A Brief Discussion on the Development of the Silk-Weaving Industry Along the “Southern Silk Road” in Yunnan

Ancient Yunnan was one of the most significant regions along China’s ancient“Southern Silk Road.”During the Nanzhao period(738–902)of the late Tang Dynasty,Yunnan’s silk-weaving industry underwent a qualitative leap as skilled silk craftsmen from the Bashu area migrated to Yunnan and introduced mulberry planting,silkworm breeding,and advanced silk-weaving techniques from Sichuan to the region.Consequently,people in Yunnan gradually acquired expertise in brocade weaving and embroidery.Many even mastered complex silk-weaving techniques.The development and progress of the silk-weaving industry in the ancient Yunnan region were intricately linked to the economic function and value of silk as both a commodity and currency along the“Southern Silk Road.”The local government in ancient Yunnan was greatly motivated by the economic interests brought by the development of silk-related industries and recognized the significance of developing the local silk industry.They even initiated a campaign to capture skilled silk craftsmen from Sichuan,aiming to foster the growth of the silk-weaving industry in Yunnan.After years of dedicated efforts from the local government in ancient Yunnan,the region emerged as a significant hub for silk production along China’s ancient“Southern Silk Road.”Despite the devastation caused by the wars in other parts of the country,Yunnan’s silk industry continued to thrive and provide ample silk products to sustain trade along this renowned route.In the contemporary era,amidst the decline of the silk-weaving industry in eastern China,Yunnan has proposed an industrial development strategy known as“relocating the silk-weaving industry from east to west.”This involves introducing advanced silk production techniques from the eastern regions into Yunnan to enhance and enrich its local silk industry,thereby establishing it as a traditional national sector and securing a competitive position within the global silk market.The historical experience of Yunnan’s silk industry demonstrated that economic development opportunities can only be seized through proactive endeavors rather than passive anticipation.The modern Yunnan silk industry,which upholds its historical traditions,continues to actively engage in international high-end technical cooperation,thus ensuring the enduring vitality of the ancient“Southern Silk Road.”

The Development of the Deprived Urban and Rural Areas, Ingrained with the Tourist Attractions (with an Emphasis on the Silk Road)

Around the year 140 BC the Evo, the famous imperial Han Dynasty took power in China and then sent some representatives to the western land in order to communicate with the West in addition to know the political, military, geographical, economic and cultural situations of that region, it provides the basis for opening the way to the West. In this regard, they traveled to Iran and accordingly the formal relations were established between the Iranian and the Western governments and finally the Silk Road with a distance of about 8000 km has been emerged and started from the East and ended to Mediterranean Sea in the West. The aim of this study is to show that the Silk Road links throughout the world and its people together in thousands of years and the countries, cities and villages located in this road have been affected by developments or had affected and vivifying of it will lead to develop of the deprived urban and rural areas according to the abundant tourist attractions. This study which has used the historical and analytical method with practical purpose shows that cultural, scientific, religious and commercial exchanges between East and West were wide and many cities and villages were profiting of this gift. In this regard, vivifying of this road will lead to grow the underserved urban and rural areas according to many tourist attractions of the cities and villages.

A Brief Analysis of the Migration of Silk Weaving Craftsmen and the Spread of Silk Weaving Techniques in the Ancient Bashu Area along the Southern Silk Road

During ancient times,silk weaving techniques already matured in the Bashu area and“Shu Satin”silk products were widely known.Shu Satin not only performed as a high-quality commodity in the Northern Silk Road trade activities,but also conveyed cultural and social significance.Credit for the importance of Shu Satin must go to the extraordinary weavers in the Bashu area.The migration and circulation of these weavers spread the exquisite brocade and sericulture techniques throughout and beyond the Bashu area,and accelerated brocade and sericulture techniques in ancient southern China,Myanmar,and Vietnam.Accordingly,the Southern Silk Road can be seen as a path to disseminate the silk weaving techniques that originated in the Bashu area.This paper takes the migration of Shu Satin as its mainline and discusses how the weaving craftsmen spread the brocade and sericulture techniques throughout southern China during their travels and migrations,and the immeasurable contributions these craftsmen made to economic and trade activities along the ancient Southern Silk Road.This paper explores the technical accumulation and dissemination of brocade craftsmen in the Bashu area from three perspectives.The first perspective is the accumulation period of the ancient silk weaving techniques-the inflow of craftsmen from central China and the development and integration of the sericulture and silk weaving techniques in the Bashu area.The second is the technique dissemination period,centered on the silk weaving craftsmen in the Chengdu region of the Bashu area.The third is the techniques’outmigration period and the migration and circulation of craftsmen throughout the Bashu area.This paper strives to outline the dynamic lines that the Bashu silk weaving craftsmen created and the spread of their exquisite weaving techniques during their migration and circulation.This will illustrate that the ancient Southern Silk Road was not only a trade and cultural exchange zone for ancient silk commodities,but more importantly,it was a dynamic space for the dissemination and development of brocade weaving techniques.

Teleconnection between Sea Ice in the Barents Sea in June and the Silk Road,Pacific–Japan and East Asian Rainfall Patterns in August

In contrast to previous studies that have tended to focus on the influence of the total Arctic sea-ice cover on the East Asian summer tripole rainfall pattern, the present study identifies the Barents Sea as the key region where the June sea-ice variability exerts the most significant impacts on the East Asian August tripole rainfall pattern, and explores the teleconnection mechanisms involved. The results reveal that a reduction in June sea ice excites anomalous upward air motion due to strong near-surface thermal forcing, which further triggers a meridional overturning wave-like pattern extending to midlatitudes.Anomalous downward motion therefore forms over the Caspian Sea, which in turn induces zonally oriented overturning circulation along the subtropical jet stream, exhibiting the east–west Rossby wave train known as the Silk Road pattern. It is suggested that the Bonin high, a subtropical anticyclone predominant near South Korea, shows a significant anomaly due to the eastward extension of the Silk Road pattern to East Asia. As a possible descending branch of the Hadley cell, the Bonin high anomaly ultimately triggers a meridional overturning, establishing the Pacific–Japan pattern. This in turn induces an anomalous anticyclone and cyclone pair over East Asia, and a tripole vertical convection anomaly meridionally oriented over East Asia. Consequently, a tripole rainfall anomaly pattern is observed over East Asia. Results from numerical experiments using version 5 of the Community Atmosphere Model support the interpretation of this chain of events.

Construction of Silk Road Economic Belt and Industrial Selection of Minority Areas in Northwest China

Construction of Silk Road Economic Belt is a giant engine for the economic upgrading of China.Minority areas in Northwest China since then has become a forward position for the opening to the west,which is extremely significant for expanding the hinterland of Chinese economic development,activating economic development in inland and border areas,promoting the open economic development in central and west China,and also forming a new growth pole of Chinese economy.Optimization of industrial selection can promote economic development,constant economic growth of the northwest minority areas and the construction of Silk Road Economic Belt requires the optimization and adjustment of industrial selection,cultivation of competitive industries with market prospects,and formation of new economic growth points.Minority areas in northwest China have a vast territory and abundant resources that are all powerful support for the development of local competitive industries.

Searching for Chinese Medicinal Plants in Greek Classical Medicine: A First Approach

This article examines the presence and uses of plants attested in the Chinese medical tradition in the materia medica literature of classical antiquity.It is based on the consultation of the major ancient compilations on materia medica of Chinese medicine and classical antiquity,specifically Bencao Gangmu by Li Shizhen(16th cent.)and De materia medica by Dioscorides(1st cent.A.D.).The article is divided in three major parts:the identification of plants used in the Chinese medical tradition in the medicine of the Mediterranean World in Antiquity;the analysis of the knowledge of these plants and their origin in classical antiquity;a comparison of the uses of these plants in the Bencao Gangmu and De materia medica.It traces the presence of plants of the Chinese medical tradition in Classical antiquity.Although their exact origin was not known,they were reputed at that time to be native to either India or the Black Sea,two areas that correspond to the ending points of the Silk Road.As for their uses in both traditions,they correspond for some plants,whereas they do not for others because either the uses attested in the Chinese tradition were not preserved on the Mediterranean or different uses appeared in the Mediterranean tradition.These differentiated uses hint at both continuities and ruptures,with the latter resulting from the long journey of the plants from the Chinese World to the Mediterranean and,at the same time,attempts aimed to diversify and optimize the applications of non-native medicinal substances.

13—14世纪黑海贸易兴衰论析

13—14世纪,经黎凡特地区的欧亚商贸路线中断后,黑海成为东西方贸易往来的重要枢纽。随着拜占庭帝国势力的衰颓,帝国在黑海地区政治统治趋于瓦解。来自热那亚等地的意大利商人开始活跃于黑海区域,并在沿岸各地陆续建立起卡法等商业据点。依托着所谓“蒙古和平”的大趋势,商人们开拓了向东方的新贸易路线,促使黑海港口逐渐成为远程贸易与地区间贸易的重要中转站。这一时期黑海贸易的繁荣与东西方商贸路线的北移,印证了前现代时期世界性市场存在与发展,展现了亚欧大陆频繁而深刻的跨区域互动关系。

我国在“冰上丝绸之路”行使航行权的困境及出路

当前部分北极沿岸国依据《联合国海洋法公约》“冰封区域条款”,在“冰上丝绸之路”制定特殊航行管制措施,限制他国船舶行使航行权。这些特殊航行管制措施超越了《联合国海洋法公约》的适用范围,违反了适当顾及义务。《国际极地水域营运船舶规则》是“冰封区域条款”的重要补充,是我国在“冰上丝绸之路”行使航行权的法律依据之一。为保障在“冰上丝绸之路”的航行权,我国可以在三个层面加以应对:首先,在联合国体系下积极参与国际航行规则的制定;其次,通过北极理事会等区域平台参与“冰上丝绸之路”建设;最后,加强与北极沿岸国的合作与对话,共建“冰上丝绸之路”。

共建“冰上丝绸之路”下北方航道利用环境与安全法律规制协调研究

中俄共建“冰上丝绸之路”是中俄合作在新时期面临的新机遇。北方航道是“冰上丝绸之路”倡议的重要组成部分。在两国建交75周年之际,中俄有望进一步根据双方联合声明培育共建“冰上丝绸之路”合作新动能。俄罗斯有关北方航道利用的国内法存在海洋环境保护法律规制与航行安全保障法律规制之间不协调的情况。这种不协调影响了包括中国在内北极利益攸关方便利利用北方航道。在中俄总理定期会晤委员会机制框架下成立的中俄北极航道合作分委会,有助于在中俄之间达成协调北方航道利用的环境与安全法律规制的外交共识。这种外交共识一旦达成后,中国可进一步考虑与俄罗斯共同促成双向互惠安排,以在中俄之间实现北方航道利用的海洋环境保护与航行安全保障法律规制的协调。此类双向互惠安排可涉及北方航道破冰引航、北方航道航行许可发放、北方航道航行海事信息汇报、港口国检查、上下俄罗斯籍船舶许可的发放、登临检查等方面。中国从北方航道基础设施建设、船舶技术和建造合作、融资支持、执法合作等方面全方位参与北方航道建设,有助于最大程度确保中俄双向互惠安排的达成与落实。

中国有效参与北极规则塑造的“低政治性”话语权场域与路径研究

依据场域理论,北极规则塑造难题反映的是北极的利益分野、叙事身份的“自我—他者”对抗以及新规构建的复杂性。我国应当将目光转向法律性强的“低政治性”议题,寻求构筑新的话语场域。目前,北极“低政治性”领域的规则塑造的不足包括:区域与多边治理的区隔与排斥、制度性全球公共产品供给缺陷、区域内外规则的非融合性与不协调性、“高政治性”规则传导影响“低政治性”规则等。中国应当构建新型的“冰上丝绸之路”话语场域,在不同规则塑造环境中分述“自我”身份,包括以合作者身份促进规则多边化转移、以主导者身份推动通用性规则移植,以主要提供者身份供给全球公共产品,倡导非北极国家优惠条款,以及善意解释“高政治性”规则等。

省域一体化背景下海丝核心区港口连通性研究

应用复杂网络理论,选取网络拓扑特征和度中心性、加权度中心性和介数中心性等指标,搜集2021年第四季度全球班轮公司的1766条航线构建航运网络,从海丝核心区航运网络整体连通程度和港口节点在连通海丝沿线航运网络中起到的重要性程度两个维度研究海丝核心区港口的连通性。结果表明,海丝核心区港口与海丝沿线港口有较为频繁的航线往来,厦门港在海丝核心区居于引领地位;海丝核心区港口对海丝沿线港口的航线联系的广度和深度在我国沿海处于中等水平,海丝沿线7个区域的航运互联互通对海丝核心区港口的依赖程度存在较大差异。为此,未来航线业务拓展要注重利用枢纽港的辐射效应,重点与连通性强的省份开展港口合作,不断提升海丝核心区的国际影响力。

海上丝绸之路文化遗产认知对粤港澳大湾区认同的影响——文化特质的中介作用

粤港澳大湾区是中国古代海上丝绸之路的发祥地。实施以大湾区青年群体为对象的问卷调查,运用结构方程模型方法,探讨大湾区青年对海丝遗产认知及其对文化特质与地方认同的影响。研究表明:(1)文化交流类遗产认知对大湾区认同有直接正向影响,但港口航道类和传统技艺类遗产认知的影响不显著;(2)开放性特质和乐观性特质对大湾区认同具有直接影响,但重商性对大湾区认同的直接影响不明显;(3)文化特质在遗产认知与地方认同之间起部分中介作用,利用文化特质的中介作用促进遗产认知转化为地方认同,在海丝遗产保护利用过程中是切实可行的。
