SUMMARY:Workers and Change in China: Resistance\, Repression\, Responsiveness
DESCRIPTION:Speakers:\nManfred Elfstrom\, Assistant Professor of Political Science\, University of British Columbia.\nYao Li\, Assistant Professor\, Department of Sociology and Criminology and Law\, University of Florida \nModerator: Anthony Saich\, Director\, Ash Center for Democratic Governance and Innovation; Daewoo Professor of International Affairs\, Harvard Kennedy School of Government \nStrikes\, protests\, and riots by Chinese workers have been rising over the past decade. The state has addressed a number of grievances\, yet has also come down increasingly hard on civil society groups pushing for reform. Why are these two seemingly clashing developments occurring simultaneously? Manfred Elfstrom uses extensive fieldwork and statistical analysis to examine both the causes and consequences of protest. The book adopts a holistic approach\, encompassing national trends in worker–state relations\, local policymaking processes and the dilemmas of individual officials and activists. Instead of taking sides in the old debate over whether non-democracies like China’s are on the verge of collapse or have instead found ways of maintaining their power indefinitely\, it explores the daily evolution of autocratic rule. While providing a uniquely comprehensive picture of change in China\, this important study proposes a new model of bottom-up change within authoritarian systems more generally. \nPresented via Zoom\nRegister at: https://harvard.zoom.us/webinar/register/9016334418370/WN_kJ-DOLoORpel9R4nqRf0sg

SUMMARY:Yangyang Cheng - Those Who Fall Behind Get Beaten Up: Can Science Build a Strong China?
DESCRIPTION:Speaker: Yangyang Cheng\, Postdoctoral Fellow\, Yale Law School; Columnist at SupChina. \nFrom the last Chinese empire to the current People’s Republic\, generations of politicians and intellectuals have sought advanced science and technology to build a strong China. They pondered the relationship between East and West\, tradition and modernity\, national allegiance and cosmopolitan ideals. Their efforts have shaped the path of China’s development and mapped the contours of Chinese identity. \nIn this talk\, I will trace their accomplishments and regrets\, as well as lessons for today\, through the lives of two men from my hometown of Hefei\, born a century apart. One was late Qing’s most revered statesman. The other is one of the first two Nobel laureates from China. As the role of science and technology becomes one of the most contentious issues in U.S.-China relations\, their stories teach about the forces that propelled China’s rise\, the ways lives can be squeezed by geopolitics\, and the risks of using science for state power. \nYangyang Cheng is a particle physicist and essayist. Her writings have appeared in The New York Times\, MIT Technology Review\, and ChinaFile\, among other publications. She is currently a postdoctoral fellow at Yale Law School and a columnist at SupChina.| \nPresented via Zoom\nRegistration Required\nRegister at: https://asiacenter.harvard.edu/events/those-who-fallbehind-get-beaten-up-can-science-build-a-strong-china-1454 \nPart of the Science and Technology in Asia Seminar Series

SUMMARY:Meaningful Ageing: Shaping a Better Future for China’s Elderly
DESCRIPTION:Monday\, June 21\, 2021 – 8:30-10:30 PM EDT\nTuesday\, June 22\, 2021 – 8:30-10:30 AM EDT \nThe challenges presented by the ageing of China’s population are vast and complex. Not only does ageing have major impacts on labor supply\, savings\, economic growth and social and family relationships\, ageing also necessitates re-imagining social systems—such as healthcare\, eldercare\, pension and housing—in order to sustainably support the elderly population in ageing well and living a meaningful life in China. The government has made confronting these challenges a national policy priority\, as seen in the 14th Five-Year Plan. The prominence of ageing in this national policy planning blueprint and the issue’s inclusion in subsequent talks by senior policymakers signify its importance for ensuring sustainable economic and social development into the future. \nThis event\, hosted by the Harvard China Health Partnership and Fairbank Center for Chinese Studies\, seeks to develop new and innovative ideas to help China develop a health and eldercare system to meet the needs of its ageing population in light of demographic shifts. Over multiple sessions\, we will assemble an interdisciplinary group of experts to share their ideas\, research and practical experience that could be adapted to the Chinese cultural\, social and institutional contexts. \nFor a complete agenda and speaker list\, click here. \nPresented via Zoom\nRegistration Required\nRegister at: https://harvard.zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_-NZAPfx1Q5C72MMlwExV_Q

SUMMARY:Africa-Asia Roundtable – Pandemics: Surveillance\, Preparedness\, and Response
DESCRIPTION:The outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic has brought a global focus on pandemic surveillance\, preparedness\, and response. As a result of the 2014 – 2016 Ebola outbreak\, the World Bank invested in the Regional Disease Surveillance Systems Enhancement (REDISSE) Program. Thirteen countries in West and Central Africa have received a $200 million funding commitment “to prevent\, detect\, and respond to the threat of emerging and epidemic-prone diseases.” In addition to funding\, the program has provided for intra-country cooperation on detecting and preventing pandemics as well as regional lab networks and training opportunities. More recently\, the Africa CDC  has spearheaded continental efforts to advance various elements of  detection and response to various health threats\, with notable success related to COVID-19. Such programs are examples of how regional and global cooperation designed to respond to an infectious disease outbreak can be leveraged in future pandemics. \nChina has promised the delivery of its Sinopharm vaccine to countries in Africa\, with 200\,000 doses arriving in Senegal and another 200\,000 in Zimbabwe. While the commitments fall far short of the 1.4 billion doses that will be needed to reach herd immunity in Africa\, China’s vaccine distribution has moved alongside the WHO-endorsed COVAX plan (to which China will also contribute 10 million vaccines). India has also been a contributor to global vaccine distribution\, both through COVAX and other direct supplies to the global south\, distributing more than 60 million doses. The scrambling for vaccines from the global north highlights a disparity in equitable access to vaccines\, raising questions about intellectual property and the possibilities for local production. \nOver two days\, we will convene four panels to further explore questions around vaccines and vaccine development\, technology transfer\, capacity building\, and global cooperation strategies for combating pandemics. What lessons can the world learn from Africa’s response to previous epidemics/pandemics including Ebola and HIV/AIDS and the current COVID-19 pandemic? What is the role of global cooperation between Africa-Asia\, and China-India-Africa in particular? Is the COVID-19 crisis and response\, including vaccine development and distribution\, an opportunity for a new era of global cooperation? \nFor more information\, visit the roundtable website. \nPresented via Zoom\nRegistration Required\nRegister at: https://harvard.zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_GINBfEO1QemYZkoYbyIGhQ

SUMMARY:Lu Mai - The Chinese Dream and Ordinary Chinese People
DESCRIPTION:Speaker: Lu Mai\, Vice-Chairman\, China Development Research Foundation (CDRF) \nDiscussants:\nJason Furman\, Aetna Professor of the Practice of Economic Policy\, Harvard Kennedy School\nWinnie Yip\, Professor of the Practice of Global Health Policy\, Harvard T.H. Chan School of Public Health; Acting Director\, Fairbank Center for Chinese Studies \nModerator: Anthony Saich\, Director\, Ash Center for Democratic Governance and Innovation and Daewoo Professor of International Affairs\, Harvard Kennedy School \nLu Mai’s book The Chinese Dream and Ordinary Chinese People explores the lives of 40 ordinary people in an effort to answer a key question: What is the “China Dream”? The book tracks the journeys of individuals selected from each generation since the 1930’s and identifies three driving forces motivating their lives and dreams: autonomy\, self-awareness\, and hard work\, along with family and social support as further important factors. These stories also reveal the ways in which significant national changes created differences in the interviewees’ dreams and experiences in pursuing them. The book chronicles how the future of an individuals is closely linked to the future of the country\, and how a bright future for the country can mean a good life for all. The study outlines the ways in which people’s longing for a better life is the basis and a central element of the Chinese Dream. \nLu Mai is Vice-Chairman of the State Council’s China Development Research Foundation (CDRF)\, and previously served as General Secretary for over two decades. Mr. Lu has extensive experience working on rural reform efforts in China\, having served as Director of Experimental Area Office for Rural Reform\, Research Center for Rural Development of the State Council in the late 1980’s and leading a number of related research projects for the World Bank and the Asian Development Bank. Mr. Lu earned his B.A. in economics from Beijing College of Economics in 1982\, and his M.A. in public administration from John F. Kennedy School of Government at Harvard University in 1991. \nPresented via Zoom\nRegistration Required\nRegister at: https://ash.harvard.edu/event/book-talk-chinese-dream-and-ordinary-chinese-people

DESCRIPTION:Harvard Fairbank Center for Chinese Studies · A Sense of Purpose? 2021 Annual Reischauer Lecture with Rana Mitter\, Part 3\nRead the transcript of the event here. \nSpeaker: Rana Mitter\, Professor of the History and Politics of Modern China\, St. Cross College\, University of Oxford \nDiscussant: Arunabh Ghosh\, Associate Professor of History\, Harvard University \nLecture 3 of 3: A Sense of Purpose?\nSome states have always maintained a sense that they have a mission in the world well beyond the maintenance of domestic order\, the United States\, France and Britain among them. Japan\, China and the Koreas also inherited a strong sense of purpose in the modern era\, from Meiji modernization to Mao’s “Three Worlds” and the Belt and Road Initiative\, ideas drawing on the longer past – yet the definition of that purpose has been in constant flux. What defines East Asia’s sense of purpose today\, can we speak of it in regional terms\, and how does it relate to its long history of aspiration to be an intellectual and moral exemplar? \nRana Mitter is Professor of the History and Politics of Modern China\, and a Fellow of St Cross College at the University of Oxford. He is the author of several books\, including China’s War with Japan: The Struggle for Survival\, 1937-1945 (Penguin\, 2013)\, [US title: Forgotten Ally] which won the 2014 RUSI/Duke of Westminster’s Medal for Military Literature\, and was named a Book of the Year in the Financial Times and Economist. His latest book is China’s Good War: How World War II is Shaping a New Nationalism (Harvard\, 2020). His recent documentary on contemporary Chinese politics “Meanwhile in Beijing” is available on BBC Sounds.  He is co-author\, with Sophia Gaston\, of the report “Conceptualizing a  UK-China Engagement Strategy” (British Foreign Policy Group\, 2020).  He won the 2020 Medlicott Medal for Service to History\, awarded by the Historical Association.  He is a Fellow of the British Academy and an Officer of the Order of the British Empire. \nThe Annual Reischauer Lecture Series is co-sponsored by the Fairbank Center for Chinese Studies\, Korea Institute\, Reischauer Institute of Japanese Studies\, and Harvard University Asia Center. \nListen to parts one and two of this three-part lecture below. \n \nHarvard Fairbank Center for Chinese Studies · How New is the New Era? 2021 Annual Reischauer Lecture with Rana Mitter\, Part 1\n \nHarvard Fairbank Center for Chinese Studies · An Era of Emotion? 2021 Annual Reischauer Lecture with Rana Mitter\, Part 2

SUMMARY:Reischauer Lecture Series featuring Rana Mitter — New Eras\, Old Stories: From May Fourth and Meiji to the Twenty-First Century “New Era” - Defining East Asia in the Age of Novelty\, Emotion and Purpose
DESCRIPTION:  \nHarvard Fairbank Center for Chinese Studies · An Era of Emotion? 2021 Annual Reischauer Lecture with Rana Mitter\, Part 2\nSpeaker: Rana Mitter\, Professor of the History and Politics of Modern China\, St. Cross College\, University of Oxford \nDiscussant: Jie Li\, John L. Loeb Associate Professor of the Humanities\, Harvard University \nLecture 2 of 3: An Era of Emotion?\nOne factor that defines Chinese engagement with the world today is its highly emotional character\, in terms of self-presentation that can move from saccharine to shrill at remarkable speed.  But emotion is not new – the use of the registers from exhilaration to depression defines the way that China\, Japan and the Koreas have chosen to present themselves over the past century\, whether through (often highly gendered) lenses of Asianism\, revolution\, martiality\, discourses of “national humiliation\,” or of global citizenship.  How much of this draws on emotional registers defined by modernity\, and how much from a repertoire shaped by a culture with much longer roots? \nRana Mitter is Professor of the History and Politics of Modern China\, and a Fellow of St Cross College at the University of Oxford. He is the author of several books\, including China’s War with Japan: The Struggle for Survival\, 1937-1945 (Penguin\, 2013)\, [US title: Forgotten Ally] which won the 2014 RUSI/Duke of Westminster’s Medal for Military Literature\, and was named a Book of the Year in the Financial Times and Economist.

DESCRIPTION:Harvard Fairbank Center for Chinese Studies · How New is the New Era? 2021 Annual Reischauer Lecture with Rana Mitter\, Part 1\nSpeaker: Rana Mitter\, Professor of the History and Politics of Modern China\, St. Cross College\, University of Oxford\n \nDiscussant: Odd Arne Westad\, Elihu Professor of History and Global Affairs\, Yale University \nLecture 1 of 3: How New is the New Era?\nChina’s leaders speak today of a “new era” – but East Asia has seen a range of “new eras” in the modern age\, defined by Japan\, China\, and outsiders who encountered both.  What defines that novelty and how familiar are the elements that form part of it?  The mid-twentieth century saw war\, social change and changing global encounters defined as moments when both China and Japan entered a “new” or “special” era in a global context.  What continuities and contrasts are there between the past and the present\, and what defines that “newness”? \nRana Mitter is Professor of the History and Politics of Modern China\, and a Fellow of St Cross College at the University of Oxford.

SUMMARY:David Mervart - The Missing Colonial Empire: Reading European Histories from within the Sinosphere
DESCRIPTION:Speaker: David Mervart\, Associate Professor in Japanese History\, Universidad Autónoma de Madrid (UAM)\, Spain\nModerator: David Howell\, Robert K. and Dale J. Weary Professor of Japanese History and Chair\, Dept. of East Asian Languages and Civilizations (EALC)\, Harvard University \nThis talk proposes to take stock of the conceptual vocabulary which early Japanese observers and commentators resorted to when trying to describe and understand the historical trajectory of what we now so self-evidently perceive as an ‘imperial’ expansion of the western powers’ dominion around the world. \nBy the late eighteenth century\, there existed a well-established convention to translate western modes of universal sovereignty (Kayzer\, Caesar\, Tsar\, Imperator) into the equally universalist nomenclature of the post-classical Chinese political theology. By extension\, it had become perfectly possible to speak of an ‘emperor-land’ (Ch: diguo; J: teikoku) as a general type of polity. Yet\, despite these conditions of translatability by means of such comparative political vocabulary\, curiously\, the expansion of European powers over the globe was not described in the language of Sino-Japanese equivalent of ‘empire’. \nGiven that Japanese commentators did not see the conquest and settlement of the non-European world as an instance of empire\, what conceptual vocabulary did they use? Which is really to ask: What class of known historical events serving as a general precedent did they suggest the exploits of the Occidentals to be an intuitive instance of? Querying a range of primary sources from the 1790s–1840s\, this talk will try to offer some answers while sketching an alternative\, historically documented way of articulating the ‘age of empire’. \nReischauer Institute Japan Forum Lecture Series \nPresented via Zoom\nRegistration Required\nRegister at: https://harvard.zoom.us/meeting/register/tJAuc-GorDMuHNOzItWEpM9zgGBqDpUMMhVq

SUMMARY:Panel Discussion: Maintaining Peace in China-India Relations
DESCRIPTION:Speakers:\nKishore Mahbubani\, Distinguished Fellow\, Asia Research Institute\, NUS\nSelina Ho\, Assistant Professor and Program Chair\, Lee Kuan Yew School of Public Policy\, National University of Singapore\nShen Dingli\, Professor\, Institute of International Studies\, Fudan University\nTarun Khanna\, Jorge Paulo Lemann Professor\, Harvard Business School; Faculty Director\, Lakshmi Mittal and Family South Asia Institute\, Harvard University\nKanti Bajpai\, Director\, Centre on Asia and Globlisation and Wilmar Professor of Asian Studies\, Lee Kuan Yew School of Public Policy\, National University of Singapore\nManjari Chatterjee Miller\, Associate Professor of International Relations\, Frederick S. Pardee School of Global Studies\, Boston University \nChairperson: James Crabtree\, Associate Professor in Practice\, Lee Kuan Yew School of Public Policy\, National University of Singapore \nThe China-India relationship is one of the keys to international security\, the future of Asia\, and the well-being of nearly 3 billion people. Since early May 2020\, border tensions between the two powers have underlined the potential for conflict. In 2017\, their armies faced off for 73 days. At the same time\, they have built a system of engagement designed to manage conflict and their larger rivalry. Their leaders meet regularly\, they hold talks on the border quarrel\, they have a series of confidence building measures\, and they trade and invest with each other. They also cooperate multilaterally. \nWhat are the drivers of the relationship? How can they manage conflict and rivalry? Are there cooperative steps forward\, now and looking ahead? Two years ago\, the Centre on Asia and Globalization in the Lee Kuan Yew School of Public Policy at the National University of Singapore\, set out to answer these and other vital questions by working with Routledge UK to produce the Routledge Handbook of China-India Relations. The book was published earlier this year. It assembled experts from China\, India\, Singapore\, other parts of Asia\, Australia\, Brazil\, Europe\, and the United States and has 35 chapters on a range of China-India issues. \nThis is a co-sponsored event hosted by the Lee Kuan Yew School of Public Policy at the National University of Singapore\, the Lakshmi Mittal and Family South Asia Institute\, the Harvard University Asia Center\, and the Fairbank Center for Chinese Studies. \nPresented via Zoom Webinar.\nRegistration Required.\nRegister at https://nus-sg.zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_Sjly22JCSZWfHPBcMn4ZTQ.
