    BUREAUCRACY AND LAW A STUDY OF CHINESE CRIMINAL COURTS AND SOCIAL MEDIA A dissertation presented by Yu Zhang to The School of Criminology and Criminal Justice In partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the field of Criminology and Criminal Justice Northeastern University Boston, Massachusetts August, 2014 1 BUREAUCRACY AND LAW A STUDY OF CHINESE CRIMINAL COURTS AND SOCIAL MEDIA by Yu Zhang ABSTRACT OF DISSERTATION Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Criminology and Justice Policy in the College of Social Sciences and Humanities of Northeastern University August, 2014 2 Abstract Born in a firmly-rooted bureaucratic society, Chinese judiciary has never gained the opportunity to build its own identity. Concurrently, Chinese people, immersed in a bureaucratic culture, always pin their dream of justice on a powerful bureaucracy rather on a weak judiciary. The current study discusses the thousands years of Chinese history and the significant impact of bureaucracy on Chinese society and courts, and then look into the potential change in a global era revolutionized with technology and internet. A story-telling mode is used to analyze eleven important criminal cases to disclose the operations of criminal courts in China. Large amount of social media data are presented to showcase the dynamic legal community and online activism. We do not know exactly the impact of government monitoring of the social media and it is an open question. Chinese online legal activism derives its methods and vitality from multiple and intersecting forces, including the particular internet transmitting formats, actual contemporary protest forms, incipient public space promotion.

  • Old Teachings, New Marketing Strategies, and Hollywood's Industry
    Master’s Degree in European, American and Postcolonial Language and Literature Final Thesis Old Teachings, New Marketing Strategies, and Hollywood’s Industry: The Cultural Conflicts between the U.S. and China Supervisor Simone Francescato Assistant supervisor Marco Perusi Savorelli Graduand Zeno Casti 845026 Academic Year 2018 / 2019 Abstract This study aims at identifying the analogies and differences between American culture and Chinese culture stemming from marketing strategies and their adaptation. It shows in particular that some Chinese literary masterpieces, including Sun Tzu’s The Art of War, can be considered as starting point and as inspiration for American financial strategy, business attitude and general approach to the American mentality and lifestyle. The objective of this research is to explain how the teachings contained in such works represent the cornerstones that inspired American successful entrepreneurial spirit and why they are considered now the key for American marketing approach to China and its enigmatic culture, especially through the translation of brands into Chinese language. The study then investigates the economic factors and cultural influences that China exercised over U.S. Film Industry, by focusing on the economic and cultural reasons why Hollywood decided, or rather, was forced to accept financing from China in order to expand (and save) their Film Industry and why Chinese film production companies chose to invest in this business to learn the know-how needed to produce successful films in China.

  • China's Political Ecology and the Fight Against Corruption
    China’s Political Ecology and the Fight against Corruption Joseph Fewsmith Since the 18th Party Congress convened in November 2012, China has undertaken a wide-ranging campaign against corruption. The campaign has gone on longer, cut deeper, and affected more people than anyone might have imagined two years ago. The course of the campaign has exposed in considerable depth many of the ills of political life in China. Although it seems intended to break up many of the “small circles” that pervade China’s political life, there is no question that the campaign has focused particular attention on the networks around Zhou Yongkang, the former head of China’s security forces, and Ling Jihua, the former head of the General Office. China’s leadership has promised the campaign will continue, so there are likely to be more surprises; perhaps one or more new “tigers” will be exposed. China’s fight against corruption really began with the conviction of Bo Xilai (薄熙来), the former party secretary of Chongqing municipality and an apparent contender for a seat on the party’s powerful Politburo Standing Committee (PBSC). But since Bo’s case was concluded prior to the 18th Party Congress, he is not mentioned in the running tab the People’s Daily website has maintained of ministerial-level cadres who have been taken in for investigation, and he is rarely mentioned in media articles discussing corruption. Perhaps the relative silence surrounding the Bo Xilai case since the 18th Party Congress is intended to minimize the political nature of the current campaign, though the recent arrest of Zhou Yongkang (周永康), the retired former head of the security apparatus, inevitably raises questions about Bo and politics in general.

  • An Analysis of the Narrative Strategy of Current Chinese Youth Films in the Light of Audiences’ Psychological Needs
    International Journal of Humanities Social Sciences and Education (IJHSSE) Volume 5, Issue 11, November 2018, PP 8-15 ISSN 2349-0373 (Print) & ISSN 2349-0381 (Online) http://dx.doi.org/10.20431/2349-0381.0511002 www.arcjournals.org An Analysis of the Narrative Strategy of Current Chinese Youth Films in the Light of Audiences’ Psychological Needs Yan Jun* School of Foreign Languages, Sichuan University of Science and Engineering, Zigong, China *Corresponding Author: Yan Jun, School of Foreign Languages, Sichuan University of Science and Engineering, Zigong, China Abstract: In recent years, quite few of youth films have made good box office performance. With close study it could be revealed that by meticulously choosing the narrator, applying ocularisation and anachronies, presenting sounds and scenes with time features, youth films generally possess narrative strategies which meet the physiological needs of the mainstream audience, especially those audiences born after 1980 and 1990s. That is an important reason for the popularity of youth films. Nevertheless, youth films are harshly criticized for their increasingly stereotyped narrative strategy and it will inevitably make the audience end up in aesthetic weariness. So, to maintain the audience’s enthusiasm, youth films should have their narrative pattern diversified, and the focus should be expanded to cover youth of different ages and different types of people. At the end of 2017, the film Youth attracted audiences born in 1950s and 1960s,by setting its background from 1960s to 1980s, although it has not completely jumped out of the narrative pattern of previous youth films. In 2018, Forever Young finally presented a new narrative pattern of the youth film by exploring the meaning of youth in different ages, and so expanded its circle of audience to people of several generations, and realized the transcendency of the narrative strategy of youth films.

  • The Journal of Shakespeare and Appropriation
    Borrowers and Lenders: The Journal of Shakespeare and Appropriation http://www.borrowers.uga.edu/1404/show (/current) ALEXA HUANG, PENNSYLVANIA STATE UNIVERSITY ABSTRACT | CAST OF MAQBOOL | CAST OF THE BANQUET (YE YAN) | NOTES | REFERENCES (/previous) (/about) ABSTRACT The introduction to this collection of multimedia essays on Maqbool and The Banquet argues that close examination of the films through a truly global array of appropriative strategies and cultural contexts can (/archive) help combat the tendency to report on rather than analyze non-Western works and thus can also prevent Asian films from being seen as merely exotic and disconnected from Shakespeare scholarship. Especially valuable for Shakespeareans are the ways in which the two films refashion Hamlet, Gertrude, Macbeth, Lady Macbeth, and other characters to shed new light on the visceral and political experiences enabled by these Shakespearean tragedies. Asian Shakespeares on Screen: Two Films in Perspective, special issue, edited by Alexa Huang, Borrowers and Lenders 4.2 (Spring/Summer 2009). The past decades have witnessed diverse incarnations and bold sequences of filmic re-imaginings that gave rise to productive encounters between the ideas of Asia and of Shakespeare in the global cultural marketplace. The beginning of the new millennium is for Asian cinematic Shakespeares (Huang and Ross 2009, 1-3) as the 1990s were for Anglophone Shakespeare on film — a "citationally rich intertextual environment" (Cartelli and Rowe 2007, 2). Shakespeare has been a part of the film and popular cultures of various Asian countries, with Romeo and Juliet, Macbeth, and Hamlet at the center of cinematic imaginations. Akira Kurosawa's Throne of Blood (Macbeth, 1957) and Ran (Lear, 1985) are far from the earliest or the only Shakespeare films from Asia.1 Among other locations, Shakespeare films have been produced in India, Malaysia, Tibet, Hong Kong, Singapore, China, and Japan.

All Rights Reserved. Introduction China, with a population of over 1.3 billion, has emerged as a global power player and taken the world by storm at the turn of the century. All eyes set on this vast 2.3 billion acres of landmass filled with infinite opportunity. It is on the same soil where 3 ordinary men succeed in doing what billion others can’t, by building a tutorial empire worth over US$5 billion in market value. Synopsis Wind the clock back to the year 1985. In the midst of the economic reform period, 3 college students bind together by a common ambition – to live the American dream. They are Cheng Dongqing, a overzealous hillbilly who refuses to accept his destiny of being a farmer; Meng Xiaojun, a self-confident, cynical intellectual who thinks he’s superior among all; and Wang Yang, a somewhat idealistic romanticist dreaming of becoming a poet.
