Empirical Study on the Influence of Internet Use on the Employability of Local College Students

Abstract: Based on the data of China Family Panel Studies (CFPS) in 2020, this paper analyzes the impact of Internet use on the employability of local college students through OLS and logit regression models. The study found that the Internet has become an important tool for local college students to improve their employability. Students who actively participate in online learning, use career recruitment platforms and social media to expand career networks in local colleges and universities show stronger competitiveness in terms of professional skills, comprehensive quality and job search skills. The importance of Internet use to work, learning and information channels has a significant impact on the employability of local college students, and has a significant moderating effect. Through heterogeneity analysis, it is found that the impact of Internet use on the employability of local college students in eastern China is significantly higher than that in central and western China : the employability of college students with urban household registration is higher than that of local college students with rural household registration, and the employability of female local college students is lower than that of male local college students. Therefore, this study suggests that local colleges and universities should further guide students to make rational use of Internet resources and strengthen network literacy education, so as to better adapt to the employment market demand and promote high-quality employment of graduates.

Why Do Global Cities Engage with Global Climate Governance? The Case Studies of Shanghai and Chicago

Abstract: As climate change intensifies, cities-particularly global cities-are emerging as critical players in addressing its challenges. Rising sea levels, extreme weather events, and other climate-related impacts threaten urban areas, compelling cities to take action. This article explores the motivations behind global cities' engagement in global climate governance, focusing on both internal and external drivers. Using Chicago and Shanghai as case studies, the research investigates how cities' roles as policy implementers, combined with the pursuit of political and economic gains, push them to the forefront of climate leadership. Externally, the inability of international negotiations to make significant progress, along with gaps in the global governance system, compels cities to intervene and address these shortcomings. By analyzing these dynamics, the paper highlights the growing importance of cities as influential actors in global climate governance and emphasizes their unique capacity to drive climate action.

The Application Path of the Rule of Presumption of Evidence in Maritime Administrative Cases

Abstract: Article 35 of the Coast Guard Law of the People's Republic of China stipulates the rules for presumption of evidence in handling maritime administrative cases, which is a clear legal provision for the reversal of the burden of proof. The parties involved need to bear the complete burden of proof. In the specific application of administrative cases, maritime police agencies should strictly focus on the three basic elements of the presumption basis, basic facts, and illegal facts of the evidence presumption rule. Article 35 of the Maritime Police Law is both a presumption basis and a judicial norm. Maritime police agencies need to bear the burden of proof for the basic facts of the destruction of evidence by the parties. After reaching the standard of proof that eliminates reasonable suspicion, they can infer that the parties have violated the law. At the same time, in order to safeguard their legitimate rights and interests, the parties may refute the basic facts claimed by the maritime police agency or prove that the presumed facts of the maritime police agency are incorrect, but they do not demand a higher standard of proof for the basic facts than the maritime police agency.

Conflict and Coordination: Analysis of the Rule of Law Construction in the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area

Abstract: Under the system of "one country, two systems", the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area is characterized by "one country, two systems and three legal regions" and is prone to interregional legal conflicts. The so-called inter-regional legal conflict refers to the conflict in the application of law brought by the implementation of relevant social, political and economic activities due to the different legal provisions, which will hinder the high-quality development of economic and social stability. To resolve interregional legal conflicts and realize the coordinated development of the rule of law in Guangdong, Hong Kong and Macao are the key tasks of "one country, two systems" in the new era. The rule of law coordination between Guangdong, Hong Kong and Macao has its policy and economic foundation. Although many achievements have been made in the coordinated development of the rule of law in the Greater Bay Area, it cannot meet the needs of the coordinated and in-depth development of the rule of law in the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area in the new era. Referring to the path of building a law-based society, the coordination of the rule of law in the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area mainly involves three links: the construction of the rule of law coordination organization, both the carrot and the stick, the convergence of rules and the construction of the mechanism for resolving disputes.

Legal Analysis of Issues Related to User-Generated Content in Derivative Works

Abstract: In the information age, the barriers to individual creative production have significantly lowered, leading to new developments in the arts, while also giving rise to various legal issues. One such challenge lies in defining originality and the boundaries of infringement in derivative works. This is especially problematic on user-generated content (UGC) platforms, where new forms of creative expression, such as video mashups, lack clear standards for determining infringement. By comparing international practices and considering the specific context of China, this paper seeks to balance the interests of creators, platforms, and original authors. The goal is to encourage creativity while respecting the copyright of original authors, ultimately achieving a win-win situation in the creative market and fostering cultural innovation and freedom of expression.

Research on the Risk of Local Government Debt in China and the Path of Prevention and Control

Abstract: Over the past several years, the scale of local government debt in our country has rapidly expanded, sparking widespread societal concern over the escalating debt risks. As a critical component of fiscal expenditure, local government debt exerts a dual effect on economic development; it can stimulate local economic growth through investment but also pose a potential fiscal risk due to excessive borrowing. The accumulation of local government debt is attributable to deficiencies in the fiscal system and governance mechanisms, as well as the impact of changing external economic conditions. By analyzing the current state and causes of local government debt, clarifying the manifestations of risk, and drawing on international experiences, this paper proposes a series of preventive measures. This is not only crucial for safeguarding the fiscal health of local governments but also imperative for ensuring the long-term stable development of China's economy. Based on a review of the risks associated with local government debt, this article explores pathways for prevention and control, offering theoretical support and policy recommendations for optimizing local debt management in China.

Cultural Analysis of Female Cross-Gender Expression in Social Networks: A Case Study of Image Presentation in Douyin Short Videosv

Abstract: With the continuous development of the internet and the growing awareness of women's social consciousness, the forms of self-expression by women on digital platforms have become increasingly diverse. Among these, female cross-gender performance has emerged as a key strategy of self-presentation in social networks. This paper analyzes two distinct expression strategies on the Douyin short video platform to explore and critically reflect on current female cross-gender expressions. The explicit expression strategy employs makeup, cross-dressing, and role-playing to simulate male personas, challenging traditional gender stereotypes. The implicit expression strategy, on the other hand, mocks male “ bad habits ” through the imitation of male behaviors and the use of symbolic metaphors, carrying a satirical undertone. However, these strategies have their limitations: male images are often idealized and trivialized, reinforcing gender norms; and constrained by patriarchal frameworks, they fail to genuinely subvert gender roles and the gender binary. As a result, while female cross-gender expression challenges gender stereotypes, it also faces risks of being disciplined and misinterpreted. Read More
