The Chinese during the Exclusion Era The Chinese became victims of American racism after they arrived in Him Lai Mark California in large numbers during the mid nineteenth century. Even while their labor was exploited for developing the resources of the West, they were targets of discriminatory legislation, physical attacks, and mob violence. Assigned the role of scapegoats, they were blamed for society's multitude of social and economic ills. A populist anti-Chinese movement ultimately pressured the U.S. Congress to pass the first Chinese exclusion act in 1882. Racial discrimination, however, was not limited to incoming immi- grants.

Box 1346 Ann Arbor, Ml 48106- 1346 Abstract Japan-Republic of China relations under US hegemony: A genealogy of ‘returning virtue for malice’ Much of Chiang Kai-shek’s ‘returning virtue for malice’ (yide baoyuan ) postwar Japan policy remains to be examined. This thesis mainly shows how the discourse of ‘returning virtue for malice’ facilitated Japan’s diplomatic recognition of the Republic of China (ROC) on Taiwan during the Cold War era. More conceptually, this study re- conceptualizes foreign policy as discourse—that of moral reciprocity—as it sheds light on the question of recognition as well as the consensual aspect of hegemony. By adopting a genealogical approach, this discourse analysis thus traces the descent and emergence of the ‘returning virtue for malice’ trope while it examines its discursive effect on Tokyo’s recognition of Taipei under American hegemony. -

Journal of Chinese History 3 (2019), 137–158 doi:10.1017/jch.2017.43 . Jeremy E. Taylor FROM TRAITOR TO MARTYR: DRAWING LESSONS FROM THE DEATH AND BURIAL OF WANG JINGWEI, https://www.cambridge.org/core/terms 1944* Abstract Based on recently reopened files and publications in Nanjing, as well as published and newsreel accounts from the 1940s, this paper represents the first scholarly analysis of the rituals surrounding the death and burial of Wang Jingwei in Japanese-occupied China. Rather than locating this anal- ysis purely in the literature on the history of the Second Sino-Japanese War (1937–45), however, this paper asks what Wang Jingwei’s Re-organized National Government might tell us about per- sonality cults in the political culture of modern China. While Wang’s burial drew heavily on the precedent of Sun Yat-sen’s funerals of the 1920s, it also presaged later spectacles of public mourn- ing and posthumous commemoration, such as Chiang Kai-shek’s funeral in 1975 in Taipei. In focusing on this one specific event in the life of a “puppet government,” this paper hopes to reignite “ ” , subject to the Cambridge Core terms of use, available at scholarly interest in the study of dead leaders and their posthumous lives in modern Chinese history more generally.

From Cairo to the nationalistic geography of China: Street-naming in Taipei City immediately after WWII Abstract: This paper examines the outcome of two street-renamings in Taipei, the largest city of Taiwan, immediately after World War Two when the Chinese Nationalists, representing the victorious Allied forces, took over Taiwan from Japan. The Taiwan Administrative Office conducted the first street-renaming in June 1946 and the second street-renaming in January 1947. The first wave was characterized by the themes of local reminiscence and cityscape, anti-Japanese significance, and the ethos of Chinese nationalism. The second instance of renaming predominately features Chinese nationalistic ideas in that the streets were renamed after geographical names of China proper, we well as Tibet, East Turkestan (or Uyghurstan), Mongolia and Manchuria. This was a common practice in 1947, and one that persists in present times. The paper discusses the state ideologies behind the 46 PETER KANG aforementioned two types of street-naming by examining the ideas and the spatial layouts of the two naming practices. -
Wu Tiecheng in the 1911 Revolution in Jiujiang, China
KEMANUSIAAN Vol. 23, No. 1, (2016), 65–96 Guanxi, Networks and Eloquence: Wu Tiecheng in the 1911 Revolution in Jiujiang, China TAN CHEE SENG Department of Chinese Studies, Faculty of Arts and Social Sciences, National University of Singapore, The Shaw Foundation Building, Block AS7, Level 3, 5 Arts Link, Singapore 117570 [email protected] Abstract. This paper aims to examine how Wu Tiecheng (1888–1953), one of the Kuomintang (KMT) and Republican China senior statesmen, had established and developed his three crucial assets: guanxi ( 关系 relationships or connections), networks and eloquence since his formative years (1888–1910) until the 1911 Revolution in Jiujiang, China. His uniqueness as a revolutionary who was equipped with those three elements nurtured during the formative years of his youth was subsequently reflected during the revolution. Concurrently, this will explore prior and during the revolution, what types of guanxi and networks he had tried to establish, subsequently develop and even utilise. Furthermore, this paper also attempts to look into how those guanxi, networks and even eloquence had assisted Wu in his endeavours to become one of the leading revolutionaries in this revolution. In probing into the above mentioned aspects, it would trace the activities he had involved and roles played. Three essential elements apart from moulding and influencing Wu, had become part of his social capital which benefitted him and continuously to be utilised in the coming years. Those had given impetus to his rise within the KMT and Republican political circles, and also made him a distinct figure among peers.

1 a Survey of the Studies on the Revolution of 1911 in China And
A Survey of the Studies on the Revolution of 1911 in China and Abroad Wei Chuxiong* Department of History, the University of Macao The year of 2011 marks the one hundredth anniversary of the Revolution of 1911 (also known as the Xinhai Revolution, the 1911 Revolution, the Chinese Revolution, and the Chinese Democratic Revolution of 1911, etc.). During the past hundred years, especially in the last 50 years, historians in both China and foreign countries have carried out countless, profound and extensive researches on that historical event, the most significant one in the history of modern China. On the Xinhai Revolution, there is truelly a tremendous amount of papers and monographs, which come one after another to the reader’s attention. Their contents, though all inclusive, are rich in variety. Disputes and contentions over the interpretations of the event arise one after another too, reflecting people’s increasing understanding of the event. In fact, the process of human understanding of history itself is a kind of history, and a best reward for history as well. Therefore, on the occasion of the centennial anniversary of the Chinese Democratic Revolution, let us look back and see what changes and developments have taken place over the past one hundred years in the academic studies on the Xinhai Revolution carried out by the scholars, with the aim of making it into an optimal strategy for commemorating and learning about the Revolution. With this purpose in mind, this paper plans to conduct a simple survey over the developments and changes in the studies on the Revolution of 1911 carried out in the past years by the scholars both in China and abroad, so as to help the readers get a basic understanding of the developments and achievements of the study on the Revolution, although due to limited space and author’s ability, it is very likely that the author’s view is partial and that this study is far from complete. -

Degree awarded September 2020 ii © 2020 Thomas Evan Fischer iii THESIS ABSTRACT Thomas Evan Fischer Master of Arts Asian Studies Program September 2020 Title: Sun Yat-sens: Contested Images of a Political Icon This thesis explores the afterlives of the Chinese revolutionary icon Sun Yat- sen and their relevant contexts, arguing that these contexts have given rise to different images of the same figure. It serves as a gallery in which these different images are put into conversation with one another, revealing new insights into each. Key to the discussion, Sun is first introduced in a short biography. Then, the thesis moves to his different afterlives: Sun and the fight for his posthumous approval in the Republic of China before 1949; Sun and his usage in Chinese Communist political rhetoric from 1956 through 2016; Sun and his changing image in the ROC-Taiwan, a change that reflects the contentious political environment of an increasingly bentu Taiwan; Sun and two of his images among the overseas Chinese of Hawaii and Penang. -

The Guomindang Cosmography of Street Names
if.iAPPENDIX C The Guomindang Cosmography of Street Names IT IS EVIDENT from the naming patterns still visible that deeply significant arrangements of space are not limited to choreographic movements before temples. Every Taiwan town carries a message of Guomindang ideology in its street names: (a) identifying Chiang Kai-shek, Zhongzheng, with his prede cessor Sun Yat-sen, Zhongshan (in Taipei, however, Chiang was represented by Jieshou Road near Jieshou Hall, the re named Japanese government center, Jie being part of his personal name, and shou meaning "longevity"); (b) identifying Chiang's ideas and the Nanking government with Sun Yat sen's Three Principles of the People (sanminzhuyi); (c) identify ing Guomindang authority in Taiwan with the moral purposes . of Nanking government (1928-37) and earlier revolutionary events and organizations; (d) identifying Guomindang author ity with specific Confucian values and universalistic standards of peace and impartiality; (e) recalling Chineseness with such names as Zhonghua Road and the names of mainland cities; and (f) carefully limiting Taiwanese symbolism. Neutral names and local names are interspersed but never for important streets. Very few leaders are so memorialized. Lin Sen Street could refer to Lin Sen (1868-1943), the dignified and powerless chief of state in the Nanjing regime, or to his Appendix C 319 eponymous county of birth in Fujian. Keqiang Road in Shilin may be named for Huang Xing, the early Guornindang leader. In Taipei, as is so often the case, the Three Principles of the People are used to name parallel streets in the same order as Sun used, with Nationalism first: Minzu, Minquan, and Min sheng. -
