LearningMarxism-LeninismClassicsfromthePerspectiveofWorldOutlook/Hou Huiqin(School of Marxism, Chinese Academy of Social Sciences, Beijing 102488，China)

Abstract: Fundamentally, Marxism is a new world outlook, which is the basis of all Marxism. Therefore, to learn Marxism well, the most basic thing is to read Marxism-Leninist classics from the perspective of world outlook, so as to achieve the overall understanding of Marxism. To learn Marxist philosophy world outlook well is the main axis for us to study Marxist-Leninist classics. Our party is good at learning classics, however, to learn Marxism-Leninism classics well, some basic principles should be followed including grasping “spiritual essence” rather than “a few words”, studying systematically rather than fragmentarily, practically rather than emptily, insisting on learning for “finding out the problems for ourselves”, and enhancing the realm of reading by developing learning classics into a way of life. It is a methodological principle to correctly handle the relationship between text and history, between contradiction and category, between theme and discourse, and between words and sentences and spiritual essence.

TheResupervisionofSupervisionPower:LogicandRealisticLandscape/CHEN Peng(Research Center for Incorrupt Government and Governance, Jiangsu Academy of Social Sciences, Nanjing 210004,China)

Abstract: The supervision of power is a multi-faceted process and behavior, which includes not only the supervision of the executors of public power, but also the supervision of the power of supervision. Both the objective data and the theoretical logic of power supervision show that effective supervision of supervisors is the internal requirement for preventing power corruption and improving the level of corruption governance. Through analyzing the corruption cases of provincial and municipal discipline inspection commission secretaries, it is found that the four basic aspects of supervision corruption are direct intervention in cases, using influence to seek private interests, seeking interests for family members，and improper supervision caused by lack of supervision power. The difficulty in supervising the power of supervision is caused by multiple factors: power has the essential characteristic of expansibility, which makes supervisors have the instinct impulse to avoid supervision; the internal absence of institutional structure makes it difficult for supervision to be effectively implemented; information asymmetry makes external supervision in a powerless state; supervision has hysteresis, which seriously eliminates the exertion of supervision efficiency. It is a complex and systematic project to implement effective supervision on supervision power. At present, it is urgent to seek breakthroughs in the following aspects such as insisting on the synchronous promotion of supervision and restriction, building a scientific and reasonable system of supervision and accountability, and strengthening the quantity supply and quality improvement of the supervision system.

StudyontheDemarcationStandardofScienceintheIntelligentEra/QIU Desheng, et al(Department of Philosophy, Southwest University, Chongqing 400715,China)

Abstract: While intelligent science and technology is transforming human’s method of production and lifestyle thoroughly, it also puts forward new challenges to the standard of scientific demarcation. Based on the intelligent era, this paper points out that data, structure and integration should also be the new standards of scientific demarcation in the intelligent era. The rationality of the new standards is demonstrated from the formation process of scientific theory and Figuer’s five indicators of scientific demarcation. By the means of the new standards, natural science will continue to highlight the exemplary characteristics of science, social science will gradually become a precise scientific concept, and some research fields of the humanities will also become members of the science family.

TheRiseof“SoftWork”:theRevertingofHumanNatureintheEraof“Intelligence+”/WANG Shuixing(School of Marxism, Jiangxi Normal University, Nanchang 330022, China)

Abstract: The rapid development of the artificial intelligence technology and its large-scale application make the human society enter the era of “intelligence +”. From criticizing “alienated labor” to proposing “eliminating labor”, Marx and Engels’ thought of the “alienated labor” caused by the elimination of the capitalist private ownership and the division of labor has experienced reality in the era of “intelligence +”. In this era, the great development of the productive forces has created increasingly the sufficient conditions for “eliminating alienated labor”. The rise of “soft work” means that labor returns to a certain degree of the human nature activities. The game between the capital and the labor is in favor of labor. In the Era of “Intelligence +” and the rise of “soft work”, the reform of the rigid labor system and the establishment of a new labor cognitive framework have become the inherent requirements of the development of the times. The whole society should follow the value criteria of coordination, mutual benefits, cooperation and win-win. The temporary nature of capitalism and the inevitability of the socialist history are more prominent, and the labor justice will become the consensus of the whole society. The continuous evolution of the labor form and the labor connotation since the information revolution has confirmed that the era of “intelligence +” is the essential era of reverting to human beings.

CateringIndustryDuringtheCOVID-19Pandemic:ImpactandDifferentiation/Yang Bo, et al(School of Business, Nanjing University, Nanjing 210023, China)

Abstract: The COVID-19 pandemic has caused great impact on China’s consumer industry, but it has also accelerated the process of digital transformation. Taking the catering industry as an example, based on the data of 16508 catering stores in Caimomo SaaS cloud catering management system from December 8, 2019 to July 31, 2020, this paper analyzes the epidemic’s impact on the catering industry in stages with the descriptive statistical methods. Meanwhile, VAR (Vector Autoregression) method was used to empirically test the impact of epidemic on catering industry and the interaction between takeout business and catering industry during the epidemic period. The results show that the impact of the epidemic on the catering industry is phased and heterogeneous, and the catering individuals with longer operation time have stronger anti-risk ability. During the COVID-19 pandemic, the online catering service represented by takeout business played a powerful supplement to the catering industry, and it still performed strongly in the post epidemic period. The catering industry should seize the opportunity of the epidemic situation to expand the takeout market. The catering individuals should enhance the anti-risk ability and prepare well for the sudden risk.

ResearchontheRelationshipbetweenFinancingConstraintsandCompanyMarketValueundertheImpactoftheOutbreakofCOVID-19/LI Zhongze, et al(School of Management, Nanjing University, Nanjing 210093，China)

Abstract: At the beginning of 2020, the outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic has caused the suspension of various economic activities in China. As an important microeconomic entity, listed companies have inevitably been severely impacted. Taking the outbreak of COVID-19 as the background of the event, this paper examines the relationship between the financing constraints of listed companies and the fluctuations of the company’s market value within a certain time window before and after the outbreak from the perspective of the cost of debt capital. The results show that the degree of financing constraints of listed companies is significantly negatively correlated with the cumulative excess return during the event window period, and the more severe the impact of COVID-19, the stronger the degree of negative correlation between the degree of financing constraints and the company value. Further research shows that under the impact of COVID-19, compared with the state-owned enterprises, the correlation between the corporate value of private enterprises and the degree of financing constraints is stronger, and the lower the degree of financial market development, the more significant the impact of financing constraints on corporate value.

TheRealizationMechanismofIntergovernmentalCooperativeGovernanceofRegionalEnvironment/MAO Chunmei，et al(School of Public Administration，Hohai University，Nanjing 211100，China)

Abstract: The intergovernmental collaborative governance of regional environment is the proper choice to deal with regional environmental problems. For this reason, it is necessary to reveal the collaborative realization mechanism of intergovernmental cooperative governance of regional environment. On the analysis of the practical problems of joint prevention and control of air pollution in Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei region, using the principle of order parameter in synergetic theory, this paper identifies the order parameters of the intergovernmental collaborative governance of regional environment including the concept of a community with a shared future, incentive compatible cross-interests, perfect and efficient institutional arrangements and adequate information sharing, which constitute the concept guidance mechanism, interest incentive mechanism, system guarantee mechanism and information entropy reduction mechanism. In order to realize the effective governance of the regional environment in the future, we should actively incubate and cultivate the order parameters, including shaping a common vision, strengthening multi-compensation, perfecting rules and procedures, and breaking down information barriers.

PracticeandReflectionon“Simplification”ofEcologicalGovernance/HU Liang，et al(School of Public Administration，Hohai University，Nanjing 211100，China)

Abstract: In the process of the ecological civilization construction, the hierarchical administrative responsibility system, which is typical of river chief system, has become the most important way, and has been implemented in other fields of natural resources, showing a characteristic of “simplified governance”. From the perspective of natural resources property rights, this paper compares the implementation of river chief system and the forest chief system, and then suggests that because of the difference in the property rights structure, different natural resources tend to differ in the governance mechanism. Therefore, the simplified governance can lead to the phenomenon of “empty system”. On this basis, this paper proposes the implementation of a multiple governance mechanism of combined state, market, and community.

ConsciousGovernance:theBehavioralMotivationanditsRoleofSocialCo-GovernanceofPublicCrisis/JIANG Peng(School of Government, Nanjing University, Nanjing 210023，China)

Abstract: Modernization has made human society at risk. China, which is in the period of social transformation, is faced with an endless number of public crisis risks. In the governance of public crisis, the significance of co-governance at the grassroots level has become increasingly prominent. In the public crisis event of the outbreak of Covid-19 epidemic, the multiple governance subjects in City N constituted a governance community under the influence of the emotional field, and the social co-governance at the grassroots level achieved remarkable effects. This paper introduces the dimension of emotion field into public crisis governance and constructs the theoretical framework of “conscious governance”. The government and society can create a broader emotional field, build a pluralist social governance community, carry out more extensive, more scientific and more efficient “conscious governance”, promote the social governance based on collaboration, participation, common interests and common prosperity, and finally achieve a virtuous cycle of good governance.

InternalLogicandExternalPositioningof“DoubleEvaluation”inLandandSpacePlanning/WU Yuzhe, et al(School of Public Administration, Zhejiang University, Hangzhou 310058, China)

Abstract: The “double evaluation” composed of resources and environment carrying capacity evaluation and land and space development suitability evaluation has been elevated to the strategic height of the basis for the preparation of land and space planning. Through combing the research progress of “double evaluation”, it is pointed out that there is still a lack of research on its internal logic and the corresponding external positioning of the two evaluations. Unclear result logic, scale logic and driving logic lead to the confusion of external positioning including role orientation, level matching and main structure, limiting the feasibility of applying the evaluation results to land and space planning. As a result, this paper re-clarifies the internal logic of “double evaluation” and then clarifies the corresponding external positioning with optimizing the evaluation path of “series progressive” to “series-parallel hybrid”, which provides ideas and references for improving the effective support capacity of “double evaluation” for land and space planning.

TheHeterogeneityofMonetaryPolicyonUrbanHousingPriceTransmissionandtheSpilloverEffectofHousingPrice/PAN Haiying, et al(School of Business, Hohai University, Nanjing 211100, China)

Abstract: This paper divides 70 large and medium-sized cities in China into 5 levels. Based on the data from January 2009 to June 2018 and bounded in December 2015，the GVAR model is used to study the impact of monetary policy adjustment on urban housing price，as well as the spillover effect of housing price and its direct effect on the housing price of various cities affected by monetary policy in two periods. The results show that the housing price of cities at all levels is positively responding to the impact of money supply，while the effect of interest rate impact is changed from negative to positive by the “destocking” policy. Compared to the time before the implementation of “destocking” policy，the response of urban housing price to changes in money supply and interest rate is stronger and the rate of convergence is faster. Changes in monetary policy have a heterogeneous impact on housing prices in different cities. The higher the urban development level，the higher the response to the impact of monetary policy. Moreover，the “destocking” policy makes the response of house prices in the new first and second-tier cities to the changes of monetary policy larger than that in the first-tier cities. The spillover effect of housing price among cities at all levels is conspicuous. Generally speaking，the higher the development level，the greater the spillover effect of housing price，and the spillover effect also aggravates the divergence of housing price between cities.

Keywords: monetary policy； “destocking”； urban housing price； spillover effect； GVAR model

CanTransportationInfrastructureConstructionAlleviateUrbanPoverty?/LI Dongkun，et al(School of Public Affairs and Law, Southwest Jiaotong University, Chengdu 611756, China)

Abstract: Poverty eradication is a common goal of human society and a worldwide problem. At present, China has entered the decisive stage of poverty alleviation and the key period of urban-rural linkage poverty alleviation, so it is of great academic value and practical significance to study urban poverty reduction. Taking 8 provinces and regions in the west of China as research samples, this paper makes a systematic analysis of the urban poverty reduction effect of transportation infrastructure and its transmission mechanism. It is found that the improvement of road and railway mileage and its density in western ethnic areas will significantly reduce the absolute poverty and relative poverty of towns. Compared with railway traffic, the urban poverty reduction effect brought by road traffic infrastructure construction is more significant, and compared with transportation mileage, the poverty reduction effect of transportation density improvement is more worthy of attention. Further mechanism analysis shows that at this stage, transportation infrastructure construction in the western minority areas mainly promotes urban poverty reduction through the mechanism of promoting population flow, and the promotion mechanism of commodity flow is likely to worsen the urban poverty in the areas. In order to give full play to the urban poverty reduction effect of transportation infrastructure construction, it is necessary to focus on promoting the internal and external connection and network construction of transportation infrastructure, give priority to the development of road transportation services closely related to the flow of urban poor people, continuously enhance market access, and improve the transportation accessibility of ordinary people.

U.S.-MexicoWaterDebt:NewDevelopmentofInternationalWaterRightsDisputes/WANG Zhijian, et al(Law School, Hohai University, Nanjing 211100, China)

Abstract: The U.S.-Mexico water debt is an international water rights dispute between the United States and Mexico over the development and utilization of the Rio Grande River since the 1990s. The climate of the Rio Grande River basin, the conception of water sovereignty and the institutional arrangements of both sides in solving the international river water resources determine the long-term and complexity of the U.S.-Mexico water debt issue. In the future, the two countries will not overthrow the original international treaties and will not conclude new agreements, but will still coordinate the water debt issue within the framework of the basic framework formed by the 1906 and 1944 water treaties. In addition, the farmers’ conflict at the U.S.-Mexico border, the newly-built boundary border wall, water delivery time, water ecological environment protection, and the border groundwater decrease caused by the AAC canal will all have significant impacts on the U.S.-Mexico water debt. The new development of international water rights of the two countries can provide certain lessons for China’s relevant water policies.
