TOWARD A NEW STAGE

On September 21, during the general debate of the 76th Session of the UN General Assembly, Chinese President Xi Jinping proposed to all member states the building of a global community of development with a shared future. This initiative comes at a time when the world is halfway to meet-ing the UN's 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development, and at a time when COVID-19 has wreaked havoc on global development, and climate change is bringing both op-portunities and challenges. It aims to encourage countries to work together to steer the world toward a new stage of balanced, coordinated and inclu-sive growth. Inadequate, unbalanced and unequal development is a prob-lem faced by many countries and a major challenge to the international community. The solution put forward by Xi underlines the importance of common prosperity in achieving sus-tainable development and building a global development community.     

Consensus and Confidence

Investing over $30 billion in 80 projects, from clean energy to digital infrastructure. Setting up a $10-billion emergency assistance loan facility for COVID-19 control. Approving around $9 billion in loans under this program. These are a few examples of what the New Development Bank (NDB), a multilateral financial institution established by the BRICS countries— Brazil, Russia, India, China and South Africa, has achieved since its debut in 2015.     

The Contribution of the Belt and Road Initiative to the World's Right to Development

The Belt and Road Initiative makes an important contribution to the right to development in theory and practice in the current world. Since the reform and opening-up, the Chinese government puts the rights to subsistence and development before any other human rights, which effectively guarantees and accelerates a rapid economic development in China. Nowadays, countries along the Belt and Road have joined a "community of common destiny". Inside the "community of common destiny," countries have enjoyed not only the responsibility, rights and benefit of the right to development, but also a win-win cooperation that ensured the right to development. Therefore, the Belt and Road initiative enriches the UN Declaration on the Right to Development, and "community of common destiny" of countries becomes a higher form of the right to development.     

The 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development Sets Action Targets for Realizing the Right to Development in the New Era

During the three decades after the adoption of the Declaration on the Right to Development, the right to development has received wider acknowledgement throughout the international community, and has become a typical example of "third-generation rights." The 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development, which puts forward 17 goals of sustainable development, was adopted at the UN Sustainable Development Summit on September 25, 2015. From the contents of the agenda, we can see that the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development highly conforms to the right to development. Both match, not only in purpose and content, but also in object and subject, as well as in demands for countries and the foundations needed. We may regard the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development as setting action targets for the realization of the right to development in the new era. Meanwhile, to realize the right to development in the new situation is to accomplish the aim of the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development. The two adopt different approaches that lead to the same destination.     

Chinese Proposal,Global Echoes

The development philosophy of the Belt and Road Initiative (BRI), one of President Xi Jinping's signature projects, has reverberated across the international community following its splendid achievements benefiting people across its participating countries. Over the past eight years, regions across China have opened wider to the world through the initiative, and win-win cooperation has been achieved between China and participating countries, Xi said at a symposium on the initiative on November 19.

基于区位竞争优势的产业竞争力:整合与升级

随着全球化和新经济的深入发展,以信息技术为核心的新技术革命加速了国际分工和世界产业结构的全方位变革,在发达国家推动建立全球生产体系的过程中,后发国家通常面临两难选择:融入这一趋势很可能成为发达国家获取低成本要素的基地,陷入“轴与轮”的困境;反之则可能被排斥在全球经济社会发展浪潮之外,进而被“边缘化”。破解这一难题的关键是提升后发国家的产业竞争力。传统理论对于提升产业竞争力的理论指导已力不从心,因此,需要结合特定的经济成长阶段,从区位竞争优势的视角进行深入研究产业竞争力的理论内核、外生变量和成长方式,在区住竞争优势升级中提升产业竞争力。

女性个人自主性:解读离婚现象的新视角

本文通过对两个离婚个案的研究,从女性个人自主性的视角来考察在离婚的过程中不同的主体意识对离婚事件的影响。离婚事件中个体行为的差异实质上是女性个人自主性的反应,而个人自主性的程度与个体在社会结构中的位置有关。女性在家庭和社会中的双重角色在两个相反的方向上起作用:一方面,造成了她们周旋于家庭和社会的双重负担,使之成为弱势群体;而另一方面,又为个人自主性的成长提供了可选择的空间。离婚观念的不同,也和自主性有关。

国际组织在政策转移中的作用研究——以UNDP参与中国小额信贷政策为例

随着中国逐渐成为国际治理结构中的重要组成部分,国际组织反过来在中国政策变迁中也扮演着越来越重要的角色。本文通过辨析超国家组织的"超国家性"和国际组织的"国际性",提出了国际组织在跨国政策转移过程中的特殊作用。在实证上,文章研究了联合国发展计划署(UNDP)在中国小额信贷政策制定中的作用。UNDP在最近十多年间有策略地向中国政府推介小额信贷扶贫政策的过程中扮演着信息传播者、政策试验室和政策顾问三方面角色。另外,国际组织在对发展中国家的政策转移的消极影响主要表现为对发展中国家的政策主权和政策价值的冲击。
