The Choreographic Construction of the “Traumatized Collective” in In the Depths of Memory
type: item
description: In the Depths of Memory serves as an artistic commemoration of the Nanjing Massacre, one of the most catastrophic events in modern Chinese history. Through stylized theatrical expression, the choreographer constructs a multitude of symbolic stage images. Among these, the most prominent and thematically significant figures are the collective of those who suffered during the massacre. This group-transcending distinctions of profession, social status, and gender-shares a common experience of peril and anguish. The choreography of In the Depths of Memory dedicates multiple dance sequences to depicting this “traumatized collective.” From the perspective of movement composition, variations in physical motivation, modes of motion, and spatial dynamics collectively shape the representation of trauma on stage, thereby generating a richer aesthetic texture and a deeper emotional resonance.

Preliminary Study on the Concern for the Grassroots in Mo Yan's Sandalwood Death
type: item
description: This paper attempts to explore the issue of grassroots concern in Mo Yan's long novel, Sandalwood Death. Published in 2001, the novel immediately caused a stir, eliciting both high praise and criticism. Behind the surface of exaggerated violence and language, the novel conceals a treasure Mo Yan unearthed from a folk perspective. As the 1985 “Root-Seeking Literature” manifesto declared: “Literature has roots, and the roots of literature should be deeply embedded in the soil of the national cultural tradition; without deep roots, the leaves will struggle to flourish.” Our responsibility is to “release the thermal energy of modern concepts to reforge and burnish the 'national self'.” Sandalwood Death continues Lu Xun's theme of critiquing the national character, deepening it and demonstrating profound significance.

The Impact of Chinese Piano Aesthetic Education on University Students' Aesthetic Literacy: Mediating Roles of Learning Engagement and Psychological Capital based on the FORUM Model
type: item
description: In the midst of holistic development (Suzhi Jiaoyu) becoming a focal point in Chinese higher education, aesthetic education (Meiyu) has been made a national priority. In this study, we intend to see how well a certain kind of PAE programme, which uses an unusual method called the FORUM (Foundation, Observation, Reflection, Understanding, Manifestation) approach to build itself, works for Chinese university students when it comes to teaching them how to appreciate art. Additionally, it looks at how these are related to each other and proposes a parallel mediation model where Learning Engagement (LE), and Psychological Capital (PsyCap). A cross-sectional survey was carried out with 850 undergraduate students in 5 universities in China who took part in the FORUM based PAE elective. Data were analyzed through means of describing statistic,correlation analysis and structural equation modeling(bootstrapping). According to the results, FORUM-PAE had significant positive predictions for students’ AELE. Both Learning engagement and psychological capital partially mediated this relationship. In terms, the PAE program increases students’ engagement (vigor, dedication, absorption) and PsyCap (hope, efficacy, resilience, optimism), then, the students have higher aesthetic literacy (perception, judgment, creativity). All the above indicate that it is necessary to use FORUM as a means of education for learning music, and stress how significant it is to develop student engagement and good psychological resources when we try to promote beautiful feelings. And it can also offer useful information for educators and policymakers who would like to improve aesthetic education curriculums in China.

Enlightenment of Practice View in Outline of Feuerbach on Practical Education in Colleges and Universities
type: item
description: As the core category of Marx's philosophical revolution, the concept of practice plays an important role in the Outline of Feuerbach. This paper is based on the triple philosophical implications of Marx's view of practice: the subjective dimension embodies the active construction of "realistic individuals", the epistemological dimension emphasizes the dialectical transformation from theory to practice, and the axiological dimension contains revolutionary critical spirit. At present, the alienation of "subjectivity" in practical education in colleges and universities leads to the instrumental tendency of practical activities, the binary opposition between knowledge and practice caused by objectification obstacles, and the lack of criticism weakens the endogenous motivation of practical innovation. These phenomena are directly manifested in the mental health crisis of young college students, such as anxiety and value confusion. By reconstructing the subjective practical education mode, establishing the dialectical circulation mechanism of "cognition-practice-reflection", creating a good practical education environment and cultivating revolutionary practical spirit, this study has important times value for breaking through the cognitive limitation of traditional mental health education, developing Marxist practical education paradigm and cultivating new people of the times who are responsible for national rejuvenation. It not only deepens the application research of practical philosophy in mental health education in theory, but also provides methodological guidance for solving the mental health problems of young students in practice.

Research on the Effect of Disseminating English Versions of Chinese Stories in Foreign Language Education and Strategies for Improvement
type: item
description: In the context of globalization, cultural soft power has become a crucial component of a country's comprehensive competitiveness. Foreign language education, serving as a bridge for cross-cultural communication, shoulders the important mission of disseminating Chinese culture and telling Chinese stories well. However, the current English dissemination of Chinese stories faces issues such as "cultural discount" and monotonous dissemination forms. This study systematically analyzes the current dissemination situation of English versions of Chinese stories in foreign language education through literature analysis, case studies, questionnaire surveys, and experimental research. It reveals core issues such as a high proportion of traditional culture, official channels dominating, and an imbalance in language-culture adaptability. The study explores key factors influencing dissemination effectiveness from three aspects: language proficiency, cultural cognition, and teaching strategies. It proposes strategies for improvement, including constructing a "language-culture-communication" trinity curriculum system, innovating situational teaching and project-based learning models, and improving a diversified evaluation system. The aim is to enhance the precision and effectiveness of China's international cultural dissemination, providing theoretical support and practical paths for cultivating international communication talents and implementing China's "going global" strategy for culture.

The Mechanism of Cross-Ethnic Social Capital Accumulation in Qing Dynasty Beijing Merchants' Guildhalls
type: item
description: During the Qing Dynasty, Beijing served as the national capital and a hub of commercial activity, attracting merchants from diverse ethnic backgrounds. This paper explores the mechanisms through which merchants' guildhalls in Beijing facilitated the accumulation of cross-ethnic social capital, enabling trust-building, resource-sharing, and collective action among Han, Manchu, Mongol, and Hui merchants. By analyzing historical records and commercial practices, this study highlights how guildhalls functioned as platforms for intercultural negotiation, ritualized interaction, and institutionalized cooperation. It argues that these organizations were crucial in mitigating ethnic tensions and fostering a cohesive commercial culture. The findings suggest that the social capital accumulated through these guildhalls contributed significantly to the stability and prosperity of Beijing's urban economy.

ESG Factors in Financial Investment: Analysis and Application to Portfolio Optimization
type: item
description: The concept of ESG (Environment, Social, and Governance) represents a corporate development philosophy and sustainable investment practice that places significant emphasis on environmental, social, and governance factors. In recent years, as understanding of sustainable investment concepts has been deepened, the application of this concept in international financial markets and portfolio construction has become increasingly widespread and in-depth. Whether ESG leads to a decrease in portfolio returns or an increase in volatility has also become a topic of widespread concern. The applicability of ESG factors in asset pricing models can help advance traditional asset pricing theory and provide theoretical support for guiding capital flows toward enterprises and projects aligned with sustainable development, thereby promoting social welfare improvement. In this paper, 10 stocks from industries such as technology, finance, and consumer goods were selected (NVDA, CSCO, INTC, GS, USB, TD CN, ALL, PG, JNJ, CL) to study the application of leverage and ESG factors in the Markowitz Model and Index Model, and to explore the impact of ESG factors on the return and risk performance of investment portfolios. The research data results indicate that ESG constraints indeed reduce the return of investment portfolios in the scenario of minimizing the portfolio’s risk, with risk factor attributes. However, in the efficient risky portfolio, ESG constraints represent an increase in portfolio returns, and an increase in volatility does exist in financial markets.

Gender Gap in Motivation for Watching Sports: Exploring the Role of Artificial Intelligence
type: item
description: There are significant gender differences in sports consumption for a long time, which are not only reflected in participation behavior, but also reflected in the structural division of motivation for watching games. This study uses a mixed research method (questionnaire survey and in-depth interview) to empirically examine the gender differentiation characteristics of Hong Kong university students 'motivation to watch sports games and the moderating effect of artificial intelligence technology. Quantitative analysis showed that male's excitement motivation was significantly stronger than female's, while female's aesthetic motivation scored higher. Artificial intelligence systematically strengthens the existing motivation differences through the triple mechanism of internal event collection generation, experience customization and AI explanation: men rely on technology to deepen competitive analysis, while women are limited by algorithm bias to expand aesthetic experience. The study reveals that current sports AI technology has not yet become a bridge to bridge the gender gap, but has become a technical carrier to replicate the traditional gender cognitive framework. Based on this, this paper proposes an intervention path of technology ethics, and calls for the construction of a gender-balanced algorithm design framework to promote sports consumption equity.

The Impact of Land Property Right on China’s Rural-urban Migration
type: item
description: This study explores how China’s land property rights systems affect rural residents’ migration decisions, using data from the China Health and Aging Tracking Survey (CHARLS) and a Probit model. It analyzes two core mechanisms: market-based land leasing and government-led land expropriation. Results show land leasing has a moderate, group-variant positive effect on migration (stronger for low-income groups), while land expropriation exerts a significant negative effect (more pronounced for non-agricultural hukou holders and party members). The findings highlight the need for targeted land system reforms to ease migration constraints.

The Analysis of Thoreau and Martin Luther King Jr.’s Perspectives on Unjust Law
type: item
description: Within discussions of legal philosophy, the enduring debate over the relationship between law and morality, centered on the proposition that "an unjust law is no law at all" (lex injusta non est lex), has remained one of the central issues in both theoretical inquiry and social practice. This paper takes the core viewpoints of Henry David Thoreau and Martin Luther King, Jr. on "unjust laws" as its research object, exploring the classic jurisprudential proposition of "whether an unjust law is truly law and whether it needs to be obeyed." The paper begins with an introduction to the differing stances on this issue held by the natural law school and the legal positivism school. It focuses on analyzing Thoreau's critique of the Mexican-American War and slavery in "On the Duty of Civil Disobedience," where he proposes the theory of "lex iniusta non est lex" based on individual conscience and practices tax resistance. Simultaneously, it examines Martin Luther King Jr.'s position in his "Letter from Birmingham Jail," written during his imprisonment for participating in nonviolent demonstrations against racial segregation. King inherited and developed Augustine's view that "an unjust law is no law at all" to confront systemic injustice like segregation laws, advocating for nonviolent direct action. The paper conducts an in-depth comparison of the commonalities and differences between their perspectives. The research indicates that their ideas profoundly influenced subsequent legal ethics, social movements, and legislative processes, jointly promoting reflection on the justice of law, the duty of citizen obedience, and the advancement of democratic legal change through peaceful protest. This provides significant insights for understanding the moral foundations and limitations of law.

A Multi-Objective Optimization Model for Sustainable Supply Chain Network Design under Uncertainty
type: item
description: Under the global carbon neutrality agenda and increasing supply chain uncertainties, designing supply chain networks that balance economic, environmental, and social sustainability has become a strategic priority for enterprises. This paper proposes a Robust Optimization-based Multi-Objective Mixed Integer Programming model (ROMO-MIP) to address sustainable supply chain network design under uncertainties such as demand fluctuations, carbon price volatility, and supply disruptions. The model simultaneously optimizes three objectives: minimizing total cost, minimizing carbon emissions, and maximizing job creation and regional equity. The -constraint method and the NSGA-III algorithm are employed to generate the Pareto front, and an empirical case study is conducted on the lithium-ion battery supply chain for new energy vehicles in China. Results show that incorporating robustness parameters significantly enhances network resilience under uncertainty, while multi-objective trade-off analysis enables decision-makers to select optimal configurations aligned with policy priorities. This study provides a practical decision-support tool for firms seeking green transformation and resilient operations.

Multimodal Sentiment Analysis and Improved Transformer-Based Emotional Music Generation Method for Elderly People in Nursing Homes
type: item
description: Aiming at the predicaments of loneliness, depression, and cognitive decline commonly faced by elderly people in nursing homes-where existing manual emotional support struggles to achieve accurate responses due to limited nursing resources. This study conducts research on multimodal sentiment analysis (integrating facial images, EEG signals, and EOG signals) and improved Transformer-based emotional music generation for this group. The research holds significant theoretical supplementary value and practical application significance: it not only provides a new paradigm of multimodal fusion for the field of elderly affective computing but also offers a precise emotional and cognitive intervention solution for the elderly in nursing homes, alleviating their negative emotions and reducing the burden on caregivers. The core innovations of the study are reflected in two aspects: First, a multimodal sentiment analysis model is constructed with optimized design in the feature extraction stage. An improved PFLD model incorporating a Feature Module is adopted to enhance the accuracy of facial landmark detection through multi-scale feature fusion; the Linear Dynamic System (LDS) is used to smooth EEG signal features for reducing noise interference; continuous wavelet transform and peak detection are combined to extract key features (e.g., blinking, fixation) from EOG signals; and a 1D Convolutional Neural Network (1DCCNN) is designed to adapt to the temporal characteristics of physiological signals. Finally, multimodal features are fused via a convolutional encoder and input into a Recurrent Neural Network (RNN) for sentiment classification, breaking the limitations of single-modal recognition. Second, the Discrete-Emo Transformer emotional music generation model is proposed: the Flash attention mechanism is introduced to alleviate memory bottlenecks and improve inference speed; the segment recurrence mechanism of Transformer-XL is integrated to enhance the model’s ability to le…

Studying the Relationship between Loneliness and Shopping Channel Preferences for Online or Offline Shopping: The Case of International Students in UK Higher Education
type: item
description: Given the rising prevalence of loneliness among international students and its impact on well-being and consumption, this study investigates how distinct forms of loneliness (emotional, social, and cultural) influence international students’ preferences for online versus offline shopping channels in UK higher education, mediated by approach–avoidance motivation. A mixed-methods design was employed. Quantitative data were collected through an online questionnaire conducted with 128 international students, measuring loneliness dimensions, approach–avoidance motivations, and shopping behaviors. Data were analyzed using regression analysis and mediation models tested with bootstrapping methods. Qualitative insights were obtained from open-ended survey questions, enriching the statistical findings with contextual details. Findings reveal that loneliness is widespread in this population, with social loneliness most prevalent. Emotional and cultural loneliness were associated with stronger online shopping behaviours, mediated by online approach motivation. In contrast, social loneliness was linked to weaker online shopping behaviours, mediated by lower online avoidance motivation. This study strengthens the understanding of loneliness within compensatory consumption theory and approach–avoidance motivation theory, while also providing practical guidance for businesses and universities.

Research on the Division of Tort Liability in Driverless Vehicle Accidents
type: item
description: Driverless vehicles significantly liberate drivers from manual control, reduce traffic accident risks, and safeguard public safety and property security. Yet, due to the system-controlled nature and imperfect legal regulations, the division of tort liability in driverless vehicle accidents remains ambiguous, necessitating an adapted accountability framework. Based on clarifying the conceptual scope of driverless vehicles, it is essential to delineate shifts in liability proportions for traffic accidents compared to traditional vehicles, adjust and introduce compulsory liability insurance for driverless driving modes, and appropriately strengthen manufacturer obligations. Considering the transitional historical phase of driverless vehicles, an applicable criterion of liability framework for traffic accidents should be established and substantiated. The burgeoning driverless vehicle technology remains in flux regarding both technical standards and application paradigms. Delineating tort liability must not only operate within existing legal frameworks but also judiciously balance between regulating risks of emerging technologies and fostering their innovative development, thereby supporting the driverless vehicle sector and safeguarding public legal rights.

Earnings Quality and Corporate ESG Performance: Evidence from Mandatory Environmental Disclosure Policies
type: item
description: The interplay between earnings quality and corporate Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) performance has garnered increasing attention in the context of sustainable finance. This paper investigates how mandatory environmental disclosure policies influence earnings quality and ESG outcomes in corporations. Drawing on empirical evidence from global markets, we analyze the mechanisms through which enhanced transparency in environmental reporting affects financial reporting integrity and broader ESG metrics. Challenges such as data manipulation risks, compliance costs, and cultural resistance are examined, alongside enablers like regulatory enforcement, investor pressure, and technological advancements. We propose a conceptual framework that integrates these elements with organizational readiness for disclosure mandates. Our findings suggest that firms with higher earnings quality exhibit stronger ESG performance post-mandate implementation, particularly in industries with high environmental impact. This study contributes to the literature by providing insights into policy effectiveness, highlighting the role of governance in mitigating risks, and offering recommendations for regulators and corporate leaders to foster sustainable practices without compromising financial transparency. The implications are relevant for both developed and emerging markets, emphasizing the need for balanced regulatory frameworks that promote accountability while supporting innovation in ESG reporting. Furthermore, we discuss the longterm effects on firm valuation and stakeholder trust, underscoring the transformative potential of these policies in aligning corporate strategies with global sustainability goals.

Digital Shame as Sexual Governance: Rethinking Sexuality Regulation through Chinese Social Media Platforms
type: item
description: This paper looks at how shame is used to control sexual expression on Chinese social media. It uses ideas from Foucault, Butler, Ahmed and others to study how platforms like Douyin and Xiaohongshu do not block content directly, but instead use algorithms, user reports and emotional responses to guide what is shown. The paper introduces the idea of “digital shame governance” to explain how shame becomes a tool shaped by both technology and public opinion. It is also used by platforms to make money. Another idea, “click-based sexual discipline,” shows how shame makes certain gender content more visible and popular, even while it limits what women can safely post. By looking at real cases, such as online bullying and feminist voices being silenced, the paper shows how women’s bodies are judged and controlled in these digital spaces. In the end, the study argues that sexual control online is not only about morals or technology, but also about business. Shame is now a kind of data that platforms use to get more attention and profit.

Models Comparison and Strategy Analysis of Futures Option Pricing and Arbitrage
type: item
description: Futures options are important derivative instruments in modern financial markets, playing a crucial role in risk management, price discovery, speculation and arbitrage. Scientific and accurate pricing is not merely related to investors' trading decisions, but directly affects the effectiveness of arbitrage strategies and the operational efficiency of the market. After reviewing relevant theories, this paper conducts a comprehensive comparison of several typical futures option pricing models, including the Black-Scholes model, binomial tree model and Monte Carlo method, stochastic volatility model (Heston model), GARCH-type models, and machine learning models. These models have both advantages and disadvantages in terms of pricing accuracy, applicable scenarios, and complexity. The operation of Black-Scholes model is simple and effective, but it neglects the dynamic characteristics of volatility. Stochastic volatility models and GARCH-type models can well explain the volatility smile, while machine learning methods have potential in prediction and nonlinear modeling. Furthermore, this paper introduces common arbitrage strategies based on the no-arbitrage principle, analyzes the arbitrage opportunities brought by model errors, and discusses the impact of transaction costs and liquidity constraints on arbitrage strategies. Through theoretical comparison and strategy analysis, it is argued that the rational selection and combination of pricing models is the key to improving the feasibility of arbitrage strategies, which provides reference significance for both the research and practice of the futures option market.

The Social Production of Smart Cities: A Critical Sociology of Technology, Governance, and Citizenship in Digital Urbanism
type: item
description: The concept of smart cities extends beyond the integration of technological systems; it is a social process where technology, governance, and citizenship are mutually constructed. This paper adopts a critical sociology perspective to explore the socio-technical production mechanisms of "smart cities" within digital urbanism. Through comparative case studies of Hangzhou, Singapore, and Barcelona, this research examines how the Internet of Things (IoT), big data platforms, and urban brains reshape governmental governance logic, public service delivery methods, and citizen participation spaces. The study reveals that the deployment of these technologies often becomes embedded in existing power structures, leading to issues such as "data bureaucratization," "superficial participation," and "digital exclusion." True smart cities should transcend instrumental rationality and shift towards citizen-centric "responsive governance," emphasizing transparency, inclusiveness, and techno-democracy.

The Transformation of Supreme Deity Worship and the Decline of the Taotie Motif from Late Shang to Early Western Zhou China
type: item
description: This paper explores the relationship between religious change and artistic transformation in the period between the Shang (c. 1600-1046 BCE) and Western Zhou (1046-771 BCE) dynasties, and how the change of Shangdi to Tian worship led to the deterioration of the taotie motif in bronze ornamentation. The study uses oracle bone and bronze inscription texts and archaeological data to follow how the concept of supreme deities evolved and how it was reflected in material culture. The anthropomorphic Shangdi of the Shang dynasty demanded shamanic intercession by means of divination and offerings, which were depicted in the fierce, complicated taotie designs that filled ritual bronzes. These motifs were marked by large eyes, relief, and supernatural urgency, and they functioned as visual parts of shamanic cosmology and divinity speech. The Tian innovation of the Zhou as an abstract, morally normative supreme authority radically transformed religious practice by stressing virtue-based rule via the Mandate of Heaven over and above shamanism-based mediation. This theological change directly led to the artistic decadence of taotie iconography, which was simplified, pushed to the margins, and later displaced by geometric designs, ancestor imagery and historical texts. The paper illustrates that the loss of the taotie reflects not only aesthetic evolution but also a basic rationalization of religious power, the earliest form of a rationalized political symbolism replacing shamanic visual culture in the material record.

Digital Vigilantism in China’s Media Industry: The Intersectional Risks for Women Job Seekers
type: item
description: This study looks at how digital vigilantism and participatory surveillance make gender inequality worse in journalism jobs in China. It focuses on women job seekers and uses intersectionality theory to show how gender, age, and class together increase career risks. Through real cases and academic research, the paper shows that women often face more online checks, self-censorship, and unfair treatment from platform algorithms. Young women may be seen as “too outspoken”, while older women may be ignored for not using social media enough. The study also explains how platform rules and job standards push women to stay quiet and follow expected norms. This removes diverse and critical voices from the media. The paper ends with suggestions for fairer hiring and better digital rules that care about gender issues.

The Popularity of Electronic Mobile Payments: Based on QR Codes
type: item
description: This paper examines the widespread adoption of QR code-based mobile payments in China, analyzing the economic, technological, and social factors driving its popularity, while also addressing the associated security risks and challenges. The convenience, speed, and low infrastructure cost of QR code payments have made them especially prevalent among small businesses and street vendors, supported by government digital initiatives, high smartphone penetration, and consumer willingness to embrace new technologies. However, the rapid growth has also led to rising incidents of fraud, such as counterfeit payment codes, phishing scams, and unauthorized data collection, exacerbated by regulatory gaps and fragmented oversight. In contrast, the limited adoption of QR code payments in many foreign countries is attributed to well-established credit card systems, stricter data privacy laws, and the lack of standardized frameworks. The paper further explores policy responses, drawing on international best practices from countries like Singapore, India, and the European Union, including unified technical standards, strong customer authentication, open banking models, and cross-institutional anti-fraud collaboration. It proposes localized recommendations for China, such as enhancing regulatory oversight, promoting interoperability, strengthening data protection, and improving public awareness. The study concludes that while QR code payments have revolutionized financial transactions in China, a balanced approach integrating innovation with robust security and regulatory frameworks is essential for sustainable development and potential global expansion.

Emerging Trends in Translation Criticism in China (1992-2024): A Scientometric Analysis in CiteSpace
type: item
description: This study employs the bibliometric tool CiteSpace to systematically analyze 354 articles on translation criticism published in CSSCI and Peking University core journals between 1992 and 2024. By constructing multi-dimensional visual maps of keyword co-occurrence, institutional collaboration, author networks, and thematic evolution, the study uncovers the developmental trajectory, research hotspots, and future trends in this field. The results indicate that translation criticism research in China has undergone four stages—initial exploration, theoretical construction, comprehensive expansion, and peak development—gradually forming a research system centered on translation theory, translator behavior, and cultural criticism. Universities in East China constitute the core research force, though inter-institutional collaboration networks remain relatively sparse. Research hotspots include translation standards, literary translation, translator behavior criticism, and the cultural turn, while future research is expected to deepen in dimensions such as AI empowerment, localized practice, and ethical reflection. This study aims to provide data support and theoretical reference for the systematic and disciplinary development of translation criticism.

Research on Transportation in Ragtime
type: item
description: E.L. Doctorow's Historiographic Metafiction Ragtime is studied from the narrative function of transportation, the various significances in the writing of Postmodern Literature on transportation is explored. Trains are both path for social mobility and the American dream and reveal the alienation and disillusionment of the modern subject, ships not only carry the logic of imperialism and capital expansion but also embody global hegemony and cultural plunder, cars, as products of modern industrial production, reflect racial plight and dignity demand. The novel revealed the contradictions and crises behind the myth of mobility through three types of representative transportation, reflected the multidimensional complexity of history, society, and politics, and embodied postmodernism's questioning and deconstruction for grand historical narratives.

title: The "Central Axis Sequence of Time and Season - Festivals and Seasons Study Tour in Beijing and China": An Exploration of the Innovative Practice and Effectiveness of the Festivals and Seasons Cultural Study Programme
description: In this paper, we take the "Central Axis Sequence - Festive Seasons Study Tour to Beijing and China" project as an example to explore the innovative practice and effectiveness of the Festive Seasons Culture Study Tour. Combined with the national traditional culture education policy, the project integrates the twenty-four solar terms culture with the culture of Beijing's central axis through customised study routes, professional lectures, and interactive experiences, providing a unique cultural experience for young people. The study, drawing on cultural identity theory and experiential learning theory, constructed an analysis framework and found that the project significantly enhanced the youth's knowledge of festival culture, promoted cultural inheritance and innovation, and strengthened their cultural self-confidence. The project's innovative initiatives include customized route design, professional explanations and interactive experiences, a cultural gallery and aesthetic classroom, and the integration of cultural and creative products and technology. Analysis of the results shows that the project has continued to expand its social influence, covering primary and secondary schools and communities in many places, and serving more than 10,000 young people. This paper constructs a three-in-one educational model of "cultural identity - experiential learning - spatial production", which provides theoretical guidance and a practical paradigm for the festival culture study programme.

Ranciere's Discussion on Internal Contradictions of Literature
type: item
description: Ranciere's theory of art regime is a completely new paradigm of art criticism, and it conveys the idea that aesthetics and politics themselves are isomorphic. Among the three art regimes, only the aesthetic regime implements the principle of political equality and has a new type of vision that attaches equal importance to thought and image, and it is summarized as the "language-thought" principle and the "non-discrimination" principle, respectively. These two principles present a state of contradiction and struggle in literary works and become the driving force for the development of literature.

Review of Research on the Negative Innovation Performance Feedback and Corporate Overinvestment
type: item
description: Insufficient innovation momentum and imbalanced investment efficiency both constrain socio-economic development. The key to addressing these two issues lies in activating the innovation potential of micro-enterprises and preventing irrational investment. While extensive research exists on performance feedback related to economic indicators, studies on those associated with other objectives remain scarce. Meanwhile, a research gap persists concerning the impact on corporate investment efficiency from the corporate behavior perspective. Against this backdrop, this paper analyzes the research contexts of innovation dilemmas and overinvestment, highlighting the necessity of studying their interrelationship. Additionally, following a brief review of the behavioral theory of the firm, threat-rigidity theory, and prospect theory, this paper synthesizes relevant literature on innovation performance feedback and overinvestment, and offers prospects for future research.

Spatial Optimization of Regional Inclusive Preschool Education Resources in the Context of Low Fertility Rate System Dynamics Research
type: item
description: Against the background of the increasing trend of low fertility rate, the supply and demand structure of regional preschool education resources has undergone profound changes, and the structural imbalance of "excess places and scarcity of high-quality places" coexisting with "difficult to enroll in kindergartens and vacant kindergartens" occurring in some regions. Based on the dynamic feedback characteristics of the education system and the decision-making mechanism of multiple actors, the study constructs a simulation model combining system dynamics and multi-actor modeling, and comprehensively simulates the interactive process of "births-supply-demand-finance-behavior-policy" in order to explore the spatial optimization path of the regional inclusive pre-school education resources. The results show that under different policy scenarios, the key indicators of the system show significant differences; especially under the path of financial subsidy enhancement and quality orientation, the efficiency of resource allocation and the equity of education are significantly improved. Further simulations show that policy tools such as the dynamic regulation mechanism, regional differentiation strategy and parental guidance in choosing schools are effective in alleviating structural conflicts. The results of this study suggest that, in the face of the risk of resource mismatch brought about by demographic changes, it is necessary to achieve the prospective optimal allocation of inclusive education resources through system modeling and feedback regulation.
