Spatio-temporal Pattern Characteristics of Relationship Between Urbanization and Economic Development at County Level in China

The relationship between China’s urbanization and economic development(RCUED) is an important concern nationwide. As important actors in regional strategy and policy, county-level regions have played an increasingly significant role in the development of China’s social economy. However, the existing research on the RCUED lacks the fine depiction of the county-level administrative units.Using 2000 and 2010 census data and the statistical analysis method, we uncovered the evolution characteristics of China’s urbanization and economic development and conducted a quantitative identification for the RCUED with improved methods using the quadrant map approach. In addition, we investigated the spatial correlation effect of the RCUED using the spatial autocorrelation analysis method. The results were as follows: 1) In general, a high degree of matching exists between China’s urbanization and economic development at the county level at the significance level of 0.01. The correlation coefficients between China’s urbanization and economic development in2000 and 2010 were 0.608 and 0.603, respectively. 2) A significant regional difference exists in the RCUED at the county level. Based on a comparative analysis of 2276 county units in China in the two years, we found that county units can be categorized as under-urbanized, basic coordination and over-urbanized in various areas. No situation was observed where urbanization seriously lagged behind the economic development level, so the levels of urbanization and economic development appear to be basically coordinated,and the coordination state may be gradually optimized over time. 3) Over time, the spatial dependency of the RCUED has weakened and the spatial heterogeneity has increased. Northeast China has always been an area characterized by over-urbanization. The number of county units classified as under-urbanized has begun to decline in eastern coastal urban agglomeration areas, while counties rich in resources have transformed from having point-shaped over-urbanization to plane-shaped under-urbanization along the northern border,and the number of over-urbanized county units has increased in the middle reaches of the Yangtze River. 4)’Lag-lag’ type and ’advance-advance’ type accounted for 68% of all counties in China, and these counties were shown to have obvious spatial differentiation characteristics.

Analysis of Economic Cooperation between China, USA, Japan, and ASEAN

Since China’s Belt and Road Initiative was introduced,the rapid development of China–ASEAN economic cooperation has aroused suspicion from the United States and Japan,nations that have been cooperating with Southeast Asia for a long time.Through comparative analysis,this paper draws a conclusion that the cooperation between China and ASEAN has rapidly grown in trade volume,tourism,infrastructure construction,and other fields,but its advantages in some fields are not yet apparent,and there is no evidence of crowding out the United States and Japan overall.The United States and Japan have been adjusting policies toward ASEAN in a targeted manner,while ASEAN countries do not completely depend on China,establishing a balance in foreign economic cooperation between great powers.Therefore,the economic cooperation between China,the United States,Japan,and ASEAN is experiencing a dynamic adjustment process in long-term competition that is unlikely to lead to exclusive monopoly circumstances.

Analyzing the Implications of Japan and the Republic of Korea Joining AUKUS for Asia and China

The potential inclusion of Japan and the Republic of Korea in the AUKUS(Australia,the United Kingdom,and the United States)trilateral security pact has sparked extensive debate and speculation regarding its implications for Asia’s delicate geopolitical dynamics and the region’s relationship with China.This essay explores the multifaceted consequences of such a development,analyzing its effects on the regional security architecture,economic ties,and the intricate network of alliances and rivalries.Employing a mixed-methods approach that integrates qualitative analysis of expert opinions with quantitative assessments of economic and military data,the study seeks to provide a comprehensive understanding of the potential ramifications.The findings indicate that while AUKUS expansion could enhance deterrence against perceived threats,it may also escalate tensions,disrupt economic interdependencies,and trigger a regional arms race.The essay emphasizes the importance of nuanced diplomacy and dialogue to address these challenges and preserve regional stability.

JAPAN＇S READJUSTMENT OF CHINA POLICY AND DEVELOPMENT TREND OF CHINA-JAPAN RELATIONSHIP

China-Japan Relationship is a very special bilateral tie in international relations since it＇s a matter of regional peace and stability. The Abe administration has long pursued a ＂bet-hedging＂ strategy towards China. Although it claims that it attaches great importance to the ties between Japan and China, it pursues ＂Strategic Diplomacy＂ and ＂Value-oriented Diplomacy＂ to hype up the so-called ＂China Threat＂ in international community. It not only makes China-Japan relations to continuously fall into a vicious circle of＂repeated deterioration＂, but also become an uncertainty for peace and stability in East Asia and the regional security. In addition, it reflects the ＂diplomacy dilemma＂ of the Abe administration＇s China policy.

The provincial pattern of the relationship between urbanization and economic development in China

Understanding the relationship between China＇s urbanization and economic de- velopment on a provincial scale is of profound theoretical and practical significance. Based on data from 124 countries or regions throughout the world and 31 provinces or autonomous regions in China, applying improved methods using the quadrant map approach, this paper analyzed the spatial pattern of the relationship between China＇s urbanization and economic development level. The study identified the following results. （1） The 31 province-level re- gions fall into six categories： only one region is in the category of sharp over-urbanization, 3 regions are in medium over-urbanization, 11 slight over-urbanization, 8 basic coordination, one medium under-urbanization, and seven slight under-urbanization. （2） There are signifi- cant regional differences on a provincial scale in the relationships between urbanization and the level of economic development. （3） The provincial pattern of urbanization and economic development is significantly different between east and west. The eastern coastal areas are mainly over-urbanized, while the central and western regions are mainly under-urbanized. （4） The relationship between urbanization and the level of economic development is similar to the Matthew effect. Hence, two important insights are proposed. First, the phenomenon of over-urbanization in some developed regions should be viewed with some concern and vigi- lance. Second, urbanization needs to be speeded up moderately in the central and western regions.

世界大变局下日本供应链安全政策调整及对中国的启示

在新冠疫情影响深重、中美战略竞争激化、乌克兰危机深化、巴以冲突升级的背景下,全球供应链正经历着百年未有之大变局。日本作为世界第三大经济体,针对本国供应链的脆弱,多次召开“经济安全保障会议”制定供应链保护政策,使得供应链布局发生了从“追求效率最优”向增强“供应链韧性和可持续性”的转变。与此同时,日本还强化了与以美国为首的盟国在经济安全问题上的合作。日本的供应链政策调整,使得中国可能面临高技术领域技术空缺、日企对华投资减少、中日供应链“脱钩”等风险。中国企业应在增强透明度、提升人才培养能力和创新水平以及加强与其他国家、国际组织合作等方面,继续探索本国经济安全保障的可行路径。中日两国只有加强合作与交流,共同应对供应链安全等问题,才能维护全球供应链的稳定和促进共同发展。

东北亚安全发展问题探析

东北亚各国经济相互依存,产业链供应链向横向与纵向深化,形成地区生产网络,构成了地区安全发展的价值轴。当前全球层面的大国竞争与“阵营化”投射至东北亚,日本和韩国追随美国“去风险”及“脱钩断链”,导致地区合作停滞且信任赤字不断累积,成为制约东北亚地区稳定繁荣的重要因素。以经济发展为中心是“一条和平发展的道路”,地区国家要看到安全发展的史之大、市之大、势之大、实之大、失之大,树立正确的历史观、大局观和角色观,更多从发展角度思考如何用地区新安全格局保障地区新发展格局,探索和重塑地区价值观,构建地区生产力和生产关系大发展的文化根基。

抗战胜利前夕黄炎培政治倾向研究——以《黄炎培日记》为中心

1945年年初,国内外形势急剧变化,抗战胜利的曙光隐现,民主的呼声日益高涨。彼时国共双方就是否建立民主联合政府等问题进行了多轮磋商。作为民盟领导人,彼时黄炎培多次在报纸上发表宣言表明态度,通过邀餐、座谈等形式促进国共双方谈判代表深入交流,敦促国民政府接受组建民主联合政府的主张,以期实现国共两党和平共处与民主建国。黄炎培在日记中较完整地记录了抗战胜利前夕其政治倾向在调和国共两党关系的活动中而逐渐转变的过程。在这一过程中,黄炎培不断加深对国共两党政治主张的认识,而延安之行让他就民主团结等问题与中共领导人深入交流,同时亲身体验到中共的政治作风和延安的欣欣向荣景象,将国共两党进行直观的对比,从而对中共的好感逐渐增加,政治上也逐步倾向中共。

跨国要素视角下的日本对华供应链政策——以商品、资本、信息和科技人员为例

自2020年安倍晋三提出“供应链改革”以来,岸田文雄内阁将供应链韧性政策作为经济安全保障政策的一部分,并大力调整中日供应链。其中日本调整四个跨国要素时着重基于安全外部性调整了中日高科技产业合作。此外,在调整对华供应链合作时,日本在美日外交层面和日本国内政治层面针对商品、资本、信息和科技人员四个跨国要素同时加强了对中日供应链的管控。我国应结合国际局势和日本国内政治局势研判其对华供应链政策走向,并考虑如何在对外经济合作中规避来自日本政府的政治风险。

中国对日本农产品出口贸易发展的特征、问题及政策建议

自2001年以来中国对日本农产品出口贸易总体保持较快增长,产品种类数量增加,日本长期位居中国农产品出口贸易国别市场第一位,对中国农产品出口贸易发展具有十分重要的影响。然而,近年来中国对日本农产品出口贸易合作发展中仍存在总量相对不足、增势趋于放缓、后劲较为乏力、产品种类数量拓展有限、结构不够合理、合作层次偏低、贸易互补性减弱、频遭贸易壁垒和外部竞争持续加剧等问题。新时期,中国应以《区域全面经济伙伴关系协定》(RCEP)建设为重要契机,加速推进国内农业经济转型升级,完善农产品质检体系,增强农产品的国际竞争力;推动中日两国农业战略对接,完善双边合作机制;拓展产品种类数量,积极培育贸易新增长点,以增扩数量来调整结构;促进双边贸易自由化与便利化谈判,推进互联互通基础设施建设,优化农产品物流配送体系,创新贸易合作方式,推广跨境电商业务,实现对日本农产品出口贸易高质量可持续发展。

日本自民党“文教族”与中日第一次教科书事件

1980年代以后,日本自由民主党逐渐培养出了一批熟悉特定政策领域的“族议员”,在决策过程中发挥了重要作用。1982年中日第一次教科书事件爆发后,自民党“文教族”由于保守右翼的政治立场和对所谓“教育主权”的坚持,立场极端强硬;自民党领导层和外交相关议员则认为在教科书问题上应当采取更加灵活的态度。党内双方通过非正式接触和正式会议,最终兼顾双方意见,出台了两年后重新审定教科书、重视与邻国友好的方案,获得了中方谅解。在中日第一次教科书事件的决策过程中,可以看到“族议员”已经占据了中心位置,只有获得其肯定,相关决策才可能推行。

民国时期日本对上海渔业侵略的历史探究

民国时期日本对我国渔业资源的侵略不仅有渔轮大肆侵捕,倾销到上海鱼市场的直接侵渔,还有辗转浏河等其他港口运入上海,由鱼行代售的隐蔽侵渔方式。面对日本对我国渔业的侵略和破坏,国民政府采取与日本公使外交交涉、划定领海界线以及制定航行禁令限制日本渔轮等措施,民间也自发成立上海渔业仇货检查委员会等组织来抵制日本侵渔,然而国民政府采取的措施无法从根本上杜绝日本侵渔,各项政策执行的效果大打折扣,民间自发打击日本侵渔的行动亦收效甚微,日本侵渔变本加厉。

部分中国原产甜柿种质的分子系统学研究

采用２５ 个随机引物对中日两国原产完全甜柿种质的ＲＡＰＤ 分析结果表明： （１）供试中国甜柿和日本甜柿是相对独立分化的两个居群， 中国甜柿的遗传多样性更为丰富； （２）在供试中国甜柿中， ‘罗田甜柿’的５ 个单株间的遗传组成的差异较小， 但与其它湖北甜柿和湘西甜柿间的差异较大； （３） ‘铜盆柿’与湖北甜柿间的相似指数较高， 说明二者有某种亲缘关系； （４） 湘西甜柿与供试日本甜柿间的亲缘关系较近， 说明其可能来自日本或是与日本甜柿的起源有关。

1949年以来中国环境与发展关系的演变

从IPAT方程出发,发现了环境影响随着经济发展或时间的演变依次遵循三个"倒U型"曲线规律,即环境影响强度的倒U型曲线、人均环境影响的倒U型曲线和环境影响总量的倒U型曲线。根据此规律,可以将该演化过程划分为四个阶段即:环境影响强度高峰前阶段、环境影响强度高峰到人均环境影响量高峰阶段、人均环境影响量高峰到环境影响总量高峰阶段以及环境影响总量稳定下降阶段。在环境演变的不同阶段,主要驱动力存在着明显的差异。在环境影响强度高峰前阶段,资源消耗或污染物排放增长更多地由资源或污染密集型技术进步驱动;在资源消耗或污染物强度高峰到人均资源消耗或污染物排放高峰阶段,主要由经济增长驱动;而在人均资源消耗或污染物排放高峰到资源消耗或污染物排放总量高峰阶段以及总量高峰以后的发展阶段,则主要由节约高效技术或污染减排技术进步来驱动。实证分析表明,中国目前环境与发展关系基本上处于经济增长主要驱动的环境影响强度高峰向人均环境影响高峰过渡阶段,这同时意味着中国要在短期内实现人均环境影响和环境影响总量高峰的跨越是异常困难的。
