Abstract: Socialism with Chinese characteristics has been the theme of all the theory and practice of the Communist Party of China since the reform and opening up of China, and is a new development of socialism. Socialism with Chinese characteristics adheres to the basic principles of scientific socialism and is the concrete practice of scientific socialism in China, thus its essence is socialism. Specifically, in economic terms, this is expressed by carrying forward the superiority of the basic socialist economic system, in political terms, by insisting on the political nature of the Party's leadership and the principal status of the people, in cultural terms, by taking the cultural self-confidence as the spiritual driving force and guarantee of development; in foreign relations, by devoting to foster a new type of international relations and build a community with a shared future for mankind. It is precisely because we have adhered to the basic principles of scientific socialism that we have achieved world-renowned successes in the reform and opening-up of China, which has laid a solid foundation for realization of the China Dream of the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation and the early completion of a great modern socialist country.

Abstract: Based on the Urban Development Index of Chinese Cities in 2019 and the relevant survey data on youth development in 2011 and 2019, this paper aims to explore the impact of urban development on youth life satisfaction and its mechanism. According to the findings, urban development level and youth life satisfaction are not subject to a linear relationship; youth life satisfaction increases with urban development level, and urban development significantly promotes youth life satisfaction; but after urban development exceeds a certain level, youth life satisfaction declines and is no longer significantly promoted by urban development; the higher the urban development level is, the greater the difference in life satisfaction between urban and rural young people living in the same city is; urban development level acts on youth life satisfaction together with micro social demographic variables such as household registration, age, income, and marital status.

Abstract: In the framework of reflexive practice and taking as the study object the relations between parents and single child experiencing emerging adulthood, this paper makes analysis of characteristics of generational relations and retrospective study of construction of generational intimacy, in order to understand the return to parental authorities and filial piety in urban middle-class families. Study result shows that the core characteristic of generational relations in urban middle-class families is intimacy-based operation of parental authorities and filial piety. It was found out that intimate parenting of parents and negotiating adulthood of children are two reflexive practice mechanisms for return to parental authorities and filial piety. For youth experiencing individuation process, the return to parenting and filial piety is both practice result of intimacy habits and construction of self-identity along the path of negotiating adulthood. From the perspective of micro mechanism of evolution of filial piety culture, this phenomenon reflects the creativity and dependency of reflexive practices on established family systems.

Abstract: The historical activities of Christian missionaries to China in the late Qing Dynasty are not only reflected over a period of a hundred years in history, but in different spatial constructions as well. The early missionaries to China who were subject to the closed-door policy of the Qing court experienced an extremely difficult survival. The treaty system that emerged after the Opium War expanded the physical presence and activity space for missionaries to China. The new and extended space for missionary activities ran into conflict with the original traditional space and brought about an ideological impact. The microscopic physical activities and spatial constructions of the Christian missionaries in China in the late Qing Dynasty are the best footnote to the shaping of the historical narrative model of Christianity in China.

Analysis of the Adjustment Method of Macroeconomic Control Law: from the Perspective of Adjustment Method of Economic Law

Abstract:In China, there has not been a consensus on the adjustment method of economic law, and relevant theoretical researches are still far from sufficient. Therefore, it is difficult to find the adjustment method of macroeconomic control. The adjustment method of macroeconomic control is concerned with the objective, task and effect in line with the law of macroeconomic control, and it is the behavior mode of macroeconomic control under which the government takes measures to regulate economic relations. It is composed of the categories of macroeconomic control behaviors (means of macroeconomic control) and relevant legal consequences. The adjustment method of macroeconomic control law is neither a legal activity nor a legal normal. It can exert an effect on the subject and object of the macroeconomic control law and legal norms, which features the subjective and objective unity. The logical structural elements of legal norms include right or duty and punishment, which corresponds to the means of macroeconomic control and legal consequences. Legal means and administrative means are not consistent with the legal norms of macroeconomic control, so it is not a type of macroeconomic control behavior. The eligible behaviors of macroeconomic control include currency, finance, tax, planning, and exchange rate. The law of macroeconomic control aims to regulate the power and behaviors of macroeconomic control. As a law designed to regulate the economic and social relationship between the macroeconomic regulator (organization) and the regulated subject, the law of macroeconomic control must be only related to the legal consequence, which is either positive or negative. Legal consequence does not merely mean legal responsibility, and the adjustment method of macroeconomic control law is more than the category of macroeconomic control behaviors and legal responsibility.
