SUMMARY:Regional Production Networks in East Asia: Origin\, Evolution\, and Implications
DESCRIPTION:Speaker: Professor Min Shu\, Harvard-Yenching Visiting Scholar; Associate Professor of International Economy\, Waseda University\, Japan \nChair:  Professor Daniel M. Smith\, Department of Government\, Harvard University \nIn the past three decades\, regional production networks played an increasingly important role in East Asian political economy. Originated from Japan’s industrial policy to ‘export’ its sunset industries\, the flow of foreign direct investments (FDIs) from advanced regional economies to the rest of East Asia accelerated after the Plaza Accord in 1985. The participation of non-Asian multinationals\, the exodus of SMEs in the same value/supply chains\, the modularization of modern production (esp. in electronics)\, and the host countries’ FDI-friendly policies all contributed to their rapid development in the 1990s. However\, it was the rise of China as the center of regional assemblies that has transformed the dynamics of regional production networks from capital flow and cross-country production to spatial politics. The talk will examine the implications of regional production networks in relations to labor market regulation\, trade protectionism\, and the politico-economic \n\nhttps://asiaevents.harvard.edu/event/regional-production-networks-east-asia-origin-evolution-and-implications

SUMMARY:Tectonic Geopolitical Shift? The China-Russia-US Strategic Triangle in the Trump Era
DESCRIPTION:Speakers: \n\n\nLyle Goldstein\, Associate Professor\, US Naval War College\nVitaly Kozyrev\, Associate Professor of Political Science\, Endicott College\, Beverly\, MA \n\n\nResurgent China-Russia relations have formed a new and major factor in global politics over the last decade and especially in the last few years.  The current world order has come to resemble in some disturbing respects the two distinct and hostile camps that characterized the early Cold War period.  Indeed\, accelerating cooperation between Moscow and Beijing in the military\, diplomatic\, and economic spheres has been widely seen as a major threat to US national security.  While scholars have actively debated whether these steps toward enhanced strategic cooperation are merely symbolic and paper over major differences\, few have challenged the basic premise that Middle Kingdom’s financial heft taken together with the Kremlin’s agile diplomatic maneuvers could form a significant challenge to the West.  However\, the surprise election of Donald Trump may appear to disrupt the unfolding logic described above.  Undoubtedly\, a rapprochement between Washington and Moscow that mitigates or even eradicates the sense of a “New Cold War” would impact on the other key lattices of the classic strategic triangle:  both Russia-China relations as well as the all-important US-China relationship.  This talk will draw on unique Chinese and Russian source material to evaluate the prospects for such a major tectonic geopolitical shift. \nCosponsored by the Davis Center for Russian and Eurasian Studies

SUMMARY:Sacred Nation: Chinese Museums and the Legacy of Empire
DESCRIPTION:Speaker: Magnus Fiskesjö\, Associate Professor\, Department of Anthropology\, Cornell University \nThe official Chinese view of China’s history and national identity has been transformed in recent decades from a tale of revolutionary class struggle into a story of ancient and unbroken national and imperial glory. This shift can be discerned in both new and restored Chinese museums and memorial sites commemorating recent and past heroes. Magnus Fiskesjö will discuss the current boom in China’s “culture industry” and what it tells us about changes in Chinese conceptions of national and cultural identity. \nPresented in collaboration with the Departments of Anthropology and Human Evolutionary Biology\, Harvard University

SUMMARY:Embodied Memories of the “Nine Polemics”
DESCRIPTION:Speaker: Sun Peidong (Associate Professor\, Department of History\, Fudan University; HYI Visiting Scholar)\nChair/Discussant: Elizabeth Perry (Henry Rosovsky Professor of Government\, Harvard University/Harvard-Yenching Institute) \nMasterminded by Mao himself and drafted by the CCP’s top theorists\, the Nine Polemics (jiu ping 九评)  made ideological and media preparations for the launching of the Cultural Revolution. The core issues in these polemics concerned the necessity to fight Soviet-style revisionism and prevent its happening in China\, the need to forestall the American strategy of peaceful evolution\, and the urgency to cultivate China’s younger generation as revolutionary successors. The Nine Polemics had a profound influence on the Cultural Revolution generation. Its polemical style and powerful rhetorical flourishes would soon become a model for Red Guard polemics. Famous passages from the Nine Commentaries were memorized and later became rhetorical resources for debate in the Cultural Revolution. This talk shows how the Nine Polemics produced such powerful influences by analyzing its organized dissemination and the context of its reception. Based on previously untapped archival sources\, as well as oral histories specifically collected for this project\, the analysis focuses on what aspects of the Nine Polemics are remembered and how they are remembered. A key finding shows that radio broadcast played a crucial role in disseminating the Nine Commentaries and strengthening their influences through the voices of the radio anchors. \nhttps://www.harvard-yenching.org/events/seeing-and-listening-violence-dissemination-nine-polemics-and-their-influence-red-guard

SUMMARY:China Humanities Seminar: The Poetry Demon - Tensions within Chinese Buddhist Monks’ Literature
DESCRIPTION:Speaker: Jason Protass is Assistant Professor of Religious Studies at Brown University. He completed doctoral work at Stanford University in 2016\, and was a visiting researcher at Academia Sinica in Taipei and at Hanazono and Ryukoku universities in Kyoto. \nBuddhist monks in Song dynasty China were visited by a literary impulse that interrupted religious activities and ritual. This unwelcome muse was sometimes referred to as the demon of poetry. In this talk\, I explore some lesser-known intersections of Chinese poetry and the Buddhist path. I read monks’ verse together with prescriptive texts that restricted literary activity\, including legal codes\, primers\, and hagiography. I hypothesize that at the heart of monastic verse culture was the negotiation of competing commitments to Buddhist monasticism and to literary expression.
