"中国焦点"作文大赛
China Focus Essay Contest
2022"中国焦点"年度征文比赛由"中国焦点"(China Focus)倡议和组织，由“中国焦点"、圣地亚哥加州大学21世纪中国研究中心、复旦-加大当代中国研究中心、1990协会共同举办。本届比赛共有两个主题，邀请就读于中、美两国的本科生、研究生 (包括一年内毕业的学生) 任选其中一个主题，针对中美两国正共同面对的一些挑战表述自己的观点和看法。
比赛共将选出四篇优胜论文，每篇获奖文章作者将被颁发1,000美元奖金。与以往不同，此次比赛我们将同时接收中文及英文稿件，并且每个题目都会选出中、英文的获奖文章各一篇。得奖作品将有机会刊登于“中国焦点”及合作方的官方网站，获奖者也将被邀请参加征文论坛(线上)。
征文比赛题目 (二选一)
科技巨头对中美两国的经济和社会产生了深刻影响，对两国政府构成挑战。对决策者来说，如何对这些公司实行监管而又不扼杀国民经济的增长与创新是很大的考验。毋容置疑，这些监管对中美两国的政治和科技发展影响巨大。
请就上述问题撰写一篇文章分析两国最近出台的针对科技巨头的监管措施，并讨论这些措施在各自政治、经济或科技发展等方面造成的影响。若合适，您也可以尝试讨论有效监管政策背后的原则性框架。这个框架应当既促进创新，又保护消费者权益。
中美两国在一定程度上都面临虚假信息泛滥的问题。两国虚假信息的内容和规模怎样反映了两国内部的政治与社会冲突？两国应对虚假信息的措施有效吗？这些措施为何有效（或无效）？请您在回答上述问题的时候，根据两国的不同国情明确定义什么是虚假信息。
征文比赛资格和其它要求
参赛者须于2021至2022学年度在中国或美国大学注册或有学籍 (包括在一年之内毕业）的学生。比赛对本科生、研究生以及博士生开放。如果征文稿由多位作者共同撰写，则奖金须平分。
稿件必须为参赛者原创，中、英文皆可。征文长度介于1000字至2000字，文体属非学术论文，但必须有理有据，可以参照长篇时事评论或往届获奖征文。

China Focus Essay Contest
(English Version)
China Focus is proud to announce the 2022 China Focus Essay Contest. This year’s contest is organized by China Focus and is jointly hosted by the 21st Century China Center, the Fudan-UC Center on Contemporary China, and the 1990 Institute.
Starting this year, we will accept both Chinese and English submissions. The contest offers two topics and awards two prizes of $1000 for each topic: one top entry from Chinese language entries and the other from English language entries.
Award winners will grant China Focus and co-sponsors the right to publish their essays on their respective platforms or in their publications. They will also be invited to participate in a panel discussion about the two topics.
ESSAY TOPIC (CHOOSE ONLY ONE)
Both China and the U.S. face the challenge of large tech companies wielding huge influence in their respective economies and societies. How to regulate them without stifling growth or innovation is a key consideration for policymakers. Such regulations are also fraught with political and technological implications for both countries.
Write an essay that analyzes recent regulatory activities directed against large tech companies in both countries and considers their political, economic, or technological consequences. If appropriate, outline what principles should undergird a sensible regulatory framework that will promote innovation while protecting consumers.
Both China and the United States face the problem of disinformation to some degree. How does the scale and content of disinformation reflect political and societal conflicts in both countries? Have both countries responded effectively to counter disinformation? Why or why not? In discussing these questions, be sure to define disinformation in both national contexts clearly.
CONTEST REQUIREMENTS
Each entry must be the original work by students enrolled in U.S. or Chinese universities during the 2021-22 academic year as well as students who graduated from college after May 2021. The contest is open to undergraduate and graduate students. Collaborative projects are encouraged, but prize money must be split among collaborators. Entries can be in either English or Chinese.
Essays should be written in op-ed style (not academic, footnoted papers) with a length of 1,000-2,000 words.
Each entry will be reviewed by a panel of judges drawn from the China Focus board of advisers, experts in U.S.-China relations from the 21st Century China Center, and others with relevant expertise.
CONTEST DEADLINE
March 23rd, 2022, 11:59 PM PST
