On the Political Development of Hong Kong in the Past Decade since the Handover QI Peng-fei 2007, (6):  5-13.  DOI: Abstract ( )   PDF (2460KB) ( )   Ten years has passed since the handover of Hong Kong. Remarkable progress has been achieved although the construction of a new Hong Kong under the guideline of "one country,two systems" has been severly challenged by controversial issues such as the"Article 23′ legalization of the Basic Law"and "Universal Suffrage".Guided by the central government and with the joint efforts of the Hong Kong administration and the Hong Kong people,we managed to realize the ideal of "seeking the common ground of one country,while reserving the differences of two systems".In the long course of repeated wearing between "one country" and "two systems",and between "changing" and "unchanging",Hong Kong has stood the preliminary trial of "maintaining sustainable stability and prosperity".A brighter tomorrow is close at hand and the Hong Kong model of "one country,two systems" is gradually coming of age.

Virtual Economy:An Effective Tool for Transformation of the Capitalist Mode of Production HE Wen-tao, WANG Cheng-jin 2007, (6):  14-19.  DOI: Abstract ( )   PDF (1545KB) ( )   The author points out that an accurate expression of the analysis paradigm "productive force—production relations" in classics of Marxism should be "productive force—production mode—production relations",as the latter can better reflect the essence of economic activities and human social development in a more logical way.Starting from the analysis of this paradigm, the paper then discusses the major changes in the mode of production,that is,the "mode that secures our own life",in the developed capitalist countries,which has been a consequence of the general development of virtual economy.These changes include the following: reduced reliance of production on the material capital,possibilities for the laborers to get rid of the control of production capital,more sources of income,changes in the needs of the consumers,higher professional level of the laborers,and hence labor is freed from the capital.All these changes have led to transformation of the capitalist mode of production marked by the control of capital over labor and labors.In this sense,virtual economy is an effective tool to ensure that this transformation can take place.

On the Social Order under Capitalism in the Information era——A Review of The Great Disruption: Human Nature and the Reconstitution of Social Order by Fukuyama TAO Wen-zhao 2007, (6):  36-40.  DOI: Abstract ( )   PDF (923KB) ( )   The Great Disruption: Human Nature and the Reconstitution of Social Order written by Francis Fukuyama explores the inharmonious social factors under the American capitalist system in the information era from the perspectives of crime,family and trust.Having analyzed the account offered by the left-wing and the right-wing for the disruption,Fukuyama claims that the great disruption is in essence caused by technological progress,and that the thoughts of individualism and the decline of traditional family structure are destructive forces,too.Fukuyama believes that the great disruption leads to loss of social capital,so the countermeasure lies in increasing the social capital,and American capitalism is capable of doing this.As a speaker of "the end of history" Fukuyama attempts to maintain and repair capitalism.However,there exist potential and evident crises in modern capitalism.Fukuyama’s concern with the disruption in the information era shows a certain degree of foresightedness with some implications.
