TRACE FOSSILS IN PLEISTOCENE SANDY DEPOSITS FROM GRAVINA AREA SOUTHERN ITALY
Authors: D'ALESSANDRO A. , BROMLEY R.G.
Published: November 2023

The ichnology of the Pleistocene sand sequence of Gravina is described. The trace fossils provide evidence for marine coastal environments, ranging from the lower infralittoral to intertidal. The study is based on two sections, at Lama La Noce and at Notargiacomo's Quarry respectively. Meniscate backfill structures produced by echinoids (Schizaster canaliferus) occur in thin clay horizons. Sand subst-rates are dominated by Ophiomorpha, Thalassinoides, Cylindrichnus and vertical equilibrium traces. Two new ichnospecies are erected: Cylindrichnus errans, which has lateral spreite—like displacement of the shaft: and Dactyloidites peniculus for finely branched, radiating spreite structures.
I RAPPORTI TRA TETTONICA E SEDIMENTAZIONE NELL'EVOLUZIONE RECENTE DELL'ASPROMONTE OCCIDENTALE (CALABRIA)
Authors: BARRIER PASCAL , Dl GERONIMO ITALO , LANZAFAME GIANNI
Published: November 2023

Sur le versant occidental de l'Aspromonte des systèmes de failles individualisent diverses entités tectono—sédimentaires plio—pléistocenes. Ces entités ont été examinées le long de trois profils afin d'en préciser la stratigraphie, la sédimentologie et la tectonique. La sédimentation dans l'entité la plus septentrionale, de Villa, couvre un intervalle de temps compris entre le Pliocène inférieur basal et le Pliocène supérieur avec une ligne de rivage arrivant à la hauteur du Monte Mannoli (982 m au dessus du niveau de la mer). Au Pléistocène le domaine marin dans cette entité est reduit au secteur de Musalà (sables littoraux de Musalà). Plus au sud, dans l'entité de Reggio Calabria, la base de la série est d'age Pliocène inférieur sommital alors que dans l'entité méridionale du Capo dell'Armi elle est Pléistocène inférieur. Au moment où la mer atteint son maximum d'expansion ces deux derniers bassins sont unis avec une ligne de rivage que rejoint le Monte Embrisi qui se trouve aujourd'hui à une altitude de 1.050 m. La découverte dans cette dernière localité de faune infra—pléistocène a permis de dater les plus hauts sédiments plio— pléistocènes de l'Aspromonte et d'apprécier ainsi le taux de soulèvement de la région, qui est de l'ordre de quelques millimètres par an.

Le diachronisme évident de l'extension marine des diverses entités est directement lié aux jeux diachrones des systèmes de failles qui ont commandé l'évolution recente de ce secteur de l'Aspromonte
THE VILLAFRANCHIAN EQUINES FROM THE UPPER VALDARNO
Authors: PRIVAT DEFAUS JOSEFINA
Published: November 2023

Del análisis morfológico de todos los huesos de las antiguas colecciones florentinas podemos deducir que desde hace aproximadamente 1.7 miliones de años hasta hace 1.5—1.4 vivieron en el Valdarno superior dos especies equinas distintas: E. stenonis (forma de talla grande) y E. stehlini (forma de talla pequeña) .

Dos nuevos yacimientos con ubicacion estratigráfica precisa, Matassino y Casa F rata, nos hacen suponer que la forma pequeña y la grande no vivieron en asociacion.

El análisis estadístico efectuado sobre los metatarsios y metacarpios de las antiguas colecciones revela que un gran numero de ellos poseen longitudes intermedias entre E. stenonis y E. stehlini, lo que puede significar una evolución progresiva desde la especie grande a la pequeña.
STRATIGRAFIA E PALEOGEOGRAFIA DEL NORICO NELLE PREALPI BERGAMASCHE OCCIDENTALI
Authors: JADOUL FLAVIO
Published: November 2023

The stratigraphy of the thick and well—bedded Norian carbonate sequence cropping out in the Southern Calcareous Alps NW of Bergamo is reviewed. The formal name Aralalta Group is introduced to include the Zorzino Limestone, the Dolomie Zonate formations and the "Brecce sommitali della Dolomia Principale" member. Five regional (A—E) and four local (Al, El, E2, E 3) facies have been distinguished in the Aralalta Group: chaotic massive breccias (A), locally bounded by encrusting organism (Al); debris flow breccias and proximal torbidites (B); torbiditic dolomitic arenites (C); thin bedded laminites— microtorbidites (D); micritic limestones, distal torbidites (E), locally thin bedded with black clay (El), bioclastic limestones with slumpings (E2) and patch reefs (E3). The Aralalta Group is time—equivalent with the upper part of the Dolomia Principale, a classic example of inner platform. The detailed study of sedimentary structures and microfacies demonstrates that the evolution of the Dolomia Principale platform margin was in Artavaggio—Val Taleggio area structurally controlled.

STRATIGRAFIA E PALEOGEOGRAFIA DEL CARNICO LOMBARDO (SONDAGGIO S. GALLO, VALLE BREMBANA)
Authors: GARZANTI EDUARDO , JADOUL FLAVIO
Published: November 2023

Studies on the most southern and complete Carnian sequence of the Bergamasc Alps (S. Gallo well) and of several exposed stratigraphic sections throw new light on the paleogeographic evolution and the metallogenesis of the Pb—Zn—Fluorite—Barite Gorno district. In the Early Carnian (Calcare Metallifero Bergamasco and Basal Tongue of the Gorno Fm.) , an open lagoon with mixed calcareous—terrigenous sedimentation passed northward to carbonate tidal flats and was fringed by karstified carbonate paleo—highs. Next, the great supply of terrigenous detritus from a southern volcanic belt brought about the progradation of a fluviodeltaic body (Val Sabbia Sandstone) and confined carbonate sedimentation to an outer zone.
PALEONTOLOGICAL DESCRIPTIONS OF SOME RUDISTS FROM THE UPPER CRETACEOUS OF OSTUNI (BR - ITALY)
Authors: LAVIANO ANGELA
Published: November 2023

Systematic study of Rudists collected from the Upper Cretaceous of Ostuni (Apulia) led to the identification of species, some recorded for the first time in this area. Special attention has been paid to Biradiolites monopterus (Pirona), found in very large number. The conspicuous number of specimens and their excellent preservation allowed us to conduct a series of observations in order to ascertain the range of morphological variability of these species.
VARIABILITA DEL BRACHIDIO Dl GRYPHUS MINOR (PHILIPPI) TEREBRATULIDA, BRACHIOPODA
Authors: SACCÀ DOMENICA
Published: November 2023

A sample of 104 specimens of Gryphus minor (Philippi), collected in a single bed in Lower Pleistocene clays of Croce Valanidi (Reggio Calabria, Italy) is here considered. The variation of the brachidium was studied by means of 11 characters. Length and width of the brachial valve were also measured. Basic statistics were carried out on these data, as well on the comparisons between characters.

Results indicate a wide range of variation for most of the characters of the brachidium, and a positive correlation between length and width of the brachial valve, length and width of the brachidium.

Other correlations between general outline of the valve and brachidium characters are scanty. Hints from this study to the Terebratulid taxonorny seem to suggest that, due to the Wide range of variation of the brachidium, the use of few specimens to discriminate between nearby species could result unsatisfactory

Authors: DELLA BRUNA GUIDO , MARTIRE LUCA
Published: November 2023

The Feltrine Alps, a small mountain relief located few km north of Feltre (Belluno) consist of an over 600 m thick carbonate succession that spans in age from Late Triassic to Early Cretaceous. The Feltrine Alps belong to the paleogeographic unit called "Trento Platform", a structural high which formed in Early Liassic time, laterally limited by two subsiding basins: the Lombardian Basin to the west and the Belluno Trough to the east.

The present work concerns only the Pliensbachian to Kimmeridgian interval. Nine stratigraphic sections were measured in detail and rich ammonite faunas of Toarcian, Aalenian and Bajocian ages were collected and studied.

L'UNITA Dl BORGHETTO ED 1 SUOI LEGAMI CON QUELLA Dl MOGLIO—TESTICO (ALPI LIGURI): CONSEGUENZE PALEOGEOGRAFICHE
Authors: GALBIATI BENITO
Published: November 2023

The reasons for an early Cenozoic age of the basal part of the Borghetto succession, as an alternative to an upper Cretaceous age, are re—proposed.

Moglio Pelites have been found at the stratigraphic base of the "prepiemontese" succession of Borghetto. This proves that the paleogeographical location of the above succession had to be contiguous with the one of the Moglio—Testico unit, which was therefore interposed between the Borghetto deposition area and the San Remo one.

The olistostromes of Moglio Pelites retraceable inside and at the top of the mentioned Borghetto succession show that in the domains, which the western Liguria flysch come from, the tectogenesis started before the San Remo—M. Saccarello unit had been overthrust towards the external Brianzonese.
A NEW LEPIDOSAUR (REPTILIA) FROM THE NORIAN BEDS OF THE BERGAMO PREALPS (PRELIMINARY NOTE)
Authors: RENESTO SILVIO
Published: November 2023

In this preliminary note is described a new norian reptile, Endennasaurus acu tirostris, found in the Zorzino Limestone, in the small quarry of Endenna, near Zogno in the Bergamo Prealps (Lombardy, N. Italy). The specimen, belonging to a new genus and species, is exposed on ventral side, so that nothing can be said about the skull roof pattern. Nevertheless other characters such as the pattern of the pelvic and shoulder girdle, and of the tarsus allow us to consider this specimen as a Lepidosaur and to put it among the Eosuchia sensu Peyer & Kuhn—Schnyder (1955) awaiting a further more complete study to define better the taxonomic position of Endennasaurus acutirostris.
NUOVE MICROFACIES DEL TRIAS SUPERIORE NELLE BRECCE Dl MONTE GALERO (ALPI MARITTIME)
Authors: DALLAGIOVANNA G. , LUALDI A. , MOSNA S.
Published: November 2023

Late Triassic new microfacies are described from the Maritime Alps. They are contained in lithoclasts from the Brecce of M. Galero Formation. The Foraminifera Glomospirella friedli Kristan Tollmann and Agathammina austroalpina Kristan—Tollmann & Tollmann indicating a Late Triassic age were identified. The sedimentary features document a shallow—water, high energy environment with some redeposited particles. An intrabasinal derivation from Prepiemontese (Case Tuberto, Arnasco— Castelbianco) or Brianzonese units is suggested.

Published: November 2023

The activity of the first Hercynian tectonic phase is documented in the Lake Mulargia area (central Sardinia) by the presence of numerous tectonic units. We have examined in particular the southern region of the lake, where one of the upper tectonic units (the Bruncu Maresusus Unit) outcrops. It has at its base a thick silicoclastic succession where we have found Tremadocian Acritarchs in its stratigraphically upper part. This formation is time—equivalent to the Solanas Formation and the Arenarie di San Vito Auct. Another tectonic unit, Bruncu Brevexilis, constitu ted from bottom to top of metavolcanities of probable middle Ordovician age and fossiliferous sediments of Caradocian, Silurian and Devonian age, is also present in the same area and lies under the Bruncu Maresusus Unit.

LIVELLI CALCAREI CLASTICI DEL MIOCENE SUPERIORE E PLIOCENE NEL SOTTOSUOLO MOLISANO-PUGLIESE
Authors: CASNEDI R. , BALDUZZI A.
Published: November 2023

The Molise and Apulia subsurface exploration has found clastic calcareous layers at the top of the Mesozoic—Miocene carbonate sequence and within the Middle Pliocene turbidites. The first are the result of Karst—fissures and crushing on the structural highs and mass flows at the base of fault slopes. Within the turbidites a biocalcarenitic horizon IS an electric good marker which proves an event of a shelf build up. It corresponds to the Middle Pliocene gap widely developed in the Apennines.
ANISIAN SEDIMENTATION AND TECTONICS OF THE M. PORE — M. CERNERA AREA (DOLOMITES)
Authors: BLENDINGER WOLFGANG
Published: November 2023

Vengono descritti l'ambiente deposizionale e la tettonica anisica nella regione del M. Pore e M. Cernera (Dolomiti orientali).

La parte anisica (?) della Formazione di Werfen (Membro di Cencenighe, Membro di San Lucano) è caratterizzata da una sedimentazione clastica e carbonatica, che passa a una facies evaporitica nella parte superiore. Dopo una breve emersione si sono depositati carbonati peritidali (Formazione 'del Serla inferiore). Nel Pelsonico inferiore questa piattaforma si disintegra. La deposizione del sovrastante Gruppo di Braies comincia con conglomerati fluviali (Conglomerati di Pizsda Peres intermedi), La trasgressione successiva inizia con sedimenti di spiaggia (Formazione di Agordo) e passa a siltiti bacinali (Formazione di Dont, Pelsonico — Illirico inferiore). Nell'Illirico inferiore una regressione causa l'avanzamento di una piattaforma carbonatica ( «formazione calcarea») da ovest ad est verso il bacino. Forti afflussi terrigeni soffocano localmente Io sviluppo della piattaforma nella parte inferiore (?) dell'Illirico superiore (Conglomerati di Piz da Peres superiori). Nell'Illirico superiore si estende di nuovo l'ambiente di una piattaforma carbonatica (Formazione del Serla superiore). Contemporaneamente si approfondisce un bacino verso est, dove vengono depositate marne e torbiditi (Formazione delt'Ambata).
EVOLUZIONE DEL SETTORE SETTENTRIONALE DELLA PIATTAFORMA CARBONATICA ADRIATICA
Authors: CAVALLIN ANGELO , PIRINI RADRIZZANI CAMILLA
Published: November 2023

The eastern Southern Alps are characterized by the superimposition of alpine and dinaric tectonic clcmcnts; the bedrock Of the Friulan plane is composed by structural elements that represent the prosecution of the External Dinarides.

This structural setting is the result of the dinaric, alpine and, partly, apenninic tectogeno—sedimentary processes which affected from the Upper Cretaceous to the present an area with peculiar palaeogeographic characters. During the Jurassic—Cretaceous times infact an ' 'adriatic" carbonatic platform developed with some basins at its- edges: the Belluno, Carnic and Tolmino basins.

The authors propose here, on the basis of stratigraphic, tectonic and physiographic elements and with palaeogeographic reconstruction, an evolutionary model of the area that takes in account all these factors, thelr influence and their interactions.

OCCURRENCE OF LIASSIC FAUNAS AT WAANEY (UANEI) PROVINCE OF BAY, SOUTH—WESTERN SOMALIA
Authors: CANUTI PAOLO , FAZZUOLI MILVIO , FICCARELLI GIOVANNI , VENTURI FEDERICO
Published: November 2023

The sequence exposed at Waaney (South—western Somalia) consists, from bottom to top, of the following horizons: A) Blackish marly limestones, thickness 20 m; B) Grey and greenish marls and shales, thickness 10 m; C) Vacuolar yellowish—grey limestone, thickness 6 m; D) and F) Bioclastic, dark grey limestones in beds up to 1 m thick, thickness 54 m; E) and G) Yellowish—brown or Pink limestones with nodular or brecciated structure, with two levels rich in Ammonites, thickness over 45 m. Sedimentological features give evidences that the environment evolved from restricted lagoon with fine terrigenous supply and probable evaporitic episodes to shallow sea with varying energy conditions and eventually to deeper but partially restricted sea with oligotypic fauna. Fossils collected in the E) and G) levels include about 40 specimens of Ammonites of size varying from 6 to- 15 cm, fossilized in a yellow—grey limestone. The Ammonites of the E) level may be referred to the genus Protogrammoceras (?) and to the species Protogrammoceras madagascariense; the Ammonites of the G) level to the Protogrammoceras madagascariense and to the genus Hildaites. The Ammonite association of. the E) level seems to indicate a Lowermost Toarcian age; the association of the G) level an Early Toarcian age, on the ground of biostntigraphic investigations in the Ethiopian—Indo—Malagasy region and in areas outside this Province.

Authors: FANTONI ROBERTO , LOVATI IVANO , ROSSI PIETRO MARIO
Published: November 2023

Facies succession of the Oligocene terrigenous sequences from a seccar of Piedmont Tertiary Basin (between Ovada and Cassinelle, Alessandria) are here described and their significance discussed. The palaeogeographic evolution of the area results to be controlled by a synsedimentary tectonics. In the Early Oligocene, a generalised vertical mobility affected the region which, as a conse­quence, was splitted in some blocks with a differential tectonic behaviour by tensive lineaments; that is testified by a widesprcad continental facies characteristic of a high energy environment (lower pare of "Formazione di Molare"). Successively, ali the area subsided, and the sea transgressed over it (upper part of "Formazione di Molare"). During the Late Oligocene subsidence acted differentially along synse­dimentary faults and the deeper portions are individuated; which became location of relatively deep marine deposition ("Marne di Rigoroso"). The intense tectonic activity was responsible for the deposition of large conglomeratic and arenaceous bodies interbedded within the hemipelagic sequences (in the areas with precocious and intense drowning).

Published: November 2023

It is long time that the subject of distressed and decayed areas has attracted the attention of the public organizations and experts of urbanism and architecture in different countries. Rehabilitation, renovation and restoration are different forms of intervention in the distressed fabric each of which has been implemented with different approaches in different countries worldwide. The applied approaches (including re-adjustment of the land for implementing urban development plans, compulsory acquisition, voluntarily methods such as the persuasive aggregations and density) have their own problems. In many cases, these problems have led to stopping the projects in their initial phase. This applied research is based on the qualitative and quantitative approaches and uses a comprehensive perspective relying on the available solutions and history of research using descriptive-analytical method and secondary data. In analyzing the data and case study, we use library-field methods based on the questionnaire and face-to-face interviews. Statistical population of the research includes the residents of a part of the distressed area in 1st municipal district of Qom city. This article attempts to explain the current proposed approaches (organization, protection, and constructive and fundamental interventions) studies the actions that have been done in relation to the distressed areas of the mentioned region in Qom city. Finally we will state the actions needed in each approach considering different dimensions of the distressed area. The findings of the research show that any feasible solution has to pay enough attention to the financial aspects, mental motivations of the residents, and the participation of the people and government.
A Comparative Study of the Change of the Economic Model of Poland after 1989 and Chinas Reform and Opening up
Authors: Chen Jerry Haotian , Song Mingjun , Tang Guangqian , Zhu Hongzhe
Published: November 2023

The former socialist countries of the Cold War have undergone a transition from planned economies to market economies in the context of economic globalization. This is a significant phenomenon that deserves scholarly attention. The paper focuses on Poland and China as two examples of different reform models, paths, and ideologies. A comparative analysis based on factual data is conducted to explore their transition process and outcomes. The results show that the path of transition each country has chosen has both similarities and differences. Both countries have faced various difficulties and opportunities in their reforms, and have adopted different policy measures to improve their domestic development. The conclusion suggests that there is no single optimal model for economic transition, but rather a diversity of choices and trade-offs that depend on the historical, cultural, and political factors of each country. In conclusion, Poland and China are two examples of countries that have undergone significant economic transitions in the past four decades. They have similarities and differences in their economic structure before the transition, their process of the transition, their growth in the past four decades, and their political and systematic factors in the transition. Their experiences provide valuable lessons for other countries that seek to achieve economic development.

Authors: Ma Tongtong
Published: November 2023

The emergence of ChatGPT has triggered domestic and international discussions on the future of artificial intelligence and human beings, and the connection between ChatGPT and education has received widespread attention. Among them, the impact of ChatGPT on college students independent learning has become one of the hot spots of research. Firstly, ChatGPTs personalized learning support leverages students characteristics and needs to provide personalized educational services. ChatGPT recommends resources based on personalization and also has a wide range of learning materials and difficulty levels to give students a sense of resourcefulness. The development of an awareness of independent learning also enables students to gradually build up their awareness and ability to learn independently. Secondly, there are still many limitations for university students in using ChatGPT for self-directed learning, as they have to deal with changes in the quality of knowledge, reduced social interaction and dependency issues. Thirdly, better helping college students use ChatGPT to improve their independent learning skills requires stronger educational leadership, combined with interpersonal relationships and enhanced privacy protection. In addition, college students should use it as an aid to maintain critical thinking and not rely on the tool itself. Comprehensive knowledge is gained by utilizing multiple resources. Developers should continuously improve the system to increase accuracy and knowledge breadth to meet students needs. In conclusion, this study has a positive impact on the reform and development of the educational field and makes a useful contribution to the cultivation of college students with independent learning abilities.

Examining Fertility Intentions in China and Spain: An Application of the Communication Theory of Planned Behavior
Authors: Cao Bingjie , Wei Nan , Zhang Xinfang
Published: November 2023

In the current context of worldwide low fertility rate, the issue of female fertility received great attention. Since the attitudes towards giving the birth could have a heavy influence on the fertility behavior or behavioral intention, meanwhile, the attitudes are often affected by womens self- cognition and social norms, so it is important to search for the crucial factors of female fertility issues. Consistent with above conditions and research goal, this study applies the Theory of Planned Behavior and also chooses some parts of the Cognitive Mediation Model as the academic resource of potential factors which originated from the widespread use of social media. By the means of proposal sampling, the current research have conducted an online survey by spreading the questionnaire to search for the correlations between the attitudes, social norms, perceived behavioral control with fertility intentions respectively. The objectives are the females (ages from 18-60 years old, who can be independent and has fertility ability or go over peoples identity) in China and Spain. The two countries have different social context and fertility policies, but the results illustrate that womens fertility intentions are both low. Moreover, females seem the subjective norms like the stress pushed by the intimate person. And they judge social media is more of a media platform for people to learn about fertility information and related policies. They actually think that having children is not beneficial but unpleasant. Overall, the impact of social media on fertility intention less powerful than polices (included in social norms) and more less powerful than womens feeling towards the life if having children (included in attitudes). Through the research process and by comparing the situation of China and Spain, this study can tell the importance of reforming birth and family policies, and indicate the general direction for it.

The Impact of AI-Driven Narrative Generation, Exemplified by ChatGPT, on the Preservation of Human Creative Originality and Uniqueness
Authors: Lai Yuehua
Published: November 2023

The appearance of Artificial Intelligence (AI) systems have become more adept at generating original texts, becoming the realm of storytelling, as exemplified by ChatGPT and similar language models. This has sparked a growing debate about its impact on the originality and uniqueness of human creativity and thinking. Bringing up the question of whether AI-driven narrative generation is a benefit or a detriment to humanity, this paper delves into the evolution of AI storytelling, examines the capabilities and limitations of large language models like ChatGPT, even under their impressive fluency, and further explores the implications for human creativity and intellectual diversity. While AI storytelling tools have undoubtedly revolutionised content generation, this paper argues that they do not inherently erode human originality and uniqueness and more so cannot authentically replicate the distinctiveness of human thinking. Instead, with conscientious implementation, AI writing technologies may serve as powerful complementary tools that can enhance human creativity, expand the diversity of voices and perspectives, provide more widespread access to the means of storytelling and personal expression, and optimise our human literary activities in a manner that elevates rather than erodes the uniqueness of human literary work when used thoughtfully and ethically.
Approaches to Autonomous Driving Vehicle Traffic Accidents Liability in China
Authors: Wang Bo
Published: November 2023

Autonomous driving technology, as another major revolution in the field of transportation technology, brings new challenges to the provisions of the current legal system. Whether the autonomous vehicle can become the subject responsible for traffic accidents, whether the manufacturer of autonomous vehicle should bear the responsibility, and how to identify the drivers responsibility have become difficult problems in the process of responsibility identification. To solve the above issues, this paper conducts a comparative analysis of US and UK autonomous vehicle regulations, incorporating Chinas existing traffic laws, to propose a classification standard for autonomous vehicle traffic accident liability in the Chinese context. This research proposed framework hinges on two principles. Firstly, it differentiates between driving assistance and full autonomous driving, applying existing traffic accident tort liability rules during driving assistance, with manufacturer liability for technology failures. In contrast, autonomous driving warrants manufacturer product liability. Secondly, framework distinguishes between human and autonomous driving, determining liability based on the vehicles operating mode at the time of an accident. Users are liable if they didnt engage autonomous mode or intervened, while accidents in full autonomous mode invoke manufacturer product liability. Recognizing flaws in the product liability system, such as delayed compensation and high litigation costs, we propose introducing a liability insurance system. This multifaceted approach safeguards victims and mitigates risks in the evolving autonomous driving landscape.
A Study of the Faith in the Lotus Sutra in Biography of Bhikshunis
Authors: Zhou Jie
Published: November 2023

The Lotus Sutra is a highly significant Mahayana Buddhist scripture that has been compiled and established since the first century. Then it spread to China with the propagation of Buddhism and underwent numerous translations by eminent monks. Particularly, the translation of Kumarajiva had solidified the Lotus Sutras prominent position among Buddhist scriptures. During the Eastern Jin and Northern&Southern Dynasties, the Lotus Sutra attained widespread attention and reverence. It was extensively chanted and adhered in the monastic community and secular society. Until Northern&Southern Dynasties, the number of eminent monks who studied and chanted the Lotus Sutra surged dramatically. And there were as many as 44 monks closely associated with the Lotus Sutra during the early Northern&Southern Dynasties in the Biography of Eminent Monks written by Huijiao. The practice of the Lotus Sutra was also prevalent among Bhikshunis at that time, which was clearly revealed in the Biography of Bhikshunis. The biography shows that the Bhikshunis during Six Dynasties period actively put into practice the teachings in the Lotus Sutra, such as chanting and offering of their bodies as a form of devotion. This paper, based on the Biography of Bhikshunis, investigates the relationship between Bhikshunis and the Lotus Sutra during the Six Dynasties period.
Empirical Research on Article 1088 of the Civil Code: The Divorce Domestic Labor Compensation System
Authors: Zhang Xinyu
Published: November 2023

With the development of society and the increasing average educational level of women, the division of labor within families and society should be redefined. However, due to the influence of traditional Chinese culture and long-standing customs, the majority of people still adhere to the idea of men being breadwinners and women being responsible for domestic duties.This contradiction in societal perceptions results in various social issues, such as a rise in womens reluctance to marry, an increase in divorce rates, and a decline in birth rates. Among these issues, domestic labor plays a significant role in family dynamics. In response to this, Article 1088 of the Chinese Civil Code has been updated to elevate the importance of domestic labor in society, particularly in the context of divorce and the compensation system associated with it. However, through an analysis of 228 legal judgments, the author believes that there are certain problems with the formulation of Article 1088, which prevent it from achieving its legislative intent, i.e., providing protection and benefits for those burdened with significant domestic labor responsibilities. The author suggests that the domestic labor compensation system and its related regulations still require further improvement. Drawing comparisons with similar systems in other countries, the author puts forward recommendations for the enhancement of Article 1088.

Are People in Chinese Rural Areas Conscious of the Law, and What Are the Impacts?
Authors: Shi Zhuoran
Published: November 2023

Contemporary society benefits from having a strong sense of the law because it makes it easier for people to live better in a society where the law is upheld. Without effective law enforcement, society may descend into anarchy, making it impossible to protect the rights and safety of its citizens. Yet many Chinese residents in rural regions do not have a basic understanding of the law. The first is that certain rural areas are economically underdeveloped due to their isolation and limited accessibility. As a result, it contributed to a certain extent to the clan system in rural regions, and a lack of knowledge led to some peoples dismissal of the law. The absence of courts is the final factor for poor infrastructure. It has been suggested that education be improved and more advertising in rural regions to increase legal publicity. Additionally, the government may arrange for additional volunteers to take part in legal assistance initiatives in remote regions, which would help to address the issue of a lack of attorneys. The government might potentially make improvements to an itinerant program that has been successful in some rural parts of China. However, these options have certain drawbacks, which will be discussed later.
