  • Environmental R&D Risk Choices and Environmental Policies in a Mixed Duopoly

    Open Access•Weiwei Zhang, Hui Li et al.•ARTICLE•American Journal of Economics and…•2025

    This paper investigates how environmental policies—emission tax and emission standard—affect the optimal environmental R&D (ER&D) risk choices of firms in a mixed market. The results show that for the private firm, ER&D risk is lower (higher) under the emission tax than under the emission standard when consumer environmental awareness is low (high). For the public firm, ER&D risk is always higher under the emission tax than under the emission sta…

  • Ecological Discourse Analysis of the English Translations of Song of Peach Blossom Land from the Perspective of Transitivity

    Open Access•Haoqi He, Weiwei Zhang•ARTICLE•International Journal of English…•2024

    In light of the degradation of the ecological environment, linguists have integrated ecology with linguistics, giving rise to the emergence of ecolinguistics. Ecological Discourse Analysis (EDA), as a form of discourse analysis, serves as an analytical approach within the field of ecolinguistics. Considering that Systemic Functional Linguistics (SFL) can be applied in analyzing ecological discourses and acknowledging the existing differences betw…

  • Beyond dynasties and binary alternations: A diachronic corpus study of four-way variability in Chinese theme-recipient constructions

    Yi Li, Benedikt Szmrecsanyi et al.•ARTICLE•Folia Linguistica•2024

    Despite the vast body of literature on the historical development of the theme-recipient alternation (also known as the “dative” alternation) in Chinese, most studies that have been conducted so far are limited to philological recounts of the binary choice between the prepositional dative and the ditransitive dative across dynasties, which usually spanned centuries. Against this backdrop, we conduct a state-of-the-art variationist analysis of the…

  • Can local ecological knowledge establish conservation baselines for the Critically Endangered Blue‐crowned Laughingthrush

    Open Access•Rosalind A Gleave, Sarah Papworth et al.•ARTICLE•People and Nature•2024

    Designing conservation interventions for rare species can be hindered by a lack of relevant data. Local ecological knowledge (LEK) has potential to provide rapidly collected, cost‐effective data across large spatio‐temporal scales, but has rarely been used as a source of conservation‐relevant information for the Asian Songbird Crisis. The Blue‐crowned Laughingthrush ( Pterorhinus courtoisi ; BCLT) is a Critically Endangered passerine found only i…

  • Foreign-born emigration: A new approach and estimates based on matched CPS files

    Open Access•Jennifer Van Hook, Weiwei Zhang et al.•ARTICLE•Demography•2006•Cited by: 20•References: 12

    The utility of postcensal population estimates depends on the adequate measurement of four major components of demographic change: fertility, mortality, immigration, and emigration. Of the four components, emigration, especially of the foreign-born, has proved the most difficult to gauge. Without “direct” methods (i.e., methods identifying who emigrates and when), demographers have relied on indirect approaches, such as residual methods. Residual…

  • Emergent Ghettos: Black Neighborhoods in New York and Chicago, 1880-1940

  • Consumption, taste, and the economic transition in modern China

    Weiwei Zhang•ARTICLE•Consumption Markets & Culture•2020•Cited by: 6•References: 55

    Theories of the sociology of consumption tend to be Western-based and they are embedded in a sociocultural context. This article aims to explore how Veblen’s status-seeking model and Bourdieu’s concepts of cultural capital and habitus manifest themselves in post-socialist China. I also provide explanations for these nuances and, building on Eckhardt et al. (2015)’s work, I identify variations of conspicuous consumption in China. Based on my resea…
