Domestic and International Challenges for the Textile Industry in Shaoxing (Zhejiang)
Special feature China perspectives Domestic and International Challenges for the Textile Industry in Shaoxing (Zhejiang) SHI LU ABSTRACT: This article recounts the transformations that have taken place in the textile industry in Shaoxing, Zhejiang Province, over the course of the past 30 years. It reveals the importance of the local setup and the links that have built up between companies, mar - kets, and the state and its departments. It also exposes the difficulties experienced by companies as they try to adapt to their changing environment, whether in terms of opportunities offered by the domestic or international markets, or new regulations. KEYWORDS: textile industry, clusters, developmental state, governance, market. Introduction markets increased, the cost of labour rose, and new environmental require - ments were imposed. This contribution looks back over the transformations he developmental state concept was developed by Chalmers Johnson and the ways in which companies have adapted to these changes in the in the early 1980s to describe the role of the state in the economic case of the textile industry in Zhejiang Province and, more particularly, in successes enjoyed by Japan, which he considered to have been un - the city of Shaoxing.

A Survey of Marine Coastal Litters Around Zhoushan Island, China and Their Impacts
Journal of Marine Science and Engineering Article A Survey of Marine Coastal Litters around Zhoushan Island, China and Their Impacts Xuehua Ma 1, Yi Zhou 1, Luyi Yang 1 and Jianfeng Tong 1,2,3,* 1 College of Marine Science, Shanghai Ocean University, Shanghai 201306, China; [email protected] (X.M.); [email protected] (Y.Z.); [email protected] (L.Y.) 2 National Engineering Research Center for Oceanic Fisheries, Shanghai 201306, China 3 Experimental Teaching Demonstration Center for Marine Science and Technology, Shanghai Ocean University, Shanghai 201306, China * Correspondence: [email protected] Abstract: Rapid development of the economy increased marine litter around Zhoushan Island. Social- ecological scenario studies can help to develop strategies to adapt to such change. To investigate the present situation of marine litter pollution, a stratified random sampling (StRS) method was applied to survey the distribution of marine coastal litters around Zhoushan Island. A univariate analysis of variance was conducted to access the amount of litter in different landforms that include mudflats, artificial and rocky beaches. In addition, two questionnaires were designed for local fishermen and tourists to provide social scenarios. The results showed that the distribution of litter in different landforms was significantly different, while the distribution of litter in different sampling points had no significant difference. The StRS survey showed to be a valuable method for giving a relative overview of beach litter around Zhoushan Island with less effort in a future survey. The questionnaire feedbacks helped to understand the source of marine litter and showed the impact on the local environment and economy. -

Chapter 2 Beijing's Internal and External Challenges
CHAPTER 2 BEIJING’S INTERNAL AND EXTERNAL CHALLENGES Key Findings • The Chinese Communist Party (CCP) is facing internal and external challenges as it attempts to maintain power at home and increase its influence abroad. China’s leadership is acutely aware of these challenges and is making a concerted effort to overcome them. • The CCP perceives Western values and democracy as weaken- ing the ideological commitment to China’s socialist system of Party cadres and the broader populace, which the Party views as a fundamental threat to its rule. General Secretary Xi Jin- ping has attempted to restore the CCP’s belief in its founding values to further consolidate control over nearly all of China’s government, economy, and society. His personal ascendancy within the CCP is in contrast to the previous consensus-based model established by his predecessors. Meanwhile, his signature anticorruption campaign has contributed to bureaucratic confu- sion and paralysis while failing to resolve the endemic corrup- tion plaguing China’s governing system. • China’s current economic challenges include slowing econom- ic growth, a struggling private sector, rising debt levels, and a rapidly-aging population. Beijing’s deleveraging campaign has been a major drag on growth and disproportionately affects the private sector. Rather than attempt to energize China’s econo- my through market reforms, the policy emphasis under General Secretary Xi has shifted markedly toward state control. • Beijing views its dependence on foreign intellectual property as undermining its ambition to become a global power and a threat to its technological independence. China has accelerated its efforts to develop advanced technologies to move up the eco- nomic value chain and reduce its dependence on foreign tech- nology, which it views as both a critical economic and security vulnerability. -

Although the province- leading-city reform has been discussed, there is still limited research about the decentralization reform for townships.
