  • Using the Past to Serve the Present’: Comparative Perspectives on Chinese and Western Theories of the Origins of the State*
    ‘Using the Past to Serve the Present’: Comparative Perspectives on Chinese and * Western Theories of the Origins of the State Yuri Pines and Gideon Shelach One of the interesting peculiarities of the formative age of Chinese intellectual tradition, the Zhanguo period (戰國, ‘Warring States,’ 453–221 BCE), is its thinkers’ preoccupation with the origin of the state. Several recent studies by Chinese and Western scholars have analyzed Zhanguo theories of the formation of political and social institutions, either in the context of the evolution of contemporaneous political and philosophical discourse or as part of ancient Chinese mythology.1 Our discussion proposes a different perspective. By comparing Zhanguo theories of the origin of the state with parallel views developed in Europe and North America in the age of Enlightenment and beyond, we hope to disclose common factors that influenced theoretical thinking in both cases, and thereby to contribute to a general discussion about the evolution of human political thought. We believe that an analysis of ancient Chinese discourse may offer insights into the ways in which the social and political agendas of thinkers shape their theoretical approaches – in ancient China no less than elsewhere. Critics may argue that juxtaposing thinkers from such different cultural and chronological backgrounds is like comparing apples and oranges. Yet this is what cross-cultural comparison always does: It * We are grateful to Prof. Vera Schwarcz and Israel Sorek for their comments on earlier versions of this article, and to Dr Neve Gordon for his useful suggestions. 1 See, e.g., Liu Zehua 劉澤華, Zhongguo chuantong zhengzhi siwei 中國傳統政治思維, Liaoning 1991, pp.

  • A City with Many Faces: Urban Development in Pre-Modern China (C
    A city with many faces: urban development in pre-modern China (c. 3000 BC - AD 900) WANG TAO Introduction Urbanism is an important phenomenon in human history. Comparative studies have, however, shown that each city possesses its own characteristics within a particular historical context. The fundamental elements that determine the construction and functions of a city, such as the economic, political, military and religious factors, play different roles in different cases. In other words, each city may potentially be unique. Modern scholars have now realised that the most appropriate way to approach a city is to approach it in its own cultural tradition. To understand the cultures of different cities and the idea of urbanism and its manifestations in various contexts, we must consider the experiences and feelings of the people who lived in these cities rather than just the half-buried city walls and broken roof tiles. In this chapter I will examine different models and the crucial stages of urbanisation in pre-modern China, mainly from an archaeological perspective, but also in conjunction with some contemporary historical sources. The aim is to reveal a general pattern, if there is one, and the key elements that underlay the development of Chinese cities from 3000 BC to AD 900. The ideal city and some basic terms: cheng/yi, du, guo, she, jiao, li/fang, shi A good way to detect what people think of their cities is to find out what they call them. The most common word in the Chinese language for city is cheng, meaning a walled settlement.

ABSTRACT We study the impact of anticorruption efforts on firm performance, exploiting an unanticipated corruption crackdown in China’s Heilongjiang province in 2004. We compare firms in the affected regions with those in other inland regions before and after the crackdown. Our main finding is an overall negative impact of the crackdown on firm productivity and entry rates. Further, these negative impacts are mainly experienced by private and foreign firms, while state-owned firms are mostly unaffected. We also present evidence concerning two potential explanations for our findings.
