Abstract.Investigate the restoration logic of damaged traditional mural images and its link to digital research on Song, Yuan, and Ming Murals in Southern Shanxi. Restoration should not be seen merely as a technical problem of image completion; rather, based on iconographic structure, pictorial order, material evidence and conservation ethics, the mural needs to be reconstructed. Based on research in murals, restoration theory and new studies on digital image repair, this paper will explore how damaged mural pictures can be interpreted through a series of steps: documentation, structural analysis, … Read more →

Abstract.Campaign-style governance, as a distinctive national governance mechanism in China, constitutes a pivotal research topic in the field of public administration. Current research, whose theoretical framework is rooted in the practices of the country’s transitional period, confronts challenges including ambiguous triggering factors and the tension between "transcendence" (breaking bureaucratic norms) and "normalization" (long-term effectiveness and institutionalization) amid deepening legal development. This paper introduces the theory of sovereign decision-making proposed by Carl Schmitt and … Read more →

Abstract.Against the backdrop of the popularization, social networking, and digitalization of outdoor sport, nonprofit “AA” groups—an indigenous Chinese form of self-organized outdoor participation in which members share activity-related costs—have increasingly become an organizational form situated between individualized sport participation and formal sport organizations. This review synthesizes scholarship on nonprofit sport organizations, self-organized mass sport groups, cost-sharing outdoor activities, outdoor sport participants, and outdoor leaders. It maps the literature across five … Read more →

Abstract.Older residential community renovation combines spatial upgrading with the governance of fragmented stakeholders, differentiated demands, and weak community trust. Viewing public-relations governance as relational communication and trust-building rather than publicity, this paper examines the links among public opinion expression, governmental attention and response, and multi-actor coordination. Public attention helps local governments identify needs, but its translation into renewal outcomes depends on issue translation, consultation, interest balancing, and post-renovation maintenance. … Read more →

Abstract.The system of compensation for mental distress established by the Civil Code substantially strengthens the protection of citizens' personality rights and interests. It constitutes an institutional innovation in the protection of non-pecuniary interests, responds to the diverse needs of social life, and provides an institutional foundation for remedies against mental harm. The system rests on abundant jurisprudential support: it protects personality rights, is guided by fundamental legal principles, and operates as a form of legal responsibility. It is therefore well suited to contemporary … Read more →

Abstract.Historical performance practice (HPP) has transformed the approach to the study and performance of early music since the 1970s. Initially, many musicians were interested in using period instruments, historical documents and some of the older techniques in order to gain insight into how music may have sounded in the past. Subsequent conversations raised the issue of whether it was possible to perform it in a "100 per cent" authentic manner. Thus, starting to understand historical evidence became more like an art of interpretation for the performers. This paper discusses these developments, and … Read more →
