SUMMARY:CeMEAS Lecture: AIRCRAFT\, SPACECRAFT\, STATECRAFT Specialist cultures and China-U.S. trade in sensitive technologies
DESCRIPTION:CeMEAS Lecture\nAircraft\, Spacecraft\, Statecraft: Specialist cultures and China-U.S. trade in sensitive technologies\nMonday\, May 2\, 2016\, 6 pm (c.t.) KWZ 0.610\nAlanna Krolikowski\, PhD\nVisiting Professor of Modern Chinese Society and Economy\, Georg-August-University Göttingen \nWhy are some sensitive\, strategic high-technology industries organized into transnational production networks while others are fragmented into national industrial bases? This project explores this general question through a comparison of China-U.S. trade in two strategic\, dual-use sectors: civil commercial aircraft and spacecraft manufacture. In the aircraft sector\, Chinese and U.S. firms have expanded their trade and industrial partnerships for the manufacture of sensitive items since the 1980s. In the space sector\, Chinese and U.S. firms traded in sensitive articles for a decade before policy changes severed these exchanges in 1999. This project explains these divergent outcomes\, drawing on data collected through extensive field research. \n  \nImage: PaoPao Wang PCPOP.COM\, kindly supplied by the lecturer\nDesign: CeMEAS \n

SUMMARY:Global Food Research Colloquium - Fertilizer Use in China: Why Is It So High\, and What Can Be Done to Reduce It?
DESCRIPTION:Global Food Research Colloquium\nFertilizer Use in China: Why Is It So High\, and What Can Be Done to Reduce It?\n\nProfessor David Abler\, Ph.D.\, Agricultural\, Environmental and Regional Economics and Demography\, Penn State University\n\nTuesday\, 17.05.2016\, 16:15 to 17:45\nZHG 102\n\n\nOn Tuesday\,  May 17th  David Abler will present his research on fertilizer use in China in the Global Food Research Colloquium. The Colloquium has been organized by the Department of Agricultural Economics and Rural Development as a joint event with the Agricultural Economics Seminar.\n\n \n   \nChina’s rates of agricultural fertilizer use per hectare are among the highest in the world\, and fertilizer is a major contributor to water pollution\, air pollution\, and greenhouse gas emissions in China. Several explanations have been put forward for the high rates of fertilizer use in China\, most of which do not stand up to close scrutiny. A number of pilot programs offering farmers information\, technical assistance\, and/or incentives to reduce fertilizer use have been tried\, almost all of which have failed. This paper surveys these explanations and programs\, identifies key unanswered research questions about fertilizer use in China\, and offers programmatic suggestions for reducing fertilizer use based on the experience of other countries.\n\n\nFind out more about Göttingen University Global Agri-Food Systems program and events on http://www.uni-goettingen.de/de/191858.html

SUMMARY:CeMEAS Lecture: Beyond Modernity - Understanding Change in Qing China (1644 – 1911)
DESCRIPTION:CeMEAS Lecture\nBeyond Modernity: Understanding Change in Qing China (1644 – 1911)\nFriday\, May 20\, 2016\, 12:15 VG 2.101\nProf. Margherita Zanasi\nDirector of Asian Studies\, Department of History  at Louisiana State University \nThis lecture explores the limits of adopting a modernization approach to the study of economic change in Qing China. Recent works have successfully “decentered” developmental determinism by questioning both the uniqueness of the European experience and the imposition on non-Western countries of derivative chronologies of modernity. They have especially focused on tracing the existence in China of those elements that characterized the modernization experience in Europe\, above all the introduction of pro-market and pro-consumption policies. This approach\, however\, had the unintended consequence of keeping the historical narrative focused on the European experience\, overshadowing elements that played a uniquely important role in China\, such as population growth. \nIn the late-eighteenth and early-nineteenth centuries\, under mounting pressure from population growth\, pro-market and pro-consumption ideas and policies that had culminated in the reign of the Qianlong Emperor (1711 –1799) began to lose favor. This reversal marked the beginning of the uneasy relationship with the free market that came to characterize modern China. In China\, therefore\, the fortunes of laissez faire thought and policies followed a very different path than in Europe. They emerged almost a hundred year earlier and came later to be considered unsuitable to face newly emerging problems. In China\, modernity actually arrived in the form of an increasingly interventionist state. \n  \nImage: By tanakawho\, Behind the bars\,  CC BY-NC 2.0\,  https://flic.kr/p/dYqAgS\nDesign: CeMEAS\n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n

SUMMARY:Guest Lecture: 近代以來中國佛教的基本狀況與未來展望   Basic Situation and Future Prospects of Chinese Buddhism since the Modern Times
DESCRIPTION:Guest Lecture\n近代以來中國佛教的基本狀況與未來展望\n普 慧\, 國家教育部人文社會科學重點研究基地四川大學中國俗文化研究中心\nMonday\, June 6\, 2016  · 4 pm (c.t.)  ·  VG 4.104\n \n  \nBasic Situation and Future Prospects of Chinese Buddhism since the Modern Times\nPu Hui\, Centre for Chinese Folk Cultural Studies of Sichuan University\, Key Research Base of Humanities & Social Science of National Ministry of Education\n \n佛教從公元1世紀傳入中國，歷經2000年，已經完全成爲中國傳統文化的重要組成部分，在中國漢文化以及一些主要的少數民族文化中，發揮了重要的作用。人們的社會生活、精神生活都充斥著佛教內容。無論是上層的知識精英，還是下層的黎民百姓，都離不開佛教信仰的指導。 \n走向近代時的佛教，已經是老態龍鍾，步履蹣跚，一副衰氣。伴隨著近代民族革命和民主革命的興起，中國佛教也開始懲治教內腐敗，力圖復興、光大佛法，以適應社會急變之需。然而，20世紀的中國，戰亂頻仍，內憂外患，民族救亡和國家振興成爲主題。意識形態的加強，政治氛圍的濃郁，把佛教的生存空間擠壓到了瀕臨倒閉的境地。佛教的精神指南作用下滑爲民間神祇的功利主義的心理安慰。20世紀直至今天的30多年裡，佛教迅速復興，力求適應新的社會變革。 \n中國佛教的前世、今生以及未來將如何行進呢？她還能有新的活力嗎？演講者將提出自己的觀點。 \n  \nImage: By Mi..chael\, CC BY-NC 2.0\, https://flic.kr/p/hF5j9v\n Design: CeMEAS \n  \n  \n

SUMMARY:Guest Lecture: The Making of Merchants - War\, Local Government\, and Commercial Organization in Chongqing from 1750 to 1950
DESCRIPTION:Guest Lecture\nThe Making of Merchants – War\, Local Government\, and Commercial Organization in Chongqing from 1750 to 1950\nWednesday\, June 8\, 2016 · 12:15 pm ·  Oec 1.162\nProf. Maura Dykstra\n Caltech Division of the Humanities and Social Sciences \nThis lecture explores the formation\, development\, and expansion of merchant groups in the inland commercial center of Chongqing from the Qianlong period to the end of the Republican era. It demonstrates how Sichuan’s profile as a military base provided an urgent demand and special conditions for commercial organization at the local level. It illustrates how provincial and local institutions created an opportunity for the emergence of merchant groups whose relationship to the state grew both closer and more complicated over time. In conclusion\, this paper argues that the wartime mobilization of merchant groups in the 1930s and 1940s was the climax of two centuries of local state-building. \nPicture: 渝城图section4\, kindly provided by the speaker \n

SUMMARY:Guest Lecture: Revolution Comes to East: colonial modernity\, national subjectivity and subaltern everydayness
DESCRIPTION:Guest Lecture\nRevolution Comes to East: Colonial Modernity\, National Subjectivity and Subaltern Everydayness\nMonday\, June 13\, 2016 · 6pm (c.t.) KWZ 0.602\nProf. Jie-Hyun Lim\nSogang University \n  \nAsianization\, Africanization or Latin Americanization of Marxism involves more than a mere transposition of Marxian ideas to non-European countries. When revolution came to East\, events contradicted the ideology. The Bolshevik revolution seemed to deny Marx’s famous dictum of ‘the country that is more developed industrially only shows\, to the less developed\, the image of its own future.’ Based on a divergent mode of capitalist development from the ‘West’\, the Russian revolution represented ‘a revolution against Karl Marx’s Capital.’\nHowever\, revolution in Russia was not a derivative one wherein the historical authenticity of the Marxian revolution in the developed capitalist countries is tested. Viewed from entangled histories of capitalism\, colonialism\, nationalism and socialism as competing visions of the global modernity\, the Bolshevik revolution was the field of political contests of those competing visions. As the development of the global socialism showed in the twentieth century\, socialism was not consequent to capitalism but constitutive of it. Confronting subaltern everydayness\, all that solid division of the revolution and counterrevolution\, and colonial modernity and national subjectivity melts into the air. This is to trace the socialist revolution moving to East from the combined optic of the global modernity and local everydayness with a spatial stress on Asia. \n

SUMMARY:Guest Lecture: Kafka in China - Rezeptionsgeschichte eines Klassikers der Moderne
DESCRIPTION:Guest Lecture\n Kafka in China – Rezeptionsgeschichte eines Klassikers der Moderne\n Prof. Dr. Ren Weidong\, Beijing Foreign Studies University\nWednesday\, June 15\, 2 pm\, Käte-Hamburger-Weg 6\, KHW 0.111 \nDie Rezeption Kafkas als eines Autors der modernen deutschsprachigen Literatur und der literarischen Moderne überhaupt erfolgt in China vor dem Hintergrund der Auseinandersetzung mit der “westlichen” und der eigenen literarischen Moderne.\nMein Vortrag zeichnet die Rezeptionsgeschichte Kafkas in China seit der Öffnungspolitik 1978 nach und deckt die Dispositionen auf\, an die auch die chinesische Rezeption der westlichen literarischen Moderne insgesamt anschließt. Kafkas Werk provoziert ein neues ästhetisches Bewusstsein und verlangt eine aktive Anteilnahme des Lesers. Die Beschäftigung mit seinem Werk fordert die konventionellen Normen der chinesischen literaturwissenschaftlichen Forschung heraus und stellt den mit einem traditionellen Realismus vertrauten Leser vor neue Aufgaben. So ist die Geschichte der Kafka-Rezeption auch ein Spiegelbild des Wandels von literarischen Normen\, ästhetischem Bewusstsein\, dem Erwartungshorizont und der Entwicklung der Literaturforschung in China überhaupt. \nPlease note that this event will be held in German.

SUMMARY:Guest Lecture: Buddhismus im Heutigen China
DESCRIPTION:Guest Lecture\nBuddhismus im Heutigen China\nProf. Dr. Li Xuetao\, Beijing Foreign Studies University\nWednesday\, June 15\, 4 pm\, VG 3.108 \nVom 22. bis 23. April 2016 fand die nationale Religionskonferenz in Beijing statt\, an der Vertreter verschiedener Religionen teilnahmen. Auf dieser Konferenz hielt der chinesische Staatspräsident Xi Jinping eine wichtige Rede. Meister Xuecheng\, Präsident der Vereinigung der Buddhisten Chinas\, war bei der Konferenz ebenfalls anwesend. Der Buddhismus hat seinen Ursprung im alten Indien. Nach seiner Einführung in China vor etwa 2000 Jahren entwickelt er sich weiter und hat seither große Beiträge für die chinesische Kultur geleistet. Der Grund\, warum der Buddhismus festen Fuß in China fassen konnte\, liegt darin\, dass er sich dem kulturellen Umfeld Chinas angepasst hat. Im Referat will Li über die Entwicklung des Buddhismus in China nach der Gründung der Volksrepublik im Jahr 1949 sprechen. Welches Schicksal hat der Buddhismus in der atheistischen Gesellschaft? Und spielt der Buddhismus weiterhin eine Rolle zur Reinigung des menschlichen Geistes in einer kommerzialisierten Gesellschaft\, wie wir sie heute vielerorts erleben? \nPlease note that this event will be held in German.

SUMMARY:Guest Lecture and Roundtable Discussion - Prof. Prasenjit Duara
DESCRIPTION:Guest Lecture and Roundtable Discussion\nSustainability and the Crisis of Transcendence: The Long View from Asia \nPublic Lecture by Prof. Dr. Prasenjit Duara\, Duke University\nWednesday June 22\, 18:00-20:00 0.602 KWZ\nThe rise of Asia and China in particular has been accompanied by the need to project a new\, more just vision of the world that is not simply a new hegemony. Many Chinese intellectuals have sought to find inspiration in their historical and transcendent universalisms such as ‘all-under-heaven’ (tianxia). The paper is an effort to think through\nthe conceptual and political framework for understanding transcendence in post-Western modernity. Historically\, universalisms have been the source of ideals\, principles and ethics. Modern universalisms – developed from Kant to Marx – are apparently in retreat\, yielding to nationalism and consumerism.Yet the physical salvation of the world is of greatest urgency and becoming\, in some quarters\, the transcendent goal of our times. It will\, however\, need to transcend exclusive national sovereignty for its realization. The role of transnational civil society and NGOs as much as quasi-governmental and transnational agencies\, are crucial for this realization. Older approaches of dialogical transcendence may furnish us with useful methodologies of linking the personal\, the community\, the environment and the world.\nRegionalizing the Global\, Globalizing the Regional: An interdisciplinary conversation\nThursday June 23\, 9:15-11:00\n0.602 KWZ (please note the new venue!)\nRoundtable discussion with\n \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nProf. Dr. Prasenjit Duara\, Duke University\nProf. Dr. Peter van der Veer\, Max Planck Institute for the Study of Religious and Ethnic Diversity\, Göttingen\nProf. Dr. Ravi Ahuja\, Centre for Modern Indian Studies\nProf. Dr. Matthias Koenig\, Institute for Sociology\nProf. Dr. Srirupa Roy\, Centre for Modern Indian Studies\nProf. Dr. Dominic Sachsenmeier\, Centre for Modern East Asian Studies\n\nTransregional Studies at Göttingen\nPresented by the Forum for Transregional and Global Studies\, CETREN\, CeMIS\, CeMEAS\, Academic Confucius-Institute & the Center for Theory of Culture and Society (ZTMK)\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

Many Chinese intellectuals have sought to find inspiration in their historical and transcendent universalisms such as ‘all-under-heaven’ (tianxia). The paper is an effort to think through\nthe conceptual and political framework for understanding transcendence in post-Western modernity. Historically\, universalisms have been the source of ideals\, principles and ethics. Modern universalisms – developed from Kant to Marx – are apparently in retreat\, yielding to nationalism and consumerism.Yet the physical salvation of the world is of greatest urgency and becoming\, in some quarters\, the transcendent goal of our times. It will\, however\, need to transcend exclusive national sovereignty for its realization. The role of transnational civil society and NGOs as much as quasi-governmental and transnational agencies\, are crucial for this realization. Older approaches of dialogical transcendence may furnish us with useful methodologies of linking the personal\, the community\, the environment and the world.\nRegionalizing the Global\, Globalizing the Regional: An interdisciplinary conversation\nThursday June 23\, 9:15-11:00\n0.602 KWZ (please note the new venue!)\nRoundtable discussion with\n \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nProf. Dr. Prasenjit Duara\, Duke University\nProf. Dr. Peter van der Veer\, Max Planck Institute for the Study of Religious and Ethnic Diversity\, Göttingen\nProf. Dr. Ravi Ahuja\, Centre for Modern Indian Studies\nProf. Dr. Matthias Koenig\, Institute for Sociology\nProf. Dr. Srirupa Roy\, Centre for Modern Indian Studies\nProf. Dr. Dominic Sachsenmeier\, Centre for Modern East Asian Studies\n\nTransregional Studies at Göttingen\nPresented by the Forum for Transregional and Global Studies\, CETREN\, CeMIS\, CeMEAS\, Academic Confucius-Institute & the Center for Theory of Culture and Society (ZTMK)\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

SUMMARY:CeMEAS Lecture: The Realization of One Belt One Road?
DESCRIPTION:CeMEAS Lecture\nThe Realization of One Belt One Road?\nWednesday June 29\, 2016  · 4 pm (c.t.) ·  Oec 1.163\nDr. Chun-Yi Lee\, Faculty of Social Sciences\, The University of Nottingham \nThe One Belt One Road (OBOR) project initiated by the President Xi Jing Ping\, took shape in March 2015. It is envisaged to connect vibrant East Asia and developed Europe via Silk Road Economic Belt\, linking China with European countries via the 21st Century Maritime Silk Road. Its ultimate goal is to facilitate the trade and investment in Euroasia and promote economic growth.\nThe first step is to build upon necessarily infrastructure to facilitate the logistic trafficking\, enormous financial input is required for the initial infrastructure construction. The aim of OBOR\, therefore is to build networks of connectivity. It has to be noted that the geographical connections of ‘belt’ and ‘road’ are multiple. Two routes for silk road routes\, namely 21st Century maritime Silk Road and Maritime Silk Road Continental extension\, three main corridors embedded in Silk Road Economic belt\, respectively are Northern corridor\, Central corridor and Southern corridor\, Two main railway routes are Silk Rout trains and Trans-Siberian Railway. This corridor is extremely challenge not only because Xinjiang has already been troublous extremist segregation part. Most importantly\, what exactly the infrastructure that China intends to invest/build up from Xinjiang to Central Asian countries? This presentation therefore aims to analyse how realistic China can implement the multiple belts and roads project. \n  \nImage: By Jacopo\, Crossroads\, CC BY 2.0\, https://flic.kr/p/HeCACA\nDesign: CeMEAS \n  \n

SUMMARY:Guest Lecture: Common Elements of an Axial Age? Comparative Perspectives on Ancient China and Ancient Egypt
DESCRIPTION:Guest Lecture\nCommon Elements of an Axial Age? Comparative Perspectives on Ancient China and Ancient Egypt\nWednesday July 6\, 2016  · 4 pm (c.t.) ·  KWZ 0.608\nProf. Mu-Chou Poo\, Department of History\, The Chinese University of Hong Kong \nIn this lecture Prof. Poo re-examines the theory of the Axial Age by first investigating the case of China\, situating the findings in the context of the on-going scholarly discussions on the idea of the Axial Age as proposed by Jaspers and expounded by subsequent generations of scholars. A comparison with the case of ancient Egypt will then follow\, examining burial custom of ancient Egypt and the associated funerary texts.

SUMMARY:Guest Lecture: Chinese Humanities in the Global Era
DESCRIPTION:Guest Lecture\nChinese Humanities in the Global Era\nWednesday July 6\, 2016  · 6 pm (c.t.) ·  KWZ 0.602\nProf. Hsiung Ping-Chen\, The Chinese University of Hong Kong \nThe Term “Humanities” is often used in reference to disciplinary academic humanities: a modern\, institutional subject. That its development is usually a product (or byproduct) of cultural politics in nation-building can be taken for granted. In the case of China\, however\, the long and complicated civilization evidenced before the modern era—since Neolithic times\, with literary texts that date back thousands of years—presents us with the particular problem of deciding whether “national” is the best and most representative designation for the evolution of Chinese humanities as a disciplinary subject or for the cultural heritage behind it. The developmental phases of Chinese humanities provide us with a good tool for considering the nature of “national” humanities in an era that is increasingly global. The fact that “Chinese” humanistic studies are the product of an ancient civilization has also given them an undeniable regional quality\, which explains why they continue to exhibit characteristics that appear to be more broadly “East Asian.” In crises or opportunities involving Chinese academic and public humanities\, therefore\, the interplay of this national and intrinsically regional character may help scholars to address the complex yet fundamental questions behind the assumption that any humanities can be labeled as national or regional in this global era. \n  \nImage: By Kevin Doncaster\, Marbles\, CC BY 2.0\, https://flic.kr/p/ChipsX\nDesign: CeMEAS \n

SUMMARY:Gastvortrag: Ein Postkolonialer Denker avant la lettre?  Takeuchi Yoshimi\, sein Asianismus und die Kritik an der Moderne
DESCRIPTION:Gastvortrag\nEin Postkolonialer Denker avant la lettre? Takeuchi Yoshimi\, sein Asianismus und die Kritik an der Moderne\nThursday July 7\, 2016  · 6 pm (c.t.) ·  KWZ 3.701\nProf. Viren Murthy\, Department of History\, University of Wisconsin-Madison \nIn den 1980er Jahren begann eine zentrale Auseinandersetzung zwischen Marxisten und postkolonialen Theoretikern. Letztere kritisierten den Marxismus als eurozentrisch. Ihrer Meinung nach sahen Marxisten die europäische Geschichte als universell gültig und nutzten daher das europäische Entwicklungsmodell um Asien zu erklären. So verwendeten die Marxisten Kategorien wie Sklavengesellschaft und Feudalismus\, um die chinesische\, japanische und indische Geschichte zu interpretieren. In dieser Hinsicht erscheint der bekannte japanische Intellektuelle Takeuchi Yoshimi (1910-1977) als postkolonialer Denker avant la lettre.  In seiner Beschäftigung mit chinesischen Autoren und  Politikern wie etwa Lu Xun\, Sun Yat-sen und Mao Zedong kritisiert Takeuchi Kategorien wie Ost und West und entwickelt dadurch eine neue politische Sicht von Asien. Seiner Meinung nach wurde der Orient durch den Imperialismus erschaffen und daher als weniger fortschrittlich beurteilt als der Okzident. Intellektuelle im Orient setzen diese Wertung voraus\, obwohl sie gegen den Westen kämpfen\, denn in der Dialektik der 4.-Mai-Bewegung in China oder in der japanischen Meiji-Restauration kämpften chinesische und japanische Intellektuelle gegen den Imperialismus. In diesen Bewegungen verleugneten die Intellektuellen jedoch ihre eigene Kultur\, die sie als ein Hindernis für die Modernisierung sahen.  Takeuchi lieferte  hier eine neue Interpretation mit seiner Kritik an Ost und West. \nTakeuchi machte seinen Standpunkt durch seine eigene Auslegung von Lu Xun deutlich.  Lu Xun ist der bekannteste moderne Schriftsteller in China und  war nach den 1930er Jahren in China als Verteidiger der Modernisierung bekannt.  Als Takeuchis berühmtes Buch über Lu Xun 1944 erschien war er wahrscheinlich einer der ersten\, der Lu Xun als Kritiker der Moderne\, oder zumindest als einen der Moderne gegenüber zwiegespaltenen Denker\, einschätzte. Heutzutage ist eine solche Interpretation weit verbreitet. Der chinesische Neulinke Wang Hui hat beispielsweise in den späten 1980er Jahren eine ähnliche Interpretation von Lu Xun entwickelt. Dank des Einflusses subalterner und postkolonialer Studien in den 1990er Jahren haben Japanologen und wie Sinologen Takeuchi Yoshimi und seine Lu-Xun-Interpretation wiederentdeckt. In seinem Buch Takeuchi Yoshimi: Displacing the West (2004) versucht Richard Calichman Takeuchi philosophisch auszulegen und Takeuchis Begriff von Gefühl bzw. Passivität auf Basis der Thesen von Derrida und Jean-Luc Nancy zu erklären. \nChristian Uhls Wer War Takeuchis Lu Xun hingegen versucht Takeuchi von einer historischen Seite anzugehen und erklärt\, wie Takeuchi einige Begriffe und auch den theoretischen Rahmen von Nishida Kitaro verwendet. Ich versuche diese beiden Methoden weiterzuentwickeln\, konzentriere mich aber mehr auf die die Bedingungen der Interpretation Takeuchis sowie darauf\, wie solche Bedingungen mit den globalen Phänomenen des Kapitalismus und Imperialismus verknüpft sind. Takeuchi versucht  nämlich hier alternative Arten von Transzendenz zu entdecken und konstruiert durch eine literarische bzw. religiöse Transzendenz seine politische Vision. Seiner Meinung nach ist eine solche politische Transzendenz von einer eurozentrischen Perspektive aus nicht zu finden.  Die politische Vision\, die Takeuchi in China und Asien findet\, basiert auf einer anderen Art\, die Politik\, Religion und Literatur verbindet. In diesem Vortrag beabsichtige ich\, Takeuchis politische Ansicht von Asien bzw. seine Auslegung von Lu Xuns politischer Ansicht in einer Theorie des Kapitalismus zu begründen. Es ist bekannt\, daß Okawa Shumei Religion und Politik verbunden hat. Takeuchi versucht sich jedoch an dem Projekt\, Politik\, Religion und Literatur zu verknüpfen. Dieses Vorgehen ist mit der Suche nach einer Welt jenseits des Kapitalismus verbunden. Es ist zudem sein eigener Versuch\, eine neue sozialistische Politik zu schaffen. Wir können seinen Versuch postkolonial nennen\, aber trotzdem gibt es auch eine hegelianische Dimension\, weil Takeuchi danach strebt\, durch die Vermittlung Asiens westliche Ideale wie Freiheit und Egalität auf einer höheren Ebene zu realisieren. \n  \nImage: By guercio\, it depends on the cage you are in  CC BY 2.0\, https://flic.kr/p/6ctyJd\nPoster Design: CeMEAS \n

SUMMARY:Guest Lecture: Floating Gods\, Ghosts\, and Ancestors in North China Plain
DESCRIPTION:Guest Lecture\nFloating Gods\, Ghosts\, and Ancestors in North China Plain: Boat-dwelling Fisherpeople’s Mobile Pantheon and Ancestral Hall\nFriday July 8\, 2016 · 2 pm (c.t.) · KWZ 0.610\nChing-chih Lin\n Graduate Institute of Religious Studies\, National Chengchi University \nThis talk focuses on how environmental change transformed the religious culture by examining the floating community of boat-dwelling fisherpeople in freshwater in North China. These mobile\, isolated boat people adapted to a boat-dwelling lifestyle\, organized aquatic social groups\, and created innovative religious practices and beliefs in order to maintain their relationships with spirits and ancestors\, as well as dispersed lineage members\, given that they had no fixed base on land to build temples\, ancestral shrines or tombs. These boat dwellers were displaced from their land-based estates and became environmental refugees during the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries. More than hundred thousands of boat-dwellers moved back and forth via interconnected waterways among lakes and Grand Canal in North Jiangsu\, Southwest Shandong\, and the Huai River valleys of Anhui. The isolation of the boat people protected their unique religious activities from the anti-religious campaigns of the twentieth century. Their ritual tradition Duangu Ceremony was granted the status of National Intangible Cultural Heritage by the Ministry of Culture of the People’s Republic of China in 2011. \nSome significant elements and structures of religious belief and practice of boat people\, namely their ancestral worship and central rituals for deities\, remained unchanged\, transcending differences in occupation\, social status\, and environment for centuries. With the assistance of ritualists within the floating community\, these boat people endeavored to continue their genealogies and maintain ancestor worship\, practices that were equally important to farmers. These shared components can help us rethink core elements and structures of Chinese popular culture\, previously based on farmers’ experiences\, and discern which features are the most significant in Chinese popular religion and how and why they play such vital roles. More importantly\, core cultural elements have been resilient and resistant to environmental change. \nImage: By Lawrence Siu\, the grand canal\, CC BY 2.0\, https://flic.kr/p/4jAW6\,

Their ritual tradition Duangu Ceremony was granted the status of National Intangible Cultural Heritage by the Ministry of Culture of the People’s Republic of China in 2011. \nSome significant elements and structures of religious belief and practice of boat people\, namely their ancestral worship and central rituals for deities\, remained unchanged\, transcending differences in occupation\, social status\, and environment for centuries. With the assistance of ritualists within the floating community\, these boat people endeavored to continue their genealogies and maintain ancestor worship\, practices that were equally important to farmers. These shared components can help us rethink core elements and structures of Chinese popular culture\, previously based on farmers’ experiences\, and discern which features are the most significant in Chinese popular religion and how and why they play such vital roles. More importantly\, core cultural elements have been resilient and resistant to environmental change. \nImage: By Lawrence Siu\, the grand canal\, CC BY 2.0\, https://flic.kr/p/4jAW6\,

SUMMARY:Lecture Series: What’s Religious about a Dead Body? Cadaver Donations in Taiwan
DESCRIPTION:CeMEAS lecture:\nWhat’s Religious about a Dead Body? Cadaver Donations in Taiwan \nMonday July 25\, 2016  · 4 pm (c.t.)  ·  KWZ 0.610\n Prof. C. Julia Huang\, National Tsing Hua University\, Taiwan/VisitingScholar\, The Ho Center for Buddhist Studies\, Stanford University \nDrawing from ethnographies\, in this lecture Prof. Huang will explore the phenomenon of a recent “surge” of cadaver donations for medical purposes in Taiwan. The setting is a university founded by Tzu Chi (Ciji)\, a charismatic movement that runs one of the largest charities of Chinese Buddhism in the world. Since Tzu Chi founded its medical school in 1994\, the total number of donors for whole body donation for medical education has increased from one in 1995 to over 34\,000 in 2013. To what extent is this increase of willed bodies a religious phenomenon? What is religious about the dead body? In this lecture\, Prof. Huang will analyze her ethnographies with different approaches to religion\, in hope that her work will shed light on the shifting concept of religion in a modern and multicultural context. \nImage: By University of Liverpool Faculty of Health & Life Sciences\, Anatomical diagram of the human skeleton (rear view)\, CC BY-SA 2.0\, https://flic.kr/p/huDYbS\nDesign: CeMEAS

SUMMARY:Lecture: How China Escaped the Poverty Trap
DESCRIPTION:CeMEAS Lecture Series:  \nHow China Escaped the Poverty Trap \nTuesday\, Nov. 1\, 2016 · 6 pm\, VG 3.101 \nYuen Yuen Ang\, Assistant Professor of Political Science\, University of Michigan\n \n  \nPlease pay attention: this Lecture is cancelled. \n\nBefore markets opened in 1978\, China was an impoverished planned economy governed by a Maoist bureaucracy. In just three decades it evolved into the world’s second-largest economy and is today guided by highly entrepreneurial bureaucrats. What explains this amazing metamorphosis?\nWas it because China possessed basic growth factors like cheap labor? Was it bureaucratic incentives to promote growth? The use of incremental reforms? Or historical legacies? Existing accounts each highlight a different piece of the grand puzzle of China’s great transformation. Yet none can explain how the other pieces aggregated to remake an entire political economy within the span of a single generation.\nYuen Yuen Ang presents a fresh\, synthetic account of development that systematically traces the coevolution of markets and institutions. Her approach reveals a surprising finding: China escaped the poverty trap by first building markets with weak institutions—that is\, institutions that defy norms of good governance. This sequence of development is found in other geographic and temporal settings\, including late medieval Europe\, antebellum United States\, and contemporary Nigeria. \nBio\nYuen Yuen Ang is Assistant Professor of Political Science at the University of Michigan. Her book\, How China Escaped the Poverty Trap\, is released by Cornell University Press in September 2016\, and included in its political economy series. She is a recipient of the Eldersveld Prize for outstanding research contributions from the University of Michigan’s Department of Political Science\, two Early Career Fellowships from the American Council of Learned Societies\, and a global essay prize on “The Future of Development Assistance” from the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation. Ang’s scholarship integrates the study of development\, complex systems\, and Chinese political economy. \nImage by: Horia Varlan\, Old key chain in the shape of a small Earth globe\, CC BY-SA 2.0\,\nhttps://www.flickr.com/photos/horiavarlan/4270078348/sizes/sq/

SUMMARY:CeMEAS Lecture: Was Buddha a Muslim? Ottoman Turkish Reflexions on Japan
DESCRIPTION:CeMEAS Lecture: \nWas Buddha a Muslim? Ottoman Turkish Reflexions on Japan\nTuesday\, Jan. 17\, 2017\, 6 pm (c.t.) – 8 pm\, KWZ 2.601 \nDr. Katja Triplett \nCeMEAS\, University of Göttingen \nIn studies on relations between Japan and Turkey\, the topic of ‘religion’ has been mainly addressed in light of Islamic missionary activities and the role of Ottoman Turkish proselytizers in Japan. Recent studies have also highlighted the ways in which Japan served as a model for Ottomans in attaining “non-Western” modernity. \nHowever\, how Ottoman and republican Turkish intellectuals reflected about Japanese religions and spiritual practices has been not been studied yet in much detail\, despite the fact that a great variety of texts attests to the deep interest for these topics. Writers from Turkey who engaged with various forms of Japanese spirituality relied in their analyses often on sources in Western languages. The presentation will examine the originality of their interpretations and explore first-hand observations\, such as a visit to a Buddhist temple in Tokyo\, by Ottomans in early twentieth century Japan. \nAbout the lecturer:\nKatja Triplett holds a doctorate in the Study of Religions\, Japanese Linguistics and Anthropology from Marburg University\, and is currently affiliated at CeMEAS. From 2012 – 2016 she was professor for the Study of Religions at the Department of East Asian Studies\, University of Göttingen. Currently she is a lecturer in the Study of Religions at the Study of Religions Unit\, Institute for Theology and the Study of Religions\, Leibniz University Hannover.\nHer current research projects are Japanese Buddhist medicine (500-1600 CE) and religious ideas and aesthetics from Japan in the late Ottoman Empire and modern Turkey. \n
