SUMMARY:Lecture Series: Transformative Spaces
DESCRIPTION:Special Guest Lecture:\nTransformative Spaces of 19th Century East Asia: \n A Japanese Merchant’s Experience of Treaty Port Yokohama\nTuesday\, February 2\, 2016\n5 pm (c.t.)\, VG 3.102\nProf. Simon C. Partner\nDuke University\, Department of History \nFollowing the experiences of one merchant\, a farmer from Kōshū province (present-day Yamanashi prefecture) who left his village to open a trading venture in Yokohama in 1859\, the presentation will examine the merchant communities of Yokohama during roughly the first decade of its existence\, 1859-1873. Through this lens\, the role of the Yokohama treaty port in the political\, social\, and economic transformations of the 1860s and beyond will be explored. More broadly\, the presentation will consider the transformative agency of the East Asian treaty ports as new spaces of global exchange. \nImage: Evan Blaser\, 266\, CC BY 2.0. https://flic.kr/p/arSwzN

SUMMARY:Lecture Series: Rethinking China’s Place  in Global History Comparatively
DESCRIPTION:Special Guest Lecture:\n Rethinking China’s Place in Global History Comparatively\nTuesday\, February 16\, 2016\n 5 p.m. (c.t.)\, KWZ 0.603\n Prof. Dr. Kent Deng\n The London School of Economics and Political Science\, Department of Economic History \nIn 1803\, Napoleon famously said in front of a world atlas where China was that ‘Here lies a sleeping giant (lion in other versions)\, let him sleep\, for when he wakes up\, he will shock the world’ (“Ici repose un géant endormi\, laissez le dormir\, car quand il s’éveillera\, il étonnera le monde”). \nNapoleon turned out to be right 200 years ago. China’s ‘miracle growth’ and development in the recent four decade has stunted the world. Most current observers have been very puzzled about where the energy and determination of such growth has come from. But if one takes a long-term and global view\, China’s current growth and development become rather logical\, if not entirely inevitable. \nThis talk will take the audience back to the very beginning of the formation of the Empire of China (which was at the same time the formation of one of the largest single economy in the world) and show what China managed to achieve in comparison with Europe historically. It argues that contemporary China merely reclaims its ‘rightful’ place in the world rather than invents a new one for itself. So\, the rest of the world will have to get used to it. \n
