Proletarian China

A Century of Chinese Labour

By: Ivan Franceschini,Christian Sorace

A century of complex relations between Communists and workers in China In 2021, the Chinese Communist Party celebrated a century of existence. Since the Party’s humble beginnings in the Marxist groups of the Republican era to its current global ambitions, one thing has not changed for China’s leaders: their claim to represent the vanguard of the Chinese working class. Spanning from the night classes for workers organised by student activists in Beijing in the 1910s to the labour struggles during the 1920s and 1930s; from the turmoil of the Cultural Revolution to the social convulsions of the reform era to China’s global push today, this book reconstructs the contentious history of labour in China from the early twentieth century to this day (and beyond). This will be achieved through a series of essays penned by scholars in the field of Chinese society, politics, and culture, each one of which will revolve around a specific historical event, in a mosaic of different voices, perspectives, and interpretations of what constituted the experience of being a worker in China in the past century.

Shaken Authority

China's Communist Party and the 2008 Sichuan Earthquake

By: Christian P. Sorace

In Shaken Authority, Christian P. Sorace examines the political mechanisms at work in the aftermath of the 2008 Sichuan earthquake and the broader ideological energies that drove them. Sorace takes Communist Party ideas and discourse as central to how that organization formulates policies, defines legitimacy, and exerts its power. Sorace argues that the Communist Party has never abandoned its conviction that discourse can shape the world and the people who inhabit it. Sorace also demonstrates how the Communist Party's planning apparatus continues to play a crucial role in engineering China’s economy and market construction, especially in the countryside.Sorace takes a distinctive and original interpretive approach to understanding Chinese politics, and Shaken Authority demonstrates how Communist Party discourse and ideology influenced the official decisions and responses to the Sichuan earthquake. Sorace provides a clear view of the lived outcomes of Communist Party plans, rationalities, and discourses in the earthquake zone. The three case studies he presents each demonstrate a different type of reconstruction and model of development: urban-rural integration, tourism, and ecological civilization. Sorace’s work emphasizes the need for a grounded literacy in the political concepts, discourses, and vocabularies of the Communist Party itself. To dismiss China’s official discourse as "empty propaganda," Sorace argues, makes China and Chinese realities harder to understand, not easier.

Coordinated Multiuser Communications

By: CHRISTIAN SCHLEGEL,Alex Grant

Coordinated Multiuser Communications provides for the first time a unified treatment of multiuser detection and multiuser decoding in a single volume. Many communications systems, such as cellular mobile radio and wireless local area networks, are subject to multiple-access interference, caused by a multitude of users sharing a common transmission medium. The performance of receiver systems in such cases can be greatly improved by the application of joint detection and decoding methods. Multiuser detection and decoding not only improve system reliability and capacity, they also simplify the problem of resource allocation. Coordinated Multiuser Communications provides the reader with tools for the design and analysis of joint detection and joint decoding methods. These methods are developed within a unified framework of linear multiple-access channels, which includes code-division multiple-access, multiple antenna channels and orthogonal frequency division multiple access. Emphasis is placed on practical implementation aspects and modern iterative processing techniques for systems both with, and without integrated error control coding. Focusing on the theory and practice of unifying accessing and transmission aspects of communications, this book is a valuable reference for students, researchers and practicing engineers.

Come Up Hither

The Mystery of the Seven Churches

By: Christian Michael

Friend, the Lord has spoken better things of you. Don't settle at the plain, go further with the Lord. There is more to God than speaking in tongues. You are eligible to experiencing these over-flows. Consider the mighty experiences of the men of faith, yet they didn't finish their divine proportion of grace. Refuse to end the journey with premature satisfaction like Noah. Lay aside every past experience that wants to hold you back from these encounters. Prepare your heart as you make a journey with the Lord 'behind the veil'. There is a plan of regulation and ordinances but the divine law states that if anyone is dissatisfied with the plan then they must go up.

THE KING ON A CROSS

Three Time-Travelers Visit Jesus’ Death, Burial, and Resurrection

By: Christian Ryan

This story is taken from the Gospel of John in the Holy Bible and the parallel story is taking place at the same time. The parallel story is about three precocious children, Zoey 12 years old, Kim 10 years old and Ben 11 years old. Zoey and Kim have traveled back in time to when Christ Jesus ministered on earth. Zoey and Kim want their friends back in their home town to believe that Jesus existed as a living person then and continues to live in heaven with God the Father. The plan they have designed is to take film footage back home of the events that occurred during Jesus’ ministry on earth. This moving story about the death, burial and resurrection of our Lord and Savior Jesus has far reaching implications for those of us who are born again Christians and to those of you who may want Jesus to come into your heart and change your life forever. Enjoy this book as you see a part of Jesus’ life portrayed; a story about Jesus who has been our hope since we first gained knowledge about Him.

My Life as a Skateboarder Junkie Inmate Pastor

By: Christian Hosoi,Chris Ahrens
