    Testimony before the U.S.-China Economic and Security Review Commission Hearing on What Keeps Xi Up at Night: Beijing’s Internal and External Challenges February 7, 2019 Greg Levesque Managing Director, Pointe Bello Beijing Crafting a 21st Century Industrial Policy The Peoples Republic of China (PRC) is implementing an ambitious strategy to rapidly enhance its innovation capabilities to close the scientific and technological innovation gap with more advanced economies such as the United States. A number of internal and external factors are motivating this effort, but at a macro-level, PRC leaders assess that the world has entered a fast-moving technological revolution characterized by “informatization and intelligentization” [智能化·] with implications for global economic and military affairs. Simultaneously, and arguably coincidentally, the 2008 Financial Crisis created further strategic opportunities1 for China to expand its influence amid anticipated shifts in the global balance of power. The convergence of this “technological moment” and “strategic moment” are resulting in rapid changes to PRC industrial, innovation, and military modernization policies and capture the underpinnings of Chinese competitive strategy. General Secretary Xi outlined this perspective in a 2013 speech to the Politburo, stating: “At present, from a global perspective, science and technology are increasingly becoming the main force driving economic and social development, and innovation is the general trend…Since the outbreak of the international financial crisis, major countries in the world have made great efforts to formulate new science and technology development strategies to seize the commanding heights of science and technology and industry. This trend deserves our high attention.”2 PRC industrial policy emphasizing development of “core technologies” [核心技术]3 appear strongly influenced by internal assessments of the 2008 Financial Crisis, leading to shifts in policy across economic, diplomatic, and military domains.

  • A Preliminary Analysis of Chinese-Foreign Higher Education Partnerships in Guangdong, China∗
    US-China Education Review B, March 2019, Vol. 9, No. 3, 79-89 doi: 10.17265/2161-6248/2019.03.001 D D AV I D PUBLISHING Stay Local, Go Global: A Preliminary Analysis of Chinese-Foreign Higher Education Partnerships in Guangdong, China∗ Wong Wei Chin, Yuan Wan, Wang Xun United International College (UIC), Zhuhai, China Yan Siqi London School of Economics and Political Science (LSE), London, England As China moves toward a market system after the “reforms and opening-up” policy since the late 1970s, internationalization is receiving widespread attention at many academic institutions in mainland China. Today, there are 70 Sino-Foreign joint institutions (namely, “Chinese-Foreign Higher Education Partnership”) presently operating within the Chinese nation. Despite the fact that the majority of these joint institutions have been developed since the 1990s, surprisingly little work has been published that addresses its physical distribution in China, and the prospects and challenges faced by the faculty and institutions on an operational level. What are the incentives of adopting both Western and Chinese elements in higher education? How do we ensure the higher education models developed in the West can also work well in mainland China? In order to answer the aforementioned questions, the purpose of this paper is therefore threefold: (a) to navigate the current development of internationalization in China; (b) to compare conventional Chinese curriculum with the “hybrid” Chinese-Foreign education model in present Guangdong province, China; and

  • The Mean and Noise of Fpt Modulated by Promoter Architecture in Gene Networks

Increasing experimental evidences suggest that cell phenotypic variation often depends on the accumulation of some special proteins. Recently, a lot of studies have shown that the complexity of promoter architecture plays a major role in regulating transcription and controlling expression dynamics and further phenotype. One unanswered question is why the organism chooses such a complex promoter architecture and how the promoter architecture affects the timing of proteins amount up to a given threshold. To address this issue, we study the effect of promoter architecture on the first-passage time (FPT) by formulating a multi-state gene model, that may reflect the complexity of pro- moter architecture. We derive analytical formulae for FPT moments in each case of irreversible promoter and reversible promoter regulation, which is the first time to give these analytical results in the existing literature. We show that the mean and noise of FPT increase with the state number of promoter architecture if the mean residence time at off states is not fixed. Inversely, if the mean residence time at off states is fixed, then complex promoter architec- ture will not vary the mean of FPT but will tend to decrease the noise of FPT.

The International Centre for the Study of East Asian Development, Kitakyushu Distribution Dynamics and Convergence among 75 Cities and Counties in Yangtze River Delta in China: 1990-2005 Hiroshi Sakamoto♦ Jin Fan∗ Abstract This paper applies the distribution dynamics method to study the per capita income disparity from 1990 to 2005 among the 75 cities and counties in the Yangtze River Delta (YRD). The main conclusions are as follows: First, the distribution of per capita income across YRD has changed from bi-modal to being positively skewed over the period 1990–2005; the income disparity has been reduced in the 8th Five-Year Plan, enlarged in the 9th Five-Year Plan and then reduced again somewhat in the 10th Five-Year Plan. Second, the main contribution to disparity comes from the intra disparity of the Jiangsu region; especially, the distribution density of Jiangsu is bi-modal over the period. Third, the rich cities and the poor cities developed independently and steadily at different speeds.
