The Manifestations, Causes, Impacts and Across Paths of Pan-Securitization

Zong Wei(Wei Zong),He Haiyang(Haiyang He) 아시아사회과학학회 2023 Jornal of Asia Social Science Vol.10 No.2

In recent years, with the decline of globalization, the rise of nationalism in the US and Western countries has become more prominent. They have adopted conservative policies under the pretext of national security, leading to the proliferation of pan-securitization. Facing various and complex security challenges, countries have attached more importance to national security. Anyway, based on the Copenhagen School’s theory of securitization, the process of securitization can result in pansecuritization, which manifests in three aspects: the worship of securitization at the initiation stage; the excessive expansion of issues at the development stage; and the difficulty of de-securitization at the post-securitization stage. On the one hand, pansecuritization can cause problems such as security capital overdraft, radical change cultivation, lack of common security perception and human rights protection impairment within a country. On the other hand, it can also cause problems such as production efficiency reduction and security dilemma induction at the international level. The causes of pan-securitization are complex, but mainly stem from the interconnection of security threats, the monopoly of speech power by agents, the centralist political form and the endogenous defects of the Copenhagen School’s securitization theory. Today, guided by the overall national security concept, national security has received unprecedented attention. In view of the pan-securitization trap that the US and Western countries have fallen into, we should take measures from three aspects: security democratization, security legalization and de-worship of securitization to avoid repeating their mistakes. Only in this way can we enhance the effectiveness of issue securitization and improve the implementation efficiency of security policies.

Wei Peng,Jie Liu,Wei Peng,Chenxu Li,Fuxing Zong,Wensi Xu,Xing Zhang 한국화학공학회 2018 Korean Journal of Chemical Engineering Vol.35 No.8

Heterogeneous catalysts with low cost, environmentally friendly, highly effective and ready separation from aqueous solution are highly desirable. Magnetic CuO-Fe3O4 nanoparticles, a type of non-toxic bimetallic transition metal oxide, is a promising heterogeneous catalyst for activation of peroxymonosulfate (PMS) to generate reactive oxygen species (ROS) that has not been previously investigated. In this study, the activation of PMS by CuO-Fe3O4 nanoparticles was evaluated using the degradation of 4-chlorophenol as a model reaction. Several critical factors such as pH, catalyst dosage and PMS concentration were investigated. CuO-Fe3O4/PMS system demonstrated a wide effective pH range to degrade 4-chlorophenol, namely 5.5 to 9.5. With the increase of the catalyst dosage, the degradation efficiency of 4-chlorophenol appeared to increase first and then decrease, that the inflection point was 0.5 g/L. Elevated PMS concentration obviously improved the decomposition of 4-chlorophenol; however, the plateau was reached when the PMS concentration was 8mM. Further increase in PMS concentration would not significantly improve the removal efficiency. Through examining the effects of scavengers and electron spin resonance (ESR) analyses, CuO-Fe3O4 nanoparticles were proven to activate PMS through a non-radical and radical pathway to generate singlet oxygen, sulfate radicals and hydroxyl radicals. Based on results, CuO-Fe3O4 nanoparticles were effective, environmentally friendly and low cost catalysts for efficient activation of PMS. These features make CuO-Fe3O4 nanoparticles a readily available heterogeneous catalyst to activate PMS for refractory organic pollutants degradation in advanced oxidation processes (AOPs).

Re-analysis of the Terrorist Separation Activities of the Rohingya People

Zong Wei 아시아사회과학학회 2022 Jornal of Asia Social Science Vol.6 No.2

Tracing back and studying the causes of terrorist separatist activities by Rohingya people is the key basis for understanding this special social phenomenon. From the perspective of research methods, hierarchical research method, process research method and complexity research method are the main research methods often used by researchers when analyzing and studying the issues related to the terrorist separation activities launched by the Rohingya people. Although the hierarchical research method can analyze and study the behavior of inducing some Rohingya people to carry out terrorist separation activities from three specific “fulcrums”, such as individual experience, social interaction and group identification, the research idea that the research dimension is too single and static greatly weakens the explanatory power of this research method. The dynamic research idea of the process research method effectively makes up for the deficiency of the hierarchical research method. However, this research method interprets the phenomenon that triggers some Rohingya people to launch terrorist separation activities as an interlocking stylized process. However, this research method can t scientifically explain the terrorist separation activities that don t have the characteristics of non-sequential process in the actual application process. Although the complexity research method has provided a brand-new way of thinking for researchers in the practical process of applying it to the analysis of the terrorist separatist activities launched by the Rohingya people, it has not yet formed a relatively mature theoretical paradigm. Therefore, on the basis of analysis and summary, it is very important to study and discuss the practical application and development trend of complexity research method in the future.

Zong Wei,Yan Xiaorong,Hua Minchao 아시아사회과학학회 2021 Jornal of Asia Social Science Vol.5 No.3

China’s frontier society is in the process of social transformation. Take Xinjiang as an example, there are two parallel governance modes: local governance and corps governance. The proposal of “the Belt and Road Initiative” strategy reshaped the shape and status of Xinjiang, and made Xinjiang a center of two-way opening to the outside world, which had a far-reaching impact on the stability and development of border areas. In this discourse situation, it is necessary to look at the diachronic changes around “the Belt and Road Initiative” in Xinjiang from the comparison of history and modernity. Taking wasteland as the breakthrough point, this paper discusses the influence of Xinjiang Production and Construction Corps on Xinjiang’s modern social transformation in the ways of ethnic communication, regional development, world trade system, social domination, etc. by combing the comparison of Xinjiang’s wasteland and frontier defense, ethnic exchanges, agricultural development, trade and social development before and after the founding of the People’s Republic of China.

Analysis of Religious Development and Characteristics in Southeast Asia

Zong Wei,Ren Liang,Qu Jinshuai 아시아사회과학학회 2020 Jornal of Asia Social Science Vol.1 No.2

Southeast Asia is not only one of the birthplaces of human civilization, but also the region with various and complex religions in the world. Its religious development has a long history, which can be traced back to the period of primitive society. With the development of human civilization and social productive forces, the improvement of natural environment and cross-regional religious and cultural exchanges, the religious culture in Southeast Asia shows the characteristics of diversity, variability and mixing. This paper divides the development of religion in Southeast Asia into two stages, and focuses on the development and characteristics of different religions in Southeast Asia before the introduction of foreign religions and the development of emerging religions in Southeast Asia.

Glucose regulated protein 78 (GRP78) is frequently highlyexpressed in tumor cells, contributing to the acquisition of severalphenotypic cancer hallmarks. GRP78 expression is also positivelycorrelated with tumor metastasis, and promotes hepatocellularcarcinoma cell invasion via increasing cell motility, however, other mechanisms involving the prometastatic roles of GRP78remain to be elucidated. Here we report that forced GRP78expression promotes colon cancer cell migration and invasionthrough upregulating MMP-2, MMP-9 and especially uPAproduction. These effects of GRP78 are mediated by enhancingthe activation of β-catenin signaling. Interestingly, we identify thatGRP78 interacts with uPA both in the cells and in the culturemedium, suggesting that GRP78 protein is likely to directlyfacilitate uPA secretion via protein-protein interaction. Takentogether, our findings demonstrate for the first time that besidesstimulation of cell motility, GRP78 can act by increasingproteases production to promote tumor cell invasion.

Theoretical Thinking on India’s Cognition of Bangladesh-China-India-Myanmar Economic Corridor from the Perspective of Perception

宗蔚(Wei Zong) 아시아사회과학학회 2022 International Science Research Vol.2 No.2

“孟中印缅经济走廊(BCIM)”,是“一带一路”面向南亚、东南亚地区的区域经济发展与合作倡议。作为穿越该经济走廊的主要国家之一,印度对该倡议的态度长期被动,呈现“积极——消极——再积极”现象。这一现象对我国推进该经济走廊建设产生了部分不确定性因素。本文以“认知相符”、“诱发定式”和“历史类比”的分析框架,对国家间合作的认知相符作可视化的对比分析,从而深入把握印度对该经济走廊的认知、立场、决策的演变过程及未来展望。 The Bangladesh-China-India-Myanmar Economic Corridor (BCIM) is a regional economic development and cooperation initiative of “the Belt and Road initiative” for South Asia and Southeast Asia. As one of the major countries crossing this economic corridor, India’s attitude towards this initiative has been passive for a long time, showing the phenomenon of “positive-negative-positive again”. This phenomenon has caused some uncertain factors for China to promote the construction of this economic corridor. Based on the analysis framework of “cognitive agreement”, “induced formula” and “historical analogy”, this paper makes a visual comparative analysis of the cognitive agreement of inter-country cooperation, so as to deeply grasp the evolution process and future prospect of India’s cognition, position and decision-making on this economic corridor.

Autophagy in Tumorigenesis and Cancer Treatment

Xu, Dong-Wei,Zhang, Guan-Qing,Wang, Zong-Wei,Xu, Xiao-Yin,Liu, Tong-Xiang Asian Pacific Journal of Cancer Prevention 2015 Asian Pacific journal of cancer prevention Vol.16 No.6

Autophagy is a self-digestion process, wrapping cytoplasmic proteins or organelles to form vesicles for degradation in lysosomes. The process plays an important role in the maintenance of intracellular homostasis. Here we overview articles on autophagy and cancer/tumors in Pubmed and found 327 articles. Autophagy exists in many tumors and is involved in cell malignant transformation and tumor cell growth. In early phases of tumorigenesis, autophagy clears the abnormally folded proteins and dysfunctional organelles such as mitochondria. Autophagy can also inhibit cell stress responses and prevent genetic damage. When a tumor develops, autophagy helps tumor cells survive nutritional deficiencies and hypoxic conditions. Studies of autophagy in the occurrence and progression of tumors should provide new therapeutic strategies for tumors.
