SUMMARY:A roundtable discussion on "Encountering China: Michael Sandel and Chinese Philosophy"
DESCRIPTION:Participants:\nMichael Sandel (Anne T. and Robert M. Bass Professor of Government\, Harvard University)\nJoseph C.W. Chan (Professor\, Department of Politics and Public Administration\, University of Hong Kong)\nChaibong Hahm (President\, The Asan Institute for Policy Studies\, Korea)\nTatsuo Inoue (Professor\, Graduate Schools for Law and Politics\, University of Tokyo\, Japan)\nHongmei Qu (Professor\, Department of Philosophy\, Jilin University\, China) \nChaired by Elizabeth Perry (Henry Rosovsky Professor of Government\, Harvard University; Director\, Harvard-Yenching Institute) \nOrganized by the Harvard-Yenching Institute \nThe roundtable is held in conjunction with the publication of Encountering China: Michael Sandel and Chinese Philosophy (Harvard University Press\, January 2018\, https://www.hup.harvard.edu/catalog.php?isbn=9780674976146). In the book\, leading scholars of Chinese philosophy explore points of contact between Michael Sandel’s work and the Confucian and Daoist traditions. In a concluding chapter\, Professor Sandel replies to their commentaries. This roundtable will seek to elaborate and expand upon this dialog between Western and Chinese political thought\, and to assess the response to Sandel’s work in China\, Japan\, and South Korea. Following the roundtable\, a book signing by Professor Sandel will be held in the CGIS concourse\, with copies of the book available to purchase. \nhttps://harvard-yenching.org/events/roundtable-discussion-encountering-china-michael-sandel-and-chinese-philosophy \n

SUMMARY:Colin P.C. Jones - Searching for a Social Order: The Sociology and Afterlives of Law in Japanese-Occupied China
DESCRIPTION:Speaker: Colin P.C. Jones\, Reischauer Institute Postdoctoral Fellow (Ph.D. Japanese History\, Columbia 2017)\nModerator: Andrew Gordon\, Lee and Juliet Folger Fund Professor of History\, Harvard University \nThis talk connects the legal history of the Japanese empire to the broader history of legal and social thought in the twentieth century. It examines the design\, execution\, and long afterlife of the North China Rural Customary Law Survey. Conducted from 1940 to 1944\, the survey was unprecedented for the ethnographic approach it took to its subject. Through interviews with Chinese villagers\, its researchers sought to uncover the intricate web of customary practices\, associational norms\, and religious beliefs that coordinated and regulated daily life independently of the state—or what survey’s designer\, Suehiro Izutarō\, called the “living law.” I trace this concept to its inception in Habsburg Central Europe and show how\, through its implementation in northern China\, it continues to shape our understanding of East Asian legal systems. \n

SUMMARY:Andrew Field - Nightlife in Shanghai: From the Jazz Age 1920s to the Current Age of the Super-Wealthy
DESCRIPTION:Speaker: Andrew Field\, Associate Dean of Undergraduate Programs\, Duke Kunshan University\, China \nIn the 1920s\, Shanghai became known worldwide for its nightlife as the city learned to dance to the rhythms of the American jazz age. The war years of the 1940s and the Communist Revolution of the 1950s put an end to the city’s dance halls and cabarets\, but the reform era of the 1980s saw the revival of dancing in the city. By the 1990s\, more sophisticated discos\, bars\, and lounges arose in the city as it internationalized. More recently\, a caste of super-wealthy Chinese known as fu er dai (“wealthy second generation”) has taken over the most exclusive club spaces in the city\, spending thousands of dollars per night\, and signifying the growing gap between wealth and poverty in China. \nAndrew Field (B.A.\, Asian Studies\, Dartmouth College; Ph.D.\, East Asian Languages and Cultures\, Columbia University) has taught at universities in America\, Australia\, China\, and Korea\, and is currently Associate Dean of Undergraduate Programs at Duke Kunshan University in China. He is the author of Shanghai’s Dancing World: Cabaret Culture and Urban Politics (2010) and Mu Shiying: China’s Lost Modernist (2014)\, and co-author with James Farrer of Shanghai Nightscapes: A Nocturnal Biography of a Global City (2015).
