Gu Zongpei The understanding of Beijing Cultural Spaces 49th ISOCARP Congress 2013 The understanding of Beijing Cultural Spaces Zongpei GU, China academy of urban planning and design, China “The enduring competitive advantages in a global economy lie increasingly in local things.”1 With the progress of globalization, urban culture becomes increasingly important. Beijing has a long history and rich cultural resources. But the space vectors of her cultural resources are being invaded in the process of urban growth. In the end of 2011, the municipal government decided to ―turn Beijing into a city of prestigious cultural center of national demonstration and promotion and international significance.‖ 2 Building such a ―Culture-enriched Beijing‖ pose an urgent quest to reexamine and analyze the current status of the city’s urban cultural space against the background of the new era. 1. Identification of Beijing’s Current Urban Cultural Space “A nation’s cultural renaissance starts with a summary of its legacy.”3 Beijing’s long history and rich cultural resources laid a solid foundation for her cultural construction. An empirical study of the current status of her urban cultural space is the basis and prerequisite for further analysis. This article will discuss the current status of Beijing’s urban cultural space from her historical cultural space and contemporary-modern urban cultural space in a time sequence. 1.1 Historical Cultural Space Before the establishment of People’s Republic of China, Beijing’s historical cultural resources can be divided into ancient time (before the opium war in 1840) and modern time(1980 – 1949). 1.1.1 Ancient Time Beijing’s history as a city can be traced back to more than 3,000 years ago. -

Analysis and Evaluation of the Beijing Metro Project Financing Reforms
Advances in Social Science, Education and Humanities Research, volume 291 International Conference on Management, Economics, Education, Arts and Humanities (MEEAH 2018) Analysis and Evaluation of the Beijing Metro Project Financing Reforms Haibin Zhao1,a, Bingjie Ren2,b, Ting Wang3,c 1Ministry of Transport Research Institute, Chaoyang, Beijing, China,100029; 2Beijing Urban Construction Design & Development Group Co., Limited, Xicheng, Beijing, China,100037; 3School of Civil Engineering, Beijing Jiaotong University, Haidian, Beijing, China, 100044. [email protected], [email protected], [email protected] Keywords: metro; financing; marketisation; reform Abstract. The construction and operation of a metro system are costly, and the sustainable development of a metro system is difficult using government funding alone, particularly for developing countries. The main source for metro system financing in China is, currently, government budget and bank debt. Many cities have begun to seek new ways to attract funds from finance markets, which is increasing the need for the evaluation of metro financing. This study uses Beijing as a case study that utilises various financing modes with impressive results. As participants of the financing reform, the authors collected all the relative government documents and interviewed stakeholders to accomplish this work. This article reviews the development of financing modes for the Beijing Metro system during the last four decades and analyses the role of the government in the reformed financing system within the Chinese social political environment. The study addresses the advantages and challenges of the reforms in this context. To further analyses the technical processes of typical financing modes, the public-private partnership mode of Line 4, the BT mode of Olympic Branch Line, the insurance claim mode of Line 10 and the failure of the market oriented financing for Capital Airport Line are analysed and evaluated in detail. -

Past and Future: the Development of Animation Education in China
Vol. 8(2), pp. 13-17, February, 2016 DOI: 10.5897/IJPC2015.0357 Article Number: A45C2FE57451 International Journal of Psychology and ISSN 2141-2499 Copyright © 2016 Counselling Author(s) retain the copyright of this article http://www.academicjournals.org/IJPC Full Length Research Paper Past and Future: The Development of Animation Education in China Henry Ma The Hong Kong Polytechnic University, Hong Kong. Received 13 August, 2015; Accepted 9 October, 2015 The rapid development of cultural and creative industries in China induces a growth in the development of intellectual property. Some of the original equipment manufacturers (OEMs) are gradually transforming themselves into original design manufacturers (ODMs) and original brand manufacturers (OBMs). The animation industry also benefits from the Government’s policy support and starts to develop and produce original titles animation. The change of production direction creates a great demand for creative workers, and naturally, the educational institutes become the obvious source for this creative talent. In 2014, the Ministry of Education of the People’s Republic of China released a new General Higher Education Undergraduate Major Study Catalogue. This new catalogue put animation under the Theatre, Film and Television category. The changes made by all those institutions that do not focus on film and television study stop offering animation program as a major study. As animation industry is considered as a major developing area in China, a cut back of animation education programs will certainly affect the number of graduates in the coming years. By studying substantial literature on animation education development in China and interviewing a total of 48 teachers and students from 10 animation programs in Beijing, this paper traced the historical development of animation education in China, commented on the recent issues identified in the animation education and further argued about the changes that will actually benefit the future growth of animation education in China.
