Post-90s
The Post-90 generation is a generation in China, especially in urban areas, generally considered to be born between 1990 and 1999 though sometimes considered to start with those born in the fall of 1989 (as they would graduate in the same class as those born in 1990). It is the Chinese counterpart to the late Generation Y in the Western world. They are also China's last 20th-century-born cohort. They are alleged to have traits that are similar to the Post-80s generation, such as the Little Emperor Syndrome and a knack for information technology and capitalism, but in a much more highly developed way. On the other hand, the post-1990 generation is also characterized as being more realistic about their place in society than the post-1980 generation. The Post-90 generation is also alleged to have less of a sense of hierarchy in the workplace and more of a sense of individuality compared to older generations. The Post-90 generation have distinct cultural characteristics and are often ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Generation
A generation is all of the people born and living at about the same time, regarded collectively. It also is "the average period, generally considered to be about 20–30 years, during which children are born and grow up, become adults, and begin to have children." In kinship, ''generation'' is a structural term, designating the parent–child relationship. In biology, ''generation'' also means biogenesis, reproduction, and procreation. ''Generation'' is also a synonym for ''birth/age cohort'' in demographics, marketing, and social science, where it means "people within a delineated population who experience the same significant events within a given period of time." The term ''generation'' in this sense, also known as '' social generations'', is widely used in popular culture and is a basis of sociological analysis. Serious analysis of generations began in the nineteenth century, emerging from an increasing awareness of the possibility of permanent social change and the i ...

Society Of The People's Republic Of China
A society () is a group of individuals involved in persistent social interaction or a large social group sharing the same spatial or social territory, typically subject to the same political authority and dominant cultural expectations. Societies are characterized by patterns of relationships (social relations) between individuals who share a distinctive culture and institutions; a given society may be described as the sum total of such relationships among its constituent members. Human social structures are complex and highly cooperative, featuring the specialization of labor via social roles. Societies construct roles and other patterns of behavior by deeming certain actions or concepts acceptable or unacceptable—these expectations around behavior within a given society are known as societal norms. So far as it is collaborative, a society can enable its members to benefit in ways that would otherwise be difficult on an individual basis. Societies vary based on level o ...

Strawberry Generation
Strawberry generation (; or ) is a Chinese-language neologism used in Taiwan for Taiwanese people born from 1990s onwards who "bruise easily" like strawberries – meaning they cannot withstand social pressure or work hard like their parents' generation; the term refers to people who are perceived as insubordinate, spoiled, selfish, arrogant, and sluggish in work. The term arises from the perception that members of this generation have grown up being overprotected by their parents and in an environment of stability, in a similar manner to how strawberries are grown in protected greenhouses and command a higher price compared to other fruits. The term gained prominence in the Taiwanese press, as it could be a way to designate a rising demographic or psychographic in terms of consumer behavior.

One Child Policy
The one-child policy ( zh, c=一孩政策, p=yī hái zhèngcè) was a population planning initiative in China implemented between 1979 and 2015 to curb the country's population growth by restricting many families to a single child. The program had wide-ranging social, cultural, economic, and demographic effects, although the contribution of one-child restrictions to the broader program has been the subject of controversy. Its efficacy in reducing birth rates and defensibility from a human rights perspective have been subjects of controversy. China's family planning policies began to be shaped by fears of overpopulation in the 1970s, and officials raised the age of marriage and called for fewer and more broadly spaced births. A near-universal one-child limit was imposed in 1980 and written into the country's constitution in 1982. Numerous exceptions were established over time, and by 1984, only about 35.4% of the population was subject to the original restriction of the polic ...

Moonlight Clan
Moonlight consists of mostly sunlight (with little earthlight) reflected from the parts of the Moon's surface where the Sun's light strikes. History The ancient Greek philosopher Anaxagoras was aware that "''the sun provides the moon with its brightness''". Zhang Heng's treatise "''The Spiritual Constitution of the Universe''" concludes that the light of the moon comes from the Sun. He writes that the Sun and Moon are "like fire and water" where the Sun "gives out light" and the Moon "reflects it". Illumination The intensity of moonlight varies greatly depending on the lunar phase, but even the full moon typically provides only about 0.05–0.1 lux illumination. When a full Moon around perigee (a " supermoon") is viewed around upper culmination from the tropics, the illuminance can reach up to 0.32 lux. From Earth, the apparent magnitude of the full Moon is only about that of the Sun. The color of moonlight, particularly around full moon, appears bluish to the ...

Generation Z
Generation Z (often shortened to Gen Z), also known as zoomers, is the demographic cohort succeeding Millennials and preceding Generation Alpha. Researchers and popular media use the mid-to-late 1990s as starting birth years and the early 2010s as ending birth years with the generation loosely being defined as people born around 1997 to 2012. Most members of Generation Z are the children of Generation X. As the first social generation to have grown up with access to the Internet and portable digital technology from a young age, members of Generation Z have been dubbed " digital natives" even if they are not necessarily digitally literate and may struggle in a digital workplace. Moreover, the negative effects of screen time are most pronounced in adolescents, as compared to younger children. Sexting became popular during Gen Z's adolescent years, although the long-term psychological effects are not yet fully understood. Generation Z has been described as "better behaved an ...
