    China As an Issue: Artistic and Intellectual Practices Since the Second Half of the 20Th Century, Volume 1 — Edited by Carol Yinghua Lu and Paolo Caffoni

    China as an Issue: Artistic and Intellectual Practices Since the Second Half of the 20th Century, Volume 1 — Edited by Carol Yinghua Lu and Paolo Caffoni 1 China as an Issue is an ongoing lecture series orga- nized by the Beijing Inside-Out Art Museum since 2018. Chinese scholars are invited to discuss topics related to China or the world, as well as foreign schol- ars to speak about China or international questions in- volving the subject of China. Through rigorous scruti- nization of a specific issue we try to avoid making generalizations as well as the parochial tendency to reject extraterritorial or foreign theories in the study of domestic issues. The attempt made here is not only to see the world from a local Chinese perspective, but also to observe China from a global perspective. By calling into question the underlying typology of the inside and the outside we consider China as an issue requiring discussion, rather than already having an es- tablished premise. By inviting fellow thinkers from a wide range of disciplines to discuss these topics we were able to negotiate and push the parameters of art and stimulate a discourse that intersects the arts with other discursive fields. The idea to publish the first volume of China as An Issue was initiated before the rampage of the coron- avirus pandemic. When the virus was prefixed with “China,” we also had doubts about such self-titling of ours. However, after some struggles and considera- tion, we have increasingly found the importance of 2 discussing specific viewpoints and of clarifying and discerning the specific historical, social, cultural and political situations the narrator is in and how this helps us avoid discussions that lack direction or substance.

    Chapter 2 How Foreign Affairs were Handled During Sui and Tang The basic structure of the bureaucracy by which China was gov ­ erned in imperial times took shape during Qin and Han. Its institutions and their functioning during that period have, been well described by Wang Yu-ch ’uan and Hans Bielenstein. Between Han and Tang these institu­ tions had imdergone much evolution and elaboration. The more ample data from the Tang period have also been thoroughly analyzed and discussed by such scholars as Des Rotours, Sun Guodong, and Xie Yuanlu. 2 After a brief discussion of the general decision-making process of the Tang government and the checks and balances built into the process for ensuring accuracy and effectiveness, this chapter focuses on the way in which Tang dealt with official business involving relations with foreign countries. Who were the individuals and groups principally involved in making policy on such matters? What bureaucratic apparatus on the cen­ tral level was responsible for handling foreign affairs? How was informa­ tion on foreign countries collected and utilized in coming to decisions? How did this information provide basic materials for the compilation of accoimts of foreign countries in the national history? Answers to these questions show that China had developed a sophisticated set of principles and institutions for dealing with foreign coimtries, assuring frontier secu­ rity and securing the rule of the Son of Heaven. The Decision-Making Process There was no special office in traditional China for foreign policy decision-making. Foreign affairs were largely concerned with frontier se­ curity, and frontier policies were part of the general decision-making proc ­ ess.

  • Appendix: the Re-Establishment of Sociology Discipline in China

    Appendix: the Re-Establishment of Sociology Discipline in China

    Appendix: The Re-establishment of Sociology Discipline in China He Zhaofa As is well known, radical changes are taking place in academic acti­ vities in China. Our government pays a great deal of attention not only to the development of studies of technology and the natural sciences, but it also puts much stress on the social sciences. In the past five years many departments of the social sciences have been rebuilt. To take my university of Zhongshan as an example, we have re-established the following departments: law; anthropology; sociology; administration and management; and library sciences. We are also preparing to establish a department of political science in 1985. Sociology as an independent academic discipline had been sus­ pended for about thirty years before it was re-habilitated in 1979. Since then we have reconstructed the discipline through two channels. (1) THE CHINESE ACADEMY OF SOCIAL SCIENCES Under these auspices were founded the National Association of Socio­ logy in China and the Institute of Sociology (in Beijing). Both are led by Dr Fei Xiaotong, the well-known scholar in the fields of sociology and anthropology. The Association and the Institute conducted two short-term summer classes for researchers and teachers of sociology in 1980 and 1981. These courses which were in the nature of short-term training classes covered basic concepts, basic methods of social research, technological development and social change, community analysis, applied sociology and so on. Courses of this kind are not intended for university students, rather they are directed towards cadres and staff in order to help train them to apply sociology for the promotion of China's four modernisations.
