SUMMARY:Manoranjan Mohanty - China’s Transformation: The Success Story and the Success Trap
DESCRIPTION:Speaker: Prof. Manoranjan Mohanty\, Council for Social Development\, New Delhi\nChair: Prof. Elizabeth Perry\, Harvard University/Harvard-Yenching Institute \nThe book provides insights into the economic and social transformation that China has undergone from 1979 to the present. Based on the author’s research in China for over three decades\, China’s Transformation: The Success Story and the Success Trap shows how its ‘reform and open door’ policy evolved and helped achieve tremendous economic success. However\, it also generated serious social and environmental problems. The book presents that the consequences of this success story of growth are so strong that it has been difficult for China to change its main development path to achieve a desirable level of equity and sustainability. The author describes this as the ‘success trap’ that China is currently grappling with. The author argues that China’s reform path is grounded in the premises of the European Industrial Revolution backed by strong sociopolitical forces at home\, indicating that a major change in the development path is unlikely. However\, all indications point to a strong and prosperous China as a rising world power in the coming decades\, trying to cope with the sociopolitical problems in its own way. \nCo-sponsored by the Harvard-Yenching Institute and the Fairbank Center for Chinese Studies \nhttps://harvard-yenching.org/events/manoranjan-mohanty-book-talk-china-s-transformation-success-story-and-success-trap \n  \n

SUMMARY:William Overholt - Book Talk: "China’s Crisis of Success"
DESCRIPTION:Speaker: William Overholt\, Senior Fellow\, Harvard University Asia Center \nChina’s Crisis of Success provides new perspectives on China’s rise to superpower status\, showing that China has reached a threshold where success has eliminated the conditions that enabled miraculous growth. Continued success requires re-invention of its economy and politics. The old economic strategy based on exports and infrastructure now piles up debt without producing sustainable economic growth\, and Chinese society now resists the disruptive change that enabled earlier reforms. While China’s leadership has produced a strategy for successful economic transition\, it is struggling to manage the politics of implementing that strategy. After analysing the economics of growth\, William H. Overholt explores critical social issues of the transition\, notably inequality\, corruption\, environmental degradation\, and globalisation. He argues that Xi Jinping is pursuing the riskiest political strategy of any important national leader. Alternative outcomes include continued impressive growth and political stability\, Japanese-style stagnation\, and a major political-economic crisis.

SUMMARY:Victor Seow - Energy Transitions amidst Regime Change: Mining Coal in the Early People’s Republic of China
DESCRIPTION:Speaker: Victor Seow\, Assistant Professor\, Department of the History of Science\, Harvard University \nThe decade after the revolution of 1949 witnessed a China that was being made anew. The material transformation of society and economy that had been the goal of preceding regimes was realized to a hitherto unseen degree in the industrial edifice raised by the socialist state. This was an achievement that rested upon a bedrock of fossil fuel energy. In line with centrally directed plans\, the coal that lay in abundance in multiple regions across China was unearthed in mounting quantities\, as Chinese engineers led the excavation of new mines and the introduction of new technologies and techniques\, from the longwall system to hydraulic mining. Yet for all the effort in pushing production\, supply did not seem to be able to catch up with demand\, and by the late 1950s\, China seemed to be facing a coal shortage. Part of the problem was that of thermal inefficiency: for most industrial processes\, Chinese engines\, furnaces\, and boilers were burning more coal than their British and American counterparts. This talk examines efforts by Chinese planners to expand coal output as part of what they saw as a race to outpace capitalist countries in industrial development\, and shows that it was not so much a failure of technology but the fixation on sheer volume that led to a low quality of coal produced\, which in turn compromised the efficiency of the socialist industrial enterprise. \nSponsored by Harvard-China Project on Energy\, Economy and Environment\, Harvard Paulson School of Engineering and Applied Sciences

SUMMARY:Amelia Ying Qin - Seeking Patterns: Close and Distant Readings of Two Collections of Tang 唐 (618-907) Dynasty Anecdotes
DESCRIPTION:Speaker: Amelia Ying Qin\,  An Wang Post Doctoral Fellow\, Fairbank Center for Chinese Studies \nThis study takes two different approaches—close and distant readings—to the hidden patterns in two anecdote collections. The Songchuang zalu 松牕雜錄 (Miscellaneous Notes under the Pine Window) is a small Tang 唐 (618-907) collection of sixteen anecdotes that claims its accounts are both “particularly unusual” 特異 and “definitely true” 必實. Close reading reveals it to be a text containing hidden structures with an emphasis on “the unusual” as a concept bearing discursive weight for the purpose of subtle political criticism. The intertwined ideas of unusualness and truthfulness define each other and form a discourse of “the unusual” that provides an interpretive framework for the collection’s core anecdotes. These accounts\, when read closely within this framework\, point to signs that foreshadow the Tang’s decline while voicing concerns over its end and directing muted criticism at the irresponsible Tang rulers. The Tang yulin 唐語林 (Forest of Conversations on the Tang)\, on the other hand\, is a collection of over eleven hundred anecdotes about Tang historical figures\, events\, and customs compiled during the Northern Song 北宋 (960-1127). Its contents were selectively recycled from fifty or so earlier miscellanies of various sizes\, and both the content and structure of the collection suffered from a hectic textual history of loss and restoration. To examine a text of this nature and size\, this study experiments with the approach of distant reading to explore potential patterns in its content\, structure\, and selective use of source material. In juxtaposing these two texts examined with different methods\, the speaker hopes to reflect upon the mercurial and ephemeral nature of anecdotal memories of the past\, as well as the possible ways of reading and understanding such memories. \nAmelia Ying Qin graduated from the University of Wisconsin-Madison\, with a Ph.D. in Chinese literature (2013) from the Department of East Asian Languages and Literature and an M.A. (2010) from the School of Library and Information Studies. Prior to her study in Madison\, she also completed degrees at the University of Rhode Island and Fudan University in Shanghai\, China. Her current research interest is in the relationship and dynamics between cultural memory and historiography in Chinese anecdotal and historical narratives during the time period of 600-1300. She is also the translator of two chapters of The Grand Scribe’s Records. Her teaching interests include Chinese language of all levels\, survey of Chinese literature\, special topics in modern and classical Chinese literature\, as well as comparative topics in East Asian literature and cultures.

SUMMARY:Gufran Beig - Anatomy of Extreme Pollution Event in a Megacity: Delhi
DESCRIPTION:Speaker: Gufran Beig\, Project Director\, System of Air Quality Forecasting and Research\, Indian Institute of Tropical Meteorology\, Ministry of Earth Sciences\, Government of India; Fellow\, Indian Academy of Sciences; World Meteorological Organization Norbert Gerbier-Mumm International Award \nA Harvard-China Project Research Seminar \nMegacities are engines of growing pollution. Delhi is cursed by its geography to be prone to various meteorological phenomena acting in different times of the year that contribute to high pollution levels. Climate change is poised to worsen air quality and by the end of the century\, more than half of the world’s population will be exposed to increasingly stagnant atmospheric conditions\, with the tropics and subtropics bearing the brunt of the poor air quality. India’s capital\, Delhi\, is reported to be one of the megacities in the world that are worst affected by asthma. Delhi experienced an environmental emergency in early November 2017 when levels of toxic PM2.5 particles surpassed WHO guidelines by 25 times for a prolonged period of time (a week). In this talk\, we will demonstrate the role that monsoon dynamics played in linking and mixing dust emitted from a large\, natural dust storm\, 3000km away in the Middle East\, with smoke from agriculture fires in northwest India. Understanding the multi-scale nature of such events is important for improving our abilities to forecast these events and developing effective air quality management strategies. \nSponsored by China Project\, Harvard Paulson School of Engineering and Applied Sciences
