SUMMARY:Robert Ross: ​Wedge Strategies and Alliance Politics: Chinese Coercion and the U.S.-Philippine Alliance
DESCRIPTION:Register now\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nSpeaker: Robert S. Ross\, Professor of Political Science\, Boston CollegeModerator: James Robson\, James C. Kralik\, and Yunli Lou Professor\, Department of East Asian Languages and Civilizations; Harvard College Professor; Victor and William Fung Director\, Asia Center\, Harvard University \n\n\n\nThis talk examines China’s wedge strategy toward the U.S.-Philippine alliance during the presidency of Benigno Aquino III. Although the Philippine-China sovereignty dispute was the proximate cause of Chinese coercion\, it does not explain Chinese policy. Chinese policy evolution and the writings of Chinese scholars and think-tank analysts make clear that China’s foremost concern was that the Philippine’s defense cooperation with the United States in support of its sovereignty claims contributed to the U.S. “pivot” to Asia and to U.S. “containment” of China. China used its military and economic capabilities to undermine Philippine confidence in U.S. support and to weaken the Philippine economy\, thus driving a wedge between the Philippines and the United States and undermining the U.S. challenge to Chinese security. After the Philippines adjusted it alignment between China and the United States\, China eased its coercion and it used economic “rewards” to consolidate Philippine realignment. The talk concludes with a brief discussion of the implications of the Marcos\, Jr.\, presidency for U.S.-China competition and regional affairs. \n\n\n\nPresented via Zoom.

SUMMARY:Adrian Zenz - Xinjiang Update: What New Documents Tell Us About Beijing’s Evolving Internment Policy
DESCRIPTION:Read our blog post on the event: Xinjiang Update: Beijing’s Evolving Internment Policy \n\n\n\nSpeaker: Adrian Zenz\, Senior Fellow and Director in China Studies\, Victims of Communism Memorial Foundation \n\n\n\nModerator: Mark C. Elliott\, Vice Provost for International Affairs\, Mark Schwartz Professor of Chinese and Inner Asian History\, Harvard University \n\n\n\nSince the start of Beijing’s campaign of interning Uyghurs and other ethnic groups in its northwestern region of Xinjiang in re-education camps\, the most pertinent evidence on the nature and impact of these policies has come from public and internal (classified) government documents. However\, nearly all of this documentation was limited to latter (implementation-related) stages of the policy cycle\, leaving scholars in the dark about crucial aspects of the deliberations and decision-making processes behind the policies. Between late 2021 and mid-2022\, two important caches of new internal files have been made public\, including classified speeches by Xi Jinping and by Zhao Kezhi\, China’s former Minister of Public Security. This presentation seeks to elucidate what these new files can tell us about the evolution of Beijing’s policies in the region\, the role of the central government in the process\, and the potential scale of the campaign of mass internment. \n\n\n\nDr. Adrian Zenz is Senior Fellow and Director in China Studies at the Victims of Communism Memorial Foundation\, Washington\, D.C. (non-resident). His research focus is on China’s ethnic policy and Beijing’s campaign of mass internment\, securitization and forced labor in Xinjiang\, as well as ethnic minority education and labor programs in Tibet. Dr. Zenz is the author of Tibetanness under Threat and co-editor of Mapping Amdo: Dynamics of Change. He has played a leading role in the analysis of leaked Chinese government documents\, including the “China Cables\,” the “Karakax List\,” the “Xinjiang Papers\,” and the Xinjiang Police Files. Dr. Zenz has provided expert testimony to the governments of Germany\, France\, the United Kingdom\, Canada\, and the United States. He is a member of the Association of Asian Studies. He has published opinion pieces with Foreign Policy\, Foreign Affairs\, The New York Times\, and The Wall Street Journal. \n\n\n\n \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nVenue

SUMMARY:Urban China Series featuring Cai Meina - Legal Discrimination\, Contention Pyramid\, and Land Takings in China
DESCRIPTION:Zoom meeting link\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nSpeaker: Cai Meina\, University of Connecticut \n\n\n\nHow do land-dispossessed villagers protect their interests in a context where the legal framework discriminates against them? Contrary to the existing research that focuses on protests\, this research identifies negotiations as a strategy of the dispossessed to engage with local governments and improve their compensation arrangement. Negotiations are more frequent than petitions\, which are in turn more frequent than protests and violence. These negotiations focus on tailored local arrangements that are not specified in formal compensation policy – what I term “non-programmatic compensation.” Negotiations over non-programmatic compensation create a fragmented compensation policy regime that combines low\, stagnant\, and less locally diversified formal compensation standards with dynamic\, locality-specific\, and negotiated informal non-programmatic compensation. These findings draw on extensive fieldwork in 5 provinces (Chongqing\, Guangdong\, Jiangsu\, Zhejiang\, and Hebei)\, an original dataset of local land compensation policies\, and surveys of rural households and elites.  \n\n\n\nMeina Cai is Associate Professor of Political Science with a joint appointment of Asian/Asian American Studies Institute at the University of Connecticut. Her research interests are political economy\, institution and development\, and land politics and urbanization with an area focus on China. Her recent articles appear in World Development\, Journal of Peasant Studies\, Urban Studies\, and Land Use Policy. Her urbanization projects have been funded by Lincoln Institute of Land Policy and Chiang Ching-kuo Foundation among others.  \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nVenue

SUMMARY:How Soy Sauce Shapes Modern China: The Power of an Everyday Food - 2023 Fairbank Center Reischauer Lecture Series featuring Angela KC Leung\, Night Three\, "Soy Sauce in Crisis: China’s First Engagement with Technoscience"
DESCRIPTION:Register for hybrid zoom attendance\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nRead our blog post on this series of lectures: What Soy Sauce Can Tell Us About History\, Politics—and Chinese Identity \n\n\n\nThe lecture series examines the cultural and political meaning of soy sauce by tracing its long trajectory from an obscure elite condiment to a mundane\, everyday food in the modern period. The condiment acquired in the process the unique power of forging shared identities – familial\, communitarian\, regional and national\, becoming more recently a heritage food in different Chinese societies today. Its status as a popular\, necessary daily food endowed it with social and economic values that have made its production an integral part of state building for successive regimes – Qing\, Republican\, Socialist\, post-Socialist. Since the early 20th century\, soy sauce has been crafted with changing knowledge and techniques\, by experts in evolving institutions and enterprises\, and marketed to satisfy consumers’ shifting imaginations of their time\, community\, and environment.   \n\n\n\nTuesday\, March 28\, 2023\, 4:30pm Lecture 1: Becoming an Everyday Food: Soy Sauce in the High Qing PeriodThe explosion of soy sauce’s popularity as an everyday food in China is explained in the context of the mid-eighteenth-century integration of Manchuria\, which would become the world’s biggest soybean producer\, into the Qing Empire at the zenith of its political power. The development changed urban landscapes\, shaped everyday life and forged new urban identities.  \n\n\n\nWednesday\, March 29\, 2023\, 4:30pmLecture 2: The Power of a Malleable Everyday Food: Soy Sauce in Modern China Soy sauce as a super connector gained enormous power in the 19th and early 20th centuries:  It was made and offered to tighten bonds within lineages\, strengthen native place relationships\, and diplomatic ties. It symbolized communitarian and national solidarity\, hospitality and pride. Such immense power imbued the condiment with significant economic value.  \n\n\n\nThursday\, March 30\, 2023\, 4:30pmLecture 3: Soy Sauce in Crisis: China’s First Engagement with Technoscience Under deteriorating governance and facing the influx of industrial Japanese products\, Chinese soy sauce production was to be transformed as part of the state program of industrial modernization. The process produced a first generation of food scientists and technocrats navigating between codified scientific knowledge and traditional practices based on embodied skills\, an approach still valid in the 21st century when heritage sauces are being constructed. \n\n\n\nAngela Ki Che Leung is Chair Professor of History\, Joseph Needham-Philip Mao Professor in Chinese History\, Science and Civilization at the Hong Kong Institute for the Humanities and Social Sciences\, University of Hong Kong since 2011.

SUMMARY:Urban China Series featuring Adam Liu: Small Banks\, Big Politics: The Cause and Consequences of Bank Proliferation in China
DESCRIPTION:zoom meeting link\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nSpeaker: Adam Liu\, National University of Singapore \n\n\n\nThe Henan bank protest\, the Evergrande crisis\, and the perennial local government debt issue in China all point to one thing: there’s something wrong with the country’s banking system and Beijing needs to fix it. In particular\, it needs to better regulate the numerous small banks that are now so intimately intertwined with much of China’s economic challenges. Beijing is working on it but it’s hard to do. This talk explains why. First\, the exponential proliferation of small banks in the past three decades is hardly a natural phenomenon of economic/financial development; it is the outcome of a grand historical central-local bargain that’s difficult for current central leaders to upend. Second\, and relatedly\, many small banks have become the dominant players in local banking markets and are thus a crucial pillar of local economic development. Tight regulation and excessive punishment will therefore hurt local growth further in this difficult time. Beijing will have to juggle. \n\n\n\nThis event series is made possible by the generous support of the MIT Sustainable Urbanization Lab\, the School of Community and Regional Planning at the University of British Columbia\, and the Harvard Fairbank Center for Chinese Studies. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nVenue

SUMMARY:Harvard Visual China Inaugural Graduate Symposium--"Luminosity in Chinese Art & Culture"
DESCRIPTION:Register now\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nFrom Prometheus the Fire-Bringer to myths of cosmogony\, light and luminosity is an enduring metaphor in human history. In modern science\, light and luminosity are understood as matters of wavelength and energy. Yet in the Chinese context\, luminosity is not confined to issues of the visual and visibility. In fact\, luminosity had long been associated with consciousness and vitality beyond the expiration of the physical body\, especially in connections with certain materials and objects. The Harvard Visual China Inaugural Graduate Symposium presents three panels on this topic: Panel 1: Visualizing Luminosity; Panel 2: Painting Luminosity; Panel 3: Luminous Jewels. \n\n\n\nMore information and registration: https://www.harvardvisualchina.com/hvc-2023-symposium-info-registration. \n\n\n\nThis event is sponsored by the Department of History of Art & Architecture\, the Abby Aldrich Rockefeller Innovation Fund\, and Harvard FAS CAMLab.  \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nVenue

SUMMARY:Rejuvenating Communism: Youth Organizations and Elite Renewal in Post-Mao China
DESCRIPTION:Register now\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nSpeaker: Jérôme Doyon\, Junior Professor at SciencesPo; author of Rejuvenating Communism: Youth Organizations and Elite Renewal in Post-Mao ChinaRespondent: Elizabeth Perry\, Henry Rosovsky Professor of Government at Harvard University; Director\, Harvard-Yenching Institute\,  \n\n\n\nWorking for the administration remains one of the most coveted career paths for young Chinese. “Rejuvenating Communism: Youth Organizations and Elite Renewal in Post-Mao China” seeks to understand what motivates young and educated Chinese to commit to a long-term career in the party-state and how this question is central to the Chinese regime’s ability to maintain its cohesion and survive. Jérôme Doyon draws upon extensive fieldwork and statistical analysis in order to illuminate the undogmatic commitment recruitment techniques and other methods the state has taken to develop a diffuse allegiance to the party-state in the post-Mao era. He then analyzes recruitment and political professionalization in the Communist Party’s youth organizations and shows how experiences in the Chinese Communist Youth League transform recruits and feed their political commitment as they are gradually inducted into the world of officials. As the first in-depth study of the Communist Youth League’s role in recruitment\, this book challenges the assumption that merit is the main criteria for advancement within the party-state\, an argument with deep implications for understanding Chinese politics today. \n\n\n\nLunch will be served for in-person attendees.  \n\n\n\nRegistration is required for both online and in-person attendees. Register at: https://hksexeced.tfaforms.net/f/event-registration?s=a1n4V000006EM8BQAW&c=7014V000002IyegQAC \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nVenue

SUMMARY:“Environment in Asia” Reunion with a Tribute to Robert Marks and Peter Perdue
DESCRIPTION:Register now\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nRead our blog posts on the event: Exploring How the Environment Shapes China’s History and Conference Examines Planning and China’s Rapidly Growing Cities \n\n\n\nOrganizer: Ling Zhang\, Boston College; Convener of the Environment in Asia series \n\n\n\nNote: Due to the limited capacity of the venue\, the symposium will be a closed-door event. The public may view the event by registering for a Zoom Webinar. Register at https://harvard.zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_Fs-4nrYSTzSqYM6OtpgPHw. \n\n\n\nThe “Environment in Asia” research series at the Fairbank Center for Chinese Studies is dedicated to promoting diverse environmental discourses and research methodologies within the field of Asian studies\, especially the field of Chinese studies. Since its founding in 2012\, the series has hosted dozens of lectures\, panel discussions\, conferences\, film screenings\, and art exhibitions. It has brought together scholars from various disciplinary and area studies backgrounds and has served as a platform to present their scholarship\, exchange ideas\, and form collaborations. \n\n\n\nThis symposium has two goals. First\, it honors two founding speakers and long-time supporters of the Environment in Asia series\, Professor Robert Marks and Professor Peter Perdue. It celebrates their life-long achievements as forerunners in the field of Chinese environmental history. Over the past four decades\, Professor Marks and Professor Perdue have been tirelessly committed to studying and writing environmental history as well as to mentoring students and junior colleagues. Their scholarship and services have profoundly shaped how we understand and practice Chinese environmental history. The symposium is a tribute to these intellectual leaders of ours and their lasting impact on our community. \n\n\n\nSecond\, as a reunion of the Environment in Asia series\, the symposium brings back some old friends of the series\, and it welcomes many new colleagues. More than celebrating the rich and eventful decade of the series\, the symposium invites these scholars from diverse fields and different generations to gather and reflect on our common endeavor: How do we research\, write\, and teach environmental issues as humanities and social scientific scholars\, and how do we promote environmental consciousness and model multi- and inter-disciplinary environmental scholarship in order to complicate and diversify the fields of Asian and Chinese studies\, which are dominated by humancentric concerns and practices? The symposium invites its participants to review what we as a community of environmental scholars have achieved; to assess what works and what doesn’t; to suggest different paths and new possibilities; to identify our shared challenges; and to propose exciting experiments. Through individual presentations and group conversations\, the symposium seeks to facilitate mutual understanding and mutual learning within our environmental-studies community. It aims to strengthen the community’s bond and to further its growth as an important\, indispensable subfield of Asian and Chinese studies. \n\n\n\nSchedule \n\n\n\n8:45–9:00 Welcome (Ling Zhang and Mark Wu) \n\n\n\n9:00–10:30 Tigers\, Rice\, and the Dongting Lake: The Journeys toward Environmental History (Moderator: Ling Zhang) \n\n\n\n10:30–10:45 Break \n\n\n\n10:45–12:45 Researching the Environment (Moderator: Arunabh Ghosh) \n\n\n\n12:45–13:30 Lunch \n\n\n\n13:30–15:00 Writing the Environment (Moderator: Victor Seow) \n\n\n\n15:00–15:15 Break \n\n\n\n15:15–16:45 Teaching the Environment (Moderator: Brian Lander) \n\n\n\n16:50¬–17:10 Closing (Robert Marks\, Peter Perdue\, and Ling Zhang) \n\n\n\nParticipants \n\n\n\nClark Alejandrino (Trinity College)Nicole Barnes (Duke University)David Bello (Washington and Lee University)Tristan Brown (MIT): “Laws of the Land: Fengshui and the State in Qing Dynasty China”Wesley Chaney (Bates College)Chris Coggins (Bard College at Simon Rock)Bradley Camp Davis (Eastern Connecticut State University)Alexander F.

SUMMARY:Japan’s Real Estate Crisis and Implications for China
DESCRIPTION:Register now\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nSpeakers:Takeo Hoshi\, Professor and Dean of the Graduate School of Economics\, University of TokyoPaul Sheard\, former Senior Fellow\, Harvard Kennedy School and author of The Power of MoneyWei Xiong\, Professor of Economics\, Princeton University \n\n\n\nModerators:Richard Yarrow and Jinlin Li\, Mossavar-Rahmani Center for Business and Government\, Harvard Kennedy School \n\n\n\nIn the 1980s\, Japan’s economic growth represented up to a quarter of the world’s annual GDP growth. Much of Japan’s growth was tied to an extraordinary growth in property markets. By 1990\, residential land prices in Tokyo and Osaka were nearly three times what they were in 1985\, Japanese property taken together was valued at four times the value of real estate in the US\, and real estate and construction were contributing over a fifth of Japan’s GDP. In 1991\, Japan’s real estate growth came to a halt. As China addresses bubbles and financial risks in its real estate sector\, could China’s economy face similar outcomes? What can China learn from the path of the real estate sector in Japan? \n\n\n\nPlease join experts on Japan’s and China’s financial systems and real estate sectors for this discussion. The event features Paul Sheard and Takeo Hoshi discussing factors around the rise and fall of Japan’s property market in the 1980s and 1990s\, and how Japan could have differently managed its real estate boom and crisis. Wei Xiong will then discuss parallels and differences with conditions in China. \n\n\n\nThis event is the third in a series on China’s real estate sector and its broader economic effects. \n\n\n\nHosted by the Mossavar-Rahmani Center for Business and Government and Fairbank Center for Chinese Studies at Harvard University.Presented via Zoom.

SUMMARY:Urban China Series featuring Tao Ran - The China Model of Growth and Urbanization 
DESCRIPTION:Zoom Meeting Link\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nSpeaker: Tao Ran\, The Chinese University of Hong Kong (Shenzhen) \n\n\n\nThis talk outlines a holistic analytical framework for China’s current growth and urbanization model\, as well as its political and economic background and consequences. Tao Ran argues that China has developed an investment-driven and export-oriented growth and urbanization model since the mid-1990s. Under this model\, state-owned banks\, upstream state-owned enterprises\, and local governments have maintained administrative monopolies in the financial sector\, the upstream manufacturing and non-financial high-end service sector\, and urban commercial & residential land development respectively. At the same time\, the Chinese central and local governments have engaged in a two-tier international and domestic race to the bottom to support market competition in consumer goods production by private firms. This has significant implications for China’s further growth and development.    \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nVenue

SUMMARY:Grey zones: Opium Trade\, Migrations\, and Empires in Central and Northeast Asia\, 1900s-1930s
DESCRIPTION:watch on youtube live\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nSpeaker: Niccolò Pianciola\, Associate Professor of History\, University of PaduaModerator: Nargis Kassenova\, Senior Fellow; Director\, Program on Central Asia\, Davis Center for Russian and Eurasian Studies \n\n\n\nBy comparing the border area between Turkestan and Xinjiang with the region in the Russian Far East bordering Manchuria\, the talk will explore how the cross-border opium economy connected the Tsarist Empire and then the USSR to China and to the larger global opium market. It will also highlight the ambiguous status between legality and illegality in which opium remained during this period of imperial competition and state collapse\, and the contradictions in both Tsarist and early Soviet rule of these two key Asian borderlands. \n\n\n\nAlso available on YouTube Live.
