Global Review of Humanities, Arts and Society (GRHAS), Volume 1, Issue 4 (2025), presents a collection of original research and theoretical investigations under the theme “Cultural Interfaces in Perception, Memory, and Governance.”

This issue features four peer-reviewed articles that explore interdisciplinary approaches to affect, education, embodiment, and digital governance:

• Affective belonging and community engagement: Examines how nostalgia psychologically motivates community support behavior in rural tourism contexts.

• Cultural transmission through education: Investigates the pedagogical and cognitive value of classical poetry recitation in primary school Chinese language teaching.

• Embodied perception in choreographic practice: Applies ecological perception theory to understand dancer–environment interaction in site-specific dance.

• Digital governance and AI ethics: Offers a bibliometric and comparative study of global trends in AI-enabled social governance using CiteSpace analysis.

Together, these contributions articulate how emotion, body, technology, and cultural identity intersect within contemporary societal frameworks, advancing cross-disciplinary dialogue across the humanities, arts, and social sciences.
