Modern practise of financing higher education: an analysis of the experience of OECD countries and the Republic of Kazakhstan

Relevance. The study examines higher education financing systems in OECD countries and Kazakhstan, analyzing the contributions of different funding sources. This is relevant as education funding impacts access, quality, and economic development. Purpose. The main goal of the study is to determine the share of participation of the state, the private sector and other entities in financing the higher education system in the OECD countries in comparison with the Republic of Kazakhstan. Methodology. The research used economic and statistical methods, comparative analysis, and expert evaluation. Data was gathered from OECD, World Bank, UNESCO, and Kazakhstan government reports and statistics. Results. The study found four main models of higher education financing among OECD countries, varying in tuition costs and student support. Most OECD countries spend over 1.5% of GDP on higher education, with the public sector as the main funder in European countries. Kazakhstan spends only 0.3% of GDP on higher education, with 70% of students self-funding their education. Conclusions. Kazakhstan's higher education financing system provides limited government support and low tuition fees, resembling the fourth OECD model. To improve competitiveness, Kazakhstan needs to increase investment in higher education and human capital development, expanding funding sources and mechanisms based on OECD country experiences. The current grant allocation system is not equitable for low-income students and needs reform. Keywords: higher education; state funding; private sector; state budget expenditures

Ретроспективний аналіз споживання основних груп харчових продуктів населенням України

The purpose of the article is to analyze trends in the nature of consumption by the population of Ukraine during 2000-2021 of food substances and energy, as well as the main groups of food products based on statistical indicators of the State Statistics Service of Ukraine. Materials and methods. The study included the analysis of information from national government statistics on population nutrition and its changes over a long period. The results. The nutrition structure of the population of Ukraine does not meet the requirements for rational nutrition. The analysis of the consumption of the main groups of food products since 2010 shows a gradual decrease in consumption and an unbalanced diet of the population. A decrease in the consumption of meat and meat products (less than recommended by 33.75%), milk and dairy products (less by 46.97%), fruits and vegetables (less by 34.44%), fish and fish products ( less by 34%). Low total caloric content of the diet and low estimated calcium content were also found. According to data on food consumption by the Ukrainian population compared to similar indicators in other countries, low consumption of meat and meat products, fish and vegetable oil, moderate consumption of sugar is noted. milk and milk products, significant consumption of vegetables and potatoes. Conclusions. The revealed trends in the structure of nutrition clearly indicate a significant impact of these changes on the life of the population, in particular, on the formation of health and an increase in the risk of developing food-dependent diseases. The nutritional status of Ukrainians requires careful attention and intervention to preserve and improve the health of the population.

Does environmental pollution reduce residents’ income? Evidence from CFPS in China

Understanding the relationship between environmental pollution and residents’ income is extremely important for promoting sustained progress and high-quality economic growth. This research examines the impact, mechanism, and heterogeneity of environmental contamination on residents’ earnings by fusing the micro data from China Family Panel Survey with the macro data of government statistics. The results reveal that environmental degradation has a significantly negative impact on residents’ individual income. Further research on the intermediary mechanism finds that environmental pollution plays a harmful role in residents’ income by reducing residents’ subjective well-being and labor employment. Besides, the income effect of environmental pollution is significantly heterogeneous among different regions and differentiated groups. The deteriorating environmental quality widens urban–rural income gap and increases wage inequality of inhabitants in eastern, central, and western regions of China. The gender income gap and the income disparity between different income brackets also expand with environmental deterioration. These findings not only prove that long-term development at the cost of the ecological environment is undesirable, but also demonstrate the important role of the improvement of ecological environmental quality in promoting human well-being.

Planning for tourism under uncertainty: lessons from Macao, China (2002–2022)

ABSTRACT Drawing on the perspective of governance and planning uncertainties mentioned in Abbott 's 2005 and 2009 articles, namely, “Understanding and managing the unknown: The nature of uncertainty in planning” and “Planning for complex metropolitan regions: A better future or a more certain one?” , and several urban planning theories, this study examined the types of planning uncertainty that Macao (China), experienced from 2002 to 2022, and the planning approaches it adopted to tackle the uncertainties. A mixed research method was adopted. Fifteen qualitative face-to-face interviews with key informants were conducted, and secondary sources of data, such as government plans, reports, and statistics, were also reviewed. Results indicated that environmental, casual, value, organisational, and chance uncertainties emerged at three different stages of Macao's tourism development. To deal with these uncertainties, a variety of planning approaches were adopted, including guided flexible planning, comprehensive planning, communicative planning, and adaptive learning. This study contributed a novel perspective to examine tourism planning uncertainties over time. It emphasised the importance of a flexible planning approach in tackling uncertainties of growing complexity. The findings also shed light on how planners can strengthen their capacity for tackling uncertainty.

(Mis)Representing Ethnicity in UK Government Statistics and Its Implications for Violence Inequalities

The question of how we measure, categorise, and represent ethnicity poses a growing challenge for identifying and addressing ethnic inequalities. Conceptual critiques and qualitative studies highlight the complexities and challenges of measuring ethnicity, yet there remains a lack of quantitative studies investigating the implications of these complexities for inequalities research. This paper addresses this gap by scrutinizing methodological processes and analysing the implications of measurement and categorisation in the Crime Survey for England and Wales (CSEW), critiquing the UK’s standardised measurement of ethnicity in national survey data and government statistics. Based on our comparative quantitative analysis of standardised ethnicity categories and regional origins and our evaluation of the CSEW and census’ methodologies, we propose an alternative categorisation of ethnicity, focusing on the ‘Mixed’, ‘Asian’, and ‘Latinx/Hispanic’ ethnic groups. Using adjusted crosstabulations and logistic regression models, we found variations in ethnic patterns of violence based on standardised measures and our alternative recategorisation, particularly relating to the distinction between ‘Asian’ sub-groups, the recategorisation of ‘Mixed’ ethnicities, and the inclusion of ‘Latinx/Hispanic’ as a distinctive ethnic group. Our findings reveal valuable insights into the implications of ethnic categorisation for understanding violence inequalities, with significant implications for further policy and research areas.

The Influence of Peers on the Gender Divide Within Secondary Technology Education in Aotearoa, New Zealand

According to New Zealand government statistics, there is a consistent male–female divide within technology education in secondary schools, resulting in an ongoing underrepresentation of male students in fashion and textiles and female students in computer science and resistant materials learning areas. This underrepresentation is concerning as it contradicts the inclusion promoted in the New Zealand Curriculum and may contribute to reduced opportunities for a talented and diverse workforce. A large body of literature is dedicated to the underrepresentation of female students in STEM fields and has predominantly focused on female students in mathematics and science. However, minimal research focuses on the technology curriculum within the Aotearoa New Zealand context. This qualitative exploratory study investigated students’ perceptions of gender-typing and gender stereotypes within technology education and the experiences of students engaged in technology subjects in which they are gender minorities. Data were gathered through semi-structured interviews. The findings from the thematic analysis revealed that peers and the need for social connection impacted the experiences of gender minority students in their class and influenced their subject selection.

A reassessment of trends and rural–urban/regional differences in the total fertility rate in China, 2000–2020: analyses of the 2020 national census data

The decline in the total fertility rate (TFR) is a key driver of population change and has important implications for population health and social development. However, China’s TFR has been a considerable controversy due to a lack of high-quality data. Therefore, this study used the 2020 national population census of China (NPCC) data and reverse survival method to reassess temporal trends in the TFRs and to reexamine rural–urban differences and regional variations in TFRs from 2000 to 2020 in China. Overall, there were significant gaps between the estimated and reported TFRs before 2020, and the estimated TFRs based on the 2020 NPCC data remained higher than the reported TFRs from government statistics. Although TFRs rebounded shortly in the years after the two-child policy, they have shown a wavelike decline since 2010. Additionally, the estimated TFRs fluctuated below 1.5 children per woman in urban areas compared to above 1.8 in rural areas, but the rural–urban differences continued to decrease. Regarding geographic regional variations, the estimated TFRs in all regions displayed a declining trend during 2010–2020, especially in rural areas. Large decreases of over 25% in TFRs occurred in the north, east, central, and northwest regions. In addition to changing the birth policy, the government and society should adopt comprehensive strategies, including reducing the costs of marriage, childbearing, and child education, as well as promoting work-family balance, to encourage and increase fertility levels.

Spatial and Socioeconomic Inequalities in Cesarean Section Deliveries in Urban Settings in Dakar, Senegal

As part of an initiative aimed at reducing maternal and child mortality, Senegal implemented a policy of free Cesarean section (C-section) since 2005. Despite the implementation, C-section rates have remained low and significant large disparities in access, particularly in major cities such as Dakar. This paper aims to assess C-section rates and examines socioeconomic inequalities in C-section use in the Dakar region between 2005 and 2019. This study incorporates data from various sources, including the health routine data within District Health Information Software 2 (DHIS2) platform, government statistics on slum areas, and data from Demographic and Health Surveys (DHS). A geospatial analysis was conducted to identify locations of Comprehensive emergency obstetric and Newborn Care (CEmONC) services using the Direction des Travaux Géographiques et Cartographiques (DTGC) databases and satellite imagery from the Google Earth platform. The analytical approach encompassed univariate, bivariate, and multivariate analyses. The C-section rate fluctuated over the years, increasing from 11.1% in 2005 to 16.4% in 2011, declined to 9.8% in 2014, and then raised to 13.3% in 2019. The wealth tertile demonstrated a positive correlation with C-sections in urban areas of the Dakar region. Geospatial analyses revealed that women residing in slum areas were less likely to undergo C-section deliveries. These findings underscore the importance of public health policies extending beyond merely providing free C-section delivery services. Strategies that improve equitable access to C-section delivery services for women across all socioeconomic strata are needed, particularly targeting the poor women and those in urban slums.

The effect of educational attainment on birthrate in Japan: an analysis using the census and the vital statistics from 2000 to 2020

BackgroundIn Japan, difference in birth rates depending on educational attainment has not been investigated. This study aimed to reveal birth rates in Japan depending on the highest level of educational attainment and their trends over the years using nationwide government statistics data.MethodsIndividual-level data from Vital Statistics and the Census from 2000, 2010, and 2020 were used for birth and population data, respectively. Data linkage was conducted for males and females in the Census and fathers and mothers in the Vital Statistics using information about gender, household, nationality, marital status, birth year, birth month, prefecture, and municipality for individuals. The birth rate was calculated by gender, a five-year age group, the highest level of educational attainment achieved, and year. In addition, the slope index of inequality (SII) and relative index of inequality (RII) were calculated to evaluate the degree of inequality in birth rates, depending on the educational attainment.ResultsBirth rates were higher in persons with lower educational attainment compared to those with a higher educational attainment among males and females in their twenties, while they tended to be higher in persons with higher educational attainment among those in their thirties and forties. Additionally, an increase in the birth rate from 2000 to 2020 was the largest in university graduates among males aged 25–49 years and women aged 30–49 years, and a decrease in the birth rate was the smallest in university graduates among males and females aged 20–24 years. As a result, SII and RII increased from 2000 to 2020 among males and females in their thirties and forties.ConclusionsIn conclusion, persons with higher educational attainment tended to have a relatively favorable trend in the birth rate compared with persons with lower educational attainment in recent decades. It suggested that enhanced administrative support for individuals with lower educational attainment or lower socioeconomic status may be required to ameliorate the declining birth rate in Japan.

Ecological risk assessment under the PSR framework and its application to shallow urban lakes.

Shallow urban lakes are naturally vulnerable to ecosystem degradation. Rapid urbanization in recent decades has led to a variety of aquatic problems such as eutrophication, algal blooms, and biodiversity loss, increasing the risk to lake-wide ecological sustainability. Instead of a simple binary assessment of ecological risk, holistic evaluation frameworks that consider multiple stressors and receptors can provide a more comprehensive assessment of overall ecological risk. In this study, we analyzed a combined dataset of government statistics, remote sensing images, and 1year of field measurements to develop an index system for urban lake ecological risk assessment based on the pressure-state-response (PSR) framework. We used the developed ecological safety index (ESI) system to evaluate the ecological risk for three urban lakes in Jiangsu Province, China: Lake Yangcheng-LYC, Lake Changdang-LCD, and Lake Tashan-LTS. LYC and LTS were classified as "mostly safe" and "generally recognized as safe," respectively, while LCD was assessed as having "potential ecological risk." Our data suggest that socioeconomic pressure and aquatic health are the two main factors affecting the ecological risk in both LYC and LCD. The ecological risk of LTS could be improved more effectively if regional management plans are well implemented. Our study highlights the pressure of external wastewater loading, low forest-grassland coverage, and lake shoreline damage on the three selected urban lakes. The findings of this study can inform watershed management for lake ecosystem restoration and environmental sustainability.

The ‘haves and have-nots’ of social support during police recruitment: why the playing field is anything but level

ABSTRACT Current police recruitment research is often focused on disproportionate outcomes based upon identity-based categories such as race, ethnicity, or gender. National government statistics and political discourse support this research agenda, indicating a significant recruitment gap in representation in England and Wales. This gap has resulted in the design and use of ‘in-house’ positive action initiatives for police recruitment, with little examination of their impact or otherwise. To understand this research gap, this paper applies a labour market lens to police recruitment. This study contributes to existing research by exploring how police recruits navigate the recruitment process using their social resources. It represents 27 in-depth, participant-led, long-form interviews within an English Constabulary, informed by the theory of Social Embeddedness. It explores how candidates who did not receive positive action navigated and perceived their recruitment process, whilst using their friends, family, and acquaintances for both instrumental and pastoral support. This is contrasted against those candidates that utilised positive action initiatives. The results illustrate developed social embeddedness within police recruitment in the researched constabulary. Recruits who drew heavily upon social contacts experienced instrumental and pastoral support throughout the recruitment process. Some stages of recruitment were more socially embedded than others, resulting in some specific, instrumental advantages. The nature of this social support evidences how disproportionality can be generated in police recruitment. Candidates using positive action initiatives experienced negative, pastoral social support, and temporal instrumental support – illuminating a very different journey during their presocialisation into policing. This finding underpins evidentially informed positive action interventions.

PENGARUH STATUS KEPEGAWAIAN DAN TUNTUTAN PROFESIONALISME TERHADAP PENGUPAHAN TENAGA KESEHATAN

In many cases, the wages of health workers are still below the average regional/provincial minimum wage (UMR/UMP). This can have an impact on the motivation and fulfilment of health workers' performance standards. In addition, the high level of risk in the work environment requires physical and spiritual fitness which costs money. Based on these problems, this research tries to examine the influence of employment status and demands for professionalism on the wages of health workers for nursing health workers, who have the largest number in both government and private institutions. This type of research is normative-empirical, the data used is secondary data. Secondary data was obtained from library research sourced from Institute reports, official government statistics, regulations as primary, secondary, and tertiary legal sources. From the results of the study, information was obtained that employment status and professional responsibilities have a significant influence on wage standards in the form of salaries and allowances for ASN/PPPK which are regulated in applicable laws and regulations. Meanwhile, in private institutions, the amount is regulated in the non-employee agreement for state civil servants (private sector), given in accordance with the work agreement or collective work agreement.

Four-decades evolutionary development of municipal solid waste management in China: Implications for sustainable waste management and circular economy.

This study collected data on waste generation and management in China between 1979 and 2020 from government statistics and literature and reviewed the development of municipal solid waste (MSW) management in China. The extended stochastic impact by regression on population, affluence and technology (STIRPAT) model was employed to identify the driving forces of MSW generation, and the cointegration analysis showed that economy (0.35, t = -3.47), industrial structure (3.34, t = -20.77) and urbanization (-1.5, t = 5.678) were the significant socioeconomic driving forces in the long run. By employing the framework of evolutionary economics, this study then investigated the internal rules of long-term interaction between socioeconomic factors and MSW management. The results indicate that, in the long run, MSW management development can be viewed as an evolutionary process that includes a continuous adaptation to external socioeconomic factors and the co-evolution of internal institutions and technologies. Adaptation and diversity of institutions and technologies play an important role in achieving sustainable waste management and circular economy (CE). This study offers a novel evolutionary perspective for explaining dynamic changes of MSW management in China, as well as recommendations for emerging economies to achieve sustainable waste management and CE goals.

ОПЫТ РАЗВИТИЯ СИСТЕМЫ НАЦИОНАЛЬНЫХ ПАРКОВ И ЭКОЛОГИЧЕСКОГО ТУРИЗМА В РОССИЙСКОЙ ФЕДЕРАЦИИ (1983–2023 гг.)

Against the background of the growing environmental awareness among the population and the reorientation of touristflows toward domestic tourism as well as active state support for tourism development, the Russian network of national parks, established in 1983, is experiencing considerable expansion, and an increasing significance of ecological tourism for its development isbecoming more and more noticeable. In recent years, land allocation for new national parks has been pursued with the aim of preserving unique ecosystems, creating conditions for organized outdoor recreation, and promoting environmental education. This article examines the history of development and the current state of the national parks system in Russia as well as the implementation of ecologicaltourism practices in the parks, taking into account key strategic documents and changes in the legislation of the Russian Federation.Onthe basis of the previously developed stages of the protected areas network formation up to 2001, a characterization of new, contemporary stages related to the implementation of the national project Ecology is proposed. Based on government statistics, the currentstate and specific features of funding for the national parks system are characterized. Through the study of the process of creating fournew national parks – Zigalga, Katalyk, Samursky, and Salair – the patterns and common problems of sustainable development ofecological tourism are analyzed, including conflicts with local communities, low tourist flow levels, and the need for the planning oftourism activities. The analysis based on the case-study methodology revealed the main issues that arose during the organization of thenew national parks in the Russian Federation, which include determining the recreational load, the maximum permissible and optimalflow of tourists and excursionists, and the possibilities for infrastructure placement. The authors have identified the main ways toimprove the management system of ecological tourism in the parks.

Village Development and Welfare Enhancement: The Influence of Area Size, Population, and Village Fund Transfer: Evidence from Bangkalan, Indonesia

This study analyzes the influence of area, population, and village fund transfers on improving community welfare in Bangkalan Regency, Indonesia. Using regression analysis methods, data were collected from various sources, including government statistics and field surveys. The results show that village area has no significant effect on community welfare. In contrast, population has a negative effect, indicating challenges in the distribution of village fund benefits in villages with larger populations. However, village fund transfers are shown to have a significant positive effect on community welfare, indicating that increasing village fund allocations can improve infrastructure, basic services, and empower communities. This study emphasizes the importance of good management of village funds to achieve the goal of improving welfare. These findings are expected to be a reference for policymakers and practitioners in designing effective strategies to improve the welfare of rural communities. Recommendations for further research include exploring other variables, such as village management capacity, to provide a more comprehensive picture of the factors that influence welfare in rural areas.

Features of the demand for specialists in the labor market in the sphere of physical education and sports of the Russian Federation

The present investigation aims to evaluate the labor market indicators and qualitative characteristics of the need for specialists in the physical culture and sports industry of the Russian Federation. This study based on the analyze of official government statistics about staff persons in the physical culture and sports and data gathered from a questionnaire survey of organizations operating in the physical culture and sports in 59 regions of the Russian Federation. “Saint-Petersburg scientific-research institute for physical culture” (SPbNIIFK) carried out the survey in 2023 with the participation of 674 state and municipal organizations. The survey conducted using specialized software and a survey web service created by SPbNIIFK’s employees to collect, process, and analyze the data. The research revealed regional differences and indicators of the labor market with the identification of trends in demand for specific qualifications. The collected data may be used to support government and municipal management on personnel policy issues, to create suggestions for employers on attracting skilled personnel, inform job seekers and employees in the physical education and sports about trends in demand for various specialties, and to improve their market labor competitiveness.

РЕГУЛЯТОРНІ РЕАЛІЇЇ ОСУЧАСНЕННЯ МІЖДИСЦИПЛІНАРНИХ ЗВ’ЯЗКІВ У СИСТЕМІ ВИЩОЇ ОСВІТИ ПРИ НАБУТТІ ЕКОНОМІЧНОЇ ОСВІТИ В ГАЛУЗЕВИХ ЗВО

In Ukraine, as part of the implementation of the higher education system, the training of students in higher education institutions is carried out on the basis of the List of Fields of Knowledge and Specialties in which university students are trained. This document is a framework regulatory document and over time has been amended and supplemented in response to the current challenges of the modern higher education system. Currently, the Ministry of Education and Science of Ukraine has prepared for public discussion a draft resolution of the Cabinet of Ministers of Ukraine “On Approval of the List of Fields of Knowledge and Specialties for Training of Higher Education Students”. The structure and number of the fields of knowledge and specialties is close to the list of fields of the International Standard Classification of Education; and the document is another step towards the transition to common statistical standards and classification systems to harmonize and ensure the comparability of government statistics with such international standards and recommendations as the UN international standard classification systems. The article analyzes the regulatory elements of the modernization of interdisciplinary relations in the system of higher education using the example of economic education in industry-specific higher education institutions by means of a comparative analysis. The article is based on the interdisciplinary links of economic subjects with the philosophy and humanities and special technical subjects taught in industry-specific universities. In the context of this direction, the author’s view on the interdisciplinary relations of disciplines in educational and professional programs as a certain meaningful scientific environment, in the context of “smaller” and “wider” philosophical circles in terms of the actual state and with the aim of assessing further progressive development based on the potential state, is represented. The author's view of interdisciplinary relations through the philosophical circles of the scientific environment became the basis for the introduction of the idea of for mathematical calculations of quantitative and qualitative assessments of the level of interdisciplinarity using such mathematical apparatus as a Venn diagram, and using a Euler’s circle for the visual representation of certain interdisciplinary relations. Based on the results of the calculations and a developed actual model of interdisciplinary relations in the educational and professional program, it is proposed to further compare the model with the reference standard of the balanced model of the interdisciplinarity system in the process of meaningful construction of the educational program in the specialty as a scientific environment.

ИНСТИТУТ ЧЛЕНСТВА В ГУБЕРНСКИХ СТАТИСТИЧЕСКИХ КОМИТЕТАХ: АНАЛИЗ ЗАКОНОДАТЕЛЬНОГО РЕГУЛИРОВАНИЯ И ПЕРСОНАЛЬНОГО СОСТАВА (НА МАТЕРИАЛАХ КОСТРОМСКОЙ ГУБЕРНИИ)

The purpose of the article is to analyze the diverse activity of the Kostroma provincial Statistical Committee members. The author examines the influence of the personnel on the effectiveness and efficiency of the provincial Statistical Committee work. Special attention is paid to the evolution of legislation and regulation of membership in provincial Statistical Committees, and to analysis of their social and professional structure. Unpublished archival materials of the Kostroma provincial Statistical Committee of the second half of the XIX century are used in the study. In addition, records and statistical materials, periodicals and personal papers are examined. Special-historical (problem-chronological, historical-systemic and comparative-historical methods) and general scientific methods (analysis, synthesis, induction and deduction) are used in the study. Due to the archival materials analysis, the author concludes that the Kostroma provincial Statistical Committee stuff consisted of various social members. Local clergymen made up the committee majority. It was a typical feature of the provincial Statistical Committees of the Russian Empire. The committee stuff also consisted of raznochintsy and burghers, local merchants and even peasants. The ability and desire to devote himself to the study of various province issues were the only condition for the Committee membership. A wide social structure of the provincial Statistical Committees facilitated the democratization of their activities in the second half of the XIX century. An active part of the urban community, representatives of the intelligentsia and officials also belonged to the Committee. The wide social structure highly raised the status of the Committee and made it one of the leading scientific centers in the province. The research results provide a better understanding the special activities of provincial Statistical Committees, which were a synthesis of state institution and scientific society, and identifying Committees importance in the formation of national government statistics, their contribution to the scientific development, educational and local history activities in the Russian province in the second half of the 19th century. The research materials can be used in the development of special courses and special seminars on local history, the statistics history, and the public life of Russian society in the post-reform period.

Struggling with inequality and the uncertain reterritorialization of migrants: A case study of Guangzhou

The citizenization of migrants has become a challenging practical issue and a significant research topic within the realm of social justice. Nowadays, with a large number of studies concerning the unjust lives of migrants, few researches probe their struggle with inequality. This struggling is reflected in space, in the reterritorialization of the migrants. Reterritorialization involves the reconstruction of the meaning and function of a territory. Deterritorialization meaning the weakening of territoriality. This paper concentrates on the reterritorialization of migrants, and attempts to fill the research gap through an in-depth case study of a representative urban village located in Guangzhou. The data for this study were collected through three rounds of questionnaire surveys conducted with migrants in 2016, 2020, and 2023. Government statistics and semi-structured interviews with local government officials and original villagers are also used in the research. It has been found the initial territorialization of KL Village was driven by the city’s development and the demand for industries and migrant labor. Subsequently, the concentration of migrants led to the transformation of the village into an urban village that caters to professional markets. The distinctive characteristics of the industry and the lifestyles of migrants resulted in the departure of local villagers, making migrants the sole users of the village and facilitating its reterritorialization. Migrants reterritorialized various systems within the village, including the commercial system, public service system, and transportation system. However, the reterritorialization remains uncertain. The urban villages may undergo deterritorialization when industries decline or when significant events with negative societal impacts occur. This paper further emphasizes the importance of governments recognizing the circumstances faced by migrants and ensuring the provision of stable spaces for them. In general, this paper makes an empirical contribution by offering a fresh perspective to the study of migrants and territorialization in China.
