    On the Periphery of a Great “Empire”: Secondary Formation of States and Their Material Basis in the Shandong Peninsula during the Late Bronze Age, ca. 1000-500 B.C.E Minna Wu Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences COLUMIBIA UNIVERSITY 2013 @2013 Minna Wu All rights reserved ABSTRACT On the Periphery of a Great “Empire”: Secondary Formation of States and Their Material Basis in the Shandong Peninsula during the Late Bronze-Age, ca. 1000-500 B.C.E. Minna Wu The Shandong region has been of considerable interest to the study of ancient China due to its location in the eastern periphery of the central culture. For the Western Zhou state, Shandong was the “Far East” and it was a vast region of diverse landscape and complex cultural traditions during the Late Bronze-Age (1000-500 BCE). In this research, the developmental trajectories of three different types of secondary states are examined. The first type is the regional states established by the Zhou court; the second type is the indigenous Non-Zhou states with Dong Yi origins; the third type is the states that may have been formerly Shang polities and accepted Zhou rule after the Zhou conquest of Shang. On the one hand, this dissertation examines the dynamic social and cultural process in the eastern periphery in relation to the expansion and colonization of the Western Zhou state; on the other hand, it emphasizes the agency of the periphery during the formation of secondary states by examining how the polities in the periphery responded to the advances of the Western Zhou state and how local traditions impacted the composition of the local material assemblage which lay the foundation for the future prosperity of the regional culture.

Front cover: Left: Allene Talmey, “People and Ideas: May Ling Soong Chiang,” Vogue 101(8), (April 15, 1943), 34.

Evans papers (HSE), scrapbook. 2 Introduction: It is the last day of March 1943 and the sun is beaming into the window of your humble apartment on Macy Street in Los Angeles’ “Old Chinatown”.1 The day had arrived, Madame Chiang Kai-shek’s debut in Southern California. You hurry outside and push your way through a sea of black haired-people, finding an opening just in time to catch a glimpse of China’s First Lady. There she was! In a sleek black cheongsam, with her hair pulled back in a bun, she smiled graciously as her limousine slid through the adoring crowd, en route to City Hall. The split second in which you saw her was enough because for the first time in your life you were proud to be Chinese in America.2 As the wife of the Generalissimo Chiang Kai-shek, from February-April 1943, Madame Chiang, also known by her maiden name, Soong Mayling, embarked on a carefully- crafted and well-publicized tour to rally American material and moral support for China’s war effort against the Japanese.

  • Second Early Career Seminar East and Southeast Asian Archaeology and Early History Program Friday
    The Henry Luce Foundation American Council of Learned Societies Second Early Career Seminar East and Southeast Asian Archaeology and Early History Tarrytown, New York June 11-13, 2010 Welcome to the seminar! We look forward to the discussion of ongoing research by recent recipients of Luce/ACLS awards. The design of sessions is intended to encourage critical but collegial exchange, with ample time for all participants to ask questions, make comments, and share research experiences. Presenters at panel sessions are asked to identify a basic question that arose during research and, in that light, to evaluate difficulties encountered and progress made in carrying out the project. They should feel free to ask for advice on problems that have not yet been resolved. Panel format: Short presentations by panelists (ten minutes each) followed by remarks from the commentator and general discussion. Because topics cover a wide range of subfields, methodologies, historical periods, and geographic areas, comparative discussion is not only possible, but necessary. Success in the seminar as a whole, as well as in individual presentations, will come from the degree to which ideas, approaches, and problem-solving in one area provide useful inspiration to others. Program All sessions will be held in the Riverview Room Friday Arrivals at the conference center 12:00 – 4:00 Introductions: Helena Kolenda – The place of the archaeology initiative 4:30 – 6:30 in the Luce Foundation’s wider interests in East and Southeast Asia Steven Wheatley – A word about ACLS

  • Shifting US Racial Perceptions of the Japanese and Chinese Peoples
    Asia Pacific Perspectives ∙ Spring/Summer 2015 Paternalism and Peril: Shifting U.S. Racial Perceptions of the Japanese and Chinese Peoples from World War II to the Early Cold War Brandon P. Seto, Loyola Marymount University Abstract: Long before the carnage of the Pacific Theater in the Second World War commenced, U.S. government officials, scholars, shapers of public opinion, and the general public questioned the nature of Asian peoples. At the war’s outset, when faced with a visceral enemy and a prominent ally amongst the countries of Asia, officials and opinion-makers alike set out to educate the citizens of the United States about their Asian friends and foes. Many eminent historians such as John Dower, Yukiko Koshiro, and Christopher Thorne have chronicled the racial perceptions of the peoples of the United States and Japan towards one another during World War II and in the early stages of the Cold War, while other scholars have examined the U.S. racial perceptions of the Chinese in these same periods. Members of both scholarly groups acknowledge the transference of various stigmas and associations from Japan to China in the postwar period. As an analysis that looks at prevalent American racial attitudes toward the Japanese and Chinese peoples in both World War II and the Early Cold War, this article will help readers to understand better the nature of this transference. It will provide an introductory assessment of the varying U.S. orientalist and racial perceptions of the Chinese and Japanese peoples from World War II to the early postwar period. Key Words: race, foreign policy, World War II, Cold War, China, Japan Introduction and Background http://www.usfca.edu/center-asia-pacific/perspectives/ Working from the assumption that racial attitudes and perceptions are fluid social constructs, this article examines the shifting American definitions of the Japanese and Chinese in terms of either paternalism or fears of the Yellow Peril.

  • THE CHINA LOBBY”: INFLUENCES on U.S.-CHINA FOREIGN POLICY in the POST WAR PERIOD, 1949-1954 by Jeff Blackwell
    “THE CHINA LOBBY”: INFLUENCES ON U.S.-CHINA FOREIGN POLICY IN THE POST WAR PERIOD, 1949-1954 By Jeff Blackwell Generally defined, the “China Lobby” was a broad network of people, both foreign and domestic, whose interests coalesced around the goal of overthrowing of communism in China. It consisted of well-financed Nationalist Chinese officials in collaboration with right-wing U.S. po­ litical elites who worked toward the common goal of supporting Chiang Kai-shek’s recovery of mainland China from Mao Zedong and the Communist forces.1 Aided by the anticommunist environment of the 1950s, the Lobby’s loose affiliation of influential individuals— including associates in the private sector, media, and politics—exerted considerable pressure on U.S. foreign policy decisions concerning China. It is important to note that the term “lobby” in the United States usually describes a private group that attempts to influence policy. 1 Ross H. Koen, The China Lobby in American Politics (New York: Harper & Row, 1974), ix-x. Koen’s book was actually withdrawn from publication—i.e., suppressed by efforts of the China Lobby—after printing in 1960 to remain legally unpublished until 1974. 43 THE FORUM Though similar, the China Lobby encompassed a more broadly based consensus of individuals that cooperated in the promotion of anticom­ munism and a pro-Chiang U.S. policy. Indeed, the Lobby operated in an unconventional manner and existed without any particular leader or organization at its center. Yet, it effectively exerted significant pressures on the U.S. government without going through regular channels of diplomacy.

    PART I. HISTORY, DIPLOMACY, DEMOCRACY AND DEVELOPMENT – 11 Part I. History, Diplomacy, Democracy and Development THE MARSHALL PLAN: LESSONS LEARNED FOR THE 21ST CENTURY CHAPTER 1. THE MARSHALL PLAN: HISTORY AND LEGACY – 13 Chapter 1. The Marshall Plan: History and Legacy by Gerard Bossuat The Marshall Plan, officially called European Recovery Program (ERP), was in place from April 1948 to September 1951. Most contemporary actors considered that it played an essential role in the economic successes of postwar Western Europe. The various European programs of modernization greatly benefited from the ERP, since it financed imports essential to reconstruction and modernization. It produced counterparts in European currencies, the allocation of which needs to be clarified, and generated a debate on their use. Moreover, the Marshall Plan was at the origin of the Organisation for European Economic Co-operation (OEEC), created to encourage European unity. The Marshall Plan was a political tool in the hands of the American administration in the context of the Cold War and the defense of the West. What was the role of the Marshall Plan in the development of a consumer society? Was the Marshall Plan Americanizing European societies? The ERP thus also held a socio-cultural dimension. Finally, over the last 60 years the Marshall Plan has become a myth. Whenever our countries are hit by a crisis, the media or politicians ask for a “new Marshall Plan”. The Marshall Plan was, and remains, appreciated, but it also raised criticisms in Europe. So we have to separate what belongs to history and what belongs to the collective memory or to the myth.

Commencement is a time-honored tradition that recognizes the outstanding work and achievements of students and faculty. It is an exciting time for us, and we know this is a special occasion for all of you. Our students are the heart and soul of Ole Miss, and we take pride and inspiration in their accomplishments and growth. Today’s ceremony celebrates years of study, hard work and careful preparation, and we’re grateful that you have come to show your support, love and belief in these graduates. The members of the Class of 2021 accomplished so much during their time as Ole Miss students — they pursued their passions, maximized their potential and pushed their boundaries through outstanding learning opportunities and life-changing experiences. In addition, they endured the disruption caused by the pandemic, which has taught us all important life lessons about resilience and the need to be adaptable. Now, we can’t wait to see how they’ll build and grow personal legacies of achievement, service and leadership.
