This dynamic community of scientists, engineers and designers seek to bridge science and innovation. Their novel ideas bring solutions to some of the most challenging problems of the 21st century. Established in 1985 CIM was formed in 1985 as the McGill Research Centre for Intelligent Machines (McRCIM). At that time, it reported to the Dean of the Faculty of Engineering and the Vice-Principal Graduate Studies and Research. Members from the Department of Electrical Engineering, the Department of Mechanical Engineering, the Department of Biomedical Engineering, the Department of Mining and Materials Engineering and the School of Computer Science contributed to the Centre’s early formation. As of 2009-2010 Today, the Centre is comprised of 29 faculty members and associate members, about 150 graduate and honors-undergraduate students, post-doctoral fellows and visitors and 13 topical laboratories. The Centre for Intelligent Machines (CIM) currently spans 2 faculties with members from the Departments of Electrical and Computer Engineering, Mechanical Engineering and the School of Computer Science.

  • Work Units, Marital Regulation, and Rising Divorce Rates in China ∗
    When the State Retreats: Work Units, Marital Regulation, and Rising Divorce Rates in China ∗ Yifeng Wan † Johns Hopkins University April 18, 2019 Abstract The high and rising divorce rate in China is not easily reconciled with tradi- tional theories that emphasize the role of modernization in changing family life. By reformulating the state social engineering theory, this paper argues that the retreat of the state from private life has contributed to China’s ris- ing divorce rates in the past four decades. A divorce reform that simplified divorce procedures and the declining significance of the work unit are two mechanisms through which the retreating state may influence divorce rates. Results from province-level panel data set suggest that smaller share of em- ployment in state and collective work units is associated with higher divorce rates. The diminishing function of institutional control accounts for the effect of the work unit on rising divorce rates. Key words: Divorce; work units; state regulation; divorce law; Chinese families ∗I am grateful to Andy Cherlin for his support and guidance throughout the entirety of this project.

  • HAVE YOU EATEN? HAVE YOU DIVORCED? DEBATING the MEANING of FREEDOM in MARRIAGE in CHINA by WILLIAM P. ALFORD & SHEN YUANYUAN
    HAVE YOU EATEN? HAVE YOU DIVORCED? DEBATING THE MEANING OF FREEDOM IN MARRIAGE IN CHINA by WILLIAM P. ALFORD & SHEN YUANYUAN “Have You Eaten? Have You Divorced? Marriage, Divorce and the Assessment of Freedom in China,” in Ideas of Freedom in the Chinese World, ed. W. Kirby (Stanford University Press, 2003).* A great deal of discussion about freedom in the People’s Republic of China has proceeded on certain assumptions about the role of the state and about law’s place in helping define it. At the heart of these assumptions is the idea that the cause of freedom in China will best be advanced through the state’s retrenchment and a concomitant ceding of power to non-state actors, particularly with respect to economic and social matters. This notion is perhaps most obvious in calls for the promotion of greater economic freedom via both the “privatization” of state owned enterprise and an increasing reliance on market forces, but it also informs the view that such measures are or soon will be leading to a marked growth in political freedom. And it undergirds the conviction of most observers that what is termed the rise of civil society will perforce enhance personal freedom in China. As the noted Chinese scholar Liu Junning observed in a recent essay extolling Hayek, “almost all of those who shape public opinion in China are liberals [as] classical liberalism now dominates China’s intellectual landscape.”1 Law occupies a prominent position in this vision, being increasingly seen in both academic and policy circles as critical to the attainment for Chinese of fuller economic, political, and social freedoms.

  • Gendered Patterns and Solidarity of the Unions: Differentiations Between International Marriages and Domestic Marriages in China
    Gendered Patterns and Solidarity of the Unions: Differentiations between International Marriages and Domestic Marriages in China Shenghan Cai1 Fei Guo2 and Shuang Liu3 Abstract With implementation of the economic reform, opening-up, and family planning policy, China has experienced profound socioeconomic and cultural changes since the late 1970s. Following the relax of migration control, the country’s youthful structure of population and adequate labour force contributes to its geospatial imbalanced socioeconomic prosperity and large scale of emigration. Recently, with China’s economic success, the internal and international migration has increased while international marriages experienced dramatic increase and decrease, which requires sufficient study. Using a unique dataset of international and domestic marriage registration from the provincial Bureau of Civil Affairs, this paper aims to examine the differentiation between international marriages and domestic marriages from 2010 to 2014, the effects of educational attainment, occupation and marital status on the choice of transnational relationships. Logistic and Cox regression models are used to analyse the probability of choosing international marriages and the solidarity of both international and domestic marriages. The results suggest that international married couples show a higher probability of larger age gap, remarriage, and divorce, yet the age-gap and proportion of remarriage are decreasing in recent years. Younger birth cohorts might have shorter solidarities for both types of marriage. Different from conventional understanding, this study suggests that individual with primary or college educational attainment are more likely to marry internationally while occupation in commerce and service industry might increase the possibility of choosing international marriage. The result also suggests that Mainland Chinese and residents from SARs couples experienced the lowest hazard of divorce than Mainland Chinese and Overseas sojourn Chinese couples who share more cultural and social similarities.

    Epilogue Ever since the term “Chinese people’s Inner Experience” was proposed in 2009, I have wanted to write a book with that title to call people’s attention to the changes in Chinese values and social mentality since the adoption of reform and opening up in 1978. My motive was simple: it had been thirty years since the introduction of reform and opening up in 1978 and China had experienced earth-shattering changes during this period; our GDP had risen from 265 billion USD to 5 trillion USD to become the world’s second largest behind the United States, and we had been marching toward a truly modern society through the implementation of relevant systems, the rule of law, and the market economy. Furthermore, concurrent with the changes in social structure, what we call the ever-changing “socialmentality” exemplified by values, lifestyle, and social behavior has also undergone profound transformation. Like the changes in social structure, those in social mentality are also far-reaching and profound; not only have they left their imprint on the five thousand years of China’s cultural history, they can also serve as a psychological playbook for all the developing countries undergoing transformation toward modernity. Viewed from this angle, these massive changes in social mentality experienced by the Chinese people in the past thirty years can be totalized as the Chinese Experience, or more appropriately, the Chinese people’s Inner Experience, which comprises the changes in values and social mentality at its core but also subjective emotions and psychological condensates; the Chinese people’s Inner Experience rounds out the Chinese Experience by imbuing it with value and meaning.
