SUMMARY:Lecture: Federico Brusadelli: Self-government (zizhi) in China from the late Qing to the Republic: a contested concept in the search for political modernity
DESCRIPTION:Self-government (zizhi) in China from the late Qing to the Republic: a contested concept in the search for political modernity\nFederico Brusadelli \nUniversity of Naples “L’Orientale” \n  \n  \nJan 28\, 2022 12:00 PM Amsterdam\, Berlin\, Rome\, Stockholm\, Vienna \nFor registration\, please use this zoom link.  \nAbstract\nThis talk will look at how the concept of zizhi 自治 (self-government) was (re) articulated in late imperial and early republican China (1898-1928)\, either to strengthen and “modernize” the Manchu Empire or to build federal/republican counternarratives to the traditional system. From the late Qing official Huang Zunxian 黄遵宪 (who praised the Japanese system of provincial governance as pivotal in the Meiji State-building process) to the Republican governor of Guangdong Cheng Jionming 陈炯明 and his Jeffersonian inspiration of a bottom-up reconstruction of China in the 1920s – including the “provincial patriots” of the 1910s -\, prominent individuals and organized networks or movements will be observed in their attempts at redefining the relationship between the “State” and the “local”.\nA survey of how the same concept of “local self-government” was variously translated\, adapted\, and circulated through the use of multiple historical or “foreign” references (in the methodological framework of Begriffsgeschichte)\, will reveal contrasting\, and often competing\, political blueprints for the construction of a (differently conceived) “modern” China. \n  \nFederico Brusadelli is Lecturer in Chinese History and International History of East Asia at the University of Naples “L’Orientale”\, where he completed his PhD in 2016 with a dissertation on the Chinese philosopher Kang Youwei.\nFrom 2017 to 2020 he was Researcher in Sinology at the Friedrich-Alexander University in Erlangen-Nuremberg (Germany). In 2020/2021 he was Visiting Fellow at the European Institute for Chinese Studies in Paris. His current research project adopts a “conceptual history” approach to the study of Chinese federalist movements in the late-imperial and republican periods. \n  \nThis lecture is part of the lecture series New Perspectives on Modernity in China.\n\n  \nOrganizers: \n\nProf. Dr. Axel Schneider\, University of Göttingen\nProf. Dr. Thomas Fröhlich\, University of Hamburg \n\n \n\nCeMEAS – Centre for Modern East Asian Studies & Department of East Asian Studies\, University of Göttingen\n\n \nAsia-Africa- Institute\, Department for Chinese Language and Culture\, University of Hamburg \n\n\nDepartment of East Asian Studies\, University of Göttingen \n  \nSponsor: \n \nAcademic Confucius Institute\, University of Göttingen \n. \n.\nImage: sung ming whang: Early saturday morning in color\, Attribution 2.0 Generic (CC BY 2.0)\, https://flic.kr/p/6E5PXd\n
