Zhaoqian Liu As a Typical Hunan Person
8 Meet the Professor Page 1 of 8 Stubbornness, perseverance, and tolerance to hardship and trouble: Zhaoqian Liu as a typical Hunan person Received: 25 March 2020. Accepted: 13 April 2021. doi: 10.21037/prpm-2021-2 View this article at: http://dx.doi.org/10.21037/prpm-2021-2 Introduction This is not my first trip to Changsha, the capital city of Hunan Province. But I’m still very excited when the dishes and drinks of the city come to mind—the rivers seen from the airplane and the signboards at the highway toll station have all reminded me of crayfish. For people in many provinces, rice is staple food with pepper as a side dish; for people in Hunan, however, the opposite is the case. “When you walk ten steps on a street, you can find a noodles store; when you walk 50 steps ahead, you can find a milk tea house; when you walk 100 steps ahead, you can find a restaurant serving crayfish.” The spirit of modern entertainment has become even more popular Figure 1 Front gate of Yuelu Academy. here.

September-October 2015 Dear Faithful East Gates Partner, We're Now
September-October 2015 Dear faithful East Gates partner, We’re now entering the autumn season. Biblically, it’s the time of the Fall harvest. Spiritually and physically, what we’ve sowed in the Spring should now be ripe and ready for gathering, so our family, community and others in need may enjoy the fruits of our bounty. We see this clearly expressed in the way God named Israel a beautiful olive tree and the nations, as grafted, wild branches (Rom.11:16). We share with the Chinese how the key attributes of the olive tree are fruitfulness, faithfulness and steadfastness. It stays green throughout the year The LORD called your name, “A green olive tree, beautiful in fruit and form...” (Jeremiah 11:16) and is primarily pollinated by the wind, not bees. Even when chopped down or burned, new shoots grow forth from its roots. Olive trees can live in any type of temperature or terrain. That’s why its abun- dant fruit blessed the ancient world year around with oil for light, nutrition, healing and anointing. God designed us to bear fruit for the same purpose -- to be a light in the midst of darkness, nourishment for the spiritually hungry, the oil of gladness for those who lack hope and an eternal blessing to all around. spring planting fall gathering the harvest East Gates working with pastors in the planting and gathering of God’s harvest in China so they may proclaim like King David, “But as for me, I am like a green olive tree in the house of God; I trust in the lovingkindness of God forever and ever.” Psalm 52:8 Names and places not mentioned, to protect the believers, given increased tension in certain areas. -

Case Study of Changsha, China
Planning for Improving High-Tech New Towns’ Attraction to Talents - Case Study of Changsha, China A Thesis Presented to the Faculty of Architecture and Planning COLUMBIA UNIVERSITY In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Master of Science in Urban Planning by Lingran Meng [lm3193] May, 2018 Lingran Meng lm3193 ACKNOWLEDGEMENT I would like to take this opportunity to express my greatest appreciation towards my thesis advisor, Prof. Kian Tajbakhsh, and my thesis reader, Prof. Katherine Dunham, for their generous guidance and inspiration during my research and thesis jury, providing me with precious advice. This dissertation would not have been completed without their assistance. I would also like to dedicate my gratefulness to my friends and my family for their endless support and encouragement. Their support is important for me to have courage and motivation to finish my thesis. 2 Lingran Meng lm3193 ABSTRACT In 2015, “The Belt and Road Initiative” proposed by the Chinese government contended the target of booming up cities in central and western China and relieving the overpopulation of coastal areas. In this plan, Changsha, a city in the middle part of China is going to play an important role for innovation and high-tech development. Talents are necessary for this step of development. This empirical study used the city of Changsha for case study and identified that apart from the traditional factors like Hukou, job opportunities and salary, talents’ willingness to live and work in Changsha can also be seriously affected by their satisfaction of cultural and recreational activities. Therefore, when crafting policies and plans for the development of second-tier cities in China, local governments and planners could discover and make good use of its own specialties for talent attraction. -

The University of Texas at Austin, 2015 Supervisor: Huaiyin Li This work is a modern history of Changsha, the capital city of Hunan province, from the late nineteenth to mid twentieth centuries. The story begins by discussing a battle that occurred in the city during the Taiping Rebellion (1850-1864), a civil war that erupted in China during the mid nineteenth century. The events of this battle, but especially its memorialization in local temples in the years following the rebellion, established a local identity of resistance to Christianity and western imperialism. By the 1890’s this culture of resistance contributed to a series of riots that erupted in south China, related to the distribution of anti-Christian tracts and placards from publishing houses in Changsha. During these years a local gentry named Ye Dehui (1864-1927) emerged as a prominent businessman, grain merchant, and community leader. -

Dissertation Advisor: Mark C. Elliott Eric Tanner Schluessel The Muslim Emperor of China: Everyday Politics in Colonial Xinjiang, 1877-1933 Abstract This dissertation concerns the ways in which a Chinese civilizing project intervened powerfully in cultural and social change in the Muslim-majority region of Xinjiang from the 1870s through the 1930s. I demonstrate that the efforts of officials following an ideology of domination and transformation rooted in the Chinese Classics changed the ways that people associated with each other and defined themselves and how Muslims understood their place in history and in global space. -
Warlord Era” in Early Republican Chinese History
Mutiny in Hunan: Writing and Rewriting the “Warlord Era” in Early Republican Chinese History By Jonathan Tang A dissertation submitted in partial satisfaction of the Requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in History in the Graduate Division of the University of California, Berkeley Committee in Charge: Professor Wen-hsin Yeh, Chair Professor Peter Zinoman Professor You-tien Hsing Summer 2019 Mutiny in Hunan: Writing and Rewriting the “Warlord Era” in Early Republican Chinese History Copyright 2019 By Jonathan Tang Abstract Mutiny in Hunan: Writing and Rewriting the “Warlord Era” in Early Republican Chinese History By Jonathan Tang Doctor of Philosophy in History University of California, Berkeley Professor Wen-hsin Yeh, Chair This dissertation examines a 1920 mutiny in Pingjiang County, Hunan Province, as a way of challenging the dominant narrative of the early republican period of Chinese history, often called the “Warlord Era.” The mutiny precipitated a change of power from Tan Yankai, a classically trained elite of the pre-imperial era, to Zhao Hengti, who had undergone military training in Japan. Conventional histories interpret this transition as Zhao having betrayed his erstwhile superior Tan, epitomizing the rise of warlordism and the disintegration of traditional civilian administration; this dissertation challenges these claims by showing that Tan and Zhao were not enemies in 1920, and that no such betrayal occurred. These same histories also claim that local governance during this period was fundamentally broken, necessitating the revolutionary party-state of the KMT and CCP to centralize power and restore order. Though this was undeniably a period of political turmoil, with endemic low-level armed conflict, this dissertation juxtaposes unpublished material with two of the more influential histories of the era to show how this narrative has been exaggerated to serve political aims. -
