Beyond economic performance
This meta-analysis synthesizes evidence from 67 empirical studies to investigate the relationship between performance metrics and cadre promotion in China, advancing theoretical debates about tournament mechanisms in authoritarian regimes. The study yields three principal findings: First, economic performance exhibits robust and consistent positive associations with promotion across all administrative levels, regions, and political identities; se…
From intention to action
This study contributes to the debate about effective regulatory strategies for environmental regulation in achieving sustainable agriculture, particularly in understudied emerging economies. We leverage the case of swine manure recovery in China to illuminate this crucial but under‐researched context. Building on the theory of planned behavior, which posits a gap between intention and behavior, we investigate how these regulations and their combi…
Evolution of WHO Covid-19 mask guidelines amid intense demands for rapid advice
During a health emergency, there is an urgent need to rapidly develop guidelines that meet minimum quality standards, as exemplified by the development of WHO guidelines on mask use in health care and community settings during the COVID-19 pandemic. Between January 2020 and October 2023, WHO developed 21 guideline updates on the use of masks as part of infection prevention and control (IPC) practices. Guideline developers had to deal with an ever…
Specimen sharing for epidemic preparedness
We present a framework for a federated, virtual biorepository system (VBS) with locally collected and managed specimens, as a ‘global public good’ model based on principles of equitable access and benefit sharing. The VBS is intended to facilitate timely access to biological specimens and associated data for outbreak-prone infectious diseases to accelerate the development and evaluation of diagnostics, assess vaccine efficacy, and to support surv…
Why is green consumption easier said than done? Exploring the green consumption attitude-intention gap in China with behavioral reasoning theory
Many consumers have shown positive attitudes towards green consumption; however, these attitudes do not necessarily translate into intentions or behaviors. To analyze this attitude-intention and hence behavior gap, this paper employs behavioral reasoning theory which extends the traditional theory of planned behavior by including context-specific reasons, in addition to values and global motives as possible determinants of intentions and behavior…
Consumers’ Food Safety Risk Communication on Social Media Following the Suan Tang Zi Accident
There are many hidden safety hazards in homemade food due to an absence of food preparation and storage knowledge, and this has led to many food safety incidents. The purpose of this study was to explore the influencing factors of consumers' food risk communication behavior on social media in northeast China, using the protection motivation theory. We integrate the Suan Tang Zi food poisoning accident and the protection motivation theory to devel…
The limits to the internationalisation of regulation
This article empirically analyses enforcement strategies that characterise food safety regulations in China. It demonstrates that the Chinese government has deployed a dichotomous approach, resulting in very different regulations in its domestic and export food markets. The export food sector exhibits strong deterrent measures whereas regulation of domestic food markets is reactive and relies on persuasive approaches to enforcement. These variati…
Perceptions of communications sector regulatory performance in the East Asia and Pacific region
Horses for courses
This paper examines the evolution of China's food standard‐setting procedures from both domestic and international perspectives, particularly in the context of the internationalization of regulation. After the reform and opening‐up in 1978, state actors and leading enterprises monopolized the process of national food standard setting. With further participation in the global economy in the 21st century, China has become familiar with the internat…
A Serological Survey of Rural Dogs and Cats on the Southwestern Canadian Prairie for Zoonotic Pathogens
A large group in a district general hospital
This article describes a large group in a district general hospital serving a defined catchment area. Fifteen consecutive meetings were studied and three types of meeting were observed; manic meetings, depressed meetings and, thirdly, more balanced meetings not dominated by any powerful affect. The main topics discussed in the meetings included depression, illness, anxieties about treatment or recurrence, doctors, bereavement, loneliness, religio…
