  • Mao a Feminist?
    International Journal of Current Chinese Studies. 1 (2010): 159‐167 ISSN: 2171‐6374 MAO A FEMINIST? Gregory Freitag1 What is it that makes someone a feminist? Is it ones actions or ones intent that grants them the label of a progressive minded reformer? That is the question I pose to people whom dissect the life of Mao Zedong. Mao did remarkable things for women in the 20th century but is heavily scrutinized because his motives were in question. He promoted progressive legislation that enabled women to divorce, work outside the home and have autonomy over her body; however, Mao may not have ever had the political and social rights of women at heart when he made reforms. Mao found that it was politically beneficial to accommodate the needs of female citizens because women made up a massive group of supporters that had previously never been utilized. Appearing to cater to the needs of women allowed Mao to cultivate a cult like following of supporters to promote his own agendas. Along with men, these women were later used in movements like the Great Leap Forward and Cultural Revolution. Mao may have granted women the right to work, but they were usually given jobs doing hard labor in factories or on farms. Some people argue that the work promoted equality because the work enabled women to be self sufficient while others denounced the practice claiming that it destroyed femininity. Some critics claim that a true feminist has to have the betterment of women at the forefront of their ideals while others just want a small step toward progress regardless of one’s motives.

  • China's Forgotten Revolution
    China’s Forgotten Revolution: Radical Conservatism in Action, 1927-1949 Brian Kai Hin Tsui Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences COLUMBIA UNIVERSITY 2013 © 2012 Brian Kai Hin Tsui All rights reserved ABSTRACT China’s Forgotten Revolution: Radical Conservatism in Action, 1927-1949 Brian Kai Hin Tsui This dissertation examines Republican China’s state-led revolution under the Guomindang. Since the anti-Communist purge in 1927, the party-state had strived to re- energize mass activism and dissolve proletarian political subjectivity with a rightwing program that stressed interclass and national unity. Under Chiang Kai-shek’s leadership, the Guomindang put an end to the ideological ambiguity of Sun Yat-sen’s national revolution, broke ties the party forged with the Communist International in 1923, and launched an all-round assault on the fledging Chinese Communist Party. Refusing to challenge unequal power relationships domestically and abroad, Guomindang leaders promised to bring China and Asia back to their cultural essence and towards a superior ethical order. Despite its conservative socio-economic agenda, the party retained a radical organizational mode it derived from revolutionary socialism that prized Leninist vanguardism, reliance on mass involvement and cultural transformation. The Chinese nation-state under Guomindang rule experienced a conservative revolution and partook in a global fascist current that swept across Asia, Europe and Latin America during the second quarter of the twentieth century. The distinctiveness of China’s conservative revolution is demonstrated in this dissertation through a multilayered study of its ideological formulations, mass mobilization programs, and ability to garner support from outside the Guomindang domestically and abroad.

  • Leaving'lotus Feet'behind... Have Women's Lives Changed in China?
    COVER SHEET Henderson, Deborah (2007) Leaving 'lily feet' behind ... Have women's lives changed in China? ozhistorybytes (11) Accessed from http://eprints.qut.edu.au Copyright 2007 National Centre for History Education. Leaving ‘lily feet’ behind … Have women’s lives changed in China? Dr Deborah Henderson School of Cultural and Language Studies in Education Faculty of Education QUT Introduction In the world's oldest continuous civilization, women had no legislated rights at all until after the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) under Mao’s leadership was victorious in the civil war in 1949. Until this time, women lived lives of unquestioning subservience to men and had no access to formal education. Some female members of the rich nobility were educated at home, but this depended on the attitudes of their fathers or husbands. For most of the millions of Chinese women, life was restricted by traditional feudal codes and customs which reinforced their inferiority and obedience to men. Despite the hopes of many women and efforts to free them from traditional customs following the establishment of the People’s Republic of China, millions of Chinese women still struggle with poverty and hardship in the twenty-first century. Foot-binding One of the most obvious signs of such subservience was the practice of foot-binding. Women began to bind the feet of their daughters when aged between three and eight years. In order to prevent normal growth, the feet were bound with tight cloth wrappings which caused excruciating pain, especially in the early stages when the unfettered foot would still have been growing naturally.

Black, Edward Avery (M.A. History 2014) The Chaotic Epoch: Southwestern Chinese Warlords and Modernity, 1910-1938 Thesis Directed by Dr. Timothy Weston Abstract Although southwestern China was chaotic politically and economically in the warlord era (1910-1938), Sichuanese warlords became primary actors in many municipal modernization projects. This thesis argues that Sichuanese warlords’ engagement with new Republican values and modernity manifested itself in many modernization projects and promoted a new idea of the government’s role in society and in the creation of public spaces. By redefining warlordism outside of a national narrative, this thesis reframes Sichuanese warlords not as “stagnators” of national progress or simply a residual effect of the collapse of the Qing dynasty, but at times as creators, promoters, and sometimes advocates of modernity. Although many warlord municipal modernization projects were not successful in Sichuan, they display how new Republican values did not need nationalized administrative implementation or direct foreign influence, but rather these values grew organically out of new ideas of modernity, echoing similar changes in many parts of Chinese society.

  • History) Sem-V History of Modern China (1840-1960) Topic Communist Victory the Chinese Revolution 1949 • China Is a Nation with Ancient Culture and Heritage
    Dr. Krishan Gopal Tyagi BA (H) History) Sem-V History of Modern China (1840-1960) Topic Communist Victory The Chinese Revolution 1949 • China is a nation with ancient culture and heritage. Unlike many other nations, almost whole of China was under a single authority for many centuries. Several dynasties ruled China like Xia, Shang, Han, Tang etc. The last dynasty which ruled China was Qing Dynasty (also known as Manchu Dynasty). • Manchu Dynasty ruled China from the period 1644 to 1912. After that, there were intermittent times of dictatorship, a civil war between Kuomintang and the Communist Party, before Communist Party established the People Republic of China in 1949. • The Chinese Civil War was fought between forces loyal to the Kuomintang-led government of the Republic of China, and forces loyal to the Communist Party of China (CPC). The war began in August 1927, with Chiang Kai-Shek’s Northern Expedition, and essentially ended when major active battles ceased in 1950. The conflict eventually resulted in two de facto states, the Republic of China (ROC) in Taiwan and the People’s Republic of China (PRC) in mainland China, both claiming to be the legitimate government of China. • Chinese Communist Revolution (1921-1949) • The Chinese Communist Revolution or The 1949 Revolution was the culmination of the Chinese Communist Party’s drive to power since its founding in 1921 and the second part of Chinese Civil War (1946–1949). In the official media, this period is known as the War of Liberation. • Nationalist Collapse And The Establishment Of The People’s Republic Of China (1949) • The two-decade struggle for China between the Nationalists and the Communists reached its conclusion in 1949.
