Its establishment was a manifestation of scholarly achievements by Chinese political scientists around the globe. 宗旨 Mission 華人論壇的宗旨有以下三項: 第一, 促進和加強全球各地華人社會和學術領域裏對於政治科學和中國研究的發展。 第二, 運用政治科學的知識來推動對各個華人地區的政治、經濟、社會、以及中國對外關 係的研究。 第三, 建立和加強全球性的華人政治學專業人士之間的網絡聯係和學術交流。 -To strengthen the field of political science and China studies within the Chinese communities of the Chinese Mainland, Taiwan, Hong Kong and those in the US, Japan, and other regions. -To utilize the knowledge of political science and apply it to the reality of greater China and China’s relations with the external world. -To establish and strengthen professional networks throughout the world. 歷史 History 華人論壇的首屆大會于1999年在華盛頓地區的馬裏蘭大學召開。40多位華人學者出席了會 議。其中大部分人是從事政治學研究與教學的專家學者。 自1999年以來,華人論壇組織了幾十次學術活動,包括大型國際會議和小型圓桌會議等 等。參加的學者有的來自中國大陸,臺灣,香港,澳門,也有的來自日本,韓國,新加坡, 澳大利亞,英國和美國。 The inaugural conference was held in September, 1999, in the Washington, DC area at the University of Maryland campus. More than forty Chinese scholars, primarily political scientists, attended this conference. From 1999 to the present, the Global Forum has sponsored several dozen academic activities includ- ing conferences, workshops, and other programs. Participants have come from the Chinese Mainland, Taiwan, Hong Kong, Macau, Japan, South Korea, Singapore, Australia, the United Kingdom, and the United States. 2 全球華人政治學家論壇 Global Forum of Chinese Political Scientists 組織結構 Organization 華人論壇的活動和聯絡分別在全球和地區兩個層次上協調進行 全球範圍協調員: 趙全勝 (美國美利堅大學) 朱雲漢 (臺灣中央研究院/蔣經囯基金會) 地區協調員 : 中國大陸: 賈慶囯 (北京大學) 倪世雄 ( 復旦大學 ) 何高潮 (中山大學) 臺灣: 朱雲漢 (臺灣中央研究院/蔣經囯基金會) 鄧中堅(政治大學) 香港: 胡偉星(香港大學) 澳門: 郝雨凡(澳門大學) 美國: 趙全勝 (美利堅大學) 朱志群 (巴克內爾大學)-- 全美政治學年會等 華世平 (路易威爾大學)-- 公共關係 日本: 杜進 (拓殖大學) 東南亞: 鄭永年 (新加坡國立大學) 歐洲: 臧小偉 (英國謝菲爾德大學) 論壇成員還經常承擔一些功能性職責和專門項目,包括籌款,組織研討會,出版會議論 文集等。 The activities and communications of the Global Forum have been coordinated at both global and regional levels. -Global Coordinators: Zhao Quansheng (American University) Chu Yunhan (Academia Sinica/Chiang Ching-kuo Foundation) -Regional Coordinators: Mainland China Jia Qingguo (Peking University) Ni Shixiong (Fudan University) He Gaochao (Zhongshan University) Taiwan Chu Yunhan (Academia Sinica/Chiang Ching-kuo Foundation) Teng Chung-Chian (National Chengchi University) Hong Kong Hu Weixing (University of Hong Kong) Macau Hao Yufan (University of Macau) 3 全球華人政治學家論壇 Global Forum of Chinese Political Scientists United States Zhao Quansheng (American University) Zhu Zhiqun (Bucknell University) -- APSA Conferences Hua Shiping (University of Louisville) -- Public Relations Japan Du Jin (Takushoku University) Southeast Asia Zheng Yongnian (National University of Singapore) Europe Zang Xiaowei (University of Sheffield, UK) Affiliated members also carry out functional duties and specific projects such as fundraising, organizing panels, and publishing volumes of conference papers, etc. 政策研究與咨詢 Policy Research and Consulting 除了一般的學術研究,華人論壇還積極開展就相關關鍵政策的研究與咨詢。每年組織海 外學者團訪問北京等地與相關政府機構,例如外交部、國務院台辦、國務院僑辦等,進 行深入的政策討論與對話。同時,還和重要智囊機構或大學,例如中國改革開放論壇、 社會科學院、北京大學、清華大學、復旦大學等,展開學術交流,並就相關政策問題進 行研討。 論壇本身還組織了由海外華人學者組成的相關政策研究的小組。以下是這方面的兩個 例子: -中國外交政策研究與咨詢小組。協調員:趙全勝(美國美利堅大學) -日本外交政策研究小組。協調員:趙全勝(美國美利堅大學),劉傑(日本早稻田大 學),劉江永(中國清華大學)。 In addition to regular academic research, the global forum has also conducted extensive research around crucial policy issues and played consulting functions.

Box 15182, CHEVY CHASE, MD 20825 International edition, June 1998 Published 6 times a year ISSN number: 1027-3999 81 No to the three noes Let the world say yes to Taiwan As Mr. Clintons visit to Beijing is getting closer, the U.S. press and Congress have focused attention on the new scandals in which Mr. Clinton finds himself embroiled, such as donations originating in the Chinese Army, export waivers for Loral satellites to China in exchange for campaign donations, and the leakage of sensitive space technology to the Chinese military. There is one issue which is receiving less attention, but which Taiwanese and Taiwanese-Americans consider vital: the safety and security of our homeland Taiwan, and its future as a free and independent nation. We are therefore deeply concerned by Mr. Clintons apparent acquiescence in the so-called three noes. We wish to state clearly that any reiteration oral or written or even any acknowledgement of the three noes by the Clinton Administration amounts to a betrayal of Taiwan and its future as a free, democratic and independent nation. It would embolden China to move even more aggressively in isolating Taiwan, and would limit Taiwans options in future negotiations. It should be crystal clear to Mr. Clinton that the three noes are a violation of the Senator Torricelli with a message for the White House Taiwan Communiqué -2- June 1998 basic principles of democracy and self-determination, for which the U.S.

  • Is China Corporatist?
    IS CHINA CORPORATIST? by JUDITH M. NORTON (Under the direction of Howard J. Wiarda) Abstract The purpose of this dissertation is to investigate the character of the Chinese political system writ large. Generally speaking, previous scholarly work on the Chinese political system consists of divergent conclusions; but perhaps what is more important is the debate about the form of the system not only remains inconclusive but also has faded into the background. In its place, studies consisting of narrow topics focusing on China have emerged, and they generally have no lessons learned for the larger picture. This trend is puzzling because China is gaining in prominence in the international system, but concomitantly less and less scholarly work is being conducted on the Chinese political system broadly construed. Since domestic systems drive a country’s behavior in the international system, this study aims to address this gap by examining the broad research question of: what factors explain the form of the contemporary Chinese political system? This study, however, unlike previous studies that perhaps undervalue sociopolitical cultural variables, specifically examines Chinese culture and history to investigate the character of the system. The study advances the theory that the Chinese elite used historical corporatism to facilitate China’s transition from the imperial era to the contemporary era – meaning they meshed traditional elements with modern features – and as a result of taking this approach the modern system contains many features from the imperial system. Moreover the leadership continues to leverage forms of corporatism to achieve an eastern holistic order, or perhaps more aptly put, a system more reflective more of Chinese history and culture as opposed to copying another system.

  • How Censorship in China Allows Government Criticism but Silences Collective Expression GARY KING Harvard University JENNIFER PAN Harvard University MARGARET E
    American Political Science Review Page 1 of 18 May 2013 doi:10.1017/S0003055413000014 How Censorship in China Allows Government Criticism but Silences Collective Expression GARY KING Harvard University JENNIFER PAN Harvard University MARGARET E. ROBERTS Harvard University e offer the first large scale, multiple source analysis of the outcome of what may be the most extensive effort to selectively censor human expression ever implemented. To do this, we have W devised a system to locate, download, and analyze the content of millions of social media posts originating from nearly 1,400 different social media services all over China before the Chinese government is able to find, evaluate, and censor (i.e., remove from the Internet) the subset they deem objectionable. Using modern computer-assisted text analytic methods that we adapt to and validate in the Chinese language, we compare the substantive content of posts censored to those not censored over time in each of 85 topic areas. Contrary to previous understandings, posts with negative, even vitriolic, criticism of the state, its leaders, and its policies are not more likely to be censored. Instead, we show that the censorship program is aimed at curtailing collective action by silencing comments that represent, reinforce, or spur social mobilization, regardless of content. Censorship is oriented toward attempting to forestall collective activities that are occurring now or may occur in the future—and, as such, seem to clearly expose government intent.

  • Censorship and Freedom on China's Internet Susan Perry American
    Censorship and freedom on China’s Internet Susan Perry Claudia Roda American University of Paris American University of Paris International Politics Computer Science Paris, France Paris, France [email protected] [email protected] ABSTRACT We propose that the Internet is an arena for the renegotiation of human rights values in Chinese society, and that the social consequences of such renegotiation are changing the power relations between citizens and state. We address this hypothesis by exploring three factors: the choice of technology systems and censorship methods, the contested nature of information on the Internet, and the merger of on and offline worlds for young Internet users in China. We base our work on the existing literature and the research we have conducted with several focus groups of Chinese netizens. In an effort to move the debate on the divide between democratic and authoritarian forms of governance forward, we suggest that the creation of an online human rights culture, when combined with the cross- over between virtual and physical worlds and high due process expectations for most users, leads to an increasingly proactive relationship between citizens and State that challenges political categorization.

The vast majority of what people do on the Internet - from choosing a shade of lipstick to consulting the stock market - is ignored by censors and unfettered by government regulation [Xiao 2011].
