Recalibrating internationalisation amid geopolitical shifts: Institutional responses of two Chinese Double First-Class universities
Geopolitical shifts are profoundly reshaping global higher education. As some Western countries turn inward, China maintains openness as a long-term national priority, rendering its higher education system a critical site for observing institutional responses amid geopolitical tensions. In this context, a comparative case study of two Chinese Double First-class universities, one science and engineering-oriented and the other comprehensive, was co…
Policy-Driven Dynamics of Chinese–Foreign Cooperation in Running Schools (1978–2025): A Mixed-Methods Study
Since 1978, Chinese–foreign cooperation in running schools (CFCRS) has evolved from fragmented pilot initiatives into a policy-coordinated system of higher education internationalization. This study employs an exploratory sequential mixed-methods design to examine how national policy shifts reshaped the structure of CFCRS collaboration networks between 1978 and 2025. Integrating longitudinal policy analysis with Social Network Analysis (SNA), the…
Party Strength in New Fields: The Chinese Communist Party’s Tactics for Penetrating “Two New” Organizations in the Non-Public Sector
Party-based authoritarian regimes have often demonstrated remarkable resilience throughout wars, revolutions, and state-building processes. Yet how they consolidate authority in newly emerging socioeconomic fields that arise from the (partial) liberalization of socioeconomic policies remains insufficiently explored. This study examines the Chinese Communist Party’s (CCP) penetration into new socioeconomic organizations in the non-public sector, s…
Covid-19 Knowledge/Practices, Mental Status, and Return-To-Work Concerns Among Healthcare Workers in Huangzhou District, Huanggang City, China
Objective: This study investigated the COVID-19-prevention knowledge and practices of healthcare workers (HCWs), their psychological states concerning the return to work, and their trust and requirements in using traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) to prevent and treat COVID-19. It is hoped that the study can serve as a reference for policy making during the resumption of work in other countries or regions experiencing similar situations. Methods:…
Linking institutional function with form: Distributional dynamics, disequilibrium, and rural land shareholding in China
Information capacity and social order: The local politics of information integration in China
How do regimes employ information to govern society and maintain control? Recent scholarship argues that legibility is a fundamental component of state capacity, but the politics of information collection and use remain incompletely understood. This article examines how the local state in China uses information to amplify legibility and bolster social control. Extant literature focuses largely on informationcollection, but Chinese officials have …
Institutional credibility and informal institutions: The case of extralegal land development in China
Meritocracy in Village Elections: The “Separation of Election and Employment” Scheme in Rural China
Local governments in China face a fundamental ‘democracy dilemma’ in rural governance: although elected village cadres may not be capable or controllable, local governments cannot change or abolish village self-government, as enshrined in China’s Constitution and the national laws. However, there has recently been a new way of dealing with this dilemma for local governments: called the ‘Separation of Election and Employment’ (xuan pin fenli, SEE)…
State Power and Village Cadres in Contemporary China: The case of rural land transfer in Shandong province
In the case of land transfer in rural China, why do some village cadres act as entrepreneurs, some become middlemen between agribusinesses and peasants, and others choose to be passive bystanders? Based on comparative case studies in Shandong province, it is argued that state power, rather than village elections, informal solidary groups and economic benefits, is the dominant explanatory mechanism. This article suggests that our discussion of the…
Estimating Cyanobacteria Community Dynamics and its Relationship with Environmental Factors
The cyanobacteria community dynamics in two eutrophic freshwater bodies (Tiegang Reservoir and Shiyan Reservoir) was studied with both a traditional microscopic counting method and a PCR-DGGE genotyping method. Results showed that cyanobacterium Phormidium tenue was the predominant species; twenty-six cyanobacteria species were identified in water samples collected from the two reservoirs, among which fourteen were identified with the morphologic…
