| Summary/Abstract |
While past studies have focused on how China's political elites, such as local "top leaders" or senior cadres, are promoted, there has been relatively little research, largely due to lack of data, into local middle-level cadres. This study collects a data set consisting of 582 local middle-level cadres' professional résumés and analyses the influence of such résumés on promotion. Regression results have shown that educational attainment, particularly "first degree", has the most significant impact on speed of promotion, demonstrating that "educational credentialism" is one-sided. Furthermore, the speed at which one is promoted to deputy chu (处) level greatly influences one's subsequent career acceleration; this indicates that promotion has a strong degree of continuity. The impact of cross-departmental work experience on promotion is also significant but overturns the conventional perception that those who have worked in multiple positions are more likely to be promoted. Overall, the promotion process in China is not unique as it shares several characteristics with major states that have a technocratic tendency.

| Summary/Abstract |
The recent introduction of the "donation-based legal personality" classification is a milestone in the ongoing process of promoting the rule of law in the regulation of religious activities in contemporary China. Its implementation, however, may be confronted by both theoretical and empirical obstacles. Based on judicial review and findings of research fieldwork conducted in some of the major Buddhist temples in China, this study discusses the judicial, social and practical dilemmas of conferring donation-based legal personality on Buddhist temples. It reveals that the issues related to the land and property ownership of Buddhist temples are complex and that the unique traditional internal organisational structure of Buddhist temples has posed challenges to conferring donation-based legal personality upon them.

| Summary/Abstract |
Mainland China has eleven nuclear power reactors in commercial operation; six are under construction, and several more are slated for development in the near future. Additional reactors are planned, including some of the world's most advanced, to give a fivefold increase in nuclear capacity up to 40 GWe by 2020, and then a further three to fourfold increase to 120-160 GWe by 2030. The natural uranium supply, however, does not correspond to the speed of nuclear power development because of low production and poor deposits. After examining the existing nuclear power status quo in China, this paper provides an experimental model and a calculation method for the natural uranium needed that is based on the nuclear capacity to be installed in 2014. The natural uranium gap is further discussed through an analysis of the uranium resource distribution, reserves, and production in China, together with approaches to fill the gap. To meet the imminent uranium peak that will be required for fuel demands, China should diversify natural uranium sources and develop advanced nuclear power systems to save fuel.

| Summary/Abstract |
Using the case of a state-owned coal mining enterprise located in an agriculture-dominated region of China undergoing rapid industrialisation, this empirical study investigates how employees express their opinions during neoliberal restructuring. The findings show that workers cautiously select their voice channels and strategies in the context of increasing levels of unequal income distribution and managerial power. This article highlights the legacy of socialist ideology and practice, the prevailing cultural values and norms, and the close interpersonal relationships which together shape the localities in which workers develop their voice and strategies for action.
