  • "The Case for Colonialism": a Colloquium
    "The Case for Colonialism": A Colloquium On Monday, 7 May 2018 the McDonald Centre hosted a colloquium to discuss Bruce GiIley's provocative article, "The Case for Colonialism". A Professor of Political Science at Portland State University, Gilley is a specialist in the comparative politics of China and Asia and a theorist of political legitimacy. In September 2017, Third World Quarterly published his article, which argues that colonial rule was sometimes legitimate, that post-colonial states would do better to nurture certain aspects of their colonial legacy than discard them, and that certain kinds of 'neo-colonial' consensual partnership between former colonies and Western countries can and could be beneficial. Predictably, "The Case for Colonialism", created a furore. The purposes of the McDonald Centre's colloquium were threefold: to examine Gilley's reading of the colonial past; to test his proposals for a 'neo-colonial' future; and to reflect upon the controversy. In addition to Bruce Gilley himself, thirty historians, economists, ethicists, experts in international relations, and former civil servants attended. They included: Ali Ansari: Professor of Modern History with reference to the Middle East, and founding director of the Institute for Iranian Studies, St Andrew’s University; author of The Politics of Nationalism in Modern Iran (2012). Nigel Biggar: Regius Professor of Moral and Pastoral Theology, and Director of the McDonald Centre, University of Oxford, where he leads the ‘Ethics and Empire’ project; author of Between Kin and Cosmopolis: An Ethic of the Nation (2014) and “Rhodes, Race, and the Abuse of History” (2016). Jeremy Black, MBE: Professor of History at the University of Exeter; author of Crisis of Empire (2010) and Geographies of an Imperial Power: The British World, 1688–1815 (2017).

  • Should We Try to Predict Transitions to Democracy?: Lessons for China
    Should We Try to Predict Transitions to Democracy?: Lessons for China by Bruce Gilley INTRODUCTION It has been 20 years since the Harvard political scientist Samuel Huntington predicted that “the limits of democratic development in the world may well have been reached.”1 That forecast, substantiated by a survey of the evidence as it existed in Asia, Eastern Europe, Latin America, and the Middle East, was famously wrong. In particular, Huntington’s prediction that the possibility of democratic change in Eastern Europe was “virtually nil” was disproved within a few years. Between 1984, when he wrote, and 2003, Freedom House reckons that the proportion of the world’s states that are electoral democracies rose from 41 to 61 percent, while the proportion of the world’s population living under “free” or “partly free” conditions rose from 56 to 65 percent.2 In terms both of polities and of people, democracy’s limits had clearly not been reached. So, was Huntington’s exercise in prediction a waste of time? Not at all. Huntington performed a signal service to the scholarly and policy-making community despite being largely wrong (except perhaps with respect to the Middle East). He highlighted an important issue concerning the global political future and discussed the factors that remain central to the study of democratization. A retrospective look at the literature on regime change prior to the Third Wave of democratization3 suggests that it was the failure to think seriously about macro-level political change in authoritarian states, not the failure to predict accurately, that was the main shortcoming of research in the 1970s.

  • When Deliberative Democracy Travels to China: an Example of Cultural Exceptionalism
    When Deliberative Democracy Travels to China: An Example of Cultural Exceptionalism Li-chia Lo ORCID ID: 0000-0001-5731-7971 March, 2018 School of Social and Political Science Submitted in fulfilment of the requirements of the degree of PhD – Arts University of Melbourne 0 Abstract Global interdependence has stimulated the necessity of establishing the conversation between the Western traditions and non-Western traditions. Political concepts developed in one society, for example in the West, may have different implications in another society, such as in non-Western contexts. The meaning of political theory is constantly transformed and show different interpretations from the trajectory that we used to know. One example will be the use of deliberative democracy which is a concept developed from the West. On the one hand, the development of deliberative democracy in China is deeply connected with the contexts of its culture, institution, socio-political traditions, and its local experiment. On the other hand, the adoption of deliberative democracy in China shows signs and conditions of democratization brought by incremental changes due to the cultivation of the deliberative capacity. The duality between the local contexts and the universal trend of democratization constitutes the basic theme of deliberative democracy in China. With the inspiration from Edward Said’s Traveling Theory and Giorgio Agamben’s concepts of exception and example, this dissertation will discuss why and how the development of deliberative democracy in China is heading toward cultural exceptionalism rather than embracing the universalism prescribed in the normative goal of deliberative democracy. 1 DECLARATION OF ORIGINALITY This thesis does not contain material which has been accepted for any other degree in any university.

  • The Case for Colonialism: a Lecture
    THE CASE FOR COLONIALISM: A LECTURE Given by Dr. Bruce Gilley at the Center for the Study of Western Civilization, Texas Tech University, November 27, 2018 Introduction I would like to thank Dr. Balch for his kind invitation to speak today. I also want to applaud the students of Texas Tech University for their upholding – despite the efforts of 23 faculty members here and a truly bizarre statement by your President issued a few hours before this talk asserting that “there is no case for colonialism” – of the primary principles of a university, namely vigorous debate and the search for truthful knowledge, key qualities that lie at the heart of Western civilization. This is the first time I have given a public talk on this topic, more than a year since a global lynch mob tried to stop me from publishing my peer-reviewed article “The Case for Colonialism”. The University of Oxford, whose chancellor was the last colonial governor of Hong Kong, had to keep my talk there in May secret because he could not trust his own faculty to behave like adults. So, the open-minded students of Texas Tech here tonight should be proud. Empirical Research In September 2017, my peer-reviewed article “The Case for Colonialism” was published in an advance online version of the Third World Quarterly. The purpose of the article was to outline what I and many colleagues in the harder social sciences believe is the clear evidence for the benefits and legitimacy of the second phase of European imperialism, which ran from roughly the mid-1800s to the mid-1900s.
