Notes

↩ [1] 中华外国经济学说研究会 (Zhōnghuá Wàiguó Jīngjì Xuéshuō Yánjiūhuì): The Chinese Society of Foreign Economic Theories is a national academic organization focused on the study of Western economic thought (both classical and contemporary) from a Marxist perspective. Its leadership, such as Cheng Enfu, often represents the "Modern Marxist Economics" school in China.

↩ [2] 借鉴 (jièjiàn): Literally "to use as a mirror," this term is used in Chinese policy and academic discourse to describe the process of critically absorbing and applying useful elements of foreign (usually Western) theories or experiences while maintaining a socialist foundation.

↩ [3] 会员代表大会 (huìyuán dàibiǎo dàhuì): Membership Representative Congress. In the structure of Chinese academic societies, this is the highest authority, reflecting the "democratic centralist" organizational structure where representatives vote on major appointments and constitutional changes.

↩ [4] 理事会 (lǐshìhuì) and 常务理事 (chángwù lǐshì): Reflecting the administrative hierarchy of Chinese social organizations, the "Council" (Council members) acts as the governing body, while the "Executive Council" (Executive Council members) handles the Society's routine decision-making between plenary council meetings.

↩ [5] 排名不分先后 (páimíng bù fēn xiānhòu): A standard disclaimer in Chinese official documents meaning "names are not listed in order of seniority or importance," often used to avoid protocol issues among high-ranking scholars or officials. Often, names are actually listed by the number of strokes in the surname (stroke count), though not specified here.
