SUMMARY:German Japanese Colloquium 2015
DESCRIPTION:German- Japanese Colloqium 2015\nKnowledge Transfer across Borders: Integrative Approaches\nWednesday\, January 14\, 2015\n4pm – 6:30pm\nAssembly Hall\, Wilhelmsplatz 1\, 37073 Göttingen \nThe festive opening of the international conference on “Knowledge Transfer Across Borders” is open to all.\n \nIn today’s globalized\, knowledge-intensive world\, the accumulation and transfer of knowledge has become a key success factor for organizations. However\, knowledge transfer is complex due to the difficulties in defining\, storing and circulating knowledge. This challenge increases even more when knowledge is transferred across national\, cultural and linguistic borders. Despite the importance of the topic\, prior research has been fragmented and sometimes inconclusive\, partly due to disciplinary boundaries. The two keynote speakers address these challenges from their respective academic backgrounds\, neurobiology and international business. \nKeynotes by\nProf. Dr. Atsushi Iriki (RIKEN Brain Science Institute\, Wako City\, Japan)\nEvolutionary Biology of the Human Mind\nProf. Dr. Markus Pudelko (International Business\, University of Tübingen)\nKnowledge Transfer in Multinational Cooperations

SUMMARY:The 6th East Asia Research Salon
DESCRIPTION:The 6th Göttingen East Asia Research Salon\nJun Chu\n“Urban citizenship\, mobility and border regime. Contested social spaces of migrant workers in Shanghai.”\nDate: July 15\, 2014\, 6.15pm-7.30pm\nPlace: CeMEAS-Meeting Room\, KWZ-Building\, Heinrich-Düker-Weg 14\n \nAbstract:\nThe growing mass protests and movements of migrant workers in China have become a highly focused issue for years. They are described either as “contesting citizenship in urban china” (Solinger 1999) or as “the making of a new working class” (Chan and Pun 2009). In my dissertation\, these phenomena will be understood in connection with citizenship\, mobility regime and the production of social spaces from a critical perspective. In reference to the concepts of “act of citizenship/doing citizenship”\, “differential inclusion” and “ethnographical border regime analysis” from critical migration and citizenship studies\, this work will focus on the social processes\, how urban citizenship in Shanghai is emerging in contestation and conflicts. In what way do the local governments make policy and use strategies to include migrant workers with gradated status of “urban citizen”? How do the migrant workers in Shanghai practice urban citizenship and claim their rights in daily life and workplace? Furthermore\, how are urban spaces produced and negotiated through the assemblage of these multi-scale practices? The research is based on empirical fieldwork in Shanghai with mixed qualitative methods incl. narrative interviews\, participated observation and discourse analysis etc. The next fieldwork is planned for the upcoming autumn. \nJun Chu\nSince 10/2013 PhD candidate in Cultural Anthropology\, University of Göttingen\, Germany\nTitle of Dissertation: Urban citizenship\, mobility and border regime.

SUMMARY:Lecture: Lord Yang - A God and His Special Role in Local Politics of Late Qing China (1840 - 1867)
DESCRIPTION:Lecture: Lord Yang – A God and His Special Role in Local Politics of Late Qing China (1840 – 1867)\nMonday\, July 14\, 2014\n2.15pm\, KWZ Room 0.608\nProf. Dr. Lo Shih- chieh \nIn early February 1855\, a group of “local bandits” led by Qu Zhenhan occupied Yueqing city of Wenzhou prefecture for a week. According to Qing officials’ report\, this incident was suppressed by the divine manifestation of Lord Yang\, a popular local deity in Wenzhou. Instead of focusing on how Qing authority regained control over local society\, this presentation takes advantage of the local materials available in Wenzhou to explore the following two questions: How does a local deity function politically in local society? What is the role of popular religion in local politics and even national politics in late Qing China? This local history study sheds light on the significance of popular religion in Chinese political culture. \nPicture: Ashley Wang\, Flames [hdr] *Explored*\, CC BY-ND 2.0\, https://www.flickr.com/photos/ashley-rly/3783945913/

SUMMARY:The 5th East Asia Research Salon
DESCRIPTION:The 5th Göttingen East Asia Research Salon\n Marina Schmitz\n“Preventing Labor Turnover of Blue Collar Workers in China – Tilting at Windmills?” \nDate: June 17\, 2014\, 6.15pm-7.30pm\nPlace: CeMEAS-Meeting Room\, KWZ-Building\, Heinrich-Düker-Weg 14\n \n \nMarina Schmitz\, University of Göttingen\nRetaining employees is the crucial issue of HR managers in China nowadays. Especially manufacturing companies in China report turnover rates of 70 percent and above. Thus\, it is further necessary to deepen academic understanding of the mindset of blue collar workers\, specifically\, psychological and sociological aspects of voluntary turnover behavior among this cohort\, being the driving force of the Chinese economy. To get further insights into the topic\, I conducted interviews with blue collar workers and HR managers in China regarding work related issues\, especially asking them about influence factors of labor turnover decisions. Drawing on the knowledge I acquired in the interviews\, I am currently developing a survey which should enable me to answer the following research questions: What kind of incentives should the companies offer to make the blue collar workers stay? Which job characteristics are important for the blue collar workers regarding long-term retention? Is there a difference between the blue collar workers working in different regions or differing in demographic aspects? \nMarina Schmitz is research associate and doctoral student at the Chair for HRM and Asian Business at the University of Göttingen. She obtained her master in Sinology (Classical Sinology\, Economic Studies) at the University of Trier in 2012. In her research she focusses on retention of factory workers and the influence factors of labour turnover in China. \n  \nCeMEAS will provide coffee and light refreshments\, however feel free to bring along additional food and drinks.

SUMMARY:Lecture: Chinese Multinationals going Global: Strategies and Challenges
DESCRIPTION:Lecture: Chinese Multinationals going Global: Strategies and Challenges\nThursday\, June 12\, 2014\n4pm\, Theologicum Hörsaal T01\nProf. Dr. Klaus Meyer \nOver the past decade many Chinese enterprises have expanded their operations overseas and became substantive players in several industries and host countries.\nThis talk will explore the strategies that these Chinese companies pursue to catch up withglobal industry leaders\, focusing in particular on processes of learning about international\nbusiness operations\, and the acquisition of strategic assets overseas. It will also explore differences in these strategies between the first wave of overseas investments by state enterprises that still dominate many sectors in China\, and the second wave led by private companies in a wide range of manufacturing sectors. Despite the impressive acceleration of outward investments\, Chinese multinationals face considerable challenges managing\ntheir overseas operations\, especially acquired business units. The talk will thus conclude by outlining these operational and cross-cultural challenges\, and discuss approaches to managing them.\n \nPhoto: Mike Behnken\, I ♥ Shanghai\, CC BY-ND 2.0\, https://www.flickr.com/photos/mikebehnken/5118469004/

SUMMARY:Lecture: Post - Orientalist Perceptions of Tibet between China and the West: Essentialization\, Geopolitics and Topophilia
DESCRIPTION:Lecture: Post – Orientalist Perceptions of Tibet between China and the West: Essentialization\, Geopolitics and Topophilia\nWednesday\, June 11\, 2014\n12pm\, VG. Room 2.101\nDr. Dan Smyer Yu \nThe appearance of Tibet is unprecedentedly frequent in global discourses of humanitarian issues\, climate changes\, environmental conservation\, peace-building\, religion-science dialogue\, social engagement of Buddhism\, creative arts\, and New Age Spiritualty in the twenty-first century. It continues to spark imaginations of all sorts globe-wise. Scholarly critiques of “the imagined Tibet” as a popular cultural trend were initiated in the 1990s to de-essentialize the idealized image of Tibet and Tibetans. Since then a body of critical literature has quickly grown\, examining the causes and the nature of such popular fixation on things Tibetan. It undoubtedly has critical impact on the public understanding of Tibet in the modern context; however\, it is also noticeable that the initially intended de-essentializing effort is evolving into a recognizable essentialization of those who have strong interest in Tibetan culture\, religion\, and environment. This paper is intended to critique how the power-representation discourse adopted from Edward Said’s Orientalism is utilized in the context of modern Tibetan studies. Through case studies of perceptions of Tibet in China and the West\, it proposes a post-Orientalist perspective from which the unique landscape of Tibet is understood as the foundation for a type of topophilia\, which antecedently triggers what scholars characterize as “imagination\,” “fantasy\,” or “hallucination.” \nPhoto: Tibet\, rickz\, CC BY-NC-ND 2.0\, https://www.flickr.com/photos/rickz/9180133912/

SUMMARY:Lecture Series: Wie traditionell ist die Traditionelle Chinesische Medizin wirklich?
DESCRIPTION:Lecture: Wie traditionell ist die Traditionelle Chinesische Medizin wirklich?\nFriday\, May 23\, 2014\n2pm\, KWZ\, Room 0.608\nDr. phil. Dr. rer. med. Dominique Herzter \n“Chinesische Medizin ist ein großes Schatzhaus\, das wir gründlich ans Licht holen und weiter entwickeln sollten” (Mao Zedong) \nAnders als die Bezeichnung „Traditionelle Chinesische Medizin “ (TCM) vermuten lässt\, handelt es sich hier weniger um eine Medizin\, die primär auf traditionelles medizinisches Wissen zurückgreift\, als vielmehr um eine „moderne“\, von Mao Zedong persönlich initiierte Erfindung. Dieses medizinische System „TCM“ ist stark von der Schulmedizin beeinflusst ist und hat in China nicht nur das Monopol auf die Ausübung ostasiatischer Medizin\, sondern dient inzwischen als (wirtschaftliches) Modell für die weltweit florierende Chinesische Medizin. Doch nachdem inzwischen sowohl in den westlichen Ländern wie in China selbst der Ruf nach der „eigentlichen Traditionellen Chinesischen Medizin“ laut wird\, geht der Vortrag der Frage nach\, was unter dieser traditionellen Medizin zu verstehen sein könnte und ob sie in Gestalt einer postulierten „Daoistischen Medizin“ wieder zu finden ist. \nPicture: Ross Pollack\, Chinese Medicine Man\, CC BY-NC-SA 2.0\,https://www.flickr.com/photos/rossap/8289758503/ \n\n

SUMMARY:Lecture Series: Japan and the World of Islam\, a transnational history of nationalism\, modernism and empire
DESCRIPTION:Lecture: Japan and the World of Islam\, a transnational history of nationalism\, modernism and empire\nWednesday\, May 21\, 2014\n6pm (s.t.)\, KWZ\, Room 3.601\nProf. Selçuk Esenbel \nThe Japanese interest in the “world of Islam” between 1868-1945 displays the history of nationalism\, modernism\, and empire from a global perspective at multiple levels. The little-known interaction between Japan and Muslim states (Ottoman Turkey\, Qajar Iran\, Egypt) as well as Muslim ethnic and national communities in Eurasia reveals international relations between Non-European states and transnational connections that was parallel to the world order dominated by the Western Great Powers. The Japanese interest extended to the study of Islam and the ethnic and national populations such as the Turkic peoples of Inner Asia and Central Asia. Japanese and Muslim intellectuals interacted through the vision of Pan-Asianism and Pan-Islamism that represents mutual imaginations about alternative modernities. The Japanese interest in Islamic affairs and the study of Muslim Asia and the Middle East coupled with the Japanese network among Muslims became part of imperial Japan’s geo-political strategy for empire building in Asia. \nPicture: Prof. Selçuk Esenbel

SUMMARY:Lecture Series: Developing security\, securing development?
DESCRIPTION:Lecture: Developing security\, securing development? Chinese foreign policy\, norms evolution and the challenges of security in Africa\nThursday\, May 8\, 2014\n2pm\, Room VG 2.101\nDr. Daniel Large \nDeepening conflict in South Sudan is once again increasing interest in China’s role in the country\, in neighboring Sudan and\, more generally\, China’s changing engagement with conflict and security dynamics in Africa. China’s relations with fragile and conflict affected states is well recognized. Recognizing that post-conflict environments and state fragility pose a unique set of challenges to its growing economic interests on the continent\, the Chinese government has sought to respond through a process of adaptation and policy engagement. Using the case of South Sudan and Sudan to illustrate broader themes\, this seminar will examine China’s negotiation of development and security\, and why and how this has travelled from the margins to a much more central part of China’s emerging role in Africa. \nPicture: S.

SUMMARY:Lecture Series: Wahnsinn oder Weisheit?
DESCRIPTION:LECTURE: Wahnsinn oder Weisheit? Eine chinesische Perspektive\nFriday\, April 25\, 2014\n2pm\, Room KWZ 0.608\nDr. phil. Dr. rer. med. Dominique Hertzer \nWas ist Vernunft? Der Wahnsinn aller. Was ist Wahnsinn? Die Vernunft des Einzelnen. Was nennt Ihr Wahrheit? Die Täuschung\, die Jahrhunderte alt geworden. Was Täuschung? Die Wahrheit\, die nur eine Minute gelebt. (Spinoza) \nÜber die Nähe von Genie\, Weisheit und Wahnsinn ist seit dem Altertum immer wieder diskutiert und philosophiert worden\, im Abendland wie in China. Jüngsten Studien zufolge soll diese Verbindung nun auch biologisch in Gestalt einer bestimmten Genvariante nachgewiesen sein. Der Weise wie der Wahnsinnige offenbaren die Grenzen der „normalen Gesellschaft“ und werden meist als bedrohliche Herausforderung für die Aufrechterhaltung des vermeintlich Normalen wahrgenommen. Zugleich birgt der Wahn jedoch wertvolles Potential\, um Neues und in den Grenzen der Normalität „Ungedachtes“ zu erfahren\, mit der Aufforderung\, eben diese Grenzen zu überschreiten. Im Zentrum des Vortrages steht die Frage\, welche Erkenntnisse und welche Potentiale den Verrückten im Chinesischen Denken zugedacht wurden\, um dem Sinn des Wahns auf die Spur zu kommen. \nPicture: Stephen Dettling\, Martin Mania SCX500; CC BY-NC 2.0\, https://www.flickr.com/photos/sdettling/2404125601/

SUMMARY:Lecture Series: Des Kaisers neue Kleider? Chinas Führungs- Rolle in den G20
DESCRIPTION:LECTURE: Des Kaisers neue Kleider? Chinas Führungs- Rolle in den G20 \nThursday\, April 24\, 2014\n 2pm\, Room VG 2.101\n Prof. Dr. Jörn – Carsten Gottwald (Ruhr – Universität Bochum) \n  \nDer kontinuierliche Aufstieg der Volksrepublik China zu einer wirtschaftlichen und politischen „major power“ (Xi Jinping) hat zu einer breiten Debatte über eine chinesisch geprägte neue Weltordnung geführt. Mit dem Ausbruch der globalen Finanzkrise (GFK) 2007/2008 scheint sich diese tektonische Verschiebung der Weltpolitik vom Trans-Atlantik zum Pazifik zu beschleunigen. Gleichwohl stellen Beobachter des wohl wichtigsten Forums zur Reaktion auf die GFK\, den G 20\, ernüchtert ein Ausbleiben ambitionierter chinesischer Reformvorschläge fest. Woran liegt diese augenscheinliche Passivität? Verweigert sich die Volkrepublik China wirklich der Übernahme einer neuen Rolle oder lassen sich Anzeichen für eine Neuorientierung – gerade nach dem Führungswechsel in der Staats und Parteispitze – finden? \nPicture: Dowing Street; G20 London Summit\, CC BY-NC-ND 2.0\, http://www.flickr.com/photos/downingstreet/3406897568/

SUMMARY:LECTURE: The Internationalization of China’s Uyghur Issues
DESCRIPTION:LECTURE:\nThe Internationalization of China’s Uyghur Issues\nJulie Yu-wen Chen\, University College Cork\nTuesday\,  December 17\,  2013 · 6 pm\, KWZ\,  Room 0.607 \nThis lecture explores the operation and coalition-building of Uyghur diasporic organizations in democratic countries. Since some Uyghur organizations have been lent notable legitimacy by liberal democracies and international governmental organizations\, they can no longer be considered merely splintered members of a far-flung diaspora locked in a one-sided struggle with Beijing. Uyghur activists can and do use their hard-won legitimacy as legal migrants and asylum seekers to influence politics in their host countries. \nAnd while they pose no direct security threat to the countries they presently reside in\, their use of democratic channels in their host countries serve to extend the Uyghur conflict into nations around the world. This study is a timely one\, as it shines a light on how an issue concerning a minority in China has been catapulted onto the wider global political stage. For instance\, Uyghur organizations have seized on the Obama administration’s pledge to close the Guantanamo Bay prison to boost global awareness of Uyghur issues and call on countries like Germany\, Switzerland and Australia to take in Uyghurs who they argue were “unjustly” detained at Guantanamo Bay.Whether the Uyghur lobby is capable of influencing these decisions\, which are matters that can only be decided by sovereign states\, is less important than the fact that Uyghur groups are able to successfully use the issue to raise their visibility.
