  • 2020 International Religious Freedom Report
    CHINA (INCLUDES TIBET, XINJIANG, HONG KONG, AND MACAU) 2020 INTERNATIONAL RELIGIOUS FREEDOM REPORT Executive Summary Reports on Hong Kong, Macau, Tibet, and Xinjiang are appended at the end of this report. The constitution of the People’s Republic of China (PRC), which cites the leadership of the Chinese Communist Party (CCP), states that citizens “enjoy freedom of religious belief” but limits protections for religious practice to “normal religious activities” without defining “normal.” CCP members and members of the armed forces are required to be atheists and are forbidden from engaging in religious practices. National law prohibits organizations or individuals from interfering with the state educational system for minors younger than the age of 18, effectively barring them from participating in most religious activities or receiving religious education. Some provinces have additional laws on minors’ participation in religious activities. The government continued to assert control over religion and restrict the activities and personal freedom of religious adherents that it perceived as threatening state or CCP interests, according to religious groups, nongovernmental organizations (NGOs), and international media reports. The government recognizes five official religions: Buddhism, Taoism, Islam, Protestantism, and Catholicism. Only religious groups belonging to one of the five state-sanctioned “patriotic religious associations” representing these religions are permitted to register with the government and officially permitted to hold worship services. There continued to be reports of deaths in custody and that the government tortured, physically abused, arrested, detained, sentenced to prison, subjected to forced indoctrination in CCP ideology, or harassed adherents of both registered and unregistered religious groups for activities related to their religious beliefs and practices.

    ZHANGJIAJIE GLASS BRIDGE, CHINA Photo: © Zhangjiajie Grand Canyon Tourism Management Co., Ltd. Tourism © Zhangjiajie Grand Canyon Photo: English STRUCTURAL & SECURITY ZHANGJIAJIE, CHINA ZHANGJIAJIE GLASS BRIDGE, CHINA The glass bridge over the Grand Canyon of Zhangjiajie, China, shows sympathy for nature and incredible fortitude in the face of demanding winds, foot traffic and operating conditions. At 300 m (984 ft) above the canyon floor, the 385 m (1,263 ft) long and six meters (19.7 ft) wide bridge over the Grand Canyon of Zhangjiajie is the world's tallest and longest pedestrian glass bridge. The thin horizontal bridge, which incorporates a transparent glass floor and side suspension cables, has been designed to accommodate up to 800 visitors, so the glazing solution deployed by the architects and engineers had to be incredibly robust. For such a demanding application, there was only one real option – the use of laminated glass panels incorporating SentryGlas® ionoplast interlayers from Trosifol®. Offering outstanding immersion within the surrounding canyon and mountains − which were the inspiration for some of the breath-taking scenes in the movie Avatar − as well as an unparalleled view of the canyon floor for walk-on visitors, the bridge also features the world’s highest bungee jump and will serve as a stage for dances, fashion shows and cultural events. According to the architect, Professor Haim Dotan, founder of Haim Dotan Ltd. Architects and Urban Designers: “Out of respect for the beauty of nature, the bridge had to disappear… this was my challenge in the design process. We therefore put our heart, vision and love of nature into creating a bridge, which had the least impact on the surrounding natural beauty.” Photo: © Zhangjiajie Grand Canyon Tourism Management Co., Ltd.

  • Sustainability and Tourism: the Case of China
    Master’s Degree in Languages, Economics and Institutions of Asia and North Africa Final Thesis Sustainability and Tourism: the case of China Supervisor Ch. Prof. Daniele Brombal Graduand Paola Colombo Matricolation number 871781 Academic Year 2018 / 2019 2 引言 本文旨在讨论可持续发展观念对中国发展的意义及其在中国的实施情况。可持 续发展的概念最早出现于 30 多年前,但是它的具体涵义至今仍在讨论中。研究者从 不同的角度出发,对可持续发展的定义也就不同。一般来说,可持续发展的概念涉 及自然、社会、经济、科技等多个方面。 可持续发展倡导将自然资源公平和合理地运用在各种开发领域中,使社会、经 济、文化、科技都能取得平衡、健康的长期发展。它反对为追求发展而过度开发自 然资源、破坏生态多样化、污染环境等手段,要求保护和加强环境系统的生产和更 新能力,采取更清洁、高效的发展技术,既能增加当代人的福利,又不会减少后代 的福利。 根据世界旅游组织预测,到 2020 年中国将会成为世界上最大的旅游目的地国 家,接待游客超过 1 亿名。对于中国经济而言,旅游业占据的地位越来越重要。旅 游业不但产生了可观的经济效益,而且对环境的影响绝对不小。景点开发、基础设 施建设、旅游管理服务等方面仍会对自然环境产生一定的负面影响。根据中国的自 然环境综合情况、经济发展的需求来看,旅游业必须走可持续发展的道路。有效保 护自然资源与环境,是实现旅游业可持续发展的基础。不能只顾发展而忽略了对自 然环境的保护,要努力实现生态效益和经济效益的双赢。 旅游业和自然环境之间存在紧密的联系,因为旅游业的发展很大程度上依靠当 地自然环境的吸引力。即使一个地区拥有得天独厚的自然旅游资源,也仍然需要当 地政府部门用正确、环保的方式来开发和保护环境,才能达到吸引游客的目的。否 则,当游客看到原本优美的风景被污染破坏,会对该地区的旅游业十分失望,严重 影响了当地旅游业的发展前景与口碑。 3 一个地区的旅游业发展必需考虑两个重要的方面,即环境承载力与经济效益。 第一,环境的承载能力是有限度的,如果有关部门管理不善,旅游业会对生态环境 造成较严重的破坏。发展旅游业需要对外宣传,扩大知名度,必定会吸引来大量的 游客。一旦游客的数量超过该地区的承载能力,随之而来的破坏便不可避免。其中, 水资源、空气资源和土壤资源首当其冲。景区里的人群和商店会产生大量生活垃圾, 渗入到附近的水源与土壤中,造成难以清除的破坏。过多的旅游业车辆也会排出超 额的废气,污染空气。所以,环境的承载力必须成为旅游业发展的一个重要考虑因 素。 第二,要考虑旅游业为当地社会带来的经济效益。旅游业能推动落后地区的经 济发展,但同时也需要大量的投资。如果一个经济落后的地区拥有丰富的旅游资源, 而缺少足够的资金投入到旅游业中,那就很可能吸引外地资本加入,共同开发当地 旅游资源。因为开发旅游业会占用本地社会的资源,因此可持续发展的原则要求本 地社会也能收获公平的效益,而不能让绝大部分旅游业的收益都流入外地投资者的 口袋中。 总的来说,遵循可持续发展的原则对旅游业而言非常重要。不仅因为可持续发 展体现了人类对保护生态环境的责任感,还因为可持续发展与旅游产业的经济效益 紧密相关,它能实现真正长久的持续收益,一边发展经济,一边保护环境,形成健 康良好的循环。 论文一共分为三章。第一章主要介绍了可持续发展的概念,以及围绕它意义和
