Women’s Participation in Flag Football: Values, Challenges, and Development Pathways

Chenhuize Gao, Guanlin Ou

Vol. 6, No. 10, pp. 206-211, 2026 DOI: 10.54691/9hq6ac90 October 19, 2026

Abstract.Flag football has developed rapidly as a low-contact form of American football and has created new opportunities for women and girls to participate in a traditionally male-dominated sporting domain. Recent research has begun to examine female flag football athletes directly, particularly in relation to physical qualities, injury epidemiology, and mental health, while earlier scholarship has addressed gendered participation and coeducational flag-football environments. This paper synthesizes the value, challenges, and development pathways of women’s participation in flag football. The evidence … Read more →

Visual Rhetoric and Image Ethnography of Religious Ritual Syncretism in Cross-Cultural Contexts

Yucheng Zhang

Vol. 6, No. 10, pp. 156-162, 2026 DOI: 10.54691/vm3rah13 October 19, 2026

Abstract.When foreign religions enter new territories, they must adapt to local customs and traditions in order to achieve stable development and intergenerational transmission. They also need to align with the everyday aesthetic preferences of ordinary people. Traditional religious doctrines are mostly recorded in written form, which tends to be theoretical and dry, making them difficult for the general public to understand and thus limiting their widespread dissemination among common folk. Religious rituals, on the other hand, inherently incorporate various patterns, symbols, and visual elements that … Read more →

Trade Partner Diversification and Changes in Asymmetric Trade Dependence

Zhanming Hu

Vol. 6, No. 10, pp. 174-181, 2026 DOI: 10.54691/kbr7ns25 October 19, 2026

Abstract.Trade partner diversification is often treated as evidence that economic dependence has declined. In global supply chains, however, a change in direct suppliers may leave important parts of the original relationship intact. Hirschman's analysis of foreign trade and national power explains why limited alternatives can place one country in a weaker position when a trade relationship is disrupted, while Farrell and Newman's network approach helps explain why dependence can remain in important upstream positions even after bilateral trade changes. Japan's rare-earth diversification after 2010 … Read more →

Thoughts on the Long-Term Governance Model of Social Media from the Perspective of Media-Cultural Ecology

Ziyao Yang

Vol. 6, No. 10, pp. 39-45, 2026 DOI: 10.54691/3cwbad86 October 19, 2026

Abstract.By the end of 2025, there will be around 1.125 billion Internet users across China and an Internet penetration rate of 80.1 per cent. WeChat had approximately 1.418 billion monthly active users, Weibo had around 567 million, and Xiaohongshu was over 400 million. The occurrence of false information, cyberbullying, algorithmic echo chambers and vulgar content in the large-scale digital public space indicates structural deficiencies in the traditional special rectification campaigns. Theoretically, media cultural ecology is used to view society and the world of media as an integrated cultural … Read more →

The World of Action: On the Aesthetic Style of Moby-Dick and Melville’s Anxiety of Modernity

Xizi Li

Vol. 6, No. 10, pp. 118-124, 2026 DOI: 10.54691/7qee4z65 October 19, 2026

Abstract.With its unique ''anti-form'' aesthetic style, Moby-Dick constructs ''the world of action.'' This literary phenomenon is manifested not only in the novel’s integration and innovation of diverse genres—scientific knowledge, drama, opera, political critique, and philosophical essay—but also in its demonstration of Melville’s profound reflection on the pursuit of certainty through an argument for abundance. The formation of this aesthetic style is rooted in multiple anxieties embedded in the modernization of nineteenth-century America dominated by ''action'': interpretive anxiety in confrontation … Read more →

Drawing on qualitative in-depth interviews, this study shifts attention from macro-level unemployment indicators to individuals' lived experiences and examines the dynamic mechanisms through which youth "suspension" is produced. The findings show that this predicament stems primarily … Read more →
