Life and Death in Yu Hua’s Novels——Taking To Live and The Seventh Day as Examples

Yu Hua’s works have consistently excelled in exploring the fundamental meaning of life within tales of hardship and tragedy. Through a series of books such as To Live and The Seventh Day, Yu Hua has crafted multiple tragic stories featuring characters from different historical periods and with diverse personalities, thereby expressing his unique perspectives on life and death. The existing studies mostly analyze the life and death plot in isolation and lack an analysis of the influence of traditional culture on the formation of their concepts. This paper will take the original texts of the novels To Live and The Seventh Day as the basis, and use the method of textual analysis to analyze the views of life and death in the novels. Through the study, it is found that Yu Hua’s works present a unique new style of death aesthetics and life philosophy concepts. Through the research, it is discovered that Yu Hua’s works exhibit a unique new aesthetic of death and philosophy of existence. Yu Hua, a trailblazer in avant-garde literature, integrates traditional views on life and death with contemporary societal concerns. Through an exploration of the fragility of human physiology and the resilience of the human spirit, Yu Hua’s works offer a fresh perspective on life and death for individuals grappling with existential uncertainties. This aids in guiding individuals to seek the significance of their own lives and adopt an objective stance towards mortality.

Cultivation of Youth Patriotism in the New Era: Current Situation, Objectives and Practical Approaches

Youth patriotism education is an important part of maintaining national unity and promoting the growth and success of young people to realize the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation in the new era. However, youth patriotism education in the new era presents the following status quo: firstly, the education method and content are single and boring; secondly, it is deeply impacted by the negative information on the Internet and the invasion of diversified ideologies and cultures; and thirdly, the cultural self-confidence is weakened, and the influence of traditional culture is declining. Patriotic education for young people in the new era should aim at realizing young people's emotional identity, ideological identity and behavioral identity of knowledge and action. To this end, patriotic education in the new era can be adjusted from the adjustment of the form and content of patriotic education, strengthening the governance of multiple subjects in cyberspace, as well as basing on traditional culture and firming up cultural self-confidence, with a view to enhancing the effectiveness of patriotic education for young people in the new era.

Is it really better to "die" than "live"? Reflections on the practice of "death with dignity" in China.

To analyze the causes of the controversy caused by "death with dignity" in China, and to provide some useful thoughts for the practical exploration of "death with dignity." By combing the periodical literature, legal texts and practice, we find that the Medical Regulations of Shenzhen Special Economic Zone, which was revised and passed by China in 2022, recognized the legal effect of "living will" for the first time in legislation, which triggered a wide-ranging social discussion on "death with dignity" and brought many controversies. Due to the influence of traditional culture, policies and laws, medical service supply capacity and other factors, death with dignity suffers from great practical resistance. The exploration of "death with dignity" system needs to start with the problems encountered in practice, focusing on cultivating a good system implementation environment, strengthening the top-level design of "death with dignity" system, and improving the national social security system for hospice care.

Confucian culture and corporate default risk: Assessing the governance influence of traditional culture

Given the prevalence of debt default incidents, this study investigates the influence of Confucian culture on corporate default risk in China. The results underscore Confucian culture's governance impact on corporate default risk. Channel analysis reveals that Confucian culture mitigates the risk of debt default by raising cash holdings and fostering a trustworthy business environment. Furthermore, the legal environment is found to positively moderate the impact of Confucian culture on debt default risk, whereas foreign cultural shocks and local corruption exert a negative influence. These findings not only enrich the literature on mitigating corporate default risk and promoting economic growth but also emphasize the enduring significance of China's revered traditional culture.

Communication and Influence of Traditional Culture Based on Social Network Analysis

Social media significantly impacts traditional cultures, yet existing methods struggle to capture the delicate complexities of online cultural discussions. This lack of depth limits understanding of how traditions evolve and adapt in the digital age. To address this, CaCCGAN: Social Culture Analysis, a framework leveraging social network analysis (SNA) is proposed. Content-Aware Cycle-Consistent Generative Adversarial Network (CaCCGAN) explores communication and influence dynamics surrounding traditional culture on social media platforms. CaCCGAN gathers real-time data on traditional culture from Weibo, a prominent Chinese platform, focusing on relevant keywords. By employing Term Frequency-Inverse Document Frequency (TF-IDF) and a Binary Waterwheel Plant Optimization Algorithm (BWPOA), CaCCGAN identifies user-tradition relationships, influential users, and online communities. Furthermore, the CaCCGAN model analyzes communication styles and generates content reflecting these relationships. Analyzing this generated content offers valuable insights for stakeholders interested in cultural preservation, targeted marketing campaigns, and content creation strategies. The proposed CaCCGAN: Social Culture Analysis model attains 25.23%, 21.06% and 55.11% higher Precision value and 29.096%, 41.64% and 33.33% higher F1 Score value compared with the existing method such as PA-BiLSTM Neural Encoding for Cultural Adaptation and Emotion Analysis in Modern Media Communication (PA-BiLSTM), MFCSNet: Modeling Musician-Follower Dynamics in a Complex Social Network to Measure Musical Influence (MFCSNet) and Utilizing Social Media Data Analytics to Integrate Traditional Culture Through Digital Media Interaction and Dissemination (I-RankClus-WOA) respectively. This proposed CaCCGAN: Social Culture Analysis model presents a promising approach to understanding the evolving dynamics of communication and influence surrounding traditional culture online.

Superstition, Risk Aversion, and Audit Quality: Evidence from China

SUMMARY We examine whether signing auditors’ perceptions of bad luck related to the Chinese zodiac-year superstition affect audit quality. We argue that these perceptions of bad luck heighten signing auditors’ sense of risk and lead them to act more cautiously in their zodiac years, leading to improved audit quality. We find that clients audited by lead engagement auditors in their zodiac years exhibit lower discretionary accruals and lower propensity to restate. The effects of zodiac-year superstition are evident among lead engagement auditors who are older and hold the partner title. The effects are also evident in large audit firms, which face greater reputation risk, and in provinces with a strong influence of traditional culture. In addition, we find some suggestive evidence that lead engagement auditors may increase audit effort during their zodiac years. Overall, our results support the contention that lead engagement auditors’ zodiac year beliefs positively affect audit quality. JEL Classifications: D81; M40; M42; Z10.

Frog and reptile conservation through the lens of South Africa’s nature-based cultural practices

ABSTRACT Ethnoherpetology improves our understanding of the conservation implications of nature-based cultural practices through investigations of the influence of traditional culture on frog and reptile species (herptiles). Improved understanding of the implications of human activities on these taxa is especially important as herptiles are experiencing global population declines. Furthermore, improved understanding of nature-based cultural practices can better inform conservation planning that includes cultural practices as defined by South African legislation. The herptile-based cultural practices recorded from a sample of 275 online questionnaire respondents and 68 publications show some cultural practices to compel or inspire protection of herptiles. Conversely, other practices were found to pose a conservation risk as they either involve killing herptile species or they perpetuate negative perceptions towards them. Leveraging protective cultural practices as a conservation tool and mitigating culture-motivated threats requires integrating cultural aspects into modern law. Such an integrative approach is possible under South African legislation’s provisions for socially inclusive conservation planning and recognition of customary law. Integrative conservation approaches are also in line with international policy such as the Kunming-Montreal global biodiversity framework. In addition to an inventory of herptile-based cultural practices, the study also assesses their feasibility as conservation tools. Furthermore, this study highlights a need for quantification of their conservation implications (both positive and negative) and aligning protective traditional cultural practices with modern means of law enforcement.

What does the ideal citizen look like in China’s new era? A bottom-up view

ABSTRACT China has reformed the way it nurtures a generation of citizens for the new era of the Xi administration. School curricula have been reformed and more teachers have been trained to deliver political – ideological education. While the central authorities play a crucial role in forging a vision of the ‘ideal’ citizen from the top down, the enactment of centrally promulgated policies and curricula is complicated. This study explores a bottom-up view from the perspective of a group of university teachers, the institutional actors who socialise young people into ‘ideal’ citizens on the ground. Four themes emerge in the informants’ narratives: ideological commitment, abilities, developing a global outlook, and the influence of traditional culture. The paper concludes with a discussion of the interplay between socialist, traditional, and neoliberal rationalities in the making of Chinese citizens.

Study on the influence of Chinese traditional culture on corporate environmental responsibility.

In accordance with the theory of informal institutions, culture exerts a crucial influence on the enactment of corporate social responsibility. Based on the two core variables of Chinese traditional culture and corporate environmental responsibility, we designed a panel data model to investigate the impact of Chinese traditional culture on corporate environmental responsibility and its heterogeneity. The findings indicate the following: 1) Chinese traditional culture can promote the performance of corporate environmental responsibility. 2) Chinese traditional culture has a heterogeneous influence on the environmental responsibility of enterprises that depends on the ownership difference of enterprises; that is, the influence of traditional culture on the environmental responsibility of state-owned enterprises is stronger than that of non-state-owned enterprises. 3) Chinese traditional culture has a heterogeneous influence on the environmental responsibility of enterprises according to the difference in industrial pollution levels; that is, traditional culture has a positive correlation with the environmental responsibility of enterprises in heavily polluting industries and a negative correlation with non-heavily polluting industries. 4) Chinese traditional culture has a heterogeneous influence on corporate environmental responsibility according to geographical differences; that is to say, traditional culture promotes the development of corporate environmental responsibility in the central and western regions, and vice versa in the eastern regions.

Development Challenges and Experience Enlightenment of Vocational Education in China and India under the Influence of Traditional Culture

Development Challenges and Experience Enlightenment of Vocational Education in China and India under the Influence of Traditional Culture

Thailand (ประเทศไทย)

Thailand’s hip hop culture has developed at a very different pace to other prominent early adopters in the Asia-Pacific. Given its late adoption of hip hop in the 1990s through popular music labels (Kita Music, GMM Grammy, Bakery Music, RS Promotion), local DJs, MCs, aerosol artists and breakers negotiated hip hop in a relatively short period – pressurized under local market conditions and influenced by multidirectional flows of hip hop that extended across the region and beyond. Hip hop in Thailand now draws on local traditional cultural influences while also being inspired by an immense flow of expat workers, tourists and transient visitors annually. It is not surprising that immanently polycultural music cultures like hip hop manifest in a number of ways in the Thai context, stratified by degrees of appreciation of international aesthetics and reverence for local Thai cultural history and customs. While hip hop exists across the country, with prominent communities in Chiang Mai, Chon Buri and Udon Thani, it is most notably diverse and concentrated in Bangkok – the place it began and where many pioneers have created their legacy.

Application of Information Technology in the Inheritance and Communication of Tai Chi Culture in the Era of Big Data

With the advent of the era of big data, the development of Internet technology has provided more platforms for the development of traditional culture and expanded the scope of influence of traditional culture. In the development process of Tai Chi, how to give full play to the advantages of information technology, enhance the influence of Tai Chi, and promote the dissemination and inheritance of the Chinese traditional sports culture are the problems that need to be solved at present. This paper took the population of Tai Chi practicing in X community as the investigation object and analyzed the current inheritance and development status of Tai Chi, found out the main problems in the inheritance and development of Tai Chi, and finally put forward the path of using VR technology in information technology for spread. In addition, the satisfaction of residents with the transmission and inheritance of Tai Chi was measured at the policy, economic, social, and technical levels and compared with the satisfaction of residents before and after the application of VR technology through experiments. The results showed that after the use of VR technology, residents were more involved in Tai Chi and had better satisfaction at all levels.

Influence of Border-Keepers' Support on Work-Family Enrichment of Preschool Teachers in China: The Mediating Role of Work-Family Boundary Flexibility.

Based on work-family border theory and work-home resource theory (W-HR), this paper examines the impact of border keeper’s support (organizational support and family support) on work-family enrichment and whether or how work-family boundary flexibility mediates the relationship between border keeper’s support and work-family enrichment. A sample of 504 preschool teachers in Guangdong province, China completed questionnaires. The research results show a two-way process of work-family enrichment for preschool teachers in China. Organizational support was directly and significantly correlated with work-to-family enrichment (WFE), and family support was significantly and directly correlated with family-to-work enrichment (FWE). Organizational support had no significant positive predictive effect on work boundary flexibility which has a significant positive predictive effect on WFE. Family support had a significant positive predictive effect on family boundary flexibility which had a significant positive predictive effect on the FWE. In addition, the study found that family boundary flexibility mediates the relationships between family support and FWE whereas work boundary flexibility did not mediate the relationships between organizational support and WFE. The above research results are partly consistent with the existing research, and partly inconsistent, which is related to the profound influence of traditional culture in Chinese society and the current situation of preschool teachers in China. Such findings have important implications for improving the work-family enrichment of preschool teachers.

Innovative strategies for cultural programmes in the age of fusion media--The Reader as an example

Nowadays, due to the ongoing advancement of Internet technology and the advent of numerous new media, cultural programmes have also quickly changed and innovated. "The Reader," a cultural programme that emphasizes reading and sharing, has drawn a wide following thanks to its slogans "content is king" and "ordinary people." However, as new media technology advances, audiences have new demands for traditional and new media development due to the influence of traditional culture and the requirement for programmes in traditional cultural fields to be transformed, improved, and innovated. The Reader is used as an example in this study to analyze how to create a programme and how to develop interactively with self-media in a multi-media environment.

Barriers to seeking psychosocial support among adult patients with hematologic neoplasms: a qualitative study.

This study aims to explore the barriers that adult patients with hematologic neoplasms experience when seeking psychosocial support. A descriptive qualitative approach was used to investigate the experiences of patients with hematologic neoplasms. Face-to-face, semi-structured, in-depth individual interviews were conducted between June and October 2020 with 17 patients diagnosed with hematologic neoplasms. The interviews were audio-recorded and transcribed verbatim. A thematic analysis was performed to identify the essential themes. Seventeen patients aged 28-67years completed the interviews. Two themes and six subthemes were identified that describe barriers to seeking psychosocial support. Internal barriers included limited communication, negative emotions, social avoidance, and focusing on treatment rather than psychosocial needs; external barriers included traditional cultural influences and lack of professional support. Significant others were the key source for psychosocial support for patients with hematologic neoplasms. Tackling diverse barriers to accessing psychosocial support remains a challenge for these patients. Healthcare providers should continually assess and provide effective support.
