SUMMARY:Lecture: Confucian Role Ethics: A Challenge to the Ideology of Individualism
DESCRIPTION:Lecture\nAkademisches Konfuzius-Institut Göttingen presents:\nConfucian Role Ethics: A Challenge to the Ideology of Individualism\nWednesday\, Nov. 9\, 2016 · 4 pm\, ZHG 003\nRoger T. Ames\, Humanities Chair Professor\nat Peking University \nIn the introduction of Chinese philosophy and culture into the Western academy\, we have tended to theorize and conceptualize this antique tradition by appeal to familiar categories. Confucian role ethics is an attempt to articulate a sui generis moral philosophy that allows this tradition to have its own voice. \nThis holistic philosophy is grounded in the primacy of relationality\, and is a challenge to a foundational liberal individualism that has defined persons as discrete\, autonomous\, rational\, free\, and often self-interested agents. Confucian role ethics begins from a relationally constituted conception of person\, takes family roles and relations as the entry point for developing moral competence\, invokes moral imagination and the growth in relations that it can inspire as the substance of human morality\, and entails a human-centered\, a-theistic religiousness that stands in sharp contrast to the Abrahamic religions. \nAbout the lecturer: \nRoger T. Ames is Distinguished Humanities Chair Professor at Peking University\, a Berggruen Fellow\, and former Professor of Philosophy at the University of Hawai’i. He is former editor of Philosophy East & West and China Review International. Ames has authored several interpretative studies of Chinese philosophy and culture: Thinking Through Confucius (1987)\, Anticipating China (1995)\, and Thinking From the Han (1998) (all with D.L. Hall)\, and most recently Confucian Role Ethics: A Vocabulary (2011). His publications also include translations of Chinese classics: Sun-tzu: The Art of Warfare (1993); Sun Pin: The Art of Warfare (1996) (with D.C. Lau); the Confucian Analects (1998) and the Classic of Family Reverence: The Xiaojing (2009) (both with H. Rosemont)\, Focusing the Familiar: The Zhongyong (2001)\, and The Daodejing (with D.L. Hall) (2003). Almost all of his publications are now available in Chinese translation\, including his philosophical translations of Chinese canonical texts. He has most recently been engaged in compiling the new Blackwell Sourcebook of Classical Chinese Philosophy\, and in writing articles promoting a conversation between American pragmatism and Confucianism. \nImage by: Bernhard Wintersperger\, IMG_1176\, CC BY-SA 2.0\, \nhttps://www.flickr.com/photos/bwintersperger/8776462999/

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

DESCRIPTION:Lecture:\nThe Powers of Xi Jinping\nProf. Kerry Brown (King’s College London)\nVenue: VG 0.606\nDate: Wednesday\, 28.06.2017\, 18.00 – 20.00 Uhr\nOrganizers: Centre for Modern East Asian Studies & Department for Political Science\nAbstract:\nThis year will see the 19th Party Congress\, marking a moment of re-evaluation for the Communist Party policy and elite leadership. Under Xi since 2012 there has been what is claimed to have been a concentration of power within his hands. But how can we best understand this power\, and what sense does it make to say that Xi is the new Mao of China? What is his political programme\, and how does it relate to the organisation he is meant to be serving and leading to a sustainable future – the Communist Party of China.’ \nPresenter:\nKerry Brown is Professor of Chinese Studies and Director of the Lau China Institute at King’s College\, London. His main interests are in the politics and society of modern China\, in its international relations and its political economy.

SUMMARY:The Beginning of the Century: A Reconsideration on the 20th Century in Chinese/Global History
DESCRIPTION:Lecture\n\nThe Beginning of the Century: A Reconsideration on the 20th Century in Chinese/Global History\nProf. WANG Hui (Tsinghua University)\n\nOrt: Adam-von-Trott-Saal\, Alte Mensa am Wilhelmsplatz\nDatum: 12.07.2017\, 18.00 – 20.00 Uhr\nOrganizers:\nAkademisches Konfuzius-Institut Göttingen &\nDepartment of East Asian Studies &\nMax Planck Institute for the Study of Religious and Ethnic Diversity\n \n\nAbstract:\nAt the beginning of the 20th century\, the alien idea of century began to replace other traditional concepts of chronology in China and reshaped Chinese idea of time. Following the application of 20th century in Chinese context\, other related concepts such as 19th century\, 18th century and their sequence emerged as derivatives of 20th century. Before 1900\, the concept of century had almost not been discussed in this sense in China and never used as the self-consciousness of our era. The notion of century is closely connected with the 20th century\, its distinction from past eras being not just a simple temporal demarcation but an understanding of singular propensity of the time\, which render the history of the\nothers into a history of one’s own\, while situating it within history in toto for explanation and identification. This is the birth of global synchronicity in the history of China. How did intellectuals theorized the idea of 20th century? This talk will examine the birth of the notion of the 20th century in China from an intellectual history perspective and analyze its particular position in the history of China from the perspectives of time (history)\, space\, self-identification\, social ideals and etc.\n\nPresenter: \nWang Hui is a Changjiang Scholar Professor in the Department of Chinese Literature and the Department of History\, Tsinghua University\, and is Director of the Tsinghua Institute for Advanced Studies in the Humanities and Social Sciences. His recent publications include China’s Twentieth Century (London/New York\, Verso\, 2016)\,  and China from Empire to Nation-State (two volumes) (Cambridge\, Mass: Harvard University Press\, 2014).\n

SUMMARY:Conceptions of the World in 20th-Century Chinese Historiography
DESCRIPTION:Conceptions of the World in 20th-Century Chinese Historiography\nTime: 26-27 October 2017\nPlace: Göttingen\, Germany\nOrganizer: Dr. Xin Fan\, State University of New York at Fredonia\n  \n \nOver the course of the twentieth century\, the constant writing and rewriting of history reflect aspects of the changing conceptions of the “world” in China.  Through various lenses – including but not limited to nation-states\, empires\, races\, civilizations\, cultures\, and classes – Chinese historians both creatively imagined global time and space and actively negotiated China’s position in it. This conference will posit new questions about the formation of Chinese worldviews by focusing on historiography as its primary field of inquiry. It will investigate a variety of ways in which Chinese historians constructed and deconstructed temporal and spatial concepts such as “Asian\,” “Asiatic\,” and “China.” In that manner\, the workshop will also establish an exchange between the field of China studies and global and transregional studies. A cohort of leading scholars from China\, North America\, and Europe have already committed their participation in this event\, and Professor Ge Zhaoguang from Fudan University will deliver a key speech during the event. \nThe conference is jointly hosted by the Göttingen Department of East Asian Studies\, the Center for Modern East Asian Studies and the Academic Confucius Institute. Outside sponsors: Volkswagen Foundation and Andrew W. Mellon Foundation. \n  \nProgram: \n26 October 2017 \nKWZ 0.603 \n18:00 – 20:00 Keynote Speech \nGe\, Zhaoguang (Fudan University) \nGlobal Elements in Traditional Chinese Historiography (in Chinese) \n  \n27 October 2017 \nHistorische Sternwarte \nGeismar Landstr. 11\, 37083 Göttingen \n9:00 – 9:15 Opening Remarks \nFan Xin & Dominic Sachsenmaier \n9:15 – 11:15 Panel I \nMaking Sense of China and the World During the Early 20th Century \nChair: Sabine Dabringhaus (Freiburg) \nHon\, Tze-ki (The City University of Hong Kong) \nLocating China in the World: Newspapers and Textbooks in Late Qing Period \nSchneider\, Julia (Göttingen University) \nWriting a General History of China (Zhongguo tongshi): Thinking about Ethnicity in Early Nationalist Historiography \nStapleton\, Kristin (University at Buffalo) \nPopular History from the Pope of Thick-Black Studies \n11:15 – 11:45 Coffee Break \n11:45 – 13:00 Panel 2 \nProblems of Regionalism\, Universalism and Localism \nChair: Xin Fan (SUNY Fredonia; Global Fellow) \nHan\, Xiaorong (Hong Kong Polytechnic University) \nSoutheast Asia in Twentieth Century Chinese Historiography \nSchneider\, Axel (Göttingen University) \nUniversal progress and particular history: Chinese engagement with concepts of universal history \n13:00 – 14:15 Lunch Break \n14:15 – 16:00 Panel 3 \nChinese World Historical Outlooks and Marxism \nChair: TBA \nFan\, Xin (SUNY Fredonia; Global Fellow) \nThe Forced Analogy: Marxism\, Historiography\, and the Chinese Worldview \nLiu\, Xiaoyuan (University of Virginia) \nThe Chinese Communist Understanding of the World through Tibet in the 1950s \n16:00 – 16:30 Coffee Break \n16:30 – 18:30 Panel 4 \nChallenges and Opportunities of Global Historical Scholarship \nChair: Dominic Sachsenmaier (Göttingen) \nChen\, Huaiyu (Arizona State University) \nThe Rise of the “Asian History” in Mainland China in the 1950s: A Global Perspective \nWang\, Q.

SUMMARY:Lecture: Gendered Religiosity: Patriarchal Structures and Women’s Agency in China
DESCRIPTION:Gendered Religiosity: Patriarchal Structures and Women’s Agency in China\nProf. Mayfair Yang (UC Santa Barbara)\n16. Nov.\, 18:00 – 20:00\, KWZ 0.602\nAbstract: \nThis lecture will examine how social structures of power\, such as patriarchal power\, depend on the vicissitudes of human agency to implement their principles\, opening them up to subtle shifts and reconfigurations in social practice (Anthony Giddens\, Pierre Bourdieu). Traditional religiosities\, whether Christian\, Islamic\, Buddhist\, or others\, are often seen to produce conservative agents of patriarchy\, in both men and women. Writing about the women’s Islamic piety movement in contemporary Egypt\, Saba Mahmood has criticized the narrow definition of women’s agency put forth by liberal Western feminism. She suggests that women’s agency cannot be understood or defined in terms of oppositionality\, critical discourse\, or rebellious acts\, but must also take into account the modesty\, self-effacement\, and self-sacrificing ethos of pious women. Here\, I will examine the non-oppositional religious agency of pious women in rural and small-town Wenzhou. Two divinities in particular\, the regional deity of Chinese popular religion\, known as Goddess Chen the Fourteenth\, and the Buddhist mother goddess Guan Yin\, inspire these women’s religious agency. However\, I depart from Mahmood\, who almost closes herself off from feminist inquiry\, by showing how local women have\, through their self-sacrifice\, religious leadership\, and religious transcendence\, carved out a public space and role for women. In the absence of feminism\, and without directly confronting or resisting patriarchal power\, women’s religious agency has made a social impact and brought changes in local society. \nShort bio: \nMayfair Yang received her Ph.D. in Anthropology from UC Berkeley. She has been a faculty member in the Anthropology Department at UC Santa Barbara\, and is now a Professor in Religious Studies Department and East Asian Studies Department there. Yang was Director of Asian Studies at the University of Sydney in Australia\, and has been visiting scholar at the University of Michigan\, University of Chicago\, Harvard University\, Academia Sinica in Taiwan\, Beijing and Fudan Universities in China\, and the Institute for Advanced Study in Princeton. She is the author of Gifts\, Favors\, & Banquets: the Art of Social Relationships in China\, and editor of Chinese Religiosities: Afflictions of Modernities & State Formation\, andPlaces of Their Own: Women’s Public Sphere in Transnational China. Her forthcoming book: Re-enchanting Modernity: Ritual Economy & Religious Civil Society in Wenzhou\, China (Duke University Press). She is also working on a second\, more theoretical book on Wenzhou religiosity and politics.

SUMMARY:Lecture Series: Poverty Alleviation as an Instrument of Technical Governance in Rural China
DESCRIPTION:Poverty Alleviation as an Instrument of Technical Governance in Rural China\nProf. Xiong Yuegen (Peking University)\n Thursday\, 07.12.2017\, 18:00 (c.t.) – 20:00\, KWZ 0.602 \nAbstract:\nIn the past decades\, China has achieved a great success in poverty reduction by helping more than 800 million of poor farmers out of poverty trap. However\, Chinese government has made a series of serious efforts on social policy implementation in rural areas\, poverty as a problematic persistent issue is still perplexing owing to institutional constraints and policy failure. In 2015\, the Party and central government launched a new national campaign entitled the Targeted Poverty Alleviation Programme aiming to eradicate the problem of poverty in rural areas by 2020. In this lecture\, I will mainly discuss the following issues: First\, how does this national campaign on poverty reduction in the new era differ from the previous ones? Second\, what is the main impact of the targeted poverty reduction programme on the farmers’ life and local government? Third\, what are the main limitations of the top-down model of poverty reduction programme in the centralized regime and its implications for the socio-economic development in future in China. Based on the field research conducted in Jiangxi Province\, the author will link the empirical data with theoretical interpretation on the ongoing social changes in the country. \nBio of the Speaker: \nYuegen Xiong is Professor and Director\, The Centre for Social Policy Research (CSPR) in the Department of Sociology at Peking University\, China. He is the author of Needs\, Reciprocity and Shared Function: Policy and Practice of Elderly Care in Urban China ( Shanghai Renmin Press\, 2008 )and Social Policy: Theories and Analytical Approaches ( Renmin University Press\, 2009 ) .

SUMMARY:Lecture： China and the World in 1900: Stories of the Boxers and the First Global War
DESCRIPTION:China and the World in 1900: Stories of the Boxers and the First Global War\nProf. Jeffrey Wasserstrom (UC Irvine)\n Wednesday\, 13.12.2017\, 18:00 (c.t.) – 20:00\,\nKWZ 0.609 \nAbstract:\nThis illustrated lecture\, entitled “China and the World in 1900: Stories of the Boxers and the First Global War\,” revisits the anti-Christian uprising and international invasion that convulsed the Qing Empire during the final year of the nineteenth century\, paying particular attention to the varied ways these events were understood in different places at the time and the diverse kinds of stories that have been told about them since. As different as the world of 1900 is from our own\, especially when it comes to China’s strength now as opposed to weakness then\, we can see in the Boxer uprising and the response by an Allied Army made up of soldiers from Germany\, Japan\, Britain\, the United States and four other nations and empires many intimations of many things to come in the troubled twentieth century that was about to start and in our own anxious age. \nShort bio:\nJeffrey Wasserstrom\, who received his master’s from Harvard and his PhD. From Berkeley\, is Chancellor’s Professor of History at UC Irvine\, where he edits the Journal of Asian Studies (term ending June 2018) and holds courtesy affiliations with the Law School and program in Literary Journalism.  He has written five books\, including Student Protests in Twentieth-Century China (1991) and Eight Juxtapositions: China through Imperfect Analogies from Mark Twain to Manchukuo (Penguin 2016).  He has edited or co-edited several others\, including\, most recently\, The Oxford Illustrated History of Modern China (2016).  In addition to writing for academic journals\, he has contributed to many general interest venues\, among them the New York Times\, the TLS\, and the Los Angeles Review of Books (LARB).  He is an advising editor at LARB and an academic editor of its associated China Channel. \n  \n  \nDesign & Image Selection: CeMEAS\nImage: ralph repo， Qing Court Return\, The Emperess Dowerger [1902] George E.

SUMMARY:Lecture: Sovereignty\, Natural Law\, and the Ironies of Decolonization: India and the Tokyo Trial
DESCRIPTION:Sovereignty\, Natural Law\, and the Ironies of Decolonization: India and the Tokyo Trial\nProf.Milinda Banerjee( Ludwig-Maximilian University )\n Monday\, 29.01.2018\, 16:00(c.t.) – 18:00\, ZESS\, AP26 \nAbstract:\nIs the demand for codified international criminal justice antithetical to the demand for agonistic decolonization of global political\, military\, and economic power? Or can the establishment of global norms of justice be made compatible with\, and even grounded upon\, anti-colonial and democratic interventions? By analysing Indian involvement in the Tokyo Trial (1946-48)\, this paper foregrounds some of the key complexities at stake in the dialectics between global norm-building and anti-colonial agonism. While existing scholarship on the Tokyo Trial has mainly dwelt upon legal and political history\, I draw upon methodological debates in the nascent field of global intellectual history to sharply focus on the tense relation between sovereignty and natural law which mediated discussions on justice in relation to colonialism\, in the Tokyo moment as well as in its long aftermath. I give particular attention to the dissenting Indian judge at the trial\, Radhabinod Pal (1886-1967)\, and contextualize his controversial judgment in relation to (anti-) colonial politics and justice\, not merely in relation to the Japanese Empire – and the decades-old Indian engagement with Japanese models of sovereignty – but also in relation to British India\, Dutch Indonesia\, French Indochina\, and Korea. In the process\, I relate the dynamics of the trial to transregional flows in legal-moral vocabularies and the emergence of international legal institutions\, including\, most notably\, the post-war International Law Commission. Simultaneously\, I relate Pal to other Indian actors\, such as Agent General Girja Shankar Bajpai (1891-1954) and Prime Minister Jawaharlal Nehru (1889-1964)\, who related (anti-) imperial anxieties to the politics of the Tokyo Trial. Further\, I show how the trial linked the paradoxes of India’s decolonization to foreign policy debates and questions about ‘race’ in relation to the United States and the United Kingdom. Ultimately\, I theorize about how the Tokyo Trial can shed novel conceptual light on the tortuous ironies involved in decolonization processes\, as regimes of sovereignty – and sovereign violence – were combated\, translated\, and expropriated across Asia through transimperial and transnational entanglements\, often with haunting long-term consequences. \n  \n  \nDesign & Image Selection: CeMEAS\nImage: The International Military Tribunal for the Far East\n \n

SUMMARY:Lecture: Underneath the grand yellow imperial roofs of Martyrs’ Shrines: Taiwan’s colonial past and onwards and the political symbolisms at play
DESCRIPTION:Underneath the grand yellow imperial roofs of Martyrs’ Shrines: Taiwan’s colonial past and onwards and the political symbolisms at play\nDr. Liza Wing Man Kam\nTime: Tuesday\, June 5\, 10:30-12:00\,\nVenue: MPI. Max-Planck Institute for Study of Religious and Ethnic Diversity\, Hermann-Föge-Weg 12 (Villa)\, 37073 Göttingen\n \nAbstract: \nThe paper investigates the shift of power symbolism represented in Shinto Shrines and Martyrs’ Shrines since the colonial era in Taiwan\, through putting architectural/urban design theories into dialogue with political history. Three architectural complexes\, Hualien Martyrs’ Shrine\, Taipei National Revolutionary Martyrs’ Shrine and the Imperial Palace in Peking are interpreted in material and spatial terms. \nHualien Martyrs’ Shrine and the Taipei National Revolutionary Martyrs’ Shrine\, located on the former sites of two annihilated Shinto Shrines built by the Japanese colonisers\, were commissioned and reconstructed by the Republican’s Party in Taiwan in the 1970s. Shifting from being the site enshrined with the spirits who fought to contribute the expansion of the Japanese Empire\, the current Martyrs’ Shrines were designated to commemorate the sacrificed lives who defended the Island of Taiwan in the Sino-Japanese War. Stripped off from the Japanese zukuri (architectural orders for Shinto Shrine constructions)\, the shrines are bedecked with the grand Imperial yellow roofs\, which accommodated the Chinese imperial power in the late Ming and Qing Dynasty– the very power that the Republicans strove to overthrow during the Xinhai Revolution in 1911. \nThrough analysing the Shinto Shrines\, the Martyrs’ Shrines and their material history\, I contend that a continual interplay of political symbolism via architectural representations from different authorities\, emerged from the Japanese colonial era\, followed by the Republicans’ authority since the Post-war era and till now with manipulation of the notion of ‘colonial legacy/ heritage’–essentially never ceases\, despite the situational considerations to the changing political and economic agendas proclaimed. \nBiography: \nDr. Liza Wing Man Kam is Research Fellow (Architecture and Urban Studies) at the Max-Planck Institute for Religious and Ethnics Diversity and Assistant Professor of Urban Studies and Chinese Societies at the Department of East Asian Studies at the Georg-August University of Göttingen. She was trained as architect and later researcher in Hong Kong\, Singapore\, Liverpool\, London\, Paris and Germany. Her work on Hong Kong and Taiwan depicts the transformation of political\, societal and cultural symbolisms represented by the colonial urban heritage in their unique post-colonial settings by illustrating the inter-relation between architecture\, historiography\, identity formation and hence civic awareness. She currently investigates colonial Shinto Shrines in the Japanese occupied Taiwan as both religious space and political symbolisms for enunciating the different powers in post-war Taiwan. Her work puts into dialogue the local memory and the grand narrated history while interpreting the meaning of colonial urban heritage and colonial legacy. \n  \nDesign & Poster: CeMEAS\nImage: National Martyrs Shrine (0732)\, Public Domain

SUMMARY:Lecture: Die Resonanz von Körper und Geist – Zur Philosophie des Geistes im Chinesischen Denken
DESCRIPTION:Die Resonanz von Körper und Geist –\nZur Philosophie des Geistes im Chinesischen Denken\n  \nDr. Dr. Dominique Hertzer\nDonnerstag\, 07.06.2018\, 4 pm (c.t.)\, KWZ 0.607 \n  \nÜbersicht: \nDie chinesische Vorstellung vom „Geist“ (shen 神) wird oftmals mit der westlichen Vorstellung von der „Psyche“ oder „der Seele“ gleichgesetzt. Doch gibt es im Chinesischen Denken überhaupt Vorstellungen\, die unseren Begriffen von Psyche oder Seele entsprechen? Ausgehend von den klassischen Fragen des Leib-Seele Diskurses im Abendland werden wir uns der chinesischen Vorstellung nähern\, die das Verhältnis von Geist (shen 神) und Körper (xing 形) generell als eines der Polarität verhandelt. Es wird zu zeigen sein\, dass die Ebene des Geistig-Seelischen im Chinesischen Denken nicht im Sinne einer Einheit – also des „einen“ Geistes oder der „einen“ Seele -\, sondern in Gestalt einer fünffachen Auffächerung des Geistes zu verstehen ist\, die sich  in Resonanz zu den verschiedenen (korrespondierenden) Aspekten des  Leibes bewegt. Im Zentrum steht die Frage\, ob es in einem derartigen Resonanzverhältnis eine Ursache- Wirkungsbeziehung zwischen Geist und Körper geben kann und welcher Art ihre gegenseitige Beeinflussung ist. Vor dem Hintergrund der gegenwärtigen Diskussion um die Frage nach der Freiheit des menschlichen Willens und des Bewusstseins\, wie sie derzeit in der Philosophie und den Neurowissenschaften geführt wird\, mag der Blick auf das Chinesische Denken vielleicht auch an dieser Stelle eine neue Perspektive zu eröffnen\, die die Diskussion von festgefahrenen Standpunkten befreit. \n  \n

SUMMARY:Lecture: Old society\, New Belief: Religious transformation of Rome and China (1st – 6th c. CE)
DESCRIPTION:Lecture\nMu-chou Poo (Chinese University of Hong Kong):\nOld society\, New Belief: Religious transformation of Rome and China (1st – 6th c. CE)\n\n25. Okt.\, 18:00 – 20:00\, ZHG 004\n \n\n\n\nAbstract:\nRecently scholars in the study of antiquity around the world began to notice a trend of increasing interest in doing comparative studies. How should comparative study\, particularly of the ancient world\, be conducted\, what are the benefits\, what are the issues\, are still problems that draw debates among scholars. This talk intends to use the example of a comparative project to address some of the issues in the comparative study of antiquity. This is a project comparing early Christianity in Rome and early Buddhism in China. Although a conference volume has been published\, the issues are far from being resolved. Further investigation of this subject is needed. \nShort bio:\nProf. Poo Mu-chou received a B.A. in History from National Taiwan University in 1975 and Ph.D. in Ph.D. in Near Eastern Studies from The Johns Hopkins University in 1984. He is a Professor of History and director of the Centre for the Comparative Study of Antiquity at the Chinese University of Hong Kong. His research interests include society and religion in ancient Egypt and China. His major publications include Burial and the Idea of Life and Death: Essay on Ancient Chinese Religion\, Wine and Wine Offering in the Religion of Ancient Egypt\, In Search of Personal Welfare: A View of Ancient Chinese Religion\, Enemies of Civilization: Attitudes toward Foreigners in Ancient Mesopotamia\, Egypt and China and Daily Life in Ancient China. \n\n\n  \n  \nImage: JasonChamberlain\,釋迦牟尼佛 – Shakyamuni Buddha\, CC BY-SA 2.0.\, https://flic.kr/p/7CnDX8

SUMMARY:North-East Asian peripheries in focus: industrialization\, architecture and city planning in Inner Mongolia
DESCRIPTION:Lecture:\nNorth-East Asian peripheries in focus: industrialization\, architecture and city planning in Inner Mongolia\nDr. Christine Moll-Murata (Ruhr-Universität Bochum)\n03.12.2018\, 12:00 bis 14:00 Uhr\nVeranstaltungsort: VG 3.107 \nVeranstalter: Ostasiatisches Seminar\, Co-Host: Akademisches Konfuzius-Institut Göttingen \nAbstract: \nInner Mongolia belongs to the Northeast Asian Frontier Region as defined by Owen Lattimore. Since the beginning of the twentieth century\, this macro-region has been subjected to various political impacts\, Chinese\, Japanese\, and Russian. A recent research initiative based at Bochum and Duisburg sets out to consider especially the transnational and cross-border perspectives that connect this large area\, although it is divided by national frontiers. This talk presents an outlook on Inner Mongolia as a region which so far has not been recognized as one of the centers of industrialization on a global scale. Yet its mineral resources in coal and rare earths are very rich; the Baotou Iron and Steel group is one of the largest steel producers nationwide\, and in agribusiness the Inner Mongolian dairy companies rank topmost in China. How did this come about? Inner Mongolia seems to be a typical latecomer in industrialization with a short colonial history – or a very long one\, depending on the conception of colonialism. This presentation will focus on the period during the first half of the twentieth century\, when industrialization made several starts that were triggered by the competition among all the powers in the field. Its focus will be on the prerequisites of industrial development – infrastructure and communication. \nShort bio: \nChristine Moll-Murata is chair professor at the Department for History of China\, Ruhr University Bochum\, Germany\, and honorary fellow of the International Institute of Social History\, Amsterdam. Her research focuses on labor history of China\, Taiwan\, and Japan\, the history of crafts and guilds in China\, perceptions of the future in East Asia since 1900 and the industrialization of Northeast Asia. Her recent book\, States and Crafts in the Qing Dynasty\, was published with Amsterdam University Press in 2018. \n  \nPicture: Tim Zachernuk\, Mongolian tent\, CC BY-SA 2.0.\, https://flic.kr/p/6EJWG9
