The social space, according to Lefebvre, is produced by a certain spatial practice. The production itself, with the historical development of human social life, thus is bound to be a historical process. Therefore, the clue to understand the historical development of space can only start from the production mode of “how to produce” under certain historical conditions in which human beings change the productive forces of nature and inter-subjective relations of production; spatial production always relies on the spatial relations of a certain mode of production—the absolute space that is drawn from nature, the historical space that enters into accumulation, the space where bourgeois abstraction becomes domination, and the differentiated space in the future after the emancipation of mankind.

Productivity is the core category of historical materialism. A new change of human-digital-intelligence that new quality productive force manifests in terms of the system of production relations requires a historical materialist examination of human beings, the core element of productive forces, against social existence. The birth of new-quality productive forces is a must under a higher demand for productive forces put forward by the practical innovation of Marxist theory on productive forces in China, the advanced consciousness of the Party and the real needs of the reality of people. In view of this, it is necessary to accelerate the formation of a new type of production relations adapted to the development of productive forces, deepen the change of production relations, break the shackles of production relations—to promote the development of new quality productive forces in terms of man and nature, society and talent cultivation, reflecting the unity of productive forces and production relations. Finally, the new quality productive forces, through the new interpretation, drawn from intelligent media, virtual matter and free labor, of human and the human sensual activity-the object world-the practice of self-consciousness, of the confirmation of the essential power between man and man, of the manufacture and transformation of the object world, of the free and self-conscious labor practice, construct the digital mode of human existence, thus reflecting the fact that it is in line with the new mode of existence of human beings from the perspective of historical materialism.

Online public events, in the new stage of a society infused with the internet and new media, have become an important part of social crises. Their governance paths, therefore, urgently need to be innovated. This paper, based on the correlation analysis of a series of online public events, such as “A girl in Fujian jumped to her death for her being bullied by classmates”, reveals the influence of public memory awakening & updating, and implicit process on the derivation of online public opinion, and explores the practical path of media governance of online public events from the perspective of the public memory cycle. It is found that behind online public events are available problems such as social trust crisis, administrative resource hijacking, and hidden risk retention at various memory stages. Based on the logic, goal, and process guidance of media governance, it is possible to highlight “process-oriented” governance; such “problems” can be well addressed, with the collaborative participation of multiple subjects, by interrupting the relay of negative emotions, building a memory system, and weakening implicit risks.

Intelligentized governance is a new form of governance in the era of artificial intelligence and also represents a novel phase in mediatized governance. The increasing complexity of public issues and the growing sophistication of governance technologies are giving rise to a new paradigm of governance-intelligentized governance. From an “technology-society” interactive perspective, the operational mechanism of intelligentized governance includes the following aspects: at the level of actors, it broadly connects diverse agents, both human and non-human, thus weaving a co-governance network within the intelligent ecosystem; at the content level, it breaks down resource barriers to extract the deep value of data and information in a world where everything can act as a medium; at the method level, it streamlines and optimizes the cumbersome operational processes of traditional times through automated decision-making in administrative procedures; at the object level, it predicts target behaviors through statistical analysis and conducts assessments and early warnings for specific risks. Intelligentized governance faces challenges such as the formation of social and technological biases, the opaque operation of intangible algorithms in black boxes, and conflicts with the logic of public governance. These challenges need to be addressed through principles of publicness, agility, and digital good governance.

In order to promote the modernization of education to a higher level, implement China's Education Modernization 2035 Plan, and contribute theoretical strength to the formation of a Chinese atmosphere, Chinese style, and Chinese paradigm of education modernization, the breakthrough in the theoretical construction and practical exploration of China's education modernization urgently needs to be made: it is urgent to deepen the understanding of the relationship between the Chinese characteristics of China's education modernization and the universality of the world; it is urgent to systematically consider the relationship and systematicity of China's education modernization; it is urgent to think, with a local view, the essential connotation and indicator system of China's education modernization; it is urgent to proactively respond to the turning point and historical opportunity of China's education modernization; it is urgent to further explore how the modernization of Chinese education can promote the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation. The “Chinese path”, which is rooted in the local context and reflects characteristics and highlights traits, bears three dimensions of value orientation, namely “strengthening oneself”, “serving the country” and “assisting growth”. The proposal of Chinese path to modernization provides a new framework for the future development of China's education modernization, and also provides a new pattern and value implication for the theoretical innovation and practical direction of China's education modernization: the “Chinese path” leads China's education modernization to take an independent and endogenous development path; it overcomes the drawbacks in the process of education modernization; it transcends the past analytical frameworks; it highlights the unique path of socialist education modernization with Chinese characteristics; it positions the unique pattern and value implication of China's education modernization. The Chinese path bears four implications—in the comparative sense, it presents Chinese characteristics and world-class; in the sense of development, it adheres to the path, and reform and innovation; in the structural sense, it embraces priority development and coordinated promotion; in the systemic sense, it focuses on comprehensive development and structural optimization. The inherent correlation of Chinese cultural traditions may still serve as the foundation for carrying out socialization and emotional education in the context of modern education in China. In other words, education modernization should be nurtured in Chinese cultural traditions, because tradition not only provides us with a “perspective” to view the world, but also allows us to draw nutrients from it to better construct modern education.

To build an education power is a complex systematic project. The series of important statements delivered by General Secretary Xi Jinping on building an education power are important innovative achievements of Marxist state theory, which enhance and expand the strategic height, theoretical depth, and practical breadth of the world power theory, and reflect the high unity of the essence, purpose, practice, and methodology of building an education power. Drawn from the proposal of the concept of building an education power to the issue of “China's Education Modernization 2035 plan”, from General Secretary Xi Jinping's important speech at the fifth group study session held by the Political Bureau of the Communist Party of China (CPC) Central Committee to the important speech delivered at the 2024 National Education Conference, it can be concluded that the idea of building an education power has become more mature, the theoretical system has become more scientific, systematic, and perfect, and the measures have become more effective, marking the maturity of the theory of building an education power with Chinese characteristics and the acceleration of practice. To build an education power, we need to further grasp the overall trend, respond scientifically, implement comprehensive policies, accelerate the construction of an education power through Chinese education modernization, and provide Chinese theories, experiences, and models for the modernization of world education.

The unique spirit of Chinese educators, as it is rooted in fine traditional Chinese culture, is the crystallization of the spiritual character and values of outstanding educators. From the perspective of cultural philosophy, the rational thinking and practical promotion of the unique spirit of Chinese educators can be understood from three aspects: the logic of cultural value, the logic of cultural subject, and the logic of cultural activity. On this basis, clarifying the specific requirements and internal connections of the ideals and convictions, moral sentiments, educational wisdom, cultivation attitude, benevolence, and pursuit for a better world, the six elements of the spirit of educators, is conducive to clarifying the connotation and essence of the unique educator spirit infused with fine traditional Chinese culture. The learning and practice of the spirit of educators should continue to draw spiritual nourishment from the fine traditional Chinese culture. In the new era, teachers should promote the spirit of educators through reading, introspection, practice, innovation, and study tours, thus achieving the organic unity of values, subjects, and actions.

In the new era, China's high-quality economic development is facing the challenge of unbalanced and insufficient regional development, and it is urgent to accelerate the formation of new quality productive forces through technological innovation and green development. New quality productive forces can not only improve production efficiency and product quality, but also promote efficient utilization of resources and continuous improvement of environmental quality, thus providing new driving forces for regional coordinated development. Under the framework of new quality productive forces, enterprises and society should achieve effective growth in productivity through innovation-driven strategy and quality improvement. There is a close interaction between new quality productive forces and regional coordinated development. New quality productive forces not only promote regional economic development, but also bear a significant impact on regional coordination, balance, and sustainability. Regional coordinated development is an important foundation for cultivating new quality productive forces. In the current era of deepening globalization and informatization, new quality productive forces, with its high-tech and innovation driven characteristics, inject new vitality and potential into regional coordinated development. The practical effects of promoting regional coordinated development with new quality productive forces in the new era are reflected in regional coordinated development, R&D investment and innovation capabilities, emerging and future industry development, educational resources and talent reserves, green development and environmental governance. In order to cope with various challenges and explore an efficient and sustainable way of coordinated development of green regions for Chinese modernization, China should accelerate the formation of a new pattern of regional and national “horse-mass crossing middle-income trap”, strengthen regional cooperation through the “plate-chain pulling development” strategy, cultivate emerging industries, plan future industries, promote the equalization of social services, and form a green development model.

Against an open economy, the expansion of the local market bears a strong siphon effect and is thus an important way for a country to climb the global value chain. This paper divides the local market size in terms of intermediate input and final demand, and employs national panel data to study the impact of advantages that local market size enjoys and their siphon effects on global value chain upgrading. The results show that the expansion of local market size has a significant promoting effect on global value chain upgrading, and it has withstood the robustness and endogeneity tests; further heterogeneity analysis reveals that the global value chain enhancement effect produced by expanding local market size is more significant in developed countries, countries with high institutional quality, advanced product demand structures, and large household final consumption markets. In addition, siphoning international capital and innovation factors is the main channel through which the expansion of local market size affects the global value chain position, and the siphoning effect of local market size on capital is more significant in countries with a high proportion of technology intensive product demand, while its siphoning effect on innovation factors only exists significantly in countries with larger local market sizes. The research conclusion provides a reference for China to leverage its advantages in the super large market and promote “Made in China” to move towards the high-end of the global value chain.

Farmers' entrepreneurship functions as an important impetus to promote economic development in rural areas, and it is impacted positively by the engagement of digital finance. Probit model is established by employing the survey data of 1 525 households scattered in Yunnan, Guizhou, Sichuan, Chongqing, and Hunan provinces to empirically test the impact of digital finance use on farmers' entrepreneurship and its mechanism and heterogeneity. The results show that digital finance can significantly promote farmers' entrepreneurship and it still holds after a series of endogenous analysis and robustness tests. Compared with agricultural entrepreneurship, the promoting effect is greater on non-agricultural entrepreneurship; compared with development oriented entrepreneurship, this effect is greater on survival oriented entrepreneurship. The promotion is achieved through reducing financial acquisition costs, alleviating credit constraints and improving information accessibility. To promote rural entrepreneurship and innovation, especially the former, we should accelerate the development of rural digital finance, bridge the digital divide of vulnerable groups in rural finance, strengthen financial support from financial institutions for entrepreneurial farmers, and adopt more supportive policies for farmers' entrepreneurship.

In the digital age, the integration of digital technology and traditional disciplines is constantly innovating research methods and expanding research boundaries. Among them, the combination of digital technologies such as data processing and computational analysis with art history has opened up a new field of digital art history. In research practice, the research strategy of digital art history not only improves research efficiency, but also transforms “static art history” into “dynamic art history” through constructing relational networks and other means, providing a new perspective for art history research. Of course, digital art history also faces challenges such as subjectivity in image annotation and errors in data information. Overall, it needs to maintain critical thinking, avoid relying solely on data, continuously optimize research strategies, adhere to interdisciplinary perspectives, optimize data quality, sources, and processing methods, strengthen cooperation between technology and art, and inject new vitality into art history research.

The concept of new quality productive forces is highly compatible with the purpose of organized scientific research in universities, and both demonstrate the holistic characteristics such as innovation driven, system related, and dynamically balanced. As a methodological guidance for studying the complex ecosystem of new quality productivity and organized scientific research in local universities, the theory of systems science analyzes the relationship between the two based on its principles of innovation, integrity, relevance, and adaptability. It can be found that organized scientific research in local universities confronts with headaches such as insufficient innovation motivation, poor overall collaboration, incomplete system architecture, and limited dynamic leadership ability. Therefore, it is necessary to start from analyzing the three core elements of new quality productive forces, namely new workers, emerging labor materials, and new forms of labor objects, and explore the inherent relationship between organized scientific research in local universities and regional economic and social development. This will form a new organizational model supported by interdisciplinary collaboration, a new research model centered on technological innovation, and a new development model aimed at deep integration of industry, academia, research, and application. Furthermore, a dual triangle collaborative model for organized scientific research development in local universities will be constructed. Local universities should actively play the role of education as the first cornerstone, technology as the first productive force, and talent as the first resource. Starting from top-level design, system, structure, and action, they should adhere to goal orientation, rule engine, structural optimization, and collective action, form an organized scientific research new direction that matches the development of new quality productive forces, thus enhancing their ability to serve regional economic and social development.
