    Comparison of the mainland and Hong Kong’s epidemic prevention policies from the perspective of collaborative governance

    Get PDF
    The evolution of the virus has further improved Omicron\u27s ability to spread, and the dynamic clearing policy of Hong Kong and the mainland will be severely challenged in 2022. To explore the implementation of anti-epidemic policies in Hong Kong and mainland China and their respective problems, this study starts from the perspective of collaborative governance, understands the work and performance of the government and other social organizations in the epidemic, and draws conclusions after analysis. This study found that both Hong Kong and the mainland have formed relatively complete epidemic prevention systems through literature research and qualitative interviews. In contrast, Hong Kong\u27s epidemic prevention policy is more relaxed, while the mainland\u27s epidemic prevention policy is more effective in preventing the spread of the virus. The mainland government has a certain affiliation with the community and has better power coordination and organizational coordination capabilities. The Hong Kong government has a cooperative relationship with NGOs, and NGOs in Hong Kong have greater autonomy and flexibility. On the other hand, from the perspective of collaborative governance, the mainland\u27s epidemic prevention system has problems such as bureaucratic practices and a lack of training for volunteers. In Hong Kong, there are problems such as improper resource allocation, poor communication between the government and NGOs, and low efficiency of rescue and support. In this regard, this study proposes that the two places should learn from each other and learn from each other\u27s successful experiences. The mainland should decentralize government power, promote the diversification of governance subjects, and attach importance to volunteer training and management of community workers. For Hong Kong, the government must allocate resources more rationally, strengthen cooperation with other social organizations, and provide more material and spiritual support for the citizens

    The Tang Dynasty : Quatrains : The boudoir and the frontier : High Tang

    Get PDF
    Although a small number of Six Dynasties heptasyllabic quatrains are extant, and Early Tang poets experimented with the form, stylistically mature qijue poetry was an invention of the High Tang poets, most notably Wang Changling and Li Bai. Qijue developed along with Tang popular music, for which it was the major song form. Thus initially the thematic scope was narrow: qijue lyrics were generally limited to popular yuefu themes and those describing parting from friends and loved ones. Only gradually did the scope of qijue themes expand, until by the Middle and Late Tang, the form had become a flexible tool for personal expression
