The Political and Social Thought of Mou Zongsan

( Guoxiang Peng ) 성균관대학교 유교문화연구소 2021 儒敎文化硏究(中文版) Vol.- No.36

The political and social thought of Mou Zongsan (1909-95), one of the most important representatives of contemporary Chinese philosophy and Confucianism, was a lifelong endeavor for him and constitutes an indispensable part of his thought. It has been overlooked for much too long a time. This article aims to serve as an introduction to this dimension of his thought and so sketches out and discusses the core aspects of Mou’s political and social thought. Specifically, it focuses attention on the following six themes: (1) his critique of Marxism and, in particular, its materialistic dialectics and historical materialism dating from the early 1930s; (2) his response to various prevailing views that were informed and imbued with Marxism concerning Chinese history and society and the situation in rural China, along with his own understanding of Chinese history and society and his proposal for resolving the problems of rural China in the 1930s; (3) his comprehensive, systematic, and lifelong criticism of Communism in China; (4) his endorsement of freedom based on his contrasting analyses of the Western and Chinese liberal traditions; (5) his advocacy of a revised form of democracy in light of his penetrating observations on traditional Chinese politics combined with his reflections on Western democracy; and (6) his views on the relationship between mainland China and Taiwan and Taiwan’s identity. The presentation of these six themes not only embeds them in their historical context but also explores their contemporary significance.

Political Orientations and the Dilemma in the Yangming School

Guoxiang Peng 성균관대학교 유교문화연구소 2022 儒敎文化硏究(中文版) Vol.- No.38

There were various dimensions to Yangmingxue 陽明學, or the Yangming school, as defined not only by Wang Yangming 王陽明 himself but also by his students and followers in the mid-late Ming dynasty. This article will treat Yangmingxue as a whole from the perspective of political culture. It will explore two political orientations in Wang Yangming school, namely dejunxingdao 得君行道 (“carrying out the Way through the support of the emperor”) and jueminxingdao 覺民行道 (“carrying out the Way by enlightening the common people”), analyze the implications of these two orientations and scrutinize their relationship. Also it will examine and evaluate the concept of the “common people as political subjects” implied in Yangmingxue and the political ideal in the Confucian tradi­tion. The core questions that will be discussed are: First, how should we under­stand the political orientation, jueminxingdao, pioneered by the Yangming school, in addi­tion to dejunxingdao? Second, how should we understand the relationship between jueminxingdao and dejunxingdao in the Yangming school? Third, how should we understand the concept of the “common people as political subjects” implied in Yangmingxue and what is the dilemma it had to face? Last, why the Confucian political subject could not be established and how to establish it.

Shift robust control during inertia phase for random disturbance load

Guoxiang Cao,Anlin Wang,Xiaotian Liu,Donghuan Xu 대한기계학회 2020 JOURNAL OF MECHANICAL SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY Vol.34 No.1

The automatic transmission of earthmoving machinery generally has problems of shifting shock and poor control robustness. Low-frequency high-energy random loads and large-space model uncertainties are the main causes of these problems. Therefore, we considered a type of wheel loader automatic transmission as the research object and propose a robust control method for the shifting inertia phase of the earthmoving machinery automatic transmission. The control method includes a robust controller b K , a disturbance compensation controller d K and a feedforward compensator f K . The robust controller b K is designed by μ synthesis method to resist the uncertainties of parameters and structure and guarantee the output speed to track the reference input. A load dynamic estimation method for random disturbance load of automatic transmission is proposed, which improves the compensation effect of disturbance compensation controller d K . The feedforward compensator f K is used to eliminate the influence of the reference input on the system. The above control methods were applied to the whole machine simulation platform of a certain type of wheel loader, and the random disturbance load of the measured under real working conditions was taken as input load. Under the conditions of no-load, half-load and full load, the control method has good smoothness and strong robustness. This paper has reference value for solving the inertial phase shift robust control of transmission under random disturbance load.

Rethinking Nationalism, Patriotism, and Cosmopolitanism: A Confucian Perspective

( Guoxiang Peng ) 성균관대학교 유교문화연구소 2019 儒敎文化硏究(中文版) Vol.0 No.32

This article intends to probe the related issues of nationalism, patriotism, and cosmopolitanism from the perspective of Confucianism and present some observations and remarks. First, it examines nationalism and patriotism as two potentially related and possibly mutually transformed concepts in but not limited to the Chinese context. Second, it proposes how to properly understand cosmopolitanism in terms of the relationship between patriotism and cosmopolitanism and points out a key problem that cosmopolitanism has to address. Third, it highlights the Confucian understanding of humanity, self, and all-under-heaven, not only to present the Confucian perspective on these three issues but to locate Confucianism in regard to the contrast between patriotism and cosmopolitanism. Finally, it recommends Confucianism as a form of rooted cosmopolitanism or cosmopolitan patriotism, which, among various traditions in the world, can provide a theoretical and practical resource for reconciling the tension between cosmopolitanism and patriotism/nationalism. The Confucian perspective in this article is not based on one or more particular Confucian figures or texts. Rather, it is a view developed by a Confucian scholar, not only a scholar of Confucianism.

Metallic Hydrogen in Atomically Precise Gold Nanoclusters

Hu, Guoxiang,Tang, Qing,Lee, Dongil,Wu, Zili,Jiang, De-en American Chemical Society 2017 Chemistry of materials Vol.29 No.11

<P>Hydrogen-metal interaction is the foundation of many technologies and processes, but how hydrogen behaves in atomically precise gold nanoclusters remains unknown even though they have been used in hydrogenation catalysis and water splitting. Herein, we investigate how hydrogen interacts with [Au-25(SR)(18)](q) dusters and mono-atom-doped bimetallic [M1Au24(SR)(18)](q) clusters (M = Pt, Pd, Ag, Cu, Hg, or Cd) from first principles. We find that hydrogen behaves as a metal in these clusters and contributes its is electron to the superatomic free-electron count. This opposite behavior compared to that of the hydride in Cu and Ag dusters allows the small hydrogen to interstitially dope the gold dusters and tune their superatomic electronic structure. The doping energetics shows that when an eight-electron superatom is formed after H doping, the binding energy of H is much stronger, while binding of H with an already eight-electron superatom is much weaker. Indeed, frontier orbitals and the HOMO-LUMO gaps of [Au25H1(SR)(18)](0), [Au25H2(SR)(18)](+) [PtAu24H2(SR)(18)](0), [PdAu24H2(SR)(18)](0), [AgAu24H(SR)(18)](0), and [CuAu24H(SR)(18)](0) all have very similar features, because they are all eight-electron superatoms. By calculating the Gibbs free energies of hydrogen adsorption, we predict that PtAu24(SR)(18), PdAu24(SR)(18), and center-doped CuAu24(SR)(18) can be good electrocatalysts for the hydrogen evolution reaction.</P>

In vivo Pharmacokinetics, Activation of MAPK Signaling and Induction of Phase II/III 911Drug Metabolizing Enzymes/Transporters by Cancer Chemopreventive CompoundBHA in the Mice

Rong Hu,Guoxiang Shen,Usha Rao Yerramilli,Wen Lin,Changjiang Xu,Sujit Nair,Ah-Ng Tony Kong 대한약학회 2006 Archives of Pharmacal Research Vol.29 No.10

Phenolic antioxidant butylated hydroxyanisole (BHA) is a commonly used food preservative with broad biological activities, including protection against chemical-induced carcinogenesis, acute toxicity of chemicals, modulation of macromolecule synthesis and immune response, induction of phase II detoxifying enzymes, as well as its undesirable potential tumor-promoting activities. Understanding the molecular basis underlying these diverse biological actions of BHA is thus of great importance. Here we studied the pharmacokinetics, activation of signaling kinases and induction of phase II/III drug metabolizing enzymes/transporter gene expression by BHA in the mice. The peak plasma concentration of BHA achieved in our current study after oral administration of 200 mg/kg BHA was around 10 μM. This in vivo concentration might offer some insights for the many in vitro cell culture studies on signal transduction and induction of phase II genes using similar concentrations. The oral bioavailability (F) of BHA was about 43% in the mice. In the mouse liver, BHA induced the expression of phase II genes including NQO-1, HO-1, γ-GCS, GST-pi and UGT 1A6, as well as some of the phase III transporter genes, such as MRP1 and Slco1b2. In addition, BHA activated distinct mitogen-activated protein kinases (MAPKs), c-Jun N-terminal kinase (JNK), extracellular signal-regulated protein kinase (ERK), as well as p38, suggesting that the MAPK pathways may play an important role in early signaling events leading to the regulation of gene expression including phase II drug metabolizing and some phase III drug transporter genes. This is the first study to demonstrate the in vivo pharmacokinetics of BHA, the in vivo activation of MAPK signaling proteins, as well as the in vivo induction of Phase II/III drug metabolizing enzymes/transporters in the mouse livers.

Regulation of Nrf2 Transactivation Domain Activity by p160 RAC3/SRC3 and Other Nuclear Co-Regulators

Lin, Wen,Shen, Guoxiang,Yuan, Xiaoling,Jain, Mohit R.,Yu, Siwang,Zhang, Aihua,Chen, J. Don,Kong, Ah-Ng Tony Korean Society for Biochemistry and Molecular Biol 2006 Journal of biochemistry and molecular biology Vol.39 No.3

Transcription factor NF-E2-related factor 2 (Nrf2) regulates the induction of Phase II detoxifying enzymes and antioxidant enzymes in response to many cancer chemopreventive compounds. In this study, we investigated the role of receptor associated coactivator (RAC3) or steroid receptor coactivator-3 (SRC3) and other nuclear co-regulators including CBP/p300 (CREB-binding protein), CARM1 (Coactivator-associated arginine methyltransferase), PRMT1 (Protein arginine methyl-transferase 1), and p/CAF (p300/CBP-associated factor) in the transcriptional activation of a chimeric Gal4-Nrf2-Luciferase system containing the transactivation domain (TAD) of Nrf2 in HepG2 cells. The results indicated that RAC3 up-regulated the transactivation activity of Gal4-Nrf2-(1-370) in a dose-dependent manner. The enhancement of transactivation domain activity of Gal4-Nrf2-(1-370) by RAC3 was dampened in the presence of dominant negative mutants of RAC3. Next we studied the effects of other nuclear co-regulators including CBP/p300, CARM1, PRMT1 and p/CAF, and the results showed that they had different level of positive effects on this transactivation domain activity of Gal4-Nrf2-(1-370). But importantly, synergistic effects of these co-regulators in the presence of RAC3/SRC3 on the transactivation activity of Gal4-Nrf2-(1-370) were observed. In summary, our present study showed for the first time that the 160 RAC3/SRC3 is involved in the functional transactivation of TAD of Nrf2 and that the other nuclear co-regulators such as CBP/p300, CARM1, PRMT1 and p/CAF can also transcriptionally activate this TAD of Nrf2 and that they could further enhance the transactivation activity mediated by RAC3/SRC3.
