China, Laos, and Vietnam are three of a handful of late socialist countries where capitalist economics rubs up against party-state politics. In these countries, sweeping processes of change open up new vistas of opportunity and imaginaries of the future alongside much uncertainty and anxiety, especially for their large rural populations. Contributors to this edited volume demonstrate the diverse ways in which rural people build futures in this unique policy landscape and how their aspirations and desires are articulated as projects involving both citizens and the state. This produces a politics of development that happens through and around the state as people navigate discourses of betterment to imagine and make new futures at individual and collective levels.
We are now entering the third decade of the 21st Century, and, especially in the last years, the achievements made by scientists have been exceptional, leading to major advancements in the fast-growing field of Genetics. Frontiers have organized a series of Research Topics to highlight the latest advancements in research across the field of Genetics, with articles from the members of our accomplished Editorial Boards. This editorial initiative is of particular relevance, led by Prof Erica Davis and Prof Jordi Pérez-Tur, Specialty Chief Editor of the Genetics of Common and Rare Diseases section, focused on new insights, novel developments, current challenges, latest discoveries, recent advances, and future perspectives in the field of Genetics of Common and Rare Diseases.

This book sheds light on the structure of “a unity with diversity” developed in the Qing imperial formation (1636–1912) by a case study of the Qing-Tibetan encounters in the eighteenth century. By analyzing historical and ethnographical materials, the book investigates the translation of Chinese histories and stone inscriptions into Tibetan, the transformation of the landscapes at Mount Wutai and Lhasa, and the transplantation of Chinese deities and medical practices to Tibet. It demonstrates the processes in which the cosmopolitan interlocutors reified imperial integrity while expressing their diverse longings and belongings. It concludes that the Qing’s rule over its cultural others was neither simply Sinicizing nor colonizing, but a translational process in which multivocalic actors shared narratives, landscapes, and practices, while the emperor and tantric masters performed cosmic power over humans and metahumans. This book cuts across the fields of anthropology, history, Chinese Studies, and Tibetan Studies. It reflects on the concepts of sovereignty and ethnicity, and it also extends the methodological horizon of historical anthropology.
The 20th International Conference on Systems Engineering Research (CSER 2023) pushes the boundaries of systems engineering research and responds to new challenges for systems engineering. CSER 2023 invited researchers and practitioners to submit their work in alignment with the thematic focus on a smart and sustainable world. CSER was founded in 2003 by Stevens Institute of Technology and the University of Southern California, and in 2023 the conference returned to the Stevens campus in Hoboken, New Jersey.
