I wonder what incentivizes left-center governments, such as Vienna's, to promote gender neutral language. Public opinion is leaning heavily against it. Granted, Vienna's population is likely more accepting. But I still doubt this wins more voters than it is driving voters away.

Author affiliations in a random sample of publications in 3 top China Studies journals.
The dominance of Anglo-US scholars is remarkable. A whopping 48% of knowledge on China published in these journals was produced in the US, UK, AUS and CAN. Only 33% was produced in Mainland China or Hong Kong.

While this is positive, it shows that the interpretation of “most people” is not stable. This is problematic for survey research. Even more problematic is that the radius widens with exposure to education and urbanization (i.e. modernization).

We also assess the radius of trust in “most people”: the extent to which survey respondents interpret “most people” to include strangers. Previous research has shown that the radius in China is narrow. We confirm this, but also find that the radius has widened over time.

Based on 11 national probability samples from two major surveys (1990-2020), we show that there was no decline of trust. For all indicators of trust - in “most people,” general trust (in strangers) or particular trust (in neighbors) - the means were stable with a slight upward trend.
