The book provides a cross-disciplinary and multi-scale assessment of a world top river, the Changjiang (Yangtze River) and its adjacent marginal environment, the East China Sea. The studies in this volume bridges the watersheds of the river and the marginal sea through a combined approach of hydro-dynamics, geochemistry, sedimentary processes, ecology and fishery. The response of ecosystem to the external driving forces is examined via process-oriented observations, mesocosm experiments and numerical simulations in combination. The lessons learnt from the case studies of Changjiang and East C

This book explores the modelling techniques key to Comprehensive capital analysis and review (CCAR) and the business implications of the programme. Contributions from those directly involved in the implementation and regulation of these assessments provide a unique source of information and insight into the assessment practices.

This book links the environment and corruption with China's large inflows of foreign direct investment (FDI). It investigates the effects of economic development and foreign investment on pollution in China; the effects of corruption and governance quality on FDI location choice in China

This book provides a critical and timely insight into the relationship between foreign direct investment (FDI) and environmental outcomes in China. The book links the environment and corruption with China's large inflows of FDI. It investigates the effects of economic development and foreign investment on pollution in China; the effects of corruption and governance quality on FDI location choice in China; and the relationship between environmental regulation stringency and FDI, as well as the role of corruption played in this relationship.

Since the 1990s, Russian philosophers, logicians, linguists, and cultural scientists have been introducing the term "concept" in an attempt to analyze its relevance and function in cognitive, linguistic, and cultural studies. Therefore, conceptual research has become a hot topic, and an independent discipline-language perception-has been formed in linguistic science. At the beginning of the 21st century, the theory of language perception was introduced to China and entered the research horizons of language culture, cognitive linguistics, and psycholinguistics. This article briefly examines and summarizes the history of the dissemination and development of Russian language observation in China, and predicts its development prospects in China in order to make a small contribution to the humanitarian and academic exchanges between Russia and China, as well as intercultural exchanges.

This literature review presents seven major works on Durkheim written by leading Chinese researchers and published during the last 10 years. Some of them try to analyse Durkheim's views in order to understand contemporary Chinese society, by questioning what Durkheim teaches us about moral education, or by examining his conception of the nation. Others are more in the nature of scholarly commentary on his theory, whether by examining notions of anomie, the division of labour, suicide or a moral science.French abstract:
Cette revue de littérature présente sept principales publications (écrites par des chercheurs parmi les plus reconnus) consacrées à l'oeuvre de Durkheim en Chine et parues durant les dix dernières années. Certaines d'entre elles s'essayent à analyser l'actualité de Durkheim pour comprendre la société chinoise contemporaine, en interrogeant ce que Durkheim nous apprend à propos de l'éducation morale, ou encore en examinant sa conception de la nation. D'autres relèvent plus du commentaire érudit de sa théorie, que ce soit en se penchant sur la notion d'anomie, de division du travail, sur le suicide ou encore la science morale.

This study describes the results of interventions with the Konstanz Method of Dilemma Discussion (KMDD) by Georg Lind, with 89 economics undergraduate participants sampled from Guangdong province. The participants' mean C-score in the Moral Judgment Test increased only a little because of the teacher's little experience in using KMDD, but otherwise the intervention produced good results: the participants showed great interest in KMDD although this teaching method is very different from the typical Chinese teaching, and they enjoyed the KMDD-sessions and the classroom atmosphere created through it. Students' feedback will be useful for future application and research on KMDD in China.
