Start the Movement towards the West, Promoting Development of West China ZHOU Li-qun, LIU Dong-xun 2000, (12):  17-24.  DOI: Abstract ( )   PDF (1989KB) ( )   As is known to all there exists unbalance in industry and economy among different countries and different regions. Generally speaking, industries at high-level regions may spontaneously move to low-level regions for room of further development. In a large country such as China it is only natural that we take advantage of this tendency to encourage waves of gradual movements among areas with different levels of economic growth. The author points out that since the second half of 1990s, relative advantages of labor-intensified industries in East China have been weakened or even disappeared. In addition, a sufficient industrial gap between East China and Central or West China has become quite evident. At this point, it is natural that labor-intensified industries in East China should move towards the west. References | Related Articles | Metrics

Modernity of Marxist Philosophy ZOU Shi-peng 2000, (12):  31-35.  DOI: Abstract ( )   PDF (564KB) ( )   Modernity of Marxist philosophy refers to the quintessence of Marxist philosophy activated by modern problems. Marx has always been alive. Interpretation of modernity of Marxist philosophy, then, means unremittingly carrying out contemporarity of Marxist philosophy. The most important significance of Marxist philosophy to modern philosophy lies in transformation of ontology initiated by Marxist philosophy. In other words, transformation from transcendent and substantial ontology to emotional and practical existentialism has always been an objective of modern Western philosophy. Compared with current theories of globalization so popular in the West, we have better reasons to consider Marxist philosophy the philosophy of mankind at a time of globalization.
