Smith 2 To my mother, who generated my fascination for all things historical 3 ACKNOWLEDGMENTS I would like to thank Jon Sensbach and Jessica Harland-Jacobs for their patience and edification throughout the entire writing process. I would also like to thank Ida Altman, Jack Davis, and Richmond Brown for holding my feet to the path and making me a better historian. I owe a special debt to Jim Cusack, John Nemmers, and the rest of the staff at the P.K. Yonge Library of Florida History and Special Collections at the University of Florida for introducing me to this topic and allowing me the freedom to haunt their facilities and guide me through so many stages of my research. I would be sorely remiss if I did not thank Steve Noll for his efforts in promoting the University of Florida’s history honors program, Phi Alpha Theta; without which I may never have met Jim Cusick. Most recently I have been humbled by the outpouring of appreciation and friendship from the wonderful people of St. Augustine, Florida, particularly the National Association of Colonial Dames, the ladies of the Women’s Exchange, and my colleagues at the St. Augustine Lighthouse and Museum and the First America Foundation, who have all become cherished advocates of this project.

  • The Mountain Is High, and the Emperor Is Far Away: States and Smuggling Networks at the Sino-Vietnamese Border
    The Mountain Is High, and the Emperor Is Far Away: States and Smuggling Networks at the Sino-Vietnamese Border Qingfei Yin The intense and volatile relations between China and Vietnam in the dyadic world of the Cold War have drawn scholarly attention to the strategic concerns of Beijing and Hanoi. In this article I move the level of analysis down to the border space where the peoples of the two countries meet on a daily basis. I examine the tug-of-war between the states and smuggling networks on the Sino-Vietnamese border during the second half of the twentieth century and its implications for the present-day bilateral relationship. I highlight that the existence of the historically nonstate space was a security concern for modernizing states in Asia during and after the Cold War, which is an understudied aspect of China’s relations with Vietnam and with its Asian neighbors more broadly. The border issue between China and its Asian neighbors concerned not only territorial disputes and demarcation but also the establishment of state authority in marginal societies. Keywords: smuggler, antismuggling, border, Sino-Vietnamese relations, tax. Historically, the Chinese empire and, to a lesser extent, the Dai Nam empire that followed the Chinese bureaucratic model had heavyweight states with scholar-officials chosen by examination in the Confucian classics (Woodside 1971). However, as the proverb goes, the mountain is high, and the emperor is far away. Vast distances and weak connections existed between the central government and ordinary people. Central authorities thus had little influence over local affairs, including their own street-level bureaucracies.

This study seeks to examine the role of culturally relevant texts and comprehension strategy instruction in the literacy engagement of African American adolescent males. Following Garth-McCullough’s (2002) findings that highlight the positive correlation between African American students’ background knowledge and the comprehension of culturally relevant texts, this study modified Garth-McCullough’s (2002) design and explored nine, 9th grade private, boarding school African American male students’ reading comprehension and engagement with culturally relevant texts.

When teaching them Thai words or phrases, Jariya asked her stu­ dents to tell her the correspond­ ing Chinese for them so that she could learn. Her family and friends also helped with her learning and practice. In 2017, Jariya applied to the Chinese Government Scholar­ ship program to study at Guang­ xi University.
