Further Discussion of the Fundamental Differences between Chinese and Western Philosophy
In the context of the problem of the “fundamental differences” between Chinese and Western philosophy, it is essential to investigate the basic system on which the entirety of Western philosophy operates and the unique way it has developed within this system, so that concrete observation can help deepen understanding. The observation involves the issues of what metaphysics is; “transcendence”; the fourfold distinction in the history of Western me…
Doctor-Patient Relationship in the Eyes of Medical Professionals in China During the Covid-19 Pandemic: A Cross-Sectional Study

The care regime in China: Elder and child care
As a result of rapid socio-economic change, a steep decline in the fertility rate and an ageing population, the care regime in China faces challenges. Using existing data (primarily the National Surveys on Social Support to Older People in Rural and Urban China, conducted by the China Research Centre on Ageing in 2000 and 2006), we examine the change in China's care regime, focusing on the infrastructure (services and financing) and the distribut…
Sex Identification of Slave Sacrifice Victims From Qin State Tombs in the Spring and Autumn Period of China Using Ancient Dna: Sex identification of slave sacrifice victims from Qin State tombs
Ancient DNA (aDNA) analysis was employed to determine the sex of slave sacrifice victims from Qin State tombs during the Spring and Autumn Period of China. It is difficult to obtain sex information from fragmentary skeleton samples with the aid of skeletal morphology methods. aDNA was extracted from the dentine in selected tooth samples of sacrificial slaves using a modified traditional method, which combines together phenol/chloroform extraction…
Changing Approaches of Social Protection: Social Assistance Reform in Urban China
The article will examine the latest development of China's urban social assistance reform. Under the impact of the dual processes of globalisation and the deepening market transition, China's social security reform is increasingly taking a new safety net approach to assist the urban poor, instead of relying mainly on social insurance provision. The minimum living security project for urban residents is one of the approaches supplementing social i…
The Changing Role of the State in Child Protection: The Case of Nanchang
This article examines the state’s changing role in welfare provision to vulnerable children in a Chinese city and identifies three historical periods: a precommunist period, in which the private sector was the backbone of welfare provision for children; an early period in the communist regime, when the state monopolized welfare provision for children; and a posttransition period, in which state institutional care is increasingly replaced by famil…
Protecting Children under Financial Constraints: Foster Mother Villages' in Datong
China has a long tradition of Confucianism, it has also been dominated by a communist ideology for a few decades. How did these different beliefs and principles influence its welfare system in the past? Towards which direction is the system shifting when the balance of power between the state (the dominant ideology) and society (with its own traditions) has been changed? This article analyses the case of 'Foster Mother Villages' and the Datong So…
