SUMMARY:The Future of Sino-EU Relations After Brexit
DESCRIPTION:Philippe Le Corre\, Visiting Fellow – Foreign Policy\, Center on the United States and Europe\, The Brookings Institution\nCo-sponsored by the Weatherhead Center for International Affairs Program on Transatlantic Relations \nFor years China’s international investment interests focused on a search for natural resources in Africa\, Asia\, and Latin America. Recently China’s focus has shifted to Europe as well as the United States\, and to new fields as diverse as real estate\, energy\, hospitality\, transportation\, and heavy industry. \nChinese foreign investment is expected to grow throughout Europe in the years to come. For instance\, the financial crisis centered in Greece and the fall of the euro have helped China and some of its corporations create a new partnership within the European Union\, working to expand the country’s power through finance and infrastructure. \nPhilippe Le Corre examines the trends\, sectors\, and target countries of Chinese investments in Europe. Looking at cases of outbound investment trajectories and journeys by some key Chinese private and state-owned companies\, he also takes a look at European perceptions of China. \nPhilippe Le Corre is the author of “China’s Offensive in Europe” (Brookings\, 2016).

SUMMARY:Film Screening and Discussion: Mr. Deng Goes to Washington
DESCRIPTION:Mr. Deng Goes to Washington tells the story of Deng Xiaoping’s\, China’s paramount leader\, historic visit to the United States in 1979 that changed the trajectory of world history.  This dramatic story is told through first-hand experiences of those people from both countries who made the normalization of relations possible–politicians\, diplomats\,  and one former U.S. President.  Throughout the trip\, Deng had to face many different audiences and win the approval of the U.S. public and the U.S. Congress.  But in the end\, Deng’s wisdom in opening up a new course\, his determination and sense of humor and the American hosts’ good will and detailed preparations cemented the friendship between the U.S. and China and precipitated China’s meteoric economic rise for the next 36 years. \nDiscussants:\nEzra Vogel\, Henry Ford II Professor of Henry Ford II Professor of the Social Sciences Emeritus\,  Harvard University\nJan Berris\, Vice-President\, National Committee on U.S.-China Relations\nFu Hongqing\, Director\, Mr. Deng Goes to Washington\nZhou Zhixing\, Chair\, U.S.-China New Perspectives Foundation

SUMMARY:The Mining Industry\, Caravan Transportation and Ethnic Mobilization in southwest China from the 17th to 19th Century
DESCRIPTION:Speaker: Prof. Ma Jianxiong (Hong Kong U. of Science and Technology; HYI Visiting Scholar)\nChair/discussant: Prof. Michael Szonyi (Director\, Harvard University Fairbank Center) \nHarvard-Yenching Institute Lunchtime Talk \nThis talk will review the history of silver and copper mines on the borderland between Yunnan and Burma\, in particular the social organization of miners in remote mountainous areas. Two types of ethnic mobilization among the Hui and the Lahu will be examined. These two ethnic minorities were mobilized through different channels to politically resist the Qing government in interior counties and exterior chieftains. This was due to the political influence of unemployed miners\, which arose from the decline of borderland silver mines in the early 19th century and local governments’ subsequent failure to manage social mobility as miners shifted their work to agriculture or business. The talk aims to study how cooperative transportation system networks became interwoven by different social actors in cities and mines\, especially caravan muleteers whose mobility in metal transportation and commercial circulations was bound to the development of the mining industry and ethnic politics in southwest China. Different social sections cooperated through mediators such as the caravan muleteers\, silver miners and exiled monks. In general\, this talk will explain the historical reconstruction of borderland society in southwest China\, showing how ethnic mobilization was a social consequence of economic and political transformation resulting from the extension of state governance in mountain areas from the Ming to the Qing. \nhttps://www.harvard-yenching.org/events/mining-industry-caravan-transportation-and-ethnic-mobilization-southwest-china-17th-19th

SUMMARY:The Exile and Diplomacy of the 13th Dalai Lama (1904-1912): Tibet's Encounters with the US and Japan
DESCRIPTION:Speaker: Prof. Kobayashi Ryosuke (Toyo Bunko; HYI Visiting Scholar)\nChair/discussant: Prof. Leonard van der Kuijp (Harvard University)\n\nHarvard-Yenching Institute Lunch Talk \nThis talk will show how Tibet attempted to participate in the international community around the demise of the Qing Dynasty in 1912 by focusing on its relationships with the US and Japan. The sojourns of the 13th Dalai Lama (1876-1933) to Mongolia\, China and India from 1904 to 1912 were remarkable turning points that led him to reconsider the deteriorating relationship with the Qing dynasty and China and to begin participating in the modern international community. Through encounters with foreign dignitaries from Britain\, Russia\, the US and Japan\, the Dalai Lama\, who had never before been away from Tibet\, developed his understanding of the international community and of Tibet’s position in the world. This talk will discuss how the Dalai Lama conducted his diplomacy with the U.S. and Japan\, two newly influential countries in East Asia at the end of 19th century\, and how those countries dealt with Tibetan issues. \nhttps://www.harvard-yenching.org/events/exile-and-diplomacy-13th-dalai-lama-1904-1912-tibets-encounters-us-and-japan
