Platform Monopolies and Unearned Income in China and the U.S.—A Georgist Perspective
Over the past two decades, digital economic activity has experienced rapid development. In China, it accounts for 40% of GDP, with the number of internet and mobile users ranking among the highest in the world. In the United States, the digital economy accounted for only 10% of GDP when last measured in 2022, but it is growing rapidly. Although digital platforms represent a massive growth potential, they have a dark side. By leveraging economies …
Haewon-sangsaeng, Chinese Harmonism and Ecological Civilization
Haewon-sangsaeng is a key idea of Daesoon Jinrihoe, which, as Professor Bae Kyuhan points out, has broad applications.” Haewon-sangsaeng is not only congenial to Chinese Harmonism, but it also enriches this concept. However, many scholars understand Haewon-sangsaeng in a relatively narrow scope. For them, Haewon-sangsaeng is confined to pertaining only to human relationships. For example, Don Baker, the author of Korean Spirituality, states that …
The Dao of Oshin
TV soap operas are disdained by the elite class in modern society, but some of them are much welcomed by ordinary people. Oshin, a 1983 Japanese serialized morning television drama, captivated both audiences. This series reflects both social transformation and prevailing norms. It also actively participates in the creation of a new social atmosphere and a new concept of womanhood. The characterization of the central heroes and heroines in this se…
Disparaging vs. Recognizing the White Working Class in Friends, Desperate Housewives, and The Big Bang Theory
Manual labor is stigmatized in both China and the United States. There is a tendency to look down on those who perform physical labor. On American television, white working-class characters are often humiliated and mocked by upper-middle-class characters. The tradition of despising the working class is present in the situation comedy Friends. In Desperate Housewives, the same theme is present, but there is a shift in this series. The most likable…
Chinese Environmental Ethics and Whitehead’s Philosophy
Environmental ethics is a major topic of discussion and enactment in China. The government is committed to work toward an “ecological civilization,” a society in which concerns for a healthy natural environment are interwoven with concerns for a healthy human society and healthy human relations with nature. Whereas in the United States concern for the environment is rarely consciously philosophical, Chinese history has made people aware that phil…
Homelessness and the Universal Family in China
Depending on how one defines homelessness, China has either a very tiny homeless population or an extremely large one. Compared to other countries, there very few vagrants: people living on the streets of China's cities without means of support. But if one counts the people who migrated to cities without a legal permit (hukou), work as day laborers without job security or a company dormitory, and live in overcrowded and unsanitary conditions on t…
Ending an Era of Population Control in China
The one-child policy of China, which was initiated in 1980 and was reversed in 2015, has been conceived of as a decision made independently and arbitrarily or a product of impulsive decision making. Therefore, it has received a great deal of criticism from Western democracies. Of course, China faced internal problems related to population, such as the Great Famine of 1958-1961. This might be deemed the direct cause of the one-child policy. Howeve…
What Does Ecological Marxism Mean For China
Zhihe Wang's article "Ecological Marxism in China," which appeared in the February 2012 Monthly Review, demonstrated that Chinese interest in ecological Marxism has grown rapidly over the past two decades.... The practical, political, and theoretical reasons for its success include: pressing environmental issues facing China; the government's call for ecological civilization; the many characteristics that ecological Marxism shares with traditiona…
Ecological Marxism in China
Chinese interest in ecological Marxism has grown increasingly in the past twenty years. Amazingly, it has even become, to some extent, an important part of contemporary Marxism in China. But why has it been so well received? This paper will offer some reasons for this and also point out the challenges now facing ecological Marxism in China.This article can also be found at the Monthly Review website, where most recent articles are published in fu…
