The Complexity of Religious Traditions in Quanzhou 泉州 under Mongol Rule: An Inscription from Chunyang 純陽 Cave in Mt. Qingyuan 清源, Quanzhou
No full textThis paper discusses the complexity of the religious traditions in Quanzhou (Fujian, China), the largest international trade port under Mongol rule. The contribution of presumed Persian Muslim Pu Shougeng 蒲壽庚to the reconstruction of a Taoist-Buddhist shrine was taken as the case study. The external conditions surrounding his composite religious act (beyond private beliefs) were also observed in terms of individual goals, backgrounds, and social networks. For this purpose, the author presents the Chinese stone inscription from Quanzhou (in Fujian, China) titled “Zhong jian Qingyuan Chunyang dong ji 重建清源純陽洞記 (Record of Reconstruction of the Chunyang Cave in Qingyuan Mountain),” dated to the fourth year of Hou-Zhiyuan 後至元 (1338) during the Yuan period
Relevance Proof of Safety Culture in Coal Mine Industry
No full textThis paper intends to use data to verify the correlation between safety culture, safety management system and safety knowledge, safety awareness, and safety habits, which is the correlation between the various parts of the behavior safety “2-4” model. Due to data limitations, the results are limited to the study of safety culture related relationships in coal mining enterprises. This paper first designed a questionnaire containing 30 questions, of which 1–5 questions represent safety culture, 6–22 questions represent safety management system, and 23–30 questions represent safety knowledge, safety awareness and safety habits. Employees of 27 coal mining enterprises in Shandong, Henan, Hunan and other places in China were surveyed and sampled by stratified random sampling, and 1514 valid questionnaires were obtained. After item analysis and correlation analysis, and it was found that, within the data of 1514 questionnaires, the item total correlation coefficients of questions 6, 9, 19 and 28 were all less than 0.2, indicating that the identification degree of these four items was poor, which was deleted. Using the data analysis of the remaining 26 questions in the questionnaire, it was found that the relationship between safety culture and the safety management system, the safety management system and safety knowledge, and safety awareness and safety habits is moderately related; safety culture and safety knowledge, safety awareness and safety habits are weakly related. The conclusion shows that the safety culture directly affects the safety management system; the safety management system directly affects the safety knowledge, safety awareness and safety habits; the safety culture indirectly affects safety knowledge, safety awareness and safety habits. However, why the expected strong correlation is not achieved, and whether the same conclusion can be obtained if the data scale is expanded or other types of enterprises are added for questionnaire measurement, these are questions worthy of further study, which is also the author’s next research content

No full textIn this thesis, we first use the reachability theory to develop algorithms for state predictionunder delayed state or output measurements. We next develop control strategies forcollision avoidance and trajectory tracking of UAVs based on the devised algorithms andthe model predictive control theory. Finally, simulations results for collision avoidanceand trajectory tracking problems are presented, for different communication delays,using a UAV model with 6 degrees of freedom.I denna avhandling använder vi först tillgänglighetsteorin för att utveckla algoritmerför tillståndsförutsägelse under fördröjda tillstånds- eller utgångsmätningar. Därefterutvecklar kontrollstrategier för undvikande av kollision och spårning av UAV: er baseradepå de planerade algoritmerna och modellen förutsägbar kontrollteori. Slutligenpresenteras simuleringsresultat för att undvika kollision och problem med spårningav banan, för olika kommunikationsförseningar, med en UAV-modell med 6 frihetsgrader
China’s response to a national land-system sustainability emergency
No full textData source: Supplementary information, 10.1038/s41586-018-0280-2China has responded to a national land-system sustainability emergency via an integrated portfolio of large-scale programmes. Here we review 16 sustainability programmes, which invested US), covered 623.9 million hectares of land and involved over 500 million people, mostly since 1998. We find overwhelmingly that the interventions improved the sustainability of China's rural land systems, but the impacts are nuanced and adverse outcomes have occurred. We identify some key characteristics of programme success, potential risks to their durability, and future research needs. We suggest directions for China and other nations as they progress towards the Sustainable Development Goals of the United Nations' Agenda 2030.Brett A.

No full textThe role of tax law in mergers and acquisitions: a Chinese perspective
No full textPh.D.As China has emerged as one of the most vibrant mergers and acquisitions (M&A) markets, the income tax treatment of corporate reorganizations is attracting increasing attention from the public. The enactment of the Notice on Several Issues on the Enterprise Income Tax Treatment of Enterprise Reorganizations in 2009 has triggered heated debates on the efficacy of China's M&A taxation system. In the center of the debate lies the question of what kind of role tax law should play in M&A transactions.The Chinese government, on the one hand, is eager to use tax breaks to stimulate M&A transactions. On the other hand, it is very willing to follow Western tax theories to "modernize" China's tax system. The aggressive use of tax incentives clashes with the attempt to westernize the tax law, leading to a system full of inconsistencies and loopholes.As the problem has roots in the contradiction between fundamental tax policies, slight modifications to the current system are destined to achieve very little. This research applies a systematic approach to solving the problem. It examines a variety of taxation principles and demonstrates that tax neutrality should be the overarching guiding principle for taxing M&A transactions. Under the guidance of tax neutrality, this research offers an in-depth analysis of two major issues in China's M&A taxation system, one relating to the special tax treatment for M&A transactions and the other to the disparity in the tax treatment between different forms of M&A transactions. Based on the analysis, this research makes some recommendations for improving China's M&A taxation system.随着中国成为全球范围内并购重组活动最为活跃的国家之一，中国企业及其股东在并购重组中所面临的所得税问题越来越为公众所关注。自2009年财政部和国家税务总局颁布《关于企业重组业务企业所得税处理若干问题的通知》至今，中国的并购重组所得税制取得了长足的发展,但也引发了许许多多的争议。争议的核心在于：税法应在公司并购重组交易中起何种作用。很遗憾，迄今为止中国立法者对税法在并购活动中应当扮演的角色以及并购所得税制背后的逻辑缺乏清晰的认识。中国政府一方面渴望利用税收优惠去刺激并购市场的发展，但另一方面又在大规模借鉴西方税法理论对中国税制进行"现代化"改造。前述两种税收政策之间的巨大张力是现行制度中诸多混乱与漏洞的根源。如若无法妥善处理此种张力，任何对现行制度的修缮都将事倍功半。有鉴于此，本文决定对中国的并购重组所得税制展开系统性研究。本文首先剖析了一系列税法原则，证明税收中性原则应当成为中国并购重组所得税制的指导原则，并主张比照税收中性原则改进现行制度。以此为基础，本文深入分析了现行制度中的两个重大议题，即针对并购重组的特殊性税务处理以及对不同并购交易模式的差异化税收处理，并就完善中国并购重组所得税制提出了若干具体的建议。Zhang, Chunyang.Thesis Ph.D. Chinese University of Hong Kong 2019.Includes bibliographical references (leaves 210-224).Abstracts also in Chinese.Title from PDF title page (viewed on 23, December, 2020)

No full textParabens are alkyl esters of p-hydroxybenzoic acid and are used as antimicrobial preservatives in a range of consumer products, including cosmetics, pharmaceuticals, and foodstuffs. Despite their widespread use, prior to this study, paraben concentrations in foodstuffs from China and human dietary exposure to these chemicals have been unknown. In this study, concentrations of six parabens were determined in 13 categories of food samples (n = 282), including cereals and cereal products, meat, fish and seafood, eggs, dairy products, bean products, fruits, vegetables, cookies, beverages, cooking oils, condiments, and others, collected from nine cities in China. Almost all (detection rate: 99%) food samples contained at least one of the parabens analyzed, and the total concentrations (Sigma Parabens; sum of six parabens) ranged from below limit of quantification (LOQ) to 2530 ng/g fresh weight, with an overall mean value of 39.3 ng/g. Methyl paraben (MeP), ethyl paraben (EtP), and propyl paraben (PrP) were the major paraben analogs found in foodstuffs, and these compounds accounted for 59%, 24%, and 10%, respectively, of Sigma Paraben concentrations. Although the mean concentrations of Sigma Parabens varied among different categories of food items (from 0.839 ng/g in beverages to 100 ng/g in vegetables), the concentrations were not statistically significant among the 13 food categories, including canned foodstuffs. Estimated daily intake (EDI) of parabens was based on the measured concentrations in foods and the corresponding daily food ingestion rates. The mean and 95th percentile values for EDI were 1010 and 3040 ng/kg body weight (bw)/day for adult men and 1060 and 3170 ng/kg bw/day for adult women, respectively. (C) 2013 Elsevier Ltd.
