Recently, Professor Liu Mingyang and PhD student Li Weiwei published their paper " How Did‘make oneself known outside of fixed circle’Happen? —Research based on the social attributes of circles" in CSSCI (No. 6, 2021), which was published on the cover and reprinted in full by Xinhua digest (No. 18, 2021).

The paper argues that the fixed circle has the attributes of social development ecology, social knowledge organization, social cultural phenomenon and social capital form. "Making oneself known outside of fixed circle" is a kind of social behavior, and its motivation is horizontally divided into four factors: ecology, knowledge, culture and capital according to social attributes. Vertically, it is divided into the micro level of circle ontology breakthrough, the meso level of circle marginal communication and the macro level of circle ecological impact. "Making oneself known outside of fixed circle" has three value orientations: the reconstruction of social information order, the activation of social endogenous power and the construction of social value community.
