SUMMARY:Jay Xu - Asia Now: A New Focus on Contemporary Art
DESCRIPTION:Speaker: Jay Xu\, Director and CEO\, Asian Art Museum of San Francisco \nEver since its doors opened in 1966\, the Asian Art Museum has dedicated itself to inspiring new ways of thinking. Through its world-class collection\, exhibitions\, and programs\, the AAM connects diverse communities to various aspects of Asian art and culture. To further its commitment to make Asian art and culture an essential part of American life in the 21st century\, the AAM has launched a major contemporary art initiative. The overarching goal is to spark the audience’s curiosity\, foster connection of art to life\, and to contributes to a paradigm shift and canon building in the field of contemporary Asian art. The newly renovated and expanded museum facilities and art presentation\, which are to open to public in May 2020\, include the first manifestation of the contemporary art initiative. This lecture will discuss the thought process\, strategy\, resources\, and programs of the AAM’s initiative\, and encourage critical feedback for its effort.

SUMMARY:Bin Li - From History Books to Digital Humanities Database: Methods\, Tools\, and Case Studies of Chinese Classics
DESCRIPTION:Artificial intelligence technology has rapidly changed the study form of humanities. In this presentation\, we will discuss the key issues in using natural language processing\, deep learning\, GIS\, database and visualization technologies to design a new digital humanities database from the electronic texts of ancient books. We will introduce automatic tagging tools for ancient Chinese sentence/word segmentation\, named entity tagging. Then\, we will present a case study of constructing the DH database of Chinese classics Zuozhuan(左傳)\, Shiji(史記) and Shijing(詩經)\, which offers word based multi-functional retrieval in addition to the full-text retrieval. Data analysis and visualization also reveal new facts from the texts\, such as the personal social relations and travelling distance. Finally\, we discuss the potential improvements and applications of the DH database. \nSpeaker: Bin Li\, Visiting Scholar of CBDB group at IQSS\, Harvard University. Associate Professor of Applied Linguistics in the School of Chinese Language and Literature\, Nanjing Normal University

SUMMARY:Lin Sheng-chih - Rethinking the Religious Elements in the Tombs of Early Medieval China
DESCRIPTION:Speaker: Lin Sheng-chih\, Associate Research Fellow\, Institute of History and Philology\, Academia Sinica; HYI Visiting Scholar\, 2019-20\nChair/discussant: Eugene Wang\, Abby Aldrich Rockefeller Professor of Asian Art\, Department of History of Art and Architecture\, Harvard University \nThis talk examines religious elements in the tombs of early medieval China (220–589)\, in an effort to gain new perspectives into the art of tombs from this period. To achieve this goal\, this project conceptually refers to recent scholarship on the very idea of religion. In terms of materials\, the project covers sources from Buddhism\, Daoism\, Confucianism\, and Zoroastrianism\, as well as local cults of nomadic tribes. In its central argument\, this project aims to elucidate the religious elements in tombs of the Northern dynasties (386–581) by considering the local cults of nomadic tribes. \nhttps://harvard-yenching.org/events/rethinking-religious-elements-tombs-early-medieval-china

SUMMARY:The Stories We Tell and the Objects We Keep: Asian American Women and the Archives
DESCRIPTION:The stories of Asian American women extend far beyond the geographic borders of the United States. Inspired by tales and objects from family history\, their narratives often reflect the transnational nature of Asian American women’s lives. Despite the importance of these narratives to expanding and complicating our understanding of war\, migration\, inequity\, and difference\, the accounts and perspectives of Asian American women have often been overlooked in formal records\, and the tangible objects providing critical evidence of their histories have been ignored. \nThis half-day program will bring together Asian American activists and artists\, including novelists\, filmmakers\, playwrights\, and photographers\, to share the stories that inspire their craft and the objects they retain as part of their personal histories. \nTo register and to view a full list of speakers\, visit www.radcliffe.harvard.edu/event/2020-stories-we-tell-objects-we-keep-conference. \nThis event is free. Registration is required.

SUMMARY:***CANCELED*** Lizhi Liu - From Click to Boom: The Political Economy of E-Commerce in China
DESCRIPTION:This event is canceled. We apologize for the inconvenience. \nSpeaker: Lizhi Liu\, Georgetown University \nA central question in political economy asks: how do developing states build market-supporting institutions (e.g.\, secure property rights\, contract enforcement\, and the rule of law)? Too often\, political obstacles prevent developing states from adopting strong formal institutions. I propose that China has devised a novel solution to this political problem: institutional outsourcing. I argue that\, with weak rule of law\, the state has outsourced part of its institutional functions to key private actors\, which I call\, private regulatory intermediaries (PRIs). Using as the context China’s e-commerce market\, where 514 million active users generate more than 70 million transactions per day\, I show that online trading platforms (e.g.\, Alibaba’s Taobao.com and Tmall.com) have begun to serve as PRIs. More specifically\, platforms privately supply market-supporting institutions to enforce contracts\, prevent fraud\, and settle disputes. Not only do platforms enforce rules\, they also assist the state in creating and reforming formal institutions through institutional experiments. I demonstrate that institutional outsourcing is a more politically viable solution to market failure and governance deficit than the direct reforming of formal institutions. I further argue that institutional outsourcing\, as an alternative route to institutional development\, is potentially generalizable to other developing countries. This talk is an overview of my research on China’s e-commerce market. In the talk\, I will discuss how and why China’s e-commerce boom is not merely a technology shock. Rather\, the rise of China’s e-commerce market has brought profound economic and institutional changes in China.
