In case you missed it — have a read through our recent report "The Great Broadcasting Retreat" on how China is shutting down hundreds of local TV and radio channels. And rebuilding its propaganda apparatus online. lingua-sinica.org/the-great-…
The book John is referring to is "How China Works," which I've recommended many times on my account, and truly the only must read book on the Chinese economy, no exaggeration.
It's available on Kindle for $81
Replying to @johnarnold
I learned a ton about how China works, which coincidentally is the name of the book I'm reading now that details the history and significant role the government has played in promoting growth. It feels the US is moving more towards that model than vice versa these days.

🚨 New research: We analyzed 1.5M+ documents to track LLM-assisted writing adoption across society from 2022-2024. The results?
📊By late 2024, LLMs assist in writing:
- 18% of financial consumer complaints
- 24% of corporate press releases
- Up to 15% of job postings (esp. in small/young firms)
- 14% of UN press releases
All showing similar adoption trajectories despite diverse contexts.

4.关于女性史这一块我推荐@UMich 的Wang Zheng教授的相关著作。其所著的《五四女性:口述与文本的历史》打破了中国共产党关于女性解放的垄断解释,以更加鲜活的视角去看待自清末开始的中国女性觉醒史。同时她也对中国早期女权主义的写作进行整理,但暂且好像没有中文版。
