SUMMARY:Chinese Politics and Foreign Policy Workshop featuring Daniel Mattingly - The Party and the Gun: How the Military Shapes Elite Conflict in China
DESCRIPTION:Speaker: Daniel Mattingly\, Assistant Professor of Political Science\, Yale University \n\n\n\nHow do authoritarian leaders such as Xi Jinping consolidate political power? In this book\, I examine how control over the military has been crucial for elite and mass power struggles in Chinese politics. Drawing on new quantitative data on officers in the PLA\, and extensive qualitative evidence\, I trace how leaders’ ties to military officers help them fend off elite challengers\, consolidate power\, and ratchet up mass political control. \n\n\n\nDaniel Mattingly is Assistant Professor of Political Science at Yale University. He studies authoritarian politics and historical political economy with a focus on China. He is the author of The Art of Political Control in China (Cambridge University Press\, 2020)\, which examines how the Chinese state controls protests and implements ambitious social policies. It was named one of the best books of 2020 by Foreign Affairs and received the best book award from the Democracy and Autocracy Section of the American Political Science Association. His current book project examines the role of the military in China’s domestic and international politics. He received a Ph.D. from the University of California\, Berkeley\, and a B.A. from Yale University. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nVenue

SUMMARY:Wei Wei - Family Matters: Chinese Queer Politics Around the Rise of a Family-State
DESCRIPTION:Speaker: Wei Wei\, Professor of Sociology\, East China Normal University; HYI Visiting Scholar\, 2022-23 \n\n\n\nChair/Discussant: Michael Bronski\, Professor of the Practice In Media And Activism In Studies Of Women\, Gender\, And Sexuality\, Harvard University \n\n\n\nLGBT activism in mainland China\, based on the trajectory of identity politics\, faces increasing challenges from the state in recent years. Drawing insights from the scholarship of provincizing sexual citizenship and building on my decades-long researches into Chinese LGBT communities and activism\, the study situates such challenges and responses of the LGBT communities in the context of a rising Chinese family-state. It first lays out the bleak reality of civic participation and mobilization\, parallel to the ascendance of familist discourses\, that lead to the reconfiguration of Chinese queer politics. The engagement of LGBT communities to the Chinese family-state will be the focus of the talk. On the one hand\, the newly emerging LGBT parent families utilize the opportunities of policy change to strive for the state’s recognition; on the other hand\, family value as a shared rhetoric but open for contestation\, has been appropriated by the LGBT activism to negotiate with the state for survival. The talk concludes with a discussion of Chinese homonationalism in the making\, which may also have implication for queer politics beyond China. \n\n\n\nHarvard-Yenching Institute Visiting Scholar Talk \n\n\n\nMasks are required for all in-person audience members. Seating is limited. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nVenue

SUMMARY:China Humanities Seminar featuring Xin Wen - Curating a Museum of Stones: The “Forest of Stelae” (Beilin) and the Politics of the Past in Middle Period China
DESCRIPTION:register for hybrid zoom session\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nRead our blog post on the event: What a Museum of Tang Stones Says About How China Views its Past \n\n\n\nSpeaker: Xin Wen\, Assistant Professor of East Asian Studies and History\, Princeton University \n\n\n\nChang’an\, the capital of the Tang dynasty (618–907)\, was the largest city in the medieval world. The walled area of the city measured 84 square kilometers and the population likely reached one million. Unlike other pre-modern cities such as Rome and Tenochtitlan that contained many monumental stone buildings\, Chang’an’s walls\, palaces and houses were made of rammed earth and supported by wooden structures. As a result\, little remains of this mammoth city are still visible above ground now in modern Xi’an. The only monuments that survived the centuries of erosion after Chang’an’s abandonment in 904 were stone commemorative stelae that once accompanied almost every significant urban construction\, from palaces and monasteries to private residences and tombs. In this lecture\, I explore the diverse lives of these stone monuments in Chang’an during the Song\, the Jin and the Yuan dynasties. Some stones were destroyed or buried\, but others were re-carved and reused. A select few\, including the ninth century Stone Classics (shijing) and stelae bearing the handwriting of masters like Yan Zhenqing and Liu Gongquan\, were assembled at the Provincial School and the Confucius Temple. This collection of stone monuments began to take shape in the eleventh century and continued to expand and change in the subsequent centuries. By exploring the curatorial agenda\, maintenance personnel\, and visitor profiles of this collection\, I argue that its social and cultural roles in the urban landscape of post-Tang Chang’an resembled those of a modern museum. What this medieval museum exhibits is a uniquely literary reading of the history of the Tang dynasty\, and of China. \n\n\n\nXin Wen is an assistant professor of East Asian Studies and History at Princeton University. He is a historian of medieval China\, Central Asia\, and Eurasia. His first book is The King’s Road: Diplomacy and the Remaking of the Silk Road (Princeton University Press\, January 2022). He is now working on a second book\, an urban history of Chang’an after the fall of the Tang dynasty. \n\n\n\nThis talk is co-sponsored by the IAAS program. \n\n\n\nAlso available via Zoom.

SUMMARY:Urban China Series featuring Eli Friedman - The Urbanization of People: The Politics of Development\, Labor Markets\, and Schooling in the Chinese City
DESCRIPTION:Zoom meeting link\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nSpeaker: Eli Friedman\, Cornell University \n\n\n\nBeginning in 2014 China’s central government began pushing for more people to move to cities\, as they believe that increased urbanization will be necessary in advancing a new phase of economic development. But despite cities’ heavy reliance on the labor of rural migrants\, major institutional obstacles remain for those wishing to settle permanently. Perhaps the most important form of social exclusion for migrant workers is in education. Using the school system as a lens on the urbanization process\, I ask how local governments are managing flows of people into the city\, which groups are included in which places and why\, and what the socio-economic consequences of this approach are for Chinese society. My key empirical argument is that urban governments are providing access to public education precisely to those that need it least\, i.e. families with already high levels of economic\, cultural\, and social capital. The only option for excluded migrants is to enroll their children in resource-starved private schools\, which are sometimes subjected to closure and even coercive demolition. Elite cities have developed evaluative frameworks that allow them to fully incorporate those migrants judged to be of high quality\, while the “low-end populations” are shunted away to smaller\, less well-resourced locales with inferior public services. These conditions appear likely to reinforce existing social and spatial forms of inequality. \n\n\n\nEli Friedman is associate professor and chair of International and Comparative Labor at Cornell University. In addition to The Urbanization of People\, he is also the author of Insurgency Trap: Labor Politics in Postsocialist China. \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:Critical Issues Confronting China Series featuring Margaret Pearson - China’s Overseas Economic Push: Influence or Backlash
DESCRIPTION:Register for hybrid zoom attendance\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nRead our blog post on the event: Why the Narrative on China’s Rising Overseas Economic Influence Might be Inaccurate \n\n\n\nSpeaker: Margaret Pearson\, Dr. Horace E. and Wilma V. Harrison Distinguished Professor\, and Distinguished Scholar-Teacher in the Department of Government and Politics\, University of Maryland\, College Park \n\n\n\nModerator: Meg Rithmire\, F. Warren MacFarlan Associate Professor in the Business\, Government\, and International Economy Unit\, Harvard Business School. \n\n\n\nAs China’s economic activities expand abroad\, the consequences are controversial.  When do China’s economic contributions influence countries to align more closely with Beijing?  When do they generate political backlash and reduce Chinese influence?  What remains unknown?  Building off their recent Foreign Affairs article\, Margaret Pearson\, along with co-author and discussant Meg Rithmire\, discuss overseas reactions to Chinese expanding economic reach and the new China shock. \n\n\n\nMargaret Pearson is the Dr. Horace E. and Wilma V. Harrison Distinguished Professor\, and Distinguished Scholar-Teacher in the Department of Government and Politics\, University of Maryland\, College Park. Pearson’s research on China’s domestic politics focuses on state control of the economy\, central-local bureaucratic relations\, and environmental policy. On Chinese foreign policy\, Pearson’s ongoing projects focus on conceptualizations of and reactions to China’s overseas economic activities\, determinants of Beijing’s behavior in global institutions\, and climate change governance. She teaches courses on Chinese domestic politics and foreign policy\, and on comparative politics. She has held a Fulbright Research Fellowship at Beijing University. \n\n\n\nPearson received a Ph.D. in Political Science from Yale University and was an Associate Professor with tenure at Dartmouth College before moving to UMCP in 1996. Her books include China’s Strategic Multilateralism: Investing in Global Governance (with Scott Kastner and Chad Rector\, Cambridge University Press\, 2019)\, China’s New Business Elite: The Political Results of Economic Reform (University of California Press\, 1997)\, and Joint Ventures in the People’s Republic of China (Princeton University Press\, 1991). Her articles appear in Journal of Politics\, World Politics\, International Security\, Security Studies\, World Development\, Public Administration Review\, Governance\, Studies in Comparative International Development\, Review of International Political Economy\, China Journal\, China Quarterly\, and Journal of Contemporary China. \n\n\n\nAlso available via Zoom.

SUMMARY:26th Annual Harvard East Asia Society Conference - Mirrors: Contemplating Asia
DESCRIPTION:Register now\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThe 26th Annual Harvard East Asia Society Conference is coming up this week! The HEAS conference will take place in-person at Harvard’s CGIS South building on the 17th and 18th (Friday and Saturday) of February\, 2023. The conference is open to all\, and we encourage interested students and faculty to join us and participate in our panel discussions\, please help spread the word! Attendance is free of charge\, although if you would like to join us for dinner on Friday 2/17\, there will be a $10 fee\, and RSVP is required. \n\n\n\nThe theme of this year’s conference is: Mirrors: Contemplating Asia. The committee selected “mirrors” as a motif to invite reflection\, introspection\, retrospection\, discussion\, etc. about Asian Studies. That being said\, the papers were not limited to explicit studies of the mirror as an object or concept. We welcomed scholarship that contemplates Asia from fresh perspectives while also reflecting upon conventional frameworks and methodologies from various perspectives and disciplines. The conference schedule and paper abstracts of all the panelists are listed in our conference booklet\, which can also be accessed from our linktree at https://linktr.ee/harvard_heas. \n\n\n\nWe look forward to seeing you at the conference! \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nVenue

SUMMARY:Critical Issues Confronting China featuring Ma Jun - Can China Meet its Green Targets?
DESCRIPTION:Register for zoom attendance\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nSpeaker: Ma Jun\, Director\, Institute of Public & Environmental Affairs (IPE)Moderator: Daniel Schrag\, Sturgis Hooper Professor of Geology\, Professor of Environmental Science and Engineering\, Harvard University; Director\, Harvard University Center for the Environment \n\n\n\n***PLEASE NOTE EARLIER START TIME*** \n\n\n\nPresident Xi Jinping has sought to make the environment part of his lasting legacy. Since 2012\, China has drastically improved air pollution and developed a world-leading clean energy industry. In 2020\, Xi made a historic climate commitment\, setting a target for net-zero emissions by 2060. But with a stagnant economy\, Xi’s vision for phasing out fossil fuels is looking harder and harder to realize. How are industry leaders and officials at all levels coping with environmental challenges in the face of shrinking profits? Can China continue to lead the world\, or will the green dreams be deferred? \n\n\n\nMa Jun is one of China’s most influential environmentalists. As director of the Institute of Public & Environmental Affairs (IPE)\, he developed the China Water Pollution Map\, the first public database of water pollution information in China\, and works with private and state-sector industry to help them improve their environmental performance. \n\n\n\nMa also serves as environmental consultant for the Sinosphere Corporation. In the 1990s Ma became known as an investigative journalist\, working at the South China Morning Post from 1993 to 2000. There\, he began to specialize in articles on environmental subjects. He eventually became the chief representative of SCMP.com in Beijing. Ma’s 1999 book China’s Water Crisis\, China’s first major book on the subject\, has been compared to Rachel Carson’s Silent Spring. In 2006\, Time magazine named him one of the 100 most influential persons in the world. \n\n\n\nPresented via Zoom.

SUMMARY:Brandon Dotson - Marginal Comedy and the Production of Sutras in 9th-Century Dunhuang
DESCRIPTION:Speaker: Brandon Dotson\, Associate Professor and Thomas P. McKenna Chair of Buddhist Studies\, Georgetown University \n\n\n\nThere is something delightful about jottings and doodles in the margins of religious books. Perhaps it is the counterpoint that they offer to the generally serious and devout contents of the texts they abut. Perhaps it is also that marginalia emphasize the process of producing scripture\, and the human hands at work. Marginalia\, particularly marginal images\, are more familiar to studies of medieval European manuscripts than to Asian manuscript studies. This talk employs a selection of jottings and doodles created during the production of copies of the Tibetan Perfection of Wisdom Sutra in 100\,000 lines (Skt. Śatasāhasrikā Prajñāpāramitā; Tib. Yum ’bum pa) at Dunhuang from the late-820s to early 840s. Attending to scribes’ and editors’ fits of anger and devotion\, and also to their comedic doodles and scrawls\, it offers a glimpse into the personalities and lives of the Chinese and Tibetan men and women tasked with producing these sutras. It suggests that we appreciate their comedy both as a relief from the sometimes monotonous nature of their work\, and from the challenging conditions under which they labored. \n\n\n\nBrandon Dotson is associate professor and Thomas P. McKenna Chair of Buddhist Studies at Georgetown University. Besides Georgetown\, he has taught and researched at Oxford\, SOAS\, UCSB\, and Ludwig Maximilians University of Munich. He has also enjoyed research stays in China and Tibet. His work concerns ritual\, narrative\, and cosmology and the interaction of Buddhist and non-Buddhist traditions in the Tibetan cultural area. In particular\, he works closely with Tibetan Dunhuang manuscripts to explore the history and culture of the Tibetan Empire (7th to 9th centuries CE). \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nVenue

SUMMARY:Jie Gao - From Planned Economy to Planned Governance: Transformation of China’s Socialist Planning System
DESCRIPTION:Speaker: Jie Gao\, Assistant Professor\, Department of Political Science\, National University of Singapore; HYI Visiting Scholar\, 2022-23Discussant: Isabella Weber\, Assistant Professor of Economics\, University of Massachusetts\, Amherst \n\n\n\nIn China as in many other Communist countries\, the evolution of socialist planning has been central to the transition from a planned economy to a market-oriented one. Conventional wisdom argues that the market will “grow out of the plan” in tandem with the state’s gradual abandonment of the core features of the Soviet-style socialist planning system\, such as direct state allocation of materials. But have the scope and reach of the socialist planning system been reduced after the market grows out of the plan? This study argues that after three decades of marketization and decentralization reforms\, the socialist planning system has not shrunk. On the contrary\, it has been “reinvented\,” and its role in governing China has expanded. The transformation of the socialist planning system can be observed from the rise of a governance-by-targets regime during the past four decades—a phenomenon that performance targets\, many of which are derived from the party-state’s development plans\, are increasingly and ubiquitously used in managing social\, economic and political affairs. Put in this light\, China is moving from a planned economy to “planned governance”\, and during this process\, the reinvention of the socialist plan is happening alongside the growth of the socialist market\, rather than one superseding the other. \n\n\n\nHarvard-Yenching Institute Visiting Scholar Talk \n\n\n\nSeating is limited.

SUMMARY:Critical Issues Confronting China Series featuring Austin Strange - China’s Overseas Infrastructure: Bumps Along the Road to Global Influence?
DESCRIPTION:Register for hybrid zoom attendance\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nSpeaker: Austin Strange\, Assistant Professor of International Relations\, Department of Politics and Public Administration\, University of Hong Kong \n\n\n\nInfrastructure is at the heart of China’s growing\, controversial presence in global development. In addition to economic considerations\, infrastructure projects are important cogs in China’s pursuit of international influence. But do overseas infrastructure projects actually serve as effective influence tools for China? Examining a new dataset of 20th-century Chinese-financed projects along with new evidence on Chinese development finance since 2000\, we find that these projects have created mechanisms of influence as well as a source of risk for China and host countries. As a result\, contemporary Chinese global infrastructure has injected major uncertainty into China’s pursuit of international influence. Given questions about the Belt and Road Initiative\, what will China’s future global infrastructure look like? \n\n\n\nAlso presented on Zoom.

SUMMARY:Chinese Politics and Foreign Policy Workshop featuring Joseph Torigian - Succession Politics and the Xi Family in the 1980s: The "Three Types of People\," "Princelings\," and Center-Provincial Relations in Hebei and Fujian
DESCRIPTION:Speaker: Joseph Torigian\, Assistant Professor\, School of International Service\, American University \n\n\n\nAfter the Cultural Revolution\, a three-fold succession crisis loomed for the People’s Republic of China. First\, at the very top\, old party cadres dominated and were reluctant to relinquish their positions – especially after spending so much time with no power whatsoever during the Cultural Revolution. Second\, at the grassroots level\, the party faced the question of how to manage those young individuals who displayed questionable behavior during the Cultural Revolution but who\, at the time\, thought they were just enacting Mao’s wishes. Third\, while “princelings” – the offspring of top party officials – were seen by many old revolutionaries as the most trustworthy inheritors of the revolution\, as a group they suffered a poor reputation in society. Xi Zhongxun was the top figure on the secretariat managing these issues at the same time that his son Xi Jinping was rising the ranks in the 1980s\, but family ties were a double-edged sword for the young Xi Jinping. The situation was further complicated by disputes in Beijing and provincial capitals on how quickly to reform. Twice\, pro-reform leaders close to Xi Zhongxun were pushed out shortly after his son arrived to work in the provinces they led. Ultimately\, the story of the Xi family in this decade is a microcosm of how the party struggled to resolve the succession controversies bestowed by Mao. \n\n\n\nDr. Torigian studies the politics of authoritarian regimes with a specific focus on elite power struggles\, civil-military relations\, and grand strategy. His philosophy as a scholar is to select topics based on the widest gap between the under-utilization of available documents and their theoretical and empirical importance\, extract broader lessons\, and use those lessons to help us to understand two nations of crucial geopolitical importance – Russia and China. His research agenda draws upon comparative politics\, international relations\, security studies\, and history to ask big questions about the long-term political trajectories of these two states. In particular\, he is interested in how leaders in those countries create security against threats from within the elite\, their own people\, and other states. \n\n\n\nPreviously\, Torigian was a Stanton Fellow at the Council on Foreign Relations\, a Postdoctoral Fellow at Princeton-Harvard’s China and the World Program\, a Postdoctoral (and Predoctoral) Fellow at Stanford’s Center for International Security and Cooperation (CISAC)\, a Predoctoral Fellow at George Washington University’s Institute for Security and Conflict Studies\, an IREX scholar affiliated with the Higher School of Economics in Moscow\, a Fulbright Scholar at Fudan University in Shanghai\, and a research associate at the Council on Foreign Relations. His research has also been supported by the Stanford Center on International Conflict and Negotiation\, MIT’s Center for International Studies\, MIT International Science and Technology Initiatives\, the Critical Language Scholarship program\, and FLAS. I am also a Global Fellow at the History and Public Policy Program at the Wilson Center. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nVenue

SUMMARY:“Friends with No Limits?” The Future of China-Russia Relations
DESCRIPTION:Register for hybrid zoom attendance\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nRead our blog post on the event: Friends with “No Limits”? A Year into War in Ukraine\, History Still Constrains Sino-Russian Relations \n\n\n\nSpeakers:Andrew S. Erickson\, Professor of Strategy and Research Director\, U.S. Naval War College (NWC) China Maritime Studies Institute (CMSI); Visiting Professor\, Government Department\, Harvard University; Associate in Research\, Fairbank Center for Chinese Studies.M. Taylor Fravel\, Arthur and Ruth Sloan Professor of Political Science\, Director of the Security Studies Program\, MITEmily Holland\, Assistant Professor\, Russia Maritime Studies Institute\, U.S. Naval War CollegeAlexandra Vacroux\, Executive Director\, Davis Center for Russian and Eurasian Studies\, Harvard UniversityModerator: Mark Wu\, Henry L. Stimson Professor of Law\, Harvard Law School; Director\, Fairbank Center for Chinese Studies \n\n\n\nA year after the Russian invasion of Ukraine\, are China and Russia still “friends with no limits?” Since embracing that phrase\, Chinese President Xi Jinping has sought\, on occasion\, to publicly distance Beijing from Moscow. Is that actually happening\, or is this just a mirage?  Over the past year\, bilateral trade has more than doubled\, with China offering much-needed economic support to blunt the impact of Western sanctions. Could Chinese contributions undermine EU\, U.S.\, and G7 country sanctions and prolong Putin’s war? What are the prospects for Sino-Russian partnership in politics\, defense\, and intelligence? \n\n\n\nJoin us as leading experts examine how a new China-Russia axis is changing the global order. \n\n\n\nAndrew S. Erickson is Professor of Strategy and the Research Director in the U.S. Naval War College (NWC)’s China Maritime Studies Institute (CMSI).

SUMMARY:Contesting Territory\, Asserting Sovereignty beyond China’s Borders
DESCRIPTION:Register now\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nSpeakers:Darshana M. Baruah\, Fellow\, South Asia Program\, Carnegie Endowment for International PeaceAndrew Chubb\, Senior Lecturer in Chinese Politics and International Relations\, Lancaster UniversityIsaac B. Kardon\, Senior Fellow for China Studies\, Carnegie Endowment for International PeaceModerators:Nargis Kassenova\, Senior Fellow; Director\, Program on Central Asia\, Davis Center for Russian and Eurasian StudiesJames Evans\, Ph.D. Candidate in History\, Harvard University \n\n\n\nChina is increasingly assertive in its claims to territories along its borderlands. From renewed tensions with India in the Himalayas\, to the construction of military outposts on expanded islets in the South China Sea\, China’s pursuit of land and maritime claims display an unwillingness to compromise in its contestations over territory. Combined with its overseas expansion in military bases and civilian infrastructure\, China’s outbound activities indicate that Beijing will continue to assert claims over its near abroad and beyond to ensure its political\, military\, and economic security. Bringing together experts on the South China Sea\, the Indian Ocean\, and China’s overseas expansion\, this panel discussion asks how China’s adaptive understanding of sovereignty and territory interact with a growing assertiveness in its foreign affairs. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nVenue

SUMMARY:China Humanities Seminar featuring Ariel Fox - Every Man a Merchant: Plays of the Suzhou Circle and the Making of an Early Modern Economic Subject
DESCRIPTION:Register for Hybrid Zoom attendance\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nSpeaker: Ariel Fox\, Assistant Professor of Chinese literature\, University of Chicago. \n\n\n\nThis talk explores the way in which commercial identities are recast and recreated in the plays of the Suzhou circle\, a group of collaborative playwrights active in the mid-seventeenth century. In plays that center the denizens of the marketplace\, the Suzhou circle brings to the fore those who were often pointedly excluded from the roles of romantic lead\, Confucian exemplar\, or heroic adventurer. The refashioning of the merchant from anxiety-producing object to sympathetic subject appears across late Ming philosophical and literary discourses\, but more than just a genre-specific iteration\, these plays make use of the conventions of chuanqi drama to deconstruct and open up the nature and meaning of merchanthood. Through a reading of three plays—Zhan huakui 占花魁 (Winning the Prize Courtesan)\, Shiwu guan 十五貫 (Fifteen Strings of Cash)\, and Qingzhong pu 清忠譜 (Register of the Pure and Loyal)—I argue that the merchant is recuperated not only as a moral figure but as a universal and sublime one. At a moment of unprecedented commercial penetration\, such a transformation of the merchant-role becomes a site for the early modern subject to elaborate a more fluid self-conception. \n\n\n\nAlso via Zoom.

SUMMARY:The Stories We Tell: The Politics of History in China and the United States
DESCRIPTION:Register for hybrid zoom attendance\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nRead our blog post on the event: The Stories We Tell: Can the U.S. and China Reset their Conflicting Narratives? \n\n\n\nSpeakers:Jill Lepore\, David Woods Kemper ’41 Professor of American History and Affiliate Professor of Law\, Harvard University; Staff Writer\, The New YorkerWen YU\, Visiting Assistant Professor of History\, Boston College \n\n\n\nModerator: Michael Puett\, Walter C. Klein Professor of Chinese History and Anthropology\, Harvard University \n\n\n\nIf every nation needs a shared history\, what is our story\, and who gets to tell it? These questions haunt both the United States and China. \n\n\n\nThe revival of nationalist interpretations of American history has rekindled debates about the role of history in shaping the meaning of American identity and the country’s shared values. Since the creation of a shared history that begins with the nation’s founding ideals has been central to the construction of American identity\, debates about shared values in the United States are often inseparable from debates about the meaning of the past. Similarly\, in China throughout the 20th century and into the present\, the interpretation of Chinese national history has been the battlefield for defining the country’s identity and shared values. \n\n\n\nJill Lepore\, Professor of American History and author of “These Truths: A History of the United States\,” and Wen YU\, Visiting Assistant Professor of History at Boston College\, will examine the similarities between the ongoing debates in both countries. In a conversation moderated by Michael Puett\, Professor of Chinese History and Anthropology\, they will also explore the tensions between history as a nation-building story and as a mode of inquiry that allows for self-examination and the integration of the historical experiences of other societies. \n\n\n\nThe Fairbank Center Big Questions Initiative\, conceived by PhD candidate Benjamin Gallant\, aims to challenge conventional views of fixed cultural differences through a series of public conversations that examine how China\, America\, and other societies have debated and addressed ​​a similar set of central questions. By inviting prominent scholars from outside of Chinese studies to engage in dialogue with scholars studying China\, we hope to encourage the audience to think in more complex ways about China and the United States\, and in the process\, to gain a deeper understanding of how we are all connected. \n\n\n\nJill Lepore is the David Woods Kemper ’41 Professor of American History and Affiliate Professor of Law at Harvard University. She is also a staff writer at The New Yorker. Her many books include\, “These Truths: A History of the United States” (2018)\, an international bestseller\, named one of Time magazine’s top ten non-fiction books of the decade. Her new book\, “The Deadline\,” will be published in 2023. She is currently working on a long-term research project called Amend\, an NEH-funded data collection of attempts to amend the U.S. Constitution. \n\n\n\nWen YU is a Visiting Assistant Professor of History at Boston College. She received her Ph.D. from Harvard University in 2018 and served as a Postdoctoral Fellow at the Lieberthal-Rogel Center for Chinese Studies at the University of Michigan from 2019 to 2021. Her research focuses on China’s history of social and political thought\, ideological movements\, and intellectual culture from the seventeenth century to the present. She is working on a book project based on her award-winning dissertation\, entitled “The Search for a Chinese Way in the Modern World: From the Rise of Evidential Learning to the Birth of Chinese Identity.” It explains how defining Chinese cultural identity has become central to the intellectual debates about the political system and moral values in modern China. \n\n\n\nMichael Puett is the Walter C. Klein Professor of Chinese History and Anthropology at Harvard University. His interests are focused on the inter-relations between history\, anthropology\, religion\, and philosophy\, with the hope of bringing the study of China into larger historical and comparative frameworks. He is the author of “The Ambivalence of Creation: Debates Concerning Innovation and Artifice in Early China” and “To Become a God: Cosmology\, Sacrifice\, and Self-Divinization in Early China.” His course\, “Classical Chinese Ethical and Political Theory\,” is one of the most popular courses at the university. \n\n\n\nBenjamin Gallant is a Ph.D. candidate in the Department of East Asian Languages at Harvard University whose research focuses on the intellectual and legal history of early China. His dissertation project examines how people used and debated the past in ancient China as the emergence of legalist statecraft and an imperial bureaucracy introduced enormous tensions between the state\, the family\, and the individual. His research has been supported by the Fulbright Program\, the Gerda Henkel Foundation\, and the Fairbank Center for Chinese Studies. \n\n\n\nAlso available on Zoom.

SUMMARY:Critical Issues Confronting China Series featuring Zak Dychtwald - What Do China’s Youth Want?
DESCRIPTION:Register for hybrid zoom attendance\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nSpeaker: Zak Dychtwald\, Founder and CEO\, Young China Group \n\n\n\nThere is enormous discussion of China’s hundreds of millions of young people.  Consumer\, competitor\, collaborator\, and most recently political participant – this young generation will define China’s role on the world stage in the decades to come.  They have grown up with enormous economic progress\, relatively free everyday life\, and the intensive focus of the world’s brands as the leading growth consumer. They have also faced relentless pressure—to get into the right school\, to make money\, to please their parents. \n\n\n\nOn the tail end of three years of COVID measures\, three decades of a speeding economy is beginning to slow\, job markets are stagnating\, and some are choosing to “lie flat\,” 躺平， essentially opting out of the rat race. \n\n\n\nHow resilient is the younger generation to a slowing economy that no longer offers instant opportunity? And do the White Paper protests suggest they want more\, in terms of freedom and their relationship with the government? \n\n\n\nZak Dychtwald is the author of critically acclaimed Young China: How the Restless Generation Will Change Their Country and the World and founder of market insights firm\, Young China Group. A fluent mandarin speaker with a decade in China\, Dychtwald’s goal is to bring a people-first approach to China and understand how evolving youth identity drives economic and political outcomes.  \n\n\n\nAlso available on Zoom.

SUMMARY:Texas: From Carbon Emitter to Green Hydrogen Exporter - A Promising Sustainable Future
DESCRIPTION:Speaker: Haiyang Lin\, Postdoctoral Fellow\, Harvard-China Project on Energy\, Economy and Environment \n\n\n\nTexas\, as the largest oil and natural gas producer in the United States\, faces significant challenges in the global move towards decarbonization. As a potential solution\, this study examines the feasibility of investing in green hydrogen\, a promising alternative to oil and gas as a primary energy source. By harnessing its abundant wind and solar resources\, Texas has the potential to become a major producer and exporter of green hydrogen\, reducing its carbon footprint and promoting a sustainable energy future. This talk is part of comparative research on the same topics in China\, led by Chinese researcher Dr. Haiyang Lin\, and drawing on knowledge from China. \n\n\n\nThis research conducts detailed simulations and optimizations of green hydrogen supply scenarios\, incorporating decarbonization of the power sector in Texas. The objective is to explore the role of Texas’s green hydrogen in decarbonizing its economy and reducing the carbon footprint of energy use in the United States more broadly. First\, the potential of renewable sources is estimated. Hydrogen supply\, pipeline planning\, and grid expansion are then integrated to assess opportunities for using zero-carbon hydrogen in transport services\, industrial processes\, and chemical production. The study reveals that Texas has significant advantages in an expanding hydrogen economy\, including abundant renewable sources\, existing infrastructure\, and availability of salt caverns for storage\, all of which provide both scale and cost benefits\, as well as enhanced grid stability. Under 2030 low carbon policy restrictions\, more than 20 million tons of hydrogen can be produced and then used as fuel or converted to other chemicals at a competitive cost compared to fossil fuel sources. Retrofitting extensive oil and gas pipelines originating from Texas or constructing new pipelines\, Texas can maintain its role as an energy exporter\, contributing to the energy needs of the country in a sustainable manner. \n\n\n\nOur work considers the possibility of importing the cheap alkaline electrolyzer from China to Texas to help the state develop a green hydrogen economy. Chinese electrolyzer is one third of the cost for US eclectrolyzer. We simulated their utilization in Texas and highlighted the impact of importing Chinese electrolyzer on green H2 production in terms of levelized H2 cost and scale. \n\n\n\nMeanwhile\, given the similarities of Texas and Inner Mongolia in fossil fuel consumption\, industrial development\, and renewable power endowment\, we are looking for collaborations to pursue a comparative study on Inner Mongolia\, China. This seminar will focus on Texas’s green hydrogen economy but the research framework and methodology we developed are well applicable for studying other regions. \n\n\n\n \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nVenue
