HowChinesephilosophy“innovates”:areviewoftheMethodologyof“innovatingbycomplyingwiththeroot”

HuangYushun5

As a methodology for the modernization of Chinese Philosophy,Prof.Cheng Zhihua proposes “to innovate by complying with the root” that is different from Neo-Confucianism’s “to innovate by returning to the root”.It could be summarized in the four steps:exploring the way (the study of Neo-Confucianism); complying with the root (the study of the ancient Chinese philosophy);seeking the common (to compare philosophies of China and the West) and innovating (to construct a philosophical theory).He has constructed a Chinese philosophical ontology of “one noumenon with two forms” or “one noumenon with three forms”.Prof.Cheng’s approach of “to innovate by complying with the root” is important for the modern development of Chinese philosophy.Of course,the deeper reason needs “to trace to the source”,i.e.to reveal the transformation of social lifestyle as the source.

Anewroundofworld-widetaxreduction:Characteristics,impactsandresponses

YuanHongying20

Theoretically,there are different types of tax reduction:periodic,institutional,competitive and transferring tax reductions.With different mechanism of action,they can interweave and transform each other under specific conditions.In the new normal situation that the economic growth in all countries slows,structural tax reduction,which focuses on reducing tax rate,expanding tax base,simplifying tax system and reducing costs,has become the basic trend in world tax system reform.The current round of world tax reduction has characteristics that institutional tax reduction and cyclical tax reduction superpose,impartial tax reduction and transferring tax reduction coexist and competitive tax reduction outstands,which has a profound impact on the taxation and economic development both at home and abroad.In order to cope with the world-wide tide of tax reduction,China should aim at establishing a modern tax system and,based on strengthening the financial risk control,speed up the optimization of fiscal expenditure structure,tax structure and tax structure,effectively improve the international competitiveness of China's tax system,and strive to create a high standard and legal business environment.

WangSulian50

Based on the enterprise resource theory and upper echelons theory and using 515 listed small and medium firms,the paper studies the relations among entrepreneurs’ risk-preference and education,firm’s R&D investment and innovation performance with method of hierarchical regression.It also analyzes the technological innovation differences between family and state-owned firms.It finds out that firm’s innovation performance is positively related to the entrepreneurs’ risk-preference and R&D investment.Entrepreneurs’ risk-preference is a semi adjustable variable in the relationship between firm’s R&D investment and innovation performance,especially for the entrepreneurs who have higher level education and more rational risk-preference.Moreover,there are significant differences between the family and state-owned enterprises concerning the moderating effect of entrepreneurs’ risk-preference and education on firm’s R&D investment and innovation performance.

Theevolutionarygameofbankingbehavioralregulation:Ananalysisbasedonprospecttheory

YuTaoYuXiaoran76

Considering the mechanism of banking behavioral regulation,the paper builds an asymmetric game model between the regulatory authorities and banking institutions,studies the replicator dynamics and evolutionary stability of the improvement of their strategies,finds out four necessary conditions and key factors to eliminate dishonest behaviors of banking institutions,analyses the impact mechanism of the factors with Matlab simulation,proposes the strategy to improve banking behavioral regulation.The paper concludes that,because of bounded rationality,dishonest behaviors of banking institutions are hard to eliminate;however,it will work by reducing the cost of honest behavior and behavioral regulation,increasing banking institutions’ perception of regulatory punishment and social costs and paying more attention to behavioral regulation and regulatory punishment.

All the studies ofTheNovelMonthlyin 1910-1920,without exception,pay special attention to the classical Chinese short storiesNostalgiawhose signature is “Zhou Zhuo”.Besides the value of this short stories itself,another reason isNostalgiais written by Lu Xun.Most of the existing studies,when citing and analyzing Nostalgia,are based onTheCompleteWorksofLuXunwhile not onTheNovelMonthly.It causes some questions in the history of the interpretation ofNostalgia. To studyNostalgiawith the historical context and textual form provided byTheNovelMonthlyand to study the short stories written by Lu Xun and the comments and excursus written by Yun Tieqiao as a whole are conducive not only to the explanation of the textual features and the value of literary history ofNostalgiamore effectively,but also to the study on Lu Xun.

“Chinathreat”andtheconstructionofculturalcommunicationforce

——Viewd from the reports of China in Japanese media

WuGuangheng150

Since 21st century,the reports of China in Japanese media have presented a convergence awareness of “China threat” as the ultimate goal.In order to achieve this goal,all kinds of the reports of China in Japanese media build an atmosphere,by imagination and even fabrication,of “China threat” that China challenges the world order,attacks the global economy and interferes with regional pattern.On the one hand,we need to uphold the world trend of peace and development and strive to improve ourselves.On the one hand,it is also important to grasp the potential intention of Japanese media,to develop discourse criticism and image publicity and to strengthen the construction of China's cultural communication force.The construction should be done from the three aspects:to upgrade the of the ability of agenda setting in cultural communication,to cultivate the narrative skills in cultural communication and to enhance the ability of integrative communication in cultural communication.

OntheJustificationandLegitimacyoftheAffirmativeAction

——Over the Practice of United States

YaoTianQiYanping166

In order to provide better protection for the equal rights of minorities,the United States began to implement affirmative action since the 1960s.However,while giving the minorities preferential treatments in college enrolment and public project bidding,the policy has been questioned about its justification and legitimacy by people who consider affirmative action as”reverse discrimination”.Firstly,by discussing the moral individualism behind reverse discrimination on the philosophical level,the paper discusses whether affirmative action is reverse discrimination.Then,it discusses whether affirmative action violates the citizen’s inherent rights on from the perspective of right.Finally,it discusses whether affirmative action violates the equal public policy protected by U.S.constitution from the perspective of procedural justice. These analyses indicate that it is untenable to think affirmative action is unjustifiable and illegal only because it may be suspected of causing reverse discrimination.
