SUMMARY:Lecture: Nationalism and the Crisis of Modernity
DESCRIPTION:Presenter: Prasenjit Duara \nDate: June 3\, 6-8 pm (CEST) \n  \n  \n  \nJoin Zoom Meeting:\nhttps://uni-goettingen.zoom.us/j/97494889145?pwd=SlN6bGhJWUF4dUVObUJFaW4vM282QT09 \nMeeting ID: 974 9488 9145\nPasscode: 269109 \nThis lecture is presented within the framework of the Joint Center for Advanced Studies project “Worldmaking from a Global Perspective: A Dialogue with China” as part of the project “Conceptions of World Order and Their Social Carrier Groups”. \nAbstract \n“Whether or not there is a direct causal relationship\, nationalism is at the heart of all the crises in the modern world and becomes entangled in its effects. As the fundamental source of authority for all modes of governance in the world\, we are beholden to its capacity to resolve these cascading crises. I have long argued that its core confessional and anarchic constitutive form does not afford this capaciousness. It is plain to see this in how the WHO is being hampered in the present pandemic by powerful national interests. “I argue that the nation form is the ‘epistemic engine’ driving the globally circulatory and doxic Enlightenment ideal of the conquest of nature and perpetual growth that sustains the runaway technosphere. The cascading crises that we have already witnessed in this century – financial\, economic\, epidemic and climatological—are rooted significantly in this technosphere. At the same time\, we will have to find our way through and out of these forms to secure a sustainable planet. Drawing from a paradigm of ‘oceanic temporality’ to grasp counter-finalities generated by the epistemic engine I explore the interstitial spaces and counter-flows of social movements that are seeking to develop a post-Enlightenment and a planetary\, rather than a global\, cosmology.” \nAbout Prasenjit Duara \nPrasenjit Duara is the Oscar Tang Chair of East Asian Studies at Duke University. He was born and educated in India and received his PhD in Chinese history from Harvard University.

SUMMARY:Wochen der Hoffnung - Die Pekinger Studentenbewegung
DESCRIPTION:Wochen der Hoffnung – Die Pekinger Studentenbewegung\n2.-31.Mai 1989“\nErlebnisbericht von Helmut Opletal\n8. Juni 2021\, 16:00 – 18:00 (CET)\nZoom-Link: https://s.gwdg.de/5tnkdO \nAnfang Mai 1989 fuhr Helmut Opletal im Auftrag des ORF nach Peking\, um über den historischen China-Besuch des sowjetischen Staats- und Parteichefs Michail Gorbatschow zu berichten. Schließlich verbrachte er vier Wochen in China\, und nicht Gorbatschow\, sondern die Studentenproteste wurden zum Schwerpunkt seiner Berichterstattung. In dieser Zeit (2.-31. Mai 1989) entstanden in den Wochen vor der Niederschlagung der Bewegung hunderte persönliche Fotos. Es sind keine Bilder der Panzer und tragischen Ereignisse von Anfang Juni\, sondern Szenen voller Zuversicht und Hoffnung vor allem junger Menschen auf mehr Freiheit\, Demokratie und einen nachhaltigen gesellschaftlichen Wandel.  \nDie Fotos dieser Präsentation und zahlreiche weitere finden Sie unter https://photos.app.goo.gl/Kws7c5kuc763Lks38.  \nDr. Helmut OPLETAL\, Jg. 1952\, studierte an der Universität Wien Publizistik\, Politikwissenschaft und Sinologie. 1973  gehörte er zu den ersten österreichischen Austauschstudenten in China\, zwischen 1976 und 2009 war er Redakteur und Reporter für den ORF\, 1980-85 auch China-Korrespondent mehrerer deutschsprachiger Zeitungen. Seit 2002 ist Opletal als Lehrbeauftragter\, Gastprofessor und Projektmitarbeiter am Institut für Ostasienwissenschaften der Universität Wien tätig. \nVeranstalter: Centre for Modern East Asian Studies & Ostasiatisches Seminar an der Universität Göttingen\,  Institut für Ostasienwissenschaften – Sinologie an der Universität Wien \n  \nImage: Helmut Opletal\, “Demokratie - unser gemeinsames Ideal“ (Helmut Opletal auf dem Tian’anmen-Platz\, Mai 1989)\n

SUMMARY:The 17th Göttingen East Asia Research Salon
DESCRIPTION:100 Years of CCP History – 100 Jahre KPCh History in three keys: The Cultural Revolution as event\, memory\, and theory\nResearch Salon & Discussion\nTime:  June 22\, 2021\, 6-8 p.m. (CEST)\nZoom link: https://s.gwdg.de/6OYGsF \n  \nLooking at 100 years of CCP history\, the Cultural Revolution emerges as a key event in post-49 history. The idea is that understanding the Cultural Revolution is crucial to understanding both the Maoist period and the post-Maoist period of CCP history. In no socialist country has the leader of the Communist Party dared to mobilize the population against the Party\, and to some degree\, it is still a mystery that the CCP survived this attack. Mr Cui Jinke\, doctoral student from the University of Vienna\, will introduce insights from his doctoral project on factionalism in CCP history\, and Susanne Weigelin-Schwiedrzik as well as Sascha Klotzbücher will discuss his findings in the context of research strategies that focus on memory and theoretical approaches to explaining the Cultural Revolution. \n\nPresenter: Cui Jinke (University of Vienna)\nModerator: Sascha Klotzbücher (University of Göttingen)\nDiscussants: Susanne Weigelin-Schwiedrzik (University of Vienna) &\nFelix Wemheuer (University of Cologne) \n  \nPancake and Ladder: Inside Local Factional Politics during the Cultural Revolution\nCui Jinke (University of Vienna) \n The Cultural Revolution (CR)\, known as the Ten Years of Chaos\, is the most sustained and intensive factional struggle in the 100-year history of the Chinese Communist Party. However\, the official party history records tend to be silent and vague on the content of factional politics\, especially when it comes to the local levels of the political process. Moreover\, the lack of local sources makes it more difficult to analyze its variety outside the center. On the local level\, do the factional conflicts occur inside the rebel groups\, or between the rebels and the conservatives supported by the army? Is it a game of “the winner takes it all”\, or is it a “balance of power” game? By analyzing the primary sources from the process\, oral history records\, and local chronicles from Shandong province\, this presentation will show that policy reversals have repeatedly occurred in the process of local factional politics (called turn over pancakes翻烙饼 during the CR). A typical factional circle starts with a crisis initiated as a result for a certain central political agenda.  Then a specific group is mobilized to attack selected targets. When the crisis rises to a certain level\, the campaign initiator intervenes on behalf of the criticized target and offers a way out. This tactic is described as “setting aladder架梯子“. Through this method\, the campaign initiator tries to gain the gratitude and loyalty from those factions which had been under attack. In local factional practice\, the optimal solution\, i.e that the winner takes it all\, was rarely achieved. Instead\, usual procedure is constant internal split and repeated balancing of power. This finding will contribute to understanding the complicated local factional political process in CR. \n  \nCui Jinke崔金珂 is a PhD student at the Department of East Asian Studies – Sinology (University of Vienna). He obtained her MA at Peking University\, majoring in the History of the CCP. For his research on the Cultural Revolution Cui Jinke conducted fieldwork in Shandong and Shanxi provinces\, collecting local archival materials and conducting oral history interviews since 2013. \nOrganizers:\nCentre for Modern East Asian Studies & Department of East Asian Studies at the University of Göttingen\, Lehrstuhl für Moderne China Studien\, Universität zu Köln \nPicture: Cui Jinke
