    As one of the latest achievements in the historical transformation and development of Chinese social governance, the “four turns” of social governance (socialization, legalization, intelligentization, and specialization) not only provide specific directions for the construction of the system of the New Eras social governance, but also provide new standards for the evaluation and form a new paradigm for Chinese social governanceThis study proposes a new theory called a multidimensional, composite, social governance based on a systematic literature review and a comparison of traditional Chinese and Western societies, and advocates for an indepth exploration of various possible composite effects between the “four turns” innovation of social governance in the New Era, such as the offsetting, paralleling, average, complementary, synergistic, and multiple composite effectsThis new theory not only provides a good explanation for the practice of “four turns” in social governance, but also provides important references for optimizing Chinese and other like social governance practices.

    The dilemma of modernization facing most developing countries are closely linked to the Western dominated world systemOn the one hand, the advantage of the developed countries makes it difficult for developing countries to catch up, and, in the meantime, those developed nations intentionally hinder the economic development of developing countriesOn the other hand, structural changes in the world system make it hard for developing countries to have the“window of development.” As developing countries gradually transit from colonial oppression to political independence, the global economic structure has also shifted from national to transnational economiesWhile the former provides conditions for developing countries to autonomously formulate developmental strategies, the latter continuously weakens their economic sovereignty, forcing them to passively respond to the global economic systemThe success of Chinese modernization demonstrates that internal factors remain the key for latecomers to catch up with the developed economiesThree factors deserve our special attention, which are, achieving political independence, establishing a socialist system that serves the interests of the majority, and adopting a competitive strategy of advantage under the principle of selfreliance.

    Accelerating the formation of relations of production more compatible with the new quality productive forces has significant practical significanceIt is not only the essence of activating the vitality of the development of the new quality productive forces, but also an inevitable requirement to regulate the developmental order of the new quality productive forcesIt will also provide institutional guarantees for the sharing of the achievements of the new quality productive forces. Upholding the firm leadership of the Party, to effectively mobilize the enthusiasm of all parties to participate in the development of the new quality productive forces and to coordinate development and security are the basic principles that need to be followed to promote the better adaptation of production to the development of new quality productive forcesFrom the perspective of the developing path, we should take the reform of both economic and technological systems as the driving force, the establishment of a high standard market system as the support, and highlevel opening up as the route to continuously deepen and form specific practices of production relations more suitable for the new quality productive forces.

    As our intrinsic subjective experience, pain possesses the following distinct characteristics: intrinsic direct relevance, subjectivity, and crosssubjective shareabilityThe intrinsic subjective sensation is the fundamental characteristic of qualiaIt cannot be reduced to its various external manifestationsQualia are our intrinsic subjective sensations, but this does not mean that they are private and unique to each individualOn the contrary, qualia can be shared across subjectsThe crosssubjective shareability of qualia forms the true foundation of human social communitiesThe subjectivity of sensation is a product of biological evolution, through which, life has acquired the capacity for subjective sensations, even selfawareness, and so forthSuch capacity constitutes a new mode of existence for life, and reestablishes the foundation for the existence of living beings.

    Consciousness appears to be a uniquely human characteristicWith the rise of artificial intelligence, debates have emerged on whether machines can possess consciousness or notSome argue that attributing consciousness to machines is erroneous, while others contend that the focus should be shifted from “whether machines have consciousness” to “whether they exhibit intelligence” The advent and wide application of large language models have provided a novel perspective to discuss this issueThis article analyzes divergent interpretations on machine consciousness from the standpoints of noself physicalism and physicalism grounding in the selfDrawing on Wilfrid Sellars distinction between the manifest image and the scientific image, we reexamine the nature of consciousnessSpecifically, we delineate“what consciousness is”, a question of philosophical reflection embedded in the manifest image, and“how consciousness is realized”, a question of scientific practice situated in the scientific image, as two distinct yet interconnected issues. Understanding how machines might realize consciousness necessitates clarifying the essence of consciousness, and the outcomes of such realization must withstand the scrutiny through commonsense frameworksOnly by analyzing the relationship between these two questions can we systematically address whether machines possess consciousness.

    Alexander of Aphrodisias theory on action and moral psychology have received unprecedented attention in the debate concerning the history of the will and freewillAlexander emphasizes that only when we as rational agents have the ability to act against the course of action actually taken, can our actions and their consequences be up to usHowever, in the eyes of many researchers, Alexander does not give a convincing answer to how this claim is possible in moral psychologyRecent studies on Alexanders moral psychology have responded to the above accusations, but still fail to notice the importance of the concept of judgmentThis article starts from this point to clarify the relationship between judgment, deliberation, and choice in Alexanders moral psychology, so as to illustrate the difficulties encountered by ancient indeterminists in explaining the reasons and intelligibility of free choice and their possible coping strategies.

    To return to the things themselves is the single goal throughout the phenomenological movementPhenomenologists not only deal with contents and manners of various phenomena, but also constitute a hic et nunc subject to whom a phenomenon is addressedVarious modes and conditions of givenness of phenomena necessarily involve different forms of subjectFollowing the late Husserls phenomenological reflection on the depthphenomenon, the early MerleauPonty determines the goal of phenomenological reduction as revealing the world as alien and paradoxical while the fundamental subjectivity as transcending to the worldOn the basis of his early conception of form and structure, he considers the subjects transcendence to the world as projecting the world. As the projected world does not thoroughly leave behind the objectification, the early MerleauPonty failed to do justice to the alien and paradoxical nature of the transcendent world in question as what his phenomenological reduction demandsThis article focuses on a fundamental change of MerleauPontys conception of subjectivity on the basis of his innovative reflection on the carnal subject in his essay L'Homme et ladversité in the middle phase of his phenomenological developmentIt argues that a subjective dimension of the flesh only emerges in its participation in and service to the generation of nonrational visibility from the depth of the primordial world.

    Based on the Intercountry Inputoutput database developed by the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECDICIO database), this article constructs a revealed comparative advantage (RCA) model based on the value added in exports from the perspective of division of labor in the industrial chain, and analyzes the characteristics and driving factors of the relative levels of Chinese manufacturing enterprises participation in international industrial chain, domestic upstream industrial chain, and domestic downstream industrial chainIt shows that the comparative advantage of the division of labor in the industrial chain of Chinas manufacturing industry has been at a low level for a long timeThe manufacturing industry with high research and development (R&D) intensity is highly dependent on international industrial chain and has not extended enough to domestic downstream industrial chain, while the medium and mediumlow R&D intensity manufacturing industries have achieved a certain degree of improvement in the division of labor of the industrial chain by expanding to domestic upstream and downstream linksHow to reduce the dependence of Chinese manufacturing enterprises on upstream international supply, increase their extension to domestic downstream industrial chain, and improve the overall level of division of labor in Chinese industrial chain is one of the key directions for Chinas manufacturing industry to achieve industrial transformation and upgrading.

    In the context of constructing China's independent knowledge system, question itself is becoming an important issue in the study of journalismMetaquestion, general question, basic question, general and special questions constitute the four beams and eight pillars of the system of question in journalismAmong them, “what is news” is the metaquestion of journalism and the logical starting point to establish a system of question in journalismThe relationship between people and news is a general question of journalism, which is embodied in all the questions of journalismThe relationship between facts and news is a basic question of journalism, which is considered throughout the study of journalismUniversal questions are those that transcend time and space in journalism, while special questions are related to specific historical and cultural situationsThese fundamental issues have different sources, follow different principles, have different ways of response and interpretation, and occupy different logical positions in the system of question in Chinese journalismThe questions are also interrelatedThey form an organic and unified system of question, and promote the study of journalism.

    The generation of the hexagram meanings is hierarchical and presents the poetic interweaving of nature and humanityIn the process of “observing things and taking images”, the creation of hexagrams originated from ancient Chinese peoples perception of the images, combinations of their appearances, and changing situations of myriad of things, and presents their life experiences aware of the perception and connection of images and the world in which they appearIn the extension of“establishing images to exhaust meanings”,the interpretation of hexagrams embodies ancient Chinese peoples imagination of connected categories and their life experiences reflecting on knowledge and action, and presents the cultural ideal of images for the cultural development of humanistic cultivation in the worldThe attributes of the original creativity and humanistic derivation of the hexagrams have laid a philosophical foundation for the beauty of imaginal correlativeAs two main approaches to the studies on imagery aesthetics, aesthetic psychology and phenomenological aesthetics pay more attention to the sensory connectivity of images at the primary levelHow to go beyond the perspective of modern aesthetics and further explore the humanistic connotation of images, especially to face up to the ethical and political dimensions of aesthetic images, is a problem that needs to be addressed in the study on imagery aesthetics.

    The thinking of humanity in the Appendices to the Book of Changes includes the realization, practice, manifestation of humanity while hiding the function of the WayCompared with Confuciuss and Menciuss study of humanity, the thinking of realizing humanity emphasizes the fundamental side of humanity that regulates political personality and to some extent sublimates the political value of humanityThe thinking of “pacifying earth and practicing humanity” is closely related to the Appendices to the Book of Changescontents regarding the concepts of qian (heaven), kun (earth), and the sage, and reflects the metaphysical, epistemological, and the Confucian jingjierelated significance of humanity embedded in the Appendices to the Book of ChangesThe saying of “manifesting humanity and hiding the function (of the Way)”elaborates the “great humanity”of the heavenly way that generates all things, on the one hand, and expresses the sagely humanity associated with the awareness of hardship, on the otherThe attributes of the Appendices to the Book of Changes as one of Chinese classics and its theoretical form “to illuminate human affairs with the heavenly way”result in the difference of its thinking on humanity from the ideas attributed to Confucius, Mencius, and Xunzi, and have farreaching influence on later generations.
