Features: The Annual Academic is a large-scale collection of humanities and social science essays published annually, dedicated to providing a limited yet effective platform for the development of contemporary Chinese cultural and intellectual thought. It includes professional research from various fields of humanities and social sciences, emphasizing the study of major theoretical issues and cutting-edge problems. It embraces diverse academic perspectives without restrictions or biases. The Annual Academic 2003, as the first issue in this series, was highly popular. Its broad scope and innovative theoretical viewpoints earned it recognition for its academic value from readers. This book (2004) is the second issue of The Annual Academic series. In line with the tradition of The Annual Academic in introducing cutting-edge research in major fields of Chinese humanities and social sciences, focusing on in-depth studies of significant theories, and translating selected new works by renowned overseas scholars, this issue features a strong lineup of Chinese scholars. They engage in new methodological research and discuss contemporary theoretical and practical issues, particularly those related to China, primarily from the perspectives of sociology, anthropology, economics, philosophy, and history. The book explores China's economic, social, and cultural phenomena, as well as the impact of widespread internet use and globalization on China and world development, thereby presenting the social formats of the world and China. The book primarily includes long-form academic essays written by prominent scholars active in the field. They have conducted their reflections within three thematic frameworks: "Historical Critique of Society," "Contemporary Social Issues," and "Phenomenological Commentary," making it a feast of academic discourse for the year.
