Cultural Governance in Contemporary China: Popular Culture, Digital Technology, and the State
! ! ! ! CULTURAL GOVERNANCE IN CONTEMPORARY CHINA: POPULAR CULTURE, DIGITAL TECHNOLOGY, AND THE STATE BY LUZHOU LI DISSERTATION Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Communications and Media in the Graduate College of the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, 2015 Urbana, Illinois Doctoral Committee: Professor Emeritus John Nerone, Chair Assistant Professor Amanda Ciafone Professor Emeritus Dan Schiller Professor Kent Ono, University of Utah ii ABSTRACT This dissertation is a study of the historical formation and transformation of the Chinese online audiovisual industry under forces of strategic political calculations, expanding market relations, and growing social participation, and the cultural ramifications of this process, especially the kind of transformations digital technologies have wrought on the state-TV-station-centered mode of cultural production/distribution and regulatory apparatuses. Through this case, the project aims to theorize the changing mode of cultural governance of post-socialist regimes in the context of digital capitalism. Using mixed methods of documentary research, interviews with industry practitioners, participant observations of trade fairs/festivals, and critical discourse analyses of popular cultural texts, the study finds that the traditional broadcasting and the online video sectors are structured along two different political economic mechanisms. While the former is dominated by domestic capital and heavily regulated by state agencies, the latter is supported by transnational capital and less regulated. Digital technologies coupled with transnational capital thus generate new cultural flows, processes, and practices, which produces a heterogeneous and contested cultural sphere in the digital environment that substantially differs from the one created by traditional television. -
Militar Portuguesa Durante a ‘Revolução Cultural’ Chinesa Em Macau, Em Junho De 1967
A PROSTRAÇÃO DA GUARNIÇÃO MILITAR PORTUGUESA DURANTE A ‘REVOLUÇÃO CULTURAL’ CHINESA EM MACAU, EM JUNHO DE 1967 Mestre Moisés Silva Fernandes ESTUDOS SOBRE A CHINA VII • Moisés Silva Fernandes é investigador associado do Instituto de Ciências Sociais da Universidade de Lisboa. Os seus interesses abrangem Macau nas relações luso-chinesas, Timor nas relações luso-australo-indonésias e a política externa portuguesa contemporânea. As suas mais recentes publicações incluem o livro Sinopse de Macau nas relações luso-chinesas, 1945-1995, Lisboa, Fundação Oriente, 2000, e vários trabalhos editados em revistas e actas académicas. 2 ESTUDOS SOBRE A CHINA VII Resumo A ocorrência da “revolução cultural” chinesa em Macau, entre Novembro de 1966 e Agosto de 1968, demonstrou plenamente que a China Continental não pretendia alterar o status quo do território. Apesar de Mao Zedong e o seu séquito terem instigado o derrube violento das estruturas do partido e do Estado e de proeminentes dirigentes chineses, como Liu Shaoqi, Deng Xiaoping e Tao Zhu, a nível interno, e de terem fomentado a revolução mundial, a nível externo, evitaram, porém, que os Guardas Vermelhos rebeldes invadissem o território. Esta atitude por parte do regime maoísta legitimou simultaneamente a administração portuguesa e a elite comercial chinesa de Macau. Neste trabalho pretendemos analisar os incidentes do dia 16 de Junho de 1967, o envolvimento do major Abrantes e a intervenção da China no sentido de minimizar o incidente. Palavras-chave Relações luso-chinesas; “revolução cultural” chinesa em Macau; administração portuguesa de Macau; elite comercial chinesa de Macau; guarnição militar portuguesa; interesses; confl uência de interesses; pragmatismo; interdependência; manutenção do status quo. -
