  • Memorial Park for Women Laborers”: Gender, Religion, and the Politics of Memory in Taiwan’S Urban Renewal
    Journal of Archaeology and Anthropology‧75:37-70‧2011 From the “Twenty-five Ladies’ Tomb” to a “Memorial Park for Women Laborers”: Gender, Religion, and the Politics of Memory in Taiwan’s Urban Renewal Anru Lee∗ and Wen-hui Anna Tang** ABSTRACT This essay looks at the recent renovation of the Twenty-five Ladies’ Tomb, and examines the politics of the feminist movements and the politics of memory as they are expressed through different meanings of female ghosts, in southern Taiwan. People who were involved in the renovation process included the families of the deceased “twenty-five maidens,” the Kaohsiung city government, and feminist groups in Kaohsiung and elsewhere in Taiwan – most notably the Kaohsiung Association for the Promotion of Women’s Rights – all of whom had different considerations and therefore diverse expectations regarding the future and purpose of the tomb. In Specters of Marx (2006), Derrida uses the idea of “specters” and “haunting” as consequences of historical injustice and tragedy metaphorically but powerfully. These two elements come together in our essay as well. However, the “ghosts” in our accounts are more literally ghosts with whom some (if not all) of our ethnographic subjects interact. They appear, express their sorrow, and demonstrate their grievances. The reestablishment of peace and order essential to residents of both the living world and the afterlife thus hinges upon mutual understanding and close collaboration between them. Yet, as meanings are constantly contested, so is the nature of the deceased’s requests. The different interpretations that the (living) socio-political forces give to the deceased’s needs open up new terrains of contestation for the memory of the past and the rights and obligations at the present.

It was an impressive year, with 308 cities reporting on their climate change data (six times more than the number that was reported in the survey’s first year of 2011), making this the largest and most comprehensive survey of cities and climate change published to date by CDP. City governments from Helsinki to Canberra to La Paz participated, including over 90% of the membership of the C40 – a group of the world’s largest cities dedicated to climate change leadership. Approximately half of reporting cities measure city-wide emissions. Together, these cities account for 1.67 billion tonnes CO2e, putting them on par with Japan and UK emissions combined. 60% of all reporting cities now have completed a climate change risk assessment. And cities reported over 3,000 individual actions designed to reduce emissions and adapt to a changing climate. CDP, C40 and AECOM salute the hard work and dedication of the world’s city governments in measuring and reporting these important pieces of data. With this report, we provide city governments the information and insights that we hope will assist their work in tackling climate change.

  • Analysis of the Spatiotemporal Transformation of Fort San Domingo in Tamsui, Taiwan, from the Perspective of Cultural Imagination
    This paper is part of the Proceedings of the 3rd International Conference on Defence Sites: Heritage and Future (DSHF 2016) www.witconferences.com Analysis of the spatiotemporal transformation of Fort San Domingo in Tamsui, Taiwan, from the perspective of cultural imagination C.-Y. Chang Ministry of the Interior, Architecture and Building Institute, Taiwan, ROC Abstract The timeline of transformation of Fort San Domingo shows that between the 1630s and 1860s it was used as a military defense; from the 1860s–1970s as a foreign consulate and then from the 1980s–2010s as a historical site. We can see different and contradictory explanations of the cultural imagination of remembrance, exoticism and the symbolism of anti-imperialism from the historical context of this military building. Keywords: spatiotemporal transformation, Fort San Domingo, Tamsui, cultural imagination. 1 Introduction Fort San Domingo is rather young compared to forts built in Europe, yet it has a different historical meaning for this island located in Eastern Asia. Fort San Domingo (聖多明哥城) was one of the earliest Grade I heritage sites first appointed under the Cultural Heritage Preservation Act in 1982. It is the most well preserved fortress that can be dated back to the golden age of expeditions made by the Dutch East India Company during the colonial era. Moreover, Fort San Domingo is also the first heritage that has been transformed into a modern museum. Named the Tamsui Historical Museum of New Taipei City, the fort and its surrounding historical buildings were listed as a Potential World Heritage Site in Taiwan by the Ministry of Cultural Heritage.

The structured methodology was designed to give us a snapshot now, and then the opportunity to repeat the process to see what has changed and what further steps we may need to take in light of new trends identified by our clients and key opinion leaders in our industry. It has also provided us with a roadmap for broader industry collaboration on issues and challenges that are bigger than ICCA which will need all the industry organizations to solve together. The “push” to make that happen must come from all of us invested in our industry to demand our leaders in all the organizations work together to keep our industry vital and relevant to the appropriate governmental decision makers.

Collaboration between architects and engineers satisfied demands of esthetics, real estate economics, construction, occupant comfort in mild-to-moderate winds, and structural safety in typhoons and earthquakes. Its architectural design, eight eight-story modules standing atop a tapering base, evokes indigenous jointed bamboo and tiered pagodas. Building shape refinements from wind tunnel studies dramatically reduced accelerations and overturning forces from vortex shedding. The structural framing system of braced core and multiple outriggers accommodates numerous building setbacks.
