SUMMARY:The Arnold Arboretum and China: A Century-Old Partnership
DESCRIPTION:Surrounded by our Bonsai & Penjing collection\, enjoy cocktails and hors d’oeuvres as you view Professor Yin Kaipu’s (Chengdu Institute of Biology) photographs which document a century of environmental change. Each of his images will be paired with a sister image taken in the same location by Arboretum explorer Ernest Henry Wilson. \nThen screen highlights from CCTV-9’s documentary “Chinese Wilson.” Professor Yin and Dr. Michael Dosmann\, Arboretum Keeper of the Living Collections\, will introduce the film in which they both star\, linking China and the Arboretum’s past with modern-day quests to preserve these locations and biodiversity. \nFor more information and to RSVP by Tuesday\, May 8\, email Janetta Stringfellow\, Director of Institutional Advancement\, at janetta_stringfellow@harvard.edu or call 617-384-5043. \nEarlier in the day\, we will be hosting a program of talks by our Chinese guests and Arnold Arboretum staff. They will include presentations on E.H. Wilson’s life\, photographs\, and the plants he brought to Boston. We welcome you to also join us for this program.  Please contact Janetta Stringfellow for details. \nPhoto: View of North Gate and part of Taning Hsien with river and city wall. Altitude 600 ft.

SUMMARY:From Eco-Threat to Green Leader: Narratives of China’s Environment
DESCRIPTION:Speaker: Elizabeth Lord\, An Wang Postdoctoral Fellow\, Fairbank Center for Chinese Studies \nThis talk aims to unpack dominant narratives about China’s environment\, including the discourse of crisis\, the idea that growth brings environmental protection and the potential that China can act as an environmental ‘vanguard’ at the international level. By analyzing how each of these narratives spatialize China’s environmental issues\, the objective is to unpack their assumptions and their geopolitical implications. These narratives show that environmental questions increasingly serve as a platform to ‘re-orientalize’ China\, or construct China as an environmental ‘other.’ \nElizabeth Lord is an An Wang Postdoctoral Fellow at the Fairbank Center. Her research seeks to understand China’s contemporary environment\, examine the relationship between environmental change and inequalities\, and theorize the production of environmental knowledge\, particularly in China. During her time at the Center\, Elizabeth will research the environmental narratives of China. She will evaluate the assumptions and implications of environmental narratives\, including those produced in China and outside of China.
