Scale Challenges in Ecological Transitions: Smallholders, State and Enterprises in Southeast China's Tea Sector
Smallholders are commonly viewed as key supporters of ecological agriculture. Paradoxically, in a tea-producing county in Southeast China, local policies aimed at promoting ecological practices failed to engage smallholders and instead ended up favouring large producers. Using Anxi County's pesticide crisis as a case study, this paper analyses barriers to smallholder participation in ecological transitions through a scale framework examining thre…

Model Fit Indices for Random Effects Models: Translating Model Fit Ideas from Latent Growth Curve Models
The latent growth curve modeling (LGM) and random effects modeling (REM) frameworks are analytically and empirically equivalent for intrinsically linear models and used interchangeably for intrinsically nonlinear models. However, while LGM provides overall model fit indices, REM does not. Overall model fit indices are useful because they evaluate how well a specified model fits data. This paper proposes to translate model fit concepts from LGM to…
Visualising energy technologies and environment nexus: Re-examining the importance of technologies for emerging economies
Decarbonising the energy industry is an essential aim due to recent environmental disasters and the continued impacts of global warming. Energy technology (E.T.), research and development, and technical innovation are critical to successfully transitioning from fossil fuels to renewables. The current study investigates the role of E.T., renewable electricity output (R.E.T.), R&D expenditures (R.A.D.), technological innovation (T.E.I.) and gross d…
Sustainable green financial system perspective of environmental protection investment and the government’s environmental policy or public participation: Evidence from Chinese A-share listed companies
Corporate environmental protection investment (EPI) is one of the ways to accelerate green development. This paper develops a theoretical model of EPI focusing on three factors: the government, the public, and the enterprises. It uses data from A-share listed Chinese companies from 2008 to 2014 to analyse the effects of the government environmental policy and public participation on the corporate EPI. Results of this research show that both the e…

Self-medication behaviors with OTC drugs were prevalent in China, and consideration factors of medical insurance reimbursement or drug prices were related to socio-demographic characteristics and health literacy. There is a need to take measures to reduce the economic burden of self-medication, improve the health literacy of residents and strengthen public health education
Sustainable development via environmental taxes and efficiency in energy: Evaluating trade adjusted carbon emissions
Sustainable development goals are one of the key targets to achieve for many countries across the globe. The current study aims to determine the impact of economic development and global commerce, specifically by considering trade separately, energy efficiency, and environmental levies on consumption‐based carbon emissions (CCO2) for the G‐7 countries between 1990 and 2020. This research used slope‐heterogeneity and cross‐section dependency to de…
Femvertising and Postfeminist Discourse: Advertising to Break Menstrual Taboos in China
This article investigates three commercials for Libresse sanitary napkins that aired in China in the transnational brand’s marketing to counter menstrual taboos. Employing feminist critical discourse analysis (CDA), we interpret Libresse’s efforts in China as exemplary of the appropriation of femvertising, or women’s empowerment advertising. Our findings indicate that Libresse’s commercials attempted to eschew explicit menstrual stereotypes and t…
From the main-melody story to gaming experience: Is the Chinese digital game arena a potential counterpublic sphere
This article interrogates the possibility that the digital game arena plays a role as a ‘counterpublic sphere’ where alternative voices that violate the hegemonic narratives in the mainstream media culture can be expressed.
