Heihe and Da Hinggan Ling Prefecture,while Mudanjiang and Yanbian performed better in related and unrelated diversification.3)In different stages of economic system evolution,the response mode,degree and result of border foreign trade resilience to regional industrial structure showed obvious stage characteristics.During the contraction period,related diversifica-tion was more conducive to improving the resistance through risk spillovers.During the expansion period,specialization played a more significant role in improving regional resilience through self-reinforcing effect.These results are beneficial for expanding the resilience theory,ensuring border economic security and optimizing border industrial investment layout.

Public choice on coordinated development of border regions and its empirical research:a case study of Wuling mountain area

Due to the difficult segmentation of land destiny, popularity destiny, industry destiny on the platform of common interests demand, the regional governance of production and living for the needs of the people in cross-regional areas, such as in the aspects of security, education, assignment and management of water resources, transportation, energy, environment protection and public health, the administrative border regional cooperation is relatively easy. These aspects are equivalent to public products. Just because of this, it leads to problems that nobody will not control. The governments, in order to realize regional economic coordinated development and to eliminate the regional interests parties of administrative regions economy in microcosmic, were adapting various self-protection measures, even including that "you may have your policy but I have my countermeasures" that is derived from inter-regional economic relations. The action of market segmentation has limited the flow of various economic development elements, especially the condition of "dead end highway", resource exploitation and use, difficult social security work in social living of the administrative boundary zone. This paper studies the typical economical district of Wuling mountain area in the obvious strategic position at the junction of Chongqing, Guizhou, Hunan, Hubei provinces from the angle of regional public management and public choice to present issue awareness and academic purpose.

CONCEPTION OF ESTABLISHING THE SINO-RUSSIAN BORDER FREE ECONOMIC REGION

So called free economic region is a special region without jurisdiction of customs, delimited by one country. There are mainly four types of free economic region, that is, commercial type of free economic region —free port, industrial type of free economic region — export processing area, integrated commercial and trade type of free economic region — free trade zone, and scientific and technological type of free economic region — scientific industrial park. With the development of free economic region of different countries, besides free economic region within one country, there appear transnational border free economic region established by two or multiple countries. Analysing favorable factors and unfavorable factors to establish the free economic region for China and Russia, for example, China and Russia have land boundary line of 4282.7 km; China and Russia may strengthen overall cooperation in politics, military, economy, science and technology, culture, etc. making full use of geographical factors of the two countries, borders; there is a strong complementarity in resources, labour force etc. for China and Russia; strengthening the Sino Russian economic trade cooperation is needed, the authors proposed a conception and selected four comparative ideal locations for establishing the Sino Russian border free economic region: Manzhouli Zabaikalye Free Economic Region, Heihe Blagoveshchensk Free Economic Region, Suifenhe Pogranichnyy Free Economic Region, Hunchun Hasan Free Economic Region. Finally the principles and patterns for establishing free economic region are discussed.

A Toxicological Assessment of Endocrine Disrupting Chemicals Found in the BMW (Border, Midland and Western) Region of Ireland

A battery of tests was established to determine the oestrogenic, mutagenic and genotoxic potential of two categories of endocrine disrupting chemicals (EDCs), phthalates and alkylphenols. Diisononylphthalate (DINP), diethylhexylphthalate (DEHP), dibutylphthalate (DBP), diisododecylphthalate (DIDP) and 4-nonylphenol (4-NP) were oestrogenic in the yeast estrogen screen (YES) assay and potently oestrogenic in the MVLN and E-SCREEN assays at environmentally relevant concentrations. DINP and 4-NP were mutagenic in the Ames assay and also induced significant levels of unscheduled DNA synthesis and DNA strand breakage. Significant induction in the percentage of cells containing micronuclei was observed after treatment with DINP, DEHP and 4-NP. In addition, sewage effluents from sewage treatment plants (STPs) in the Border, Midlands and Western (BMW) region of Ireland were significantly oestrogenic in the YES assay. Moreover, analysis of levels of phthalates and alkylphenol identified in Irish rivers receiving treated effluent showed potent oestrogenicity in the YES assay. The proliferative and genotoxic ability of the phthalates and alkylphenol, and the oestrogenicity of the treated effluents reported here, is significant as these EDCs and EDCs within the effluent may play a role in the etiology of human abnormalities.

SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT OF CROSS-BORDER REGIONS:A METHODOLOGICAL STUDY

The exploitation and protection of natural and environmental resources have posed a growing challenge to cross-border regions. In this paper, a methodological study in relation to the sustainable development of cross-border regions is conducted. Our particular interest focuses on the locational characteristics of cross-border regions as well as their economic implications to the cross-border governments. Based on a sustainable development model from which the optimal outputs of different kinds of border-regions can be derived, we try to methodologically help cross-border governments to reach a final agreement of sustainable development of natural and environmental resources.It is concluded that the methods by which the net benefits among the sub-regions can be redistributed may be: 1) to equalize the absolute values of net benefit among all sub-regions concerned; and 2) to equalize the relative values of net benefit among all sub-regions concerned.

THE ECONOMIC IMPACT OF SPATIAL ORGANZATIONAL STRUCTURES ON THE PROVINCIAL BORDER－REGIONS OF CHINA

Based on the spatial organizational structures of the provincial border-regions (a border-region is one which borders two or more independent administrative regions), we build a spatial economic model for N-provincial border-regions (a N-p border-region is one which is under the jurisdiction of N provincial governments) and find that, for a given region with same geographical condition and resources endowment, the largest output of a N-p border-regional system will not exceed that ofa (N-1)-p border-regional system, i.e., F. Using the model in this paper, we present a quantitative method to calculate the economic impacts of 'provincial borders' and apply it to the border-region of Shanxi, Hebei, Shangdong, and Henan provinces. The result shows that the economic potential in the border-region hasnot been efficiently exploited and that the annual gross agricultural products have decreased by 10.4% due to the 4-p borders.

Regional Stress Field and Seismic Dynamics Along the Border Zone Between Fujian, Guangdong and Jiangxi Provinces

The regional stress field and seismic dynamics along the border zone between Fujian, Guangdong and Jiangxi Provinces are studied based on the seismo-geological data,GPS measurement, and seismicity. The results show that: (1) the principal compressional stress of the stress field is oriented in NW-SE direction and the principal extensional stress is in NE-SW direction; (2) the WNW-ward compression and collision of the Philippine Sea Plate to the eastern coast of Taiwan Island are the most direct and most important dynamic source for preparation and occurrence of strong earthquakes in the Taiwan Region and along the border zone between Fujian, Guangdong and Jiangxi Provinces.

以文化之名:民国时期政学两界对“中国式边疆”现代化的思考

民国时期政学两界对“边疆”的界定除了基于政治与地理意义外,更多考察其“文化”元素,普遍认为如不从“文化”着眼,无法道尽“边疆的涵义”。这是一种典型的“中国式边疆”,形成了“中国边疆”独特的“边疆性”,由此中国边政内涵也极为丰富。“边疆性”之形成,既然主要来自“文化”因素,那么边疆现代化的实质就是要消除“边疆性”,让其失去“文化上的意义”。所谓“文化”,包括物质文化和精神文化。消除“边疆性”并非抹杀文化,而是通过发展经济和增进认同,按李安宅的观点,就是要通过物质和精神的“区域分工”,也就是要实现边疆现代化及其与内地的一体化。

论香港地区与内地个人信息的协同保护

数字时代为香港地区与内地个人信息的协同保护提供了历史契机。相较于欧盟提倡的“统一标准规制模式”,新近区域贸易协定(RTAs)发展出的个人信息保护的“求同与存异并举规制模式”,更有利于在协调香港地区与内地个人信息保护制度差异的同时,保持香港地区的独特地位和优势。数字时代推动香港地区与内地个人信息协同保护,应统筹发展与安全,确立香港地区与内地间个人信息自由跨境原则的同时规定例外条款作为安全阀机制;坚持“求同与存异”并举,在尊重香港地区个人信息保护制度独特性的同时充分协调两地个人信息保护法律的基本原则框架;加强交流与合作,构建更加灵活多元的跨境个人信息协同保护制度机制。

湘赣边区红色村落保护水平的空间分异及其影响因素

厘清红色村落保护水平的空间差异性及影响因素,对湘赣边区传承红色基因、赓续民族精神、推进乡村振兴至关重要。通过构建红色村落保护分析框架,依次运用Arc GIS空间分析方法、逐步回归、地理加权回归模型,探究湘赣边区红色村落保护水平的空间分异及影响因素。研究表明:(1)红色村落保护研究模型包含评价模型与影响因素模型,评价模型涵盖宏观区域保护水平和微观社区保护水平,基于时空特征的区域保护水平是较为适配的模型;影响因素模型包括依据自然地理和社会经济划分的两类基本模型。(2)湘赣边区红色村落区域保护水平空间分异现象明显,空间分布上呈现“一带–三核心”连片分布结构形态;井冈山市保存率与保存密度均为最高,分别为4.72%、38.52个/万 km^(2)。(3)影响湘赣边区红色村落保护水平的自然地理因素为海拔、地貌、水系、中心市县和交通;社会经济类因素影响效应存在显著空间异质性,就影响程度而言,呈“文化基底>人口规模>经济发展>产业基础”的位序。

新发展格局下湘赣边区域合作示范区建设成效、现实困境与优化路径

近年来,湘赣边区域合作示范区不断深化拓展合作领域,在合作机制、产业协同、文化旅游、政务服务、生态环境等领域都有不同程度的合作,取得显著成效,但也存在着各县(市、区)经济发展非均衡性扩大、现代产业体系不健全、高科技产业布局偏少、优秀人才流失现象比较严重、跨区域合作机制有待完善等现实困境。未来,应抓住湘赣边区域合作上升为国家战略的契机,推动现代产业集群发展;建立多个区域性中心城市,缩小城市发展差距;持续强化人才引育和服务力度,为湘赣边区域合作提供坚强人才支撑;推进跨区域合作制度和标准对接,推动多领域、多层次的合作共建,最终实现从省际边界区合作共识到合作共建的“湘赣边模式”新跨越。

关于中国区域抗战史研究的几个问题--以晋察冀边区与河北省域抗战史研究为例

构建中国区域抗战史的理论体系与架构体系及其立论视角与研究方法,是中国区域抗战史研究亟待解决的共性问题。中国抗日战争所具有的“两重性质”即抗日与民主(反帝,并伴随着反封建)和“双重目的”即民族独立与建立新中国(争取民族独立,并伴随着开创新中国),决定了区域抗战的本质及其战略总目标(在抗战中改造旧社会,创造新社会),这是构建区域抗战史的理论体系与架构体系的关键所在。唯有站在中华民族抗战与中国未来前途的新视角、新高度,聚焦中华民族抗战与国内民主改革之关系,才能科学地构建区域抗战史的理论体系与架构体系,并在坚持唯物史观和正确抗战史观的同时,真正克服历史虚无主义与碎片化。

唐代中国西南边疆拓南、开南二城的建置考论

经过了天宝战争及随后的军事扩张,位于唐代中国西南边疆的南诏国在较短的时期先后建置了拓东、开南、镇西、宁北四个王国边境的重要治所城镇,其中开南城与拓南城的考释自元末以后已多现舛误,造成了史实混淆。事实上,唐代中国西南边疆的拓南城与开南城确为南诏国开拓建置的两座新城,而非“开南亦称拓南”,元末以后,“拓南”名号逐渐隐没于原地,同时被移置于“开南”地望,开始混用一起。厘清二城地望考释,不难发现拓南城的建置开拓了南诏国的西南辖境,开南城的建置开拓了南诏国的南境,从而把中原的“郡县制”文化辐射到了西南边境区域,客观上促进了区域内各民族的交往交流交融,奠定了唐代及后世中国西南边境、边界形成和发展的历史基础,为唐代中国西南边境区域各民族铸牢中华民族共同体意识做出了贡献。

革命课程话语的诞生——论中国共产党在陕甘宁边区的课程改革

中国共产党领导的陕甘宁边区的课程改革,创造性地建构了承载着红色文化的革命课程话语,其形成经历了全民族抗战的国防课程、提高质量的正规化课程、联系实际的本土化课程、转向文化知识的新型正规化课程四个历史阶段。革命课程话语的知识谱系与内涵集中地反映在政治、国文、历史三科之中,表现出贯穿唯物主义精神,促进语言文字大众化,以人民为社会历史的创造者等价值取向。革命课程话语的文化实践与价值意蕴体现在充分发挥育人价值,发扬人的主体自觉性;推动民族解放与独立,形成民族认同;造就民族国家共同体,并提供强大的精神动力;承载红色文化,形成革命的优良传统,探索出了一条本土化的中国课程道路。

云南边疆民族地区体育旅游资源开发的问题与思考

云南省地处中国西南边疆,是世界上少有的多民族群体、多文化形态共生带,体育旅游资源具有鲜明的民族性、地域性、多样性和群体性。其基本特性与体育旅游的“具身性”本质相吻合,富有旅游开发价值。但是,在实际开发中仍存在整体开发不够充分、与已成形资源匹配不佳、产品缺乏文化内涵和市场引导不足等问题。需要立足边疆民族体育文化特性进行深度开发,不断提升边疆民族体育旅游产品文化附加值,形成具有持久生命力、竞争力的体育旅游品牌。

话语转变与政治动员——论陕甘宁文艺运动中的“下乡入伍”

“下乡入伍”是抗战时期的一项重要文化政策和实践。与重口号宣传而轻组织动员的国统区大后方相比,在中国共产党领导下的陕甘宁边区,“下乡入伍”作为延安知识分子了解、反映边区军民生活的重要途径,不仅得到了边区机关、学校及各类协会的高度重视和有效组织,成为陕甘宁文艺运动的一个部分;更因为延安文艺座谈会的召开划分为各具特征的前后两期,在起到知识分子话语转变作用的同时,也对边区军民民族、国家意识的培养及其对中国共产党意识形态、政策制度的接受认可方面,发挥出巨大的政治动员效应。
