I find that the wage growth rate declines slowly with age, although the absolute value of wages has been rising. After a brief comparison of the financial sector, the information technology sector, and agriculture, I find that the pattern of their wage growth rates is similar, i.e., the wage growth rate declines slowly with age. Then, through empirical tests, I find that a gender wage gap does exist in the finance industry and that the gender wage gap gradually increases with age. Based on this, I further investigate the relationship between the age of female workers and the wage growth rate, and the possible reasons why the wages of female workers are lower than those of male workers. I find that the wage growth rate of female workers also gradually decreases as their age increases. Moreover, having children has a significant negative effect on the wage growth rate, but the marital status does not.","PeriodicalId":219226,"journal":{"name":"Advances in Politics and Economics","volume":"15 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-04-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"131732562","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The analysis begins with how China’s foreign policy is formulated and is divided into core, middle-range, and long-range and then delves into theoretical frameworks, including realism, constructivism, and liberalism. Also, this paper will highlight in this literature review how a leader’s choice, national compromise, and the system pressure deeply influence the foreign policy of China. The strategic objectives of China’s politics, military, and diplomatic initiatives, along with the role of leadership in maintaining world peace, diplomatic influence, and foreign aid, are also examined. The review concludes with an assessment of the implications of China’s rise for regional stability, international order, and power dynamics among major players.

It is a new height of The Communist Party of China’s ecological civilization theory. Therefore, sorting out the historical logic of the birth of the “two mountains” theory and examining its essential provisions are of certain value and significance for deepening the understanding of the relationship between human beings and nature, steadily promoting economic ecology and ecological economization, and opening up new horizons for the study of Marxist Eco-philosophy.","PeriodicalId":219226,"journal":{"name":"Advances in Politics and Economics","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-04-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130193372","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

As an important part of advancing the Rule of Law in China, public legal education should be timely innovated with the help of new technology. By combining the knowledge graph technology in the era of artificial intelligence with the work of public legal education, this paper studies how to use the knowledge graph technology to build public legal education network platform, introduce customized legal education content, and establish a sound mechanism for intelligent public legal education work, so that users can complete the important transformation from the object of legal education to the subject of law learning.

Specific vocabulary and abilities pertaining to professional communities and academic fields are needed for ESP courses. Internationally, English is used extensively in higher education. The demand for academic English courses has grown significantly (Jordan, 1997).English, the universal language of science, is now known as English for Specific Purposes (ESP) in non-English speaking nations (Ghanbari, 2010). The teaching of English as a Second Language (ESP) in Sindh is a growing field. Learning English for a specific purpose is an essential part of language instruction at the higher educational level, with the objectives being to learn specialized vocabulary, increase subject knowledge by reading in English, and be able to use the language in a potential profession or study area by getting ready for some common situations, like carrying out higher level studies, attending an interview, or conducting professional conversations (Varnosfardani, 2009).Many English language courses in academic contexts are built on the premise that language should be connected to the purpose for which students are expected to use the language after their studies. For medical students, the purpose of an ESP course is to support them in there is academic work and future jobs. English is particularly significant in medical learning because medical textbooks and professional publications are predominantly written in English (Bensoussan, Collado, Viton, & Delarque, 2009).English as the primary language for international communication is now generally acknowledged. Determine the issues with ESP classes by carefully examining the attitudes and views of students and teachers. Learning a second language is generally seen as distinct from learning one’s native tongue, and it is frequently believed that factors affecting one’s ability to learn a second language have no bearing on the development of one’s native tongue.Knowledge of a second language affects one’s capacity to manage information in the native tongue. Contemporary cognitive and psycholinguistic models of bilingualism claim that the two languages interact, even during language-specific processing. Understanding the interaction between two languages is crucial since it is still being determined how acquiring a second language impacts native-language function.Background of the study:At an average age of 18, Dow Medical University in Sindh students enter medical college straight out of high school. To evaluate students, the educational system mostly uses teacher-based assignments, exams based on memorization, and norm-referenced tests. The majority of students develop passive learning habits as a result. The major language of instruction in Sindh’s secondary school system is urdu; beginning in grade 4, English is introduced as a second language.

Harai spends too much of his time repeating Ramsey’s claims about having uncovered serious errors in the structure of Keynes’s relational propositional theory. .For 100 years, Keynes’s logical theory has been interpreted and misevaluated through the eyes of an ignorant 18 year old teenager. The result has been the proliferation and spread of what can be called the “Ramsey myth”.The “Ramsey myth” is that an 18 year old teenager appeared at Cambridge University in 1921.This 18 year old teenager was a genius who wrote a three page review in the Jan., 1922 issue of Cambridge Magazine, which supposedly destroyed, devastated and demolished the logical foundations of Keynes’s A Treatise on Probability, which was his relational, propositional logic founded on Boole’s relational, propositional logic. Russell countered this in his review, but was ignored (See Brady, 2016a). In 1931, it is further supposed that Keynes then capitulated to Ramsey and repudiated his own logical theory of probability, accepting some version of Ramsey’s subjectivist theory. This myth is what Hirai’s paper is based on. It was false in 1921 and it is false today in 2022.","PeriodicalId":219226,"journal":{"name":"Advances in Politics and Economics","volume":"49 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-01-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"134231958","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
