The renaming of the Central Committee for Comprehensive Management of Public Security to the Central Committee for Comprehensive Social Management might [be] indicative of the "new" approach to social management, one toward better intelligence and control tactics. The [Chinese] government combined [its] recent social safety net and the policing/censorship apparatus in an effort to create a system for preventing and managing social unrest. This trend suggests a more permanent phenomenon in Chinese control tactics than a reactionary and more reversible policy shift. 1, record 1, English, - Central%20Committee%20for%20Comprehensive%20Social%20Management

Le fait que le Comité central pour la gestion globale de la sécurité publique a été renommé le Comité central pour le contrôle global de la gestion sociale peut révéler l’adoption d’une «nouvelle» approche pour ce qui est de la gestion sociale, approche qui vise le recours à des tactiques améliorées en matière de renseignement et de contrôle. Le gouvernement a combiné son filet de sûreté sociale récent et ses instances chargées du maintien de l’ordre et de la censure dans un effort pour créer un système permettant de prévenir et de gérer les troubles sociaux. Cette tendance suggère l’existence d’un phénomène plus permanent au sein des tactiques de contrôle chinois qu’un simple changement réactionnaire, et davantage réversible sur le plan des politiques. 1, record 1, French, - Comit%C3%A9%20central%20pour%20le%20contr%C3%B4le%20global%20de%20la%20gestion%20sociale

While the critics of A. I. were not easily silenced, there were, by general consensus, a new burst of energy and several significant achievements in the field in the early 1970s. This second wave is epitomized by Winograd's SHRDLU, the shift from generalist to expert knowledge systems, and the fusion of features of declarative and procedural approaches. At this time, there was another vital, though rather controversial trend : the increasing used of a top-down approach to the understanding of language and other cognitive domains, as exemplified in Roger Schank's scripts and Marvin Minsky's frames. 1, record 5, English, - top%2Ddown%20approach
