Travaillant d’arrache-pied depuis 2013 à se débarrasser L principalement des alliés de Jiang Zemin, l’alliance Xi-Wang a enfin réussi à purger le Parti-État afin de positionner ses alliés. Ce faisant, la transition qui aura vraiment lieu cet automne n’est pas la transition Hu Jintao- Xi Jinping, celle-ci date déjà de 2012. La transition de 2017 est celle de la Chine des années 1990 à la Chine des années 2010, soitde la Chine de Jiang Zemin à celle de Xi Jinping. Ce sera également le début de l’ère des enfants de la révolution culturelle, des « zhiqing » [知青] (jeunesses envoyées en campagne), qui formeront une majorité au sein du Politburo et qui remanieront la Chine à leur manière. Avec les départs annoncés, Xi pourra enfin former son « bandi » [班底] – garde rapprochée – au sein du Politburo et effectivement mettre en place un agenda de politiques et non pas simplement des mesures visant à faire le ménage au cœur du Parti-État. Des 24 individus restants, entre 12 et 16 devront partir; 121 sièges (si l’on compte le siège rendu vacant de Sun Zhengcai) et 16 si Xi Jinping décide d’appliquer plus « sévèrement » la limite d’âge maintenant à 68 ans.

  • Consulat General De France a Wuhan Deleguee Du Service Economique Regional En Chine
    CONSULAT GENERAL DE FRANCE A WUHAN DELEGUEE DU SERVICE ECONOMIQUE REGIONAL EN CHINE Qin Huang Wuhan, le 14 mai 2013 NOTE Objet : Présentation générale sur la ville de Wuhan Située au cœur de la Chine, Wuhan, capitale de la province du Hubei, est généralement assez méconnue en dépit de ses 10 millions d’habitants (30 millions avec 8 villes satellites). Et pourtant, cette métropole, surnommée « la ville du Fleuve Bleu », a toujours occupée une place stratégique dans l’histoire chinoise traditionnelle et moderne. Aujourd’hui, Wuhan constitue un pôle majeur et incontournable en Chine dans les domaines de l’industrie (productions d’acier et d’automobiles dans les premières du pays), des hautes technologies (plusieurs de ses parcs industriels sont réputés internationalement), de l’éducation et de la recherche scientifique (3ème centre universitaire de Chine, son nombre d’étudiants atteignant 1,2 millions). Véritable hub des transports à moins de 1000 km de Pékin, Shanghai, Canton, Chongqing et Hong Kong, principales villes d’importance, cette position centrale lui offre un avantage indéniable dans le développement du territoire intérieur chinois. Ainsi, Wuhan connaît, particulièrement depuis 2004, une croissance économique sans précédent, affichant un taux maximal de 15,6% en 2007, dépassant chaque année de plusieurs points la croissance moyenne nationale. Quand cette dernière est de 7,8% en 2012, Wuhan enregistre quant à elle un taux de croissance de 11,4%. Selon ses dirigeants locaux, la ville serait désormais dans une période qualifiée d’ « âge d’or » et ce pour encore 10 ans. A cette nouvelle et très forte dynamique économique est associée une modernisation fulgurante dans tous les domaines couplée à des visions de grandeur, d’énergie créative et de projets les plus innovants.

    Business Cycles, Climate Anomalies, and Regional Height Cycles in Japan, 1892-1937 Jean-Pascal Bassino a and Ulrich Woitek b This version: April 2012 Please do not circulate a IAO, Ecole Normale Supérieure de Lyon, 15 Parvis René Descartes, BP 7000, 69342 Lyon Cedex, France (corresponding author). b Department of Economics, University of Zurich, Zürichbergstrasse 14 8032 Zurich, Switzerland. Business Cycles, Climate Anomalies, and Regional Height Cycles in Japan, 1892-1937 Abstract Recent research has shown that there is a significant inter-relation between business cycles and height cycles. We analyze patterns in average stature of Japanese conscripts for the period 1892-1937 using regional level annual time series (47 prefectures). Cycles in the 3-5 years range dominate; this is similar to findings for the US and Europe. Human stature in prefectures characterized by product specialization seems to be more sensitive to the dominant business cycle in the 7-10 years range than in others. We find that also that regional summer temperature contributes significantly to the explanation of the height cycle. Keywords: Business cycles, human stature, height cycles, climate, Japan, spectral analysis 1. Introduction Most studies analyzing the relation between economic and anthropometric variables point toward a significant and positive relationship between income and stature. It has been well established that long-term trends in average stature in a given population are influenced by changes in economic conditions measured by income; the major explanation is the link between income and nutritional status. Quantitative analyses using international or inter- regional cross-section data highlight the role of other explanatory variables such as availability of health services, urbanisation, and workload of children and pregnant women (Steckel 1995, 2009).

EUROPEAN POLICY BRIEF COMPETING REGIONAL INTEGRATIONS IN SOUTHEAST ASIA – (P OLICY BRIEF N °1) Local Governments in China's Policy Towards ASEAN: Roles, Structures and Implications The role of China’s local governments in policy towards ASEAN has been perceived as an important part of the Belt and Road Initiative (BRI). In this context, the role of Yunnan province, selected by the central governments as the bridgehead, has been prominent in China's policy towards Myanmar. By building channels for cooperation and communication at the local level, the Chinese government hopes to exercise its public diplomacy and soft-power to limit the anti-Chinese sentiments and test the local ground for further extension of the patron-client relations at the state level. This policy brief attempts to elaborate the role of local governments in China’s policy towards ASEAN under the Belt and Road Initiative.
