Employing a qualitative methodology, the study engaged 12 Chinese international undergraduate students from a public comprehensive university in the northeastern United States. Fi…
On the tracking account of inferential knowledge
Nozick has an account of inferential knowledge which has rarely been discussed. According to this account, in order to know q via competent inference from p, S’s belief in q should track the truth of p in the right way. In detail, S knows via competent inference from p that q iff1*. S knows that p.2*. q is true, and S infers q from p.3*. If q were false, S wouldn’t believe that p.4*. If q were true, S would believe that p.In this paper, it is arg…

High quantity but low quality? Analysing the Education of international students in China from the perspective of institutional logics
This paper focuses on the education of international students (EIS) in China to explore the “high quantity and relatively low quality” outcomes of EIS by reference to the microlevel actions of organizations. Semistructured interviews were conducted with different organizational actors. These interviews showed how organizational actions in terms of student enrolment, training and assessment have led to “high quantity and relatively low quality” ou…
A first Chinese building height estimate at 10 m resolution (CNBH-10 m) using multi-source earth observations and machine learning
Induction, Conjunction Introduction, and Safety
Depending on whether we are somewhat tolerant of nearby error-possibilities or not, the safety condition on knowledge is open to a strong reading and a weak reading. In this paper, it is argued that induction and conjunction introduction constitute two horns of a dilemma for the safety account of knowledge. If we opt for the strong reading, then the safety account fails to account for inductive knowledge. In contrast, if we opt for the weak readi…
Westernization or internationalization? Academic expectations and challenges faced by international postgraduates in China
China has become a main host country for international students, but its international programmes for higher education still need improvement. This study aimed to examine the academic challenges that international postgraduates in China face based on Luc Boltanski's idea of ordinary critique. A qualitative research approach was adopted, and data were collected from 18 international students in two universities in China through semi structured int…
Pay dispersion and organizational innovation
Building on social comparison theory, we posit that a firm’s pay dispersion affects its innovation through employee participation and voluntary turnover. By analyzing data collected at both employee and organizational levels from 1419 firms, we found that pay dispersion had an inverted U-shaped effect on employee participation, which in turn enhanced innovation. Pay dispersion had a positive effect on voluntary turnover, which in turn impaired in…
Mouthpiece or money-spinner
The start of direct retail television in China signalled a new and more liberal stage in the commercialization of Chinese television in the second half of the 1990s. The mass media in China have been going through a steady process of marketization since the mid-1980s. This process has gathered pace since 1992, in a political climate congenial to economic liberalization, which was created by the late Deng Xiaoping touring and blessing the booming …
Popular family television and party ideology
This article analyses the Chinese Central Television (CCTV) Festival Eve happy gathering on 6 February 1997, as a case to illustrate the way in which popular entertainment on television is tied in with political and ideological messages in the full-blown market era of the mid-1990s. The CCTV gala, first conceived in 1983, has been institutionalized over the years into an indispensable part of the Chinese New Year celebrations. As the year's most …
Consumerism, Confucianism, Communism
The dramatic social, economic and cultural changes that have been taking place in China over the past fifteen years have been attracting more and more attention from commentators in the West. The old order maintained by stringent state control over the economy and everyday life has been gradually
