description: Geleitwort von Timmo Krüger In der Arbeit von Veronika Steinbacher werden vermeintlich abseitige Phänomene ins Zentrum der Aufmerksamkeit gerückt: "Es geht um Spielen im öentlichen Raum, um schaukeln, skaten, Murmeln spielen, im Brunnen plantschen." Sie greift auf grundlagentheoretische Überlegungen zur Bedeutung des Spielens im menschlichen Miteinander zurück und befragt Erwachsene nach ihren Spielerfahrungen. Als zentralen Kern arbeitet sie das Unvorhersehbare, Unkontrollierbare des Spielens heraus. Über den Verlauf und den Ausgang eines Spiels kann nicht verfügt werden – nur mit einer Haltung der Offenheit kann gespielt werden. Veronika Steinbacher erfasst in ihrer Analyse der Interviews die konkreten alltäglichen Erfahrungen des Spielens und untersucht, inwiefern sich darin Möglichkeiten für Resonanzerfahrungen bieten. Hartmut Rosas Resonanztheorie ist eine Gesellschaftstheorie, deren Argumentation nicht auf akribischen, empirischen Studien basiert. Stattdessen erzeugt Rosa Plausibilität durch anekdotische Referenzen auf Kunst, Pop- und Alltagskultur, die intuitiv einleuchten, weil sie nahe an der Alltagserfahrung vieler Leser*innen sind. Die empirische Erforschung von Resonanzerfahrungen und -beziehungen steckt also erst in den Kinderschuhen. Dabei ist es alles andere als trivial, die Konzepte der Resonanztheorie für empirische Forschung zu operationalisieren. Rosa selbst schreibt, dass sich seine resonanztheoretische These „nur dann seriös und mit den Mitteln der zeitgenössischen Soziologie erhärten [lässt], wenn es uns gelingt, über das gelingende Leben mehr zu sagen, als dass es sich gut anfühlt“ (Rosa 2016: 19; Hervorhebungen im Original). Veronika Steinbacher gelingt es auf sehr beeindruckende Weise, Resonanzerfahrungen zum Gegenstand ihrer methodisch sauberen empirischen Forschung zu machen, ohne den analytischen Wert der dabei angewendeten theoretischen Konzepte zu schmälern – das heißt, ohne es bei der Aussage zu belassen, dass sich Spielen gut anfühlt. Sie argumentiert sehr dierenziert, inwiefern Spielen ein Puzzlestein sein kann, um repulsive Beziehungen zur Welt abzubauen und die eigene Resonanzsensibilität zu erhöhen. Gleichzeitig wird deutlich, dass mit Spielen allein der kollektive Resonanzmangel selbstverständlich nicht behoben werden kann. Dazu wäre eine Abkehr vom Streben nach permanenter „Entwicklung“ (verstanden als Wirtschaftswachstum und materielle Wohlfahrtssteigerung) notwendig. Resonanz könnte als Fluchtpunkt für Transformationsbestrebungen in diese Richtung fungieren. Und auch wenn es kein einfaches Rezept für Resonanz gibt – Antwortbeziehungen lassen sich nicht erzwingen – sollten wir stetig darauf hinzuwirken, die Möglichkeitsbedingungen von Resonanzbeziehungen zu verbessern, beim Spielen und ganz grundsätzlich. Denn: „Ein endliches Spiel spielt man, um zu gewinnen, ein unendliches, um weiterzuspielen". (Carse 1987: 9)

description: Community residents conceive of their health and wellness priorities and concerns differently based on cultural and socioeconomic characteristics. As public libraries adopt health literacy programs to facilitate better access to information, they also need to align their programs and services to reflect the aspirations and concerns of the more marginalized members of their communities. This article describes how a team of Rutgers University librarians, scholars, and students worked with public librarians in three adjacent communities to investigate underlying conditions that shape how different populations approach health and wellness. Over several years, the research team listened to local citizens talk about their aspirations and concerns. Using tools developed by the Harwood Institute for Public Innovation with the American Library Association and the Charles F. Kettering Foundation, the team set a goal to understand how libraries might strengthen their relationships and engagement with diverse communities concerning health and wellness. Their findings revealed that upper-middle-class residents in one town were more likely to use the local library to stay informed about health literacy, relying on the strength of “weak ties,” while tightly bonded African American residents in a bordering town, along with Latino immigrants in a third neighboring community, depended more on strong personal ties to inform their health and wellness decisions. They concluded that librarians will need to build trust and engage more deeply with these marginalized populations if they are to bolster the health and wellness of these members of their communities.

description: ORCID stands for Open Researcher and Contributor ID. It is an open, community driven non-profit organization that provides a unique and persistent digital identifier known as ORCID iD that can be used to distinguish an individual researcher from others.1 Rutgers, The State University of New Jersey adopted a university-wide implementation of ORCID in October 2017. Founded in 1766, Rutgers University is a large public research university with $750.8 million of research grants and sponsored programs, and a history of over 250 years. The university is located in three cities which are New Brunswick, Newark, and Camden. As one of the most ethnically diverse universities in the nation, Rutgers has over 71,000 students from 50 states and over 125 countries. It has 8,700 faculty, nearly 15,000 staff, and over 1,200 international scholars from more than 80 countries. By implementing ORCID@Rutgers, the university helps build an integrated research environment and joins the ORCID research community. In the process of planning, implementing, and promoting ORCID, Rutgers librarians played an important role in collaboration with other stakeholders. This article showcases the librarians' experience and role in this initiative.

Architectural, Artistic, and Interior Design Characteristics of Albanian Towers in the Dukagjini Plain: A Structural, Cultural, and Aesthetic Analysis
Creators: name: Muharremi, Ilir Hivzi
Publisher: name: AIS - Architecture Image Studies
Year: 2025

description: This study offers a comprehensive examination of the architectural, artistic, and interior design characteristics of Albanian towers in Kosovo, with particular focus on those located in the Dukagjini Plain. Through an interdisciplinary approach that incorporates fieldwork, historical documentation, and visual analysis, the research explores how these fortified residential structures fulfill both utilitarian and symbolic functions. Key aspects such as structural composition, construction materials, ornamental features, spatial organization, and decorative motifs are analyzed in relation to their historical, cultural, and aesthetic significance. The findings reveal a unique synthesis between Albanian vernacular craftsmanship and Ottoman stylistic influences, positioning the towers as expressions of identity, social status, and artistic heritage. Special attention is given to interior elements such as the men's guest room (oda e burrave), wooden ceilings, carved doors, symbolic carpets, and semi-circular arches—each functioning not only as architectural components but also as carriers of philosophical meaning and cultural continuity. Ultimately, the towers are presented as architectural embodiments of Albanian memory, where form, material, and symbolism converge into a distinct narrative of heritage.

description: A method is presented for solving elastodynamic problems in radially inhomogeneous elastic materials with spherical anisotropy, i.e. materials such that cijkl = cijkl(r) in a spherical coordinate system. The time harmonic displacement field u is expanded in a separation of variables form with dependence on described by vector spherical harmonics with r-dependent amplitudes. It is proved that such separation of variables solution is generally possible only if the spherical anisotropy is restricted to transverse isotropy with the principal axis in the radial direction, in which case the amplitudes are determined by a first-order ordinary differential system. Restricted forms of the displacement field, such as u admit this type of separation of variables solutions for certain lower material symmetries. These results extend the Stroh formalism of elastodynamics in rectangular and cylindrical systems to spherical coordinates.

description: The urbanized built environment is expanding rapidly in developing nations, and there is an urgent need to implement green building principles to make design and construction methods there more sustainable. Cities have seen an increase in built-up areas, and new construction projects that use the green building idea can undoubtedly lessen the environmental impact of buildings. However, the region surrounding urban settlements was likely occupied prior to the second millennium BC, and there is proof that people have lived there continuously from at least the sixth century B.C. Therefore, in addition to new construction, there is a significant chance that existing structures could have a negative environmental impact if their maintenance and operation practices are not examined. Government regulations pertaining to energy and water use as well as CO2 emissions will need to include mandatory limitations. The performance of existing buildings can be enhanced by a number of important sustainability improvements, in addition to energy and water efficiency, such as structural evaluation, resource use, disaster resilience, waste reduction through recycling programs, sustainable procurement and purchasing practices, and continuing operations and maintenance practices. Employee comfort and indoor environmental quality are two "intangible" benefits of green buildings that are difficult to measure but just as crucial to consider as the tangible ones. "Indoor Environmental Quality (IEQ)" includes things like views, air quality, natural lighting, thermal and physical comfort, and the ability to manage one's surroundings, all of which have beneficial psychological and physical benefits and help make residents happier and healthier.

description: Making an item from completely new raw materials has a significant negative impact on the environment. This can be significantly reduced by recycling or reusing items for purposes other than those for which they were designed. This logic also applies to buildings, where the structure may be retained even if the user is modified. Modifying existing structures—those that were once used for one purpose but are now employed for another—while preserving their original historic elements is known as adaptive reuse. It changes and revitalizes the historic fabric of the city. A building's adaptive reuse should preserve the building's and its surroundings' historical relevance while having as little of an adverse effect as possible on the environment. Adaptive reuse explores the alternatives between destruction and recreation by providing a location with a new cycle rather than locking it down in a particular moment. Adaptive reuse maintains its lengthy history by tackling the issue of land scarcity and adding a new layer without undermining the foundations of earlier levels. Countries tend to protect their historic monuments that symbolize their legacy in order to help communities keep their diverse environmental personality and heritage because of the world's rapid growth and development. The adaptive reuse technique is used for this purpose, and the phrases "adaptive reuse" and "renovation, refurbishment, and rehabilitation" are occasionally used interchangeably. This study intends to distinguish each word in relation to a framework that has been investigated in the literature while adaptively utilizing historic structures and determine the potential value that can be achieved by considering the three sustainability pillars.

Nonlinear shear wave interaction at a frictional interface: Energy dissipation and generation of harmonics

description: Analytical and numerical modelling of the nonlinear interaction of shear wave with a frictional interface is presented. The system studied is composed of two homogeneous and isotropic elastic solids, brought into frictional contact by remote normal compression. A shear wave, either time harmonic or a narrow band pulse, is incident normal to the interface and propagates through the contact. Two friction laws are considered and their influence on interface behavior is investigated : Coulomb's law with a constant friction coefficient and a slip-weakening friction law which involves static and dynamic friction coefficients. The relationship between the nonlinear harmonics and the dissipated energy, and their dependence on the contact dynamics (friction law, sliding and tangential stress) and on the normal contact stress are examined in detail. The analytical and numerical results indicate universal type laws for the amplitude of the higher harmonics and for the dissipated energy, properly non-dimensionalized in terms of the pre-stress, the friction coefficient and the incident amplitude. The results suggest that measurements of higher harmonics can be used to quantify friction and dissipation effects of a sliding interface.

description: Pavel Shlossberg examines traditional Mexican mask making as a form of media widely perceived to communicate about indigenous identity. The study complements research on cultural citizenship exploring the flow of indigenous images, symbols, and artifacts within a variety of media and popular culture venues (Brady, 2009, 2011; Ginsburg, Abu-Lughod, & Larkin, 2002; Marchi, 2009). Interrogating theoretical understandings of identity and cultural citizenship through the lens of Mexican masks and festivals, the author illustrates how dominant institutions of cultural production mediate Mexico's arte popular. The term arte popular (" art of the people ") is used throughout Latin America to refer to handicrafts and folk art considered to be authentic embodiments of a country's cultural traditions. This art is typically created by economically impoverished indigenous peoples and rural mestizos (individuals of mixed indigenous and nonindigenous ancestry). A romanticized nostalgia for " the primitive " has accompanied the secularization, standardization, and industrialization of modern life, fueling a large and growing market for " traditional " masks, pottery, and crafts originally produced in relatively small quantities for personal consumption and daily use by Mexico's indigenous inhabitants (Barbash, 1993; Esser, 1988; Chibnik, 2003). Shlossberg vividly illustrates that while arte popular is extolled and promoted by Mexico's government, tourism industry, elite art institutions, and mass media, the rural indigenous and mestizo people who create this art continue to be nearly as disenfranchised today as they were 500 years ago. Based on ethnographic work conducted over a two-year period with mask makers, collectors, museum curators, art book editors, and others, Shlossberg places Mexico's mask makers within the larger context of their relationship to the nation–state, examining the symbolic and material pressures that force rural artisans to enact self-racializing stereotypes and performances of stigmatized indigenous identities. These include notions of indigenous people as childlike, humble, culturally pure, and geographically isolated beings who operate outside of the polluting influences of modernity and capitalism. Weaving together cultural theory and ethnographic data, the author reveals how concepts of indigenous authenticity are deeply shaped by racist and classist assumptions held by nonindigenous elites, and how rural practices of mask making are influenced by tourism, commerce, international trade, art catalog publishers, and museum curators.

description: Background The shortage of health care providers (HCPs) and inequity in their distribution along with the lack of sufficient and equal professional development opportunities in low-income countries contribute to the high mortality and morbidity of women and newborns. Strengthening skills and building the capacity of all HCPs involved in Maternal and Newborn Health (MNH) is essential to ensuring that mothers and newborns receive the required care in the period around birth. The Training, Support, and Access Model (TSAM) project identified onsite mentorship at primary care Health Centers (HCs) as an approach that could help reduce mortality and morbidity through capacity building of HCPs in Rwanda. This paper presents the results and lessons learnt through the design and implementation of a mentorship model and highlights some implications for future research. Methods The design phase started with an assessment of the status of training in HCs to inform the selection of Hospital-Based Mentors (HBMs). These HBMs took different courses to become mentors. A clear process was established for engaging all stakeholders and to ensure ownership of the model. Then the HBMs conducted monthly visits to all 68 TSAM assigned HCs for 18 months and were extended later in 43 HCs of South. Upon completion of 6 visits, mentees were requested to assist their peers who are not participating in the mentoring programme through a process of peer mentoring to ensure sustainability after the project ends. Results The onsite mentorship in HCs by the HBMs led to equal training of HCPs across all HCs regardless of the location of the HC. Research on this mentorship showed that the training improved the knowledge and self-efficacy of HCPs in managing postpartum haemorrhage (PPH) and newborn resuscitation. The lessons learned include that well trained midwives can conduct successful mentorships at lower levels in the healthcare system. The key challenge was the inconsistency of mentees due to a shortage of HCPs at the HC level. Conclusions The initiation of onsite mentorship in HCs by HBMs with the support of the district health leaders resulted in consistent and equal mentoring at all HCs including those located in remote areas.

description: Architecture is the embodiment of an ongoing discourse among socio-cultural, techno-legal commentaries, radical discovery, technological innovations, political processes, and artistic expressions; per say. It addresses the problems of enclosure, connectivity, permanence, usage, organization, aesthetics, and structure. Further, digital technologies, emergence of regulatory authorities, response to climate change and its effects, growing energy and water needs cannot be ignored. Dwindling economy, dropping pay packages, loss of jobs etc are the concerns that shape the future of investments in architecture. In the light of such crucial conditions, architects need to be accountable; not only to clients, but to the society and governments at large. Performing Aesthetics thus emerge as the only panacea for this scenario that is not bright, but gloomy. While mass consumerism, standardization, and mass production were the buzzwords of the second industrial revolution, where performance and efficiency are crucial, the first industrial age focused on the need for machinery and mechanization in both production and construction. Furthermore, post-modernism emerged as a result of mass production monotony. Architecture is preparing for mass consumption in the future, with 3-D printing allowing for mass customization and online building transfers in the form of electronic data. However, there are very few academic conversations that incorporate explanatory theory and aesthetic education. The development of performing aesthetics that stresses the improved "worth and value" for money—the primary focus of the current situation worldwide—requires the identification of a suitable definition as well as the contributing elements and characteristics. The goal of this study is to identify a novel strategy for creating "Architecture 2.0 which generates aesthetically enriched productions" for the future of technology and building design.

description: Theoretically speaking, heavy tax rates on gambling should dampen growth of the casino revenues. Indeed, a cursory glance at data across U.S. states suggests that more jobs and income are generated directly by the gaming industry when lower tax rates are applied. Using a detailed computable general equilibrium model, we evaluate the effects of a proposed machine-based casino on New Jersey's economy as well as on the state's existing set of casino resorts in Atlantic City. We find few winners other than the state's tax coffers.

description: Since the 1970s, Brazil has carried out the most successful world program of commercial biomass for use and production of energy by stimulating its sugarcane industry and promoting the large-scale production of ethanol nationwide in response to the first oil shock. Today, the technologies behind ethanol production are well established. Brazil is the world's largest sugarcane supplier, producing its ethanol at a competitive price. If other sugarcane producing countries decided to join Brazil's move toward the production of this biofuel, what impacts might there be for each country's economy and employment? This is what we investigate in this paper. Prime candidates for ethanol production include Australia, China, Colombia, India, Indonesia, Mexico, Pakistan, the Philippines, Thailand, and the United States of America. We evaluated the potential socioeconomic impacts of developing this promising industry by using an input–output approach. More specifically, we adapted the Brazilian method of producing ethanol to these countries' distinct economies. We augmented the input–output table of each country, inserting a new ethanol industry based on the Brazilian ethanol production model. We also augmented their new ethanol industry's sales following a hypothetical hydrous and anhydrous ethanol consumption scenario. Thereafter, we reconcile the national accounts, concluding our analysis by quantifying and comparing the different net effects of this new industry for each of the assessed countries for the year of 2009. We demonstrate which industries would be expected to be positively or negatively impacted by this substitution in each country; and find that not all of the countries we assessed would experience positive socioeconomic results from emulating Brazil's production of ethanol.

description: A version of time-bounded Kolmogorov complexity, denoted KT, has received attention in the past several years, due to its close connection to circuit complexity and to the Minimum Circuit Size Problem MCSP. Essentially all results about the complexity of MCSP hold also for MKTP (the problem of computing the KT complexity of a string). Both MKTP and MCSP are hard for SZK (Statistical Zero Knowledge) under BPP-Turing reductions; neither is known to be NP-complete.
description: Recently, some hardness results for MKTP were proved that are not (yet) known to hold for MCSP. In particular, MKTP is hard for DET (a subclass of P) under nonuniform NC^0 m-reductions. In this paper, we improve this, to show that MKTP is hard for the (apparently larger) class NISZK_L under not only NC^0 m-reductions but even under projections. Also MKTP is hard for NISZK under P/poly m-reductions. Here, NISZK is the class of problems with non-interactive zero-knowledge proofs, and NISZK_L is the non-interactive version of the class SZK_L that was studied by Dvir et al.
description: As an application, we provide several improved worst-case to average-case reductions to problems in NP, and we obtain a new lower bound on MKTP (which is currently not known to hold for MCSP).

description: We quantified the location and extent of damage from Hurricane Sandy in habitats within the complex coastal-urban region of Jamaica Bay, New York and calculated the values of ecosystem services (ESV) lost. Results were compared with those from Hurricane Katrina. We found that moderate flooding and sand deposition were the most prevalent types of damage, and they caused the most degradation to low salt marsh habitat. Compared with Hurricane Katrina, damage from Hurricane Sandy to built and natural capital was general lower for almost all categories except beach erosion. This was especially damaging due to the high levels of disturbance prevention ecosystem services beaches and dunes provide. Our impact index revealed that the majority of damage was minimal in severity (60%) and would likely be reversed within five years (62%), with a total possible loss of up to US$ 6.5 million for Jamaica Bay, NY. We demonstrated the use our results to identify vulnerable areas for protection and restoration, and to calculate gains in ESVs in each scenario. By quantifying the location, extent and type of damage from Hurricane Sandy and the ESVs lost, we can provide another dimension to protection and restoration efforts in this sensitive coastal-urban region.

description: We investigate the effect that an upstream cylinder has on the effective inertial collision efficiency of a downstream cylinder. We consider an initially uniform distribution of particles moving past a cylindrical fiber in a potential crossflow and numerically calculate the resulting particle distribution far downstream of the fiber using finite differences. We then investigate the effect that the downstream distribution of particles has on the effective inertial collision efficiency of a downstream test cylinder oriented parallel to the first. We show that the effective collision efficiency of the test cylinder depends on its relative offset in the transverse direction (normal to the flow) with respect to the upstream cylinder. For relatively small offsets there is complete shielding, and no particles collide with the test cylinder. As the offset increases, a growing effective collision efficiency is observed leading to a significant enhancement relative to the collision efficiency of an isolated cylinder for intermediate offsets and Stokes numbers close to unity. Importantly, we observe relative gains in effective collision efficiency above 100% for a range of Stokes numbers and offset values. For larger offsets and Stokes numbers, the effect of the upstream cylinder on the effective collision efficiency of the test cylinder decreases and eventually becomes negligible. Detailed results are provided for Stokes drag acting on the particles and we also show that a nonlinear drag has a negligible effect on the observed trends for the conditions relevant to air filtration systems. These results suggest that the arrangement of fibers has a substantial effect on inertial particle impaction even when neighboring fibers do not alter the flow field around each individual collector. Moreover, periodic arrangements with specific orientations with respect of the flow could lead to a significant enhancement of the inertial collision of particles on an array of collectors, thus contributing towards a better filtration performance.

description: Objectives: Although classical teaching is that morbidly adherent placentas are due to absence of decidua, recent thinking suggests there may be a major role for abnormalities of trophoblast. Methods: This report presents representative cases of placenta accreta and increta collected over 30 years; analyzed with sonographic-pathologic correlation; with adjunctive trichrome , actin and keratin stains. Results: The sonographic finding of an abnormal retroplacental zone differed between accreta and increta. The site of morbid adherence was also different. Accreta was adherent to smooth muscle of large dilated vessels in the basal plate; with irregular destruction of vascular smooth muscle; endovascular trophoblast on keratin stain, and foci of intravascular villi. Increta was adherent to myometrium, while the fetal membranes could also be morbidly adherent. In increta, keratin stains showed nonvillous trophoblast (NVT) as the invading front, with villous trophoblast following behind. In accreta, there was a retroplacental spongy zone composed of dilated vessels and dilated glands. In increta there was a retroplacental zone of shriveled, inflamed, edematous myometrium, with foci of intravascular villi. In both accreta and increta, the sonographic finding of intraplacental blood lakes appeared to be due to supply from larger deeper vessels than seen in normal implantation, transformed by endovascular NVT. Conclusions: True accreta primarily reflects excessive action of endovascular NVT while increta also reflects excessive action of interstitial NVT. We speculate that there may be a role for protease inhibitor deficiency abnormalities.

description: Parents are integral in the treatment of pediatric eating disorders. The current study was conducted to further understand the barriers and facilitators that parents experience in accessing specialized, tertiary level eating disorder treatment for children and adolescents. The goals of the study were to understand the processes leading to diagnosis and treatment, perceived barriers and facilitators to accessing care, and parents’ experiences over the course of their child’s eating disorder treatment. Methods: Ten parents whose children were admitted to a Canadian tertiary level specialized pediatric eating disorders program took part in an exit interview upon their child’s completion of treatment in the program. Indepth semi-structured interviews were combined with a visual timeline. Interpretive induction was performed to generate high-level concepts that emerged from the interviews. Results: Five high-level concepts were identified: (1) delays in identifying eating disorder symptoms, (2) challenges in accessing eating disorder services, (3) the right treatment at the right time, (4) emotional impact on parents, and (5) parental expertise and involvement. Conclusions: Several barriers were identified by parents that interfered with treatment, including system-related challenges when accessing specialized eating disorder treatment, concerns about a lack of appropriate mental health support for their child, and difficulties with transitioning between community and tertiary level care. Negative emotions, including guilt and self-blame, were common early in the treatment journey. Themes of parental involvement throughout treatment, and parents taking charge of their child’s recovery, emerged across interviews. The results of this study suggest the importance of early identification of eating disorder symptoms, facilitating smoother transitions between levels of care (e.g., community services and hospital-based eating disorder care), and improving clinical decision-making to ensure children and adolescents with eating disorders receive the most appropriate treatment based on their clinical presentation.

description: Pain is a painful sensory and emotional experience associated with actual or potential tissue damage. Most patients report feeling discomfort, and their concern might be interpreted as a warning sign. An experience of the senses that produces anxiety and apprehension Distress may present itself in a variety of ways. It serves as a caution against physical injury, which is crucial for avoiding injuries and, ultimately, staying alive.Pain is the nervous system's warning signal when something is wrong. It's an uncomfortable feeling, like a pinprick, tingle, sting, burn, or ache. It's possible that the level of discomfort varies. It might be random, or it could be persistent. Pain is the body's way of telling us that something is wrong with our tissues, such as an injury or a potential danger. The cause of this damage might be internal or external to the nervous system; it could be physical or chemical; and it could be obvious or subtle. Nonetheless, pain's basic role as the body's warning system stays unaltered regardless of the form it takes. A heightened sensitivity to pressure all over the body is a frequent symptom of the pain.

description: Social mobility plays an important role in stabilizing the political order. This paper leverages China’s hukou (household registration) reforms to examine the effects of state-engineered social mobility on individuals’ trust in the government. Using China General Social Survey (CGSS) data for 2010 and entropy balancing for causal effects, this paper provides empirical evidence for the attitudinal effects of social mobility at the individual level. It finds that first, individuals with the rural-to-urban hukou change are more likely to experience upward mobility, while individuals with the nonlocal-to-local hukou change are more pessimistic about their prospects of upward mobility; second, the rural-to-urban hukou change increases beneficiaries’ trust in the central government, while the nonlocal-to-local hukou change increases beneficiaries’ trust in the local government. The Chinese authoritarian regime’s co-optation tactic of engineering upward social mobility via the hukou reforms contributes to its performance-based political legitimacy as it effectively bolsters individuals’ trust in government.

description: Representation of human actions as a sequence of human body movements or action attributes enables the development of models for human activity recognition and summarization. We present an extension of the low-rank representation (LRR) model, termed the clustering-aware structure-constrained low-rank representation (CS-LRR) model, for unsupervised learning of human action attributes from video data. Our model is based on the union-of-subspaces (UoS) framework, and integrates spectral clustering into the LRR optimization problem for better subspace clustering results. We lay out an efficient linear alternating direction method to solve the CS-LRR optimization problem. We also introduce a hierarchical subspace clustering approach, termed hierarchical CS-LRR, to learn the attributes without the need for a priori specification of their number. By visualizing and labeling these action attributes, the hierarchical model can be used to semantically summarize long video sequences of human actions at multiple resolutions. A human action or activity can also be uniquely represented as a sequence of transitions from one action attribute to another, which can then be used for human action recognition. We demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed model for semantic summarization and action recognition through comprehensive experiments on five real-world human action datasets.
