View south-southeast across Lhasa He (Lhasa River) flood plain from roof of Potala Pal ace, Lhasa, Xizang Autonomous Region, China. The Potala (see frontispiece), characteristic sym bol of Tibet, nses 308 m above the valley floor on a bedrock hill and provides an excellent view of Mt. Guokalariju, 5,603 m elevation, and adjacent mountains 15 km to the southeast These mountains of flysch-like Triassic clastic and volcanic rocks and some Mesozoic granite character ize the southernmost part of Northern Xizang Structural Region (Gangdese-Nyainqentanglha Tec tonic Zone), which lies just north of the Yarlung Zangbo east-west tectonic suture 50 km to the south (see figs. 2, 3). Mountains are part of the Gangdese Island Arc at south margin of Lhasa continental block. Light-tan areas on flanks of mountains adjacent to almost vegetation-free flood plain are modern and ancient climbing sand dunes that exhibit evidence of strong winds. From flood plain of Lhasa He, and from flood plain of much larger Yarlung Zangbo to the south (see figs. 2, 3, 13), large dust storms and sand storms originate today and are common in capitol city of Lhasa. Blowing silt from larger braided flood plains in Pleistocene time was source of much loesslike silt described in this report. Photograph PK 23,763 by Troy L. P6w6, June 4, 1980.

Keeping Friends Close, and Their Oil Closer: Rethinking the Role of The
Keeping Friends Close, and Their Oil Closer: Rethinking the Role of the Shanghai Cooperation Organization in China’s Strive for Energy Security in Kazakhstan By Milos Popovic Submitted to Central European University Department of International Relations and European Studies In partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts in International Relations and European Studies Supervisor: Professor Matteo Fumagalli Word Count: 17, 201 CEU eTD Collection Budapest, Hungary June, 2010 ABSTRACT It is generally acknowledged that Beijing’s bilateral oil dealings pertaining to the construction of the Atyrau-Alashankou pipeline comprise the backbone of China’s strive for energy security in Kazakhstan. Against the backdrop of a widespread scholarly claim that the Shanghai Cooperation Organization (SCO) plays no role in this endeavor, this thesis argues that Beijing acts as a security-seeker to bind both Kazakhstan and Russia into energy cooperation within the organization. Acting as a regional forum through which China channels and reinforces its oil dealings, I argue that the SCO corrects the pitfalls of a bilateral approach which elicits the counter-balancing of Chinese activities by Astana and Moscow who are concerned with the distribution of gains. Putting to a test differing hypothesis by rationalist IR theories, I find that the SCO approach enables China to assure both actors about its benign intentions and maximize gains on a bilateral level as expected by defensive neorealism. CEU eTD Collection i ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS My immense love and gratitude belongs to my parents and brother who wholeheartedly supported me during the course of the whole academic year giving me the strength to endure amid hard times. -

Advances in Social Science, Education and Humanities Research, volume 468 Proceedings of 5th International Conference on Contemporary Education, Social Sciences and Humanities - Philosophy of Being Human as the Core of Interdisciplinary Research (ICCESSH 2020) The Impact of Resilience on the Psychological Health of Disadvantaged Children: The Mediating Role of Coping Styles and Core Self-Evaluation Chenxi Li1,* Chao Ma1,2 Haidong Zhu1 Chao Song3 Zhijiang Liang1 Jinli Wei4 1Normal College, Shihezi University, Shihezi, Xinjiang 832003, China 2Centre for Applied Psychological Research, Shihezi University, Shihezi, Xinjiang, China 3Ghent University, Ghent, Belgium 4Third Division 44 Regiment Middle School, Tumxuk, Xinjiang, China *Corresponding author. Email: [email protected] ABSTRACT Objective: Based on the environment-individual interaction model and the "evaluation-coping" theory, the relationship between Resilience, Coping Styles, Core Self-evaluation and psychological health of disadvantaged children was explored to provide some theoretical support for psychological health intervention research. Methods: Resilience Scale for Chinese Adolescent (RSCA), core self-evaluation Scale (CSES), Simplified Coping Style Questionnaire (SCSQ), General Health Questionnaire (GHQ-12) were used to conduct a questionnaire survey among 618 middle school students in South Xinjiang. Results: First, GHQ-12 scores were negatively correlated with RSCA, CSES, and SCSQ scores (r=- 0.57/r=-0.56/r=-0.49, P <0.001), and positively correlated with the level of psychological health; second, coping styles is a mediator between resilience and psychological health (mediator effect value is -0.04); third, core self-evaluation is a mediator between coping styles and psychological health, there is "resilience — coping styles — core self-evaluation — psychological health" path. Conclusion: Resilience can directly predict the psychological health of disadvantaged children, and indirectly predict psychological health level through chain mediation of coping styles — core self-evaluation. -

Middlemen and Marcher States in Central Asia and East/West Empire Synchrony Christopher Chase-Dunn, Thomas D
Middlemen and marcher states in Central Asia and East/West Empire Synchrony Christopher Chase-Dunn, Thomas D. Hall, Richard Niemeyer, Alexis Alvarez, Hiroko Inoue, Kirk Lawrence, Anders Carlson, Benjamin Fierro, Matthew Kanashiro, Hala Sheikh-Mohamed and Laura Young Institute for Research on World-Systems University of California-Riverside Draft v.11 -1-06, 8365 words Abstract: East, West, Central and South Asia originally formed somewhat separate cultural zones and networks of interaction among settlements and polities, but during the late Bronze and early Iron Ages these largely separate regional systems came into increasing interaction with one another. Central Asian nomadic steppe pastoralist polities and agricultural oasis settlements mediated the East/West and North/South interactions. Earlier research has discovered that the growth/decline phases of empires in East and West Asia became synchronous around 140 BCE and that this synchrony lasted until about 1800 CE. This paper develops the comparative world-systems perspective on Central Asia and examines the growth and decline of settlements, empires and steppe confederations in Central Asia to test the hypothesis that the East/West empire synchrony may have been caused by linkages that occurred with and across Central Asia. To be presented at the Research Conference on Middlemen Co-sponsored by the All-UC Economic History and All-UC World History Groups, November 3-5, 2006, UCSD IROWS Working Paper #30. http://irows.ucr.edu/papers/irows30/irows30.htm This paper is part of a larger research project on “Measuring and modeling cycles of state formation, decline and upward sweeps since the Bronze Age” NSF-SES 057720 http://irows.ucr.edu/research/citemp/citemp.html Earlier research has demonstrated a curious East/West synchrony from 140 BCE to 1800 CE. -
