I would find out soon enough the "special circumstances of China." First, I had to get ready to go to China. Ultimately, the context of the phrase would enlighten me. During the academic year 1985-1986 I taught at Shanxi Teacher's University which is located in Linfen, Shanxi Province, People's Republic of China. Like the Chinese, I would soon learn the virtues of quietness and patience. I would listen and look and remember. Perhaps most important of all, I would make friends whom I shall never forget.

Evaluation of Sustainable Development of Resources-Based Cities in Shanxi Province Based on Unascertained Measure
sustainability Article Evaluation of Sustainable Development of Resources-Based Cities in Shanxi Province Based on Unascertained Measure Yong-Zhi Chang and Suo-Cheng Dong * Institute of Geographic Sciences and Natural Resources Research, the Chinese Academy of Sciences, Beijing 100101, China; [email protected] * Correspondence: [email protected]; Tel.: +86-10-64889430; Fax: +86-10-6485-4230 Academic Editor: Marc A. Rosen Received: 31 March 2016; Accepted: 16 June 2016; Published: 22 June 2016 Abstract: An index system is established for evaluating the level of sustainable development of resources-based cities, and each index is calculated based on the unascertained measure model for 11 resources-based cities in Shanxi Province in 2013 from three aspects; namely, economic, social, and resources and environment. The result shows that Taiyuan City enjoys a high level of sustainable development and integrated development of economy, society, and resources and environment. Shuozhou, Changzhi, and Jincheng have basically realized sustainable development. However, Yangquan, Linfen, Lvliang, Datong, Jinzhong, Xinzhou and Yuncheng have a low level of sustainable development and urgently require a transition. Finally, for different cities, we propose different countermeasures to improve the level of sustainable development. Keywords: resources-based cities; sustainable development; unascertained measure; transition 1. Introduction In 1987, the World Commission on Environment and Development (WCED) proposed the concept of “sustainable development”. In 1996, the first official reference to “sustainable cities” was raised at the Second United Nations Human Settlements Conference, namely, as being comprised of economic growth, social equity, higher quality of life and better coordination between urban areas and the natural environment [1]. -

Copyright restrictions may apply. doi: 10.1086/692660 Intensified Foraging and the Roots of Farming in China SHENGQIAN CHEN, School of History, Renmin University of China, Beijing, China PEI-LIN YU, Department of Anthropology, Boise State University, Boise, ID 83725, USA. Email: [email protected] In an accompanying paper ( Journal of Anthropological Research 73(2):149–80, 2017), the au- thors assess current archaeological and paleobiological evidence for the early Neolithic of China. Emerging trends in archaeological data indicate that early agriculture developed variably: hunt- ing remained important on the Loess Plateau, and aquatic-based foraging and protodomes- tication augmented cereal agriculture in South China. In North China and the Yangtze Basin, semisedentism and seasonal foraging persisted alongside early Neolithic culture traits such as or- ganized villages, large storage structures, ceramic vessels, and polished stone tool assemblages. In this paper, we seek to explain incipient agriculture as a predictable, system-level cultural response of prehistoric foragers through an evolutionary assessment of archaeological evidence for the pre- ceding Paleolithic to Neolithic transition (PNT). We synthesize a broad range of diagnostic ar- tifacts, settlement, site structure, and biological remains to develop a working hypothesis that agriculture was differentially developed or adopted according to “initial conditions” of habitat, resource structure, and cultural organization. -

I is a repor on existing conditions in Shansi Provinceo On arch 14 1 flew from Peiping to Taiyuan, capital of Shansi, wilh a close friend of mine who is one of he younger members of ne UoS. consulate in Peiping. Eactly one week later, on arch 21, we returned o Peiping. The week which we apen in Shansi was a sy one, and I believe we obtained an sccurate picture @f many of the unusual aspects of Governor Yen Hsi-shan's regime. Before going we had inteviesd a number of People in Peiping who are familiar wih Shansi, and consequently we had some idea of significant things to watch for. The firs few days were spent interviewing op officials in the provincial government. We had long interviews with Governor Yen Hsi-shan;Kuo Tsung-fen, Yen's Chief Of Saf; Liang a-chih, Provincial Commissioner; Po Y-hsiang, chief o the Land Breau; Wang Ch'ien, head of he Economic Control Breau; P'eng Shih-hng, Director of he Northwest Industrial Company, and others.
