“Inflection Point Generation”Multiple trajectories of destiny
Incorruptible Thoughts
(Source: "w88 online casino betting's Forum"2013-7-9）
Contemporary China is experiencing three important turning points, indicating fundamental changes in its development stage. The first is the Lewis turning point, which is marked by the disappearance of the unlimited supply of labor. The second is the aging turning point marked by the population dependency ratio stopping falling but rising instead. The third one is the breakthrough in the urbanization rate in mainland China50%represents the turning point of urbanization. The simultaneous emergence of these three turning points is a major indicator signal in China's development process. It makes China in transformation face more and greater challenges, and it has extraordinary and far-reaching significance for contemporary young w88 online casino betting.
Lewis turning point——Transformation from production-based socialization to educational-based socialization
The arrival of the Lewis turning point means that the feature of unlimited supply of labor is gradually disappearing, which indicates the support of our country’s economy30The abundant and cheap labor force that has grown rapidly over the past years has become scarce. To continue to maintain rapid economic growth, we must transform the industrial structure, improve technological levels, and achieve industrial upgrading and transformation. This will create a kind of situation for a large number of labor-intensive enterprises in our country“Repulsive”12975_13077
The requirements for workers’ knowledge and skills have increased, resulting in the extension of the study period required for young people, and the delay in starting work. A person’s youth is spent longer in w88 casino. This means that young people only devote themselves to the systematic learning process for a longer period of time. It is too late to be exposed to and subject to various social norms, and it is too late to understand and perceive various social and political systems. It is late to achieve independence in material life, and the time provided by parents is extended. The physiological maturity of youth moves forward and the social maturity moves backward. The process of social maturity begins to separate from the process of physiological maturity, forming a relatively independent social group and corresponding cultural system, and so on.
The above-mentioned changes in contemporary youth will inevitably affect their life development, behavioral tendencies, and their social attitudes. This is a transition from production-based socialization to educational-based socialization. Educational socialization mainly refers to receptive and reflective behaviors, especially in the w88 casino learning stage. On the contrary, productive socialization refers to an experience dominated by extroverted behavior, which is manifested in tangible and visible results. Its success or failure is not only related to oneself, but also to others. Production socialization is achieved while working within a unit or enterprise, while educational socialization is achieved in schools or other training facilities. In addition to the different places where they are achieved, these two types of socialization also differ in actual experiences, and their relationships with society and the future are also different. As far as production socialization is concerned, as long as you participate in work, even the most trivial work, you have a concrete relationship with others and with the development of society(Sometimes even specific and blind)Relationship;In educational socialization, the relationship with society and others is abstract, and the understanding of society“Ying Ran”Ingredients greater than“Shi Shi”Ingredients, there is more room for maneuver and fewer restrictions, but at the same time the individual's social integration ability is weakened or even lost. Therefore, the educational socialization caused by the Lewis turning point not only makes the role of work experience in youth socialization increasingly smaller, but also makes the social system more disconnected from personal growth. It is foreseeable that in the future, more and more highly educated young w88 online casino betting will face more brutal social transformation.
Inflection point of aging——Transformation from pre-figurative culture to post-figurative culture
Currently, the age structure of our country's population has undergone tremendous changes, and the proportion of young w88 online casino betting in the total population has declined.201320037_200512100 million mark, the aging level will reach14.8%. From now on, my country’s population aging process will accelerate,21The peak of aging will be reached in the middle of the century,60The elderly population aged 21684 and above will exceed4billion, accounting for the total population30%Above.
With the acceleration of technological innovation and the rise of the knowledge economy, the entire social structure has also changed. From an employment perspective, the rise of the knowledge economy will have a great impact on the employment and re-employment of the elderly. Exclusion of the elderly from emerging industries will bring a series of consequences. First, the relative income of the elderly has declined, from the emergingITJudging from the income gap between the industrial and capital finance industry and traditional industries, if this trend is correct, then this polarization phenomenon will become more and more serious in the future, and it will mainly manifest itself in the income gap between the elderly and young w88 online casino betting. Secondly, the social status of the elderly has further declined. The elderly are excluded from mainstream industries, which means they are excluded from mainstream society. In society, they cannot have a large impact on social affairs. Within the family, their control over their children also slowly waned.
The arrival of the turning point of aging has pushed young w88 online casino betting to the center of the stage of the times, making them the backbone of social development. Western scholars once divided society into“prefigurative culture”、“Common metaphor for culture”and“Post-metaphoric culture”Three eras. in“Prefigurative culture”In the middle, the younger generation mainly learns from the elders;“Common metaphor for culture”The learning of middle-aged, younger and elders all happens among peers. The vigorous development of the knowledge economy has brought about tremendous changes in the entire society, and the society has entered a period where the elders in turn learn from the younger generations“Post-metaphoric culture”Period. If there were some elders in the past who knew more than the young w88 online casino betting based on their accumulated experience in a specific cultural system, this is no longer the case today. Therefore,“Post-metaphoric culture”The advent of the era reminds us that young w88 online casino betting will have a louder voice in the future. We must pay attention to the role of young w88 online casino betting, especially their values and political attitudes.
Youth’s values and life concepts are the most active ideological phenomena of an era. Among young w88 online casino betting, sometimes although their analysis of ideologies cannot be heard, their special, concrete and vivid value ideals and life principles can be understood in their thinking about daily life. These are the most extensive, real and dynamic ideologies. If our mainstream ideology cannot successfully communicate and dialogue with young w88 online casino betting, it means that its universal significance will be greatly reduced.
Urbanization turning point——Transformation from solid China to mobile China
2011At the end of the year, my country’s urbanization rate reached51.3%. Along with the world's most rapid population urbanization process, our country is experiencing the largest population flow in human history. From a spatial perspective, this flow is a process in which populations continue to gather in large cities. In the future, my country will enter a stage of rapid development of population mobility. The distribution of China's migrant population will gradually form a migrant population distribution pattern with the eastern coastal urban belt as the center of gravity, the inland urban agglomerations as the central axis, and the western central cities as the gathering points.
The arrival of the turning point of urbanization will have a significant impact on contemporary youth. In traditional societies, trust was always associated with kinship relationships or territorialized communities as places, but under modern conditions this becomes less important. In a highly socialized urban society, increasingly broad and rich social relationships occur between w88 online casino betting through division of labor and market exchange, and kinship ties are simply not enough to be the carrier of such broad social relationships;In traditional society“Geography”36025_36040“Out of domain”The mechanism has been eliminated, and geography has been inextricably linked to globality. This change from kinship and geography to detachment has profoundly affected the socialization of youth.
Flow should be viewed as a new paradigm. China is changing from a solid society to a fluid society, from a static space to a fluid space. In this process, new urban immigrants flow to the city through various channels. They carry with them the information of the original villages and small towns, just like water flowing through all kinds of“Barrier”Enter the physical environment of the city and have unforeseen effects on its surroundings. New urban immigrants shuttle between rural areas and cities, thus forming various, unstable, unpredictable, and non-linear phenomena“wave”. these“wave”itself does not clearly show us how to stop their flow, at what speed they flow, and the conditions they change during the flow. Therefore, no one can know what their final state will be like, nor can they guess where they are going. This also means that as time goes by, new immigrants in the city would rather create their own living environment for themselves rather than letting themselves be influenced by the environment. New urban immigrants are able to self-organize, self-create and maintain their own boundaries to a certain extent, and this self-made process will surely profoundly change China's urban ecology and social structure.
Today, those who grew up in the tide of reform and opening up“80After”、“90After”, catching up with an era of turning point, they can be called unique“Inflection point generation”. They are lucky: the collision of concepts, the interpenetration of ideas, and the parallelism of values constitute an unprecedented multicultural landscape, creating countless opportunities for choices and space for this generation of young w88 online casino betting to express their individuality. However, this is destined to be a difficult generation: loneliness and depression when a person grows up,“four two one”The burden of family survival, the fierce and cruel competition, and the uncertainty of the future……They have a growth experience that no previous generation of Chinese youth has had;They have also divided into different subgroups:“Ant clan”、“White-collar workers”, poor second generation, new generation migrant workers, returnees, rich second generation……China in its transition period needs a generation of young w88 online casino betting who can both look up to the stars and have their feet on the earth.
