The Neoproterozoic is a very important stage in the global tectonic evolution, which experienced the amalgamation and break-up of the Rodinia. The Nanhua and Sinian strata in the Tarim Basin, which is one of the three major craton basins, have recorded a

Tectonics of SE China: New insights from the Lushan massif (Jiangxi Province) [PDF]
International audienceIn south China the Lushan massif forms a topographic high of the South China Block south of the Qinling-Dabie belt. The Lushan massif consists of two main lithotectonic units separated by a major tectonic contact: a Neoproterozoic ...

How should we use the Chinese past? Contemporary Confucianism, the 'reorganization of the national heritage,' and non-western histories of thought in a global age [PDF]
In this essay I argue that recent philosophical attempts to ‘modernise’ Confucianism rehearse problematic relationships to the past that – far from broadening Confucianism’s appeal beyond its typical borders – end up narrowing its scope as a source of ...
