    ATROCITIES IN CHINA: LIST OF VICTIMS IN THE PERSECUTION OF FALUN GONG IN CHINA Jointly Compiled By World Organization to Investigate the Persecution of Falun Gong PO Box 365506 Hyde Park, MA 02136 Contact: John Jaw - President Tel: 781-710-4515 Fax: 781-862-0833 Web Site: http://www.upholdjustice.org Email: [email protected] Fa Wang Hui Hui – Database system dedicated to collecting information on the persecution of Falun Gong Web Site: http://www.fawanghuihui.org Email: [email protected] April 2004 Preface We have compiled this list of victims who were persecuted for their belief to appeal to the people of the world. We particularly appeal to the international communities and request investigation of this systematic, ongoing, egregious violation of human rights committed by the Government of the People’s Republic of China against Falun Gong. Falun Gong, also called Falun Dafa, is a traditional Chinese spiritual practice that includes exercise and meditation. Its principles are based on the values of truthfulness, compassion, and tolerance. The practice began in China in 1992 and quickly spread throughout China and then beyond. By the end of 1998, by the Chinese government's own estimate, there were 70 - 100 million people in China who had taken up the practice, outnumbering Communist Party member. Despite the fact that it was good for the people and for the stability of the country, former President JIANG Zemin launched in July 1999 an unprecedented persecution of Faun Gong out of fears of losing control. Today the persecution of Falun Gong still continues in China. As of the end of March 2004, 918 Falun Gong practitioners have been confirmed to die from persecution.

  • The Bishan Project: Cultural Production and Place Reconstruction in Rural China
    The Bishan Project: Cultural Production and Place Reconstruction in Rural China by Adele Morgan Kurek A thesis submitted in conformity with the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts Collaborative Masters of Arts Program in Asia-Pacific Studies Graduate Department of East Asian Studies University of Toronto © Copyright by Adele Morgan Kurek 2015 The Bishan Project: Cultural Production and Place Reconstruction in Rural China Adele Morgan Kurek Master of Arts Collaborative Masters of Arts Program in Asia-Pacific Studies Graduate Department of East Asian Studies University of Toronto 2015 ABSTRACT In 2011, curators and cultural workers Ou Ning and Zuo Jing founded the Bishan Project, an effort to address rural-urban inequality in contemporary China through artistic and cultural production, based in Bishan Village of Yi County, Anhui Province. This study will examine how the Bishan Project endeavors to reconstruct rural places in response the decline of rural communities generated by China’s marketization and integration with the global economy. Focusing on the material, re-presentational, and symbolic activities that contribute to place construction in Bishan and Yi County, I will reveal how the project attempts to make the rural visible while reconstructing Bishan to symbolize a utopian alternative to the social and spatial realities of China’s countryside. ii ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS I would first like to thank my supervisor Meng Yue for her encouragement and for her thoughtful feedback on my writing. I would also like to thank Professor Hy Van Luong for his valuable advice on conducting fieldwork. In addition, I would like to extend my gratitude to Mai Corlin of Aarhus University for sharing the electronic copies of Ou Ning’s notebook with me, and also for the many insightful conversations we shared during our stay in Bishan.

  • The Literary Field of Twentieth-Century China Chinese Worlds
    The Literary Field of Twentieth-Century China Chinese Worlds Chinese Worlds publishes high-quality scholarship, research monographs, and source collections on Chinese history and society from 1900 into the next century. "Worlds" signals the ethnic, cultural, and political multiformity and regional diversity of China, the cycles of unity and division through which China's modern history has passed, and recent research trends toward regional studies and local issues. It also signals that Chineseness is not contained within territorial borders - overseas Chinese communities in all countries and regions are also "Chinese worlds". The editors see them as part of a political, economic, social, and cultural continuum that spans the Chinese mainland, Taiwan, Hong Kong, Macau, South-East Asia, and the world. The focus of Chinese Worlds is on modern politics and society and history. It includes both history in its broader sweep and specialist monographs on Chinese politics, anthropology, political economy, sociology, education, and the social-science aspects of culture and religions.

  • (Chinese) Calligraphy
    Calligraphy TO THE TEACHER OBJECTIVES OF THIS UNIT: To introduce students to the Chinese writing system and its emergence as an art form. To provide background on various script types and styles and the aesthetic criteria used to evaluate calligraphic works. To give students enough material to discuss traditional Chinese notions about the close relationship between style and individual personality. TEACHING STRATEGIES: This unit asks student to look very closely at writing they do not understand, and some students may find it difficult to see all of the distinctions drawn. Discussing some of the examples in class could help students learn to see the distinctions between different scripts and styles. Besides looking at calligraphy in aesthetic terms, it can usefully be linked to other aspects of elite culture, including the practice of other art forms (e.g., poetry, painting, and music), education and literacy, and Daoist and Confucian attitudes towards the individual and the cultivation of the educated person. Links to social and political uses of art can be explored through a discussion of why both scholar-officials and emperors formed collections of calligraphy. The shorter section on calligraphy in modern China may be of particular interest in a class with students interested most of all in contemporary China. Other teachers could omit it. WHEN TO TEACH: Although writing was used from Shang times on (and this unit includes some examples of Shang and Han writing), it was not treated as an art form until after the fall of the Han. This unit draws primarily on Six Dynasties and Tang examples.

  • Social Change and Rediscovering Rural Reconstruction in China
    Week 9 Required Reading: Ou Ning, “Social Change and Rediscovering Rural Reconstruction in China”, New Worlds From Below: Grassroots Networking and Informal Life Politics in Twenty-First Century East Asia, edited by Tessa Morris-Suzuki, will be published by The Australian National University Press, Canberra, 2017. Chapter 2 Social Change and Rediscovering Rural Reconstruction in China Ou Ning The Origins of the Rural Reconstruction Movement Rural reconstruction, one of the most important insurmountable problems in China’s relentless pursuit of modernity, has had its ups and downs over the last 100 years. It again has emerged as a lens through which to examine the role of different political and intellectual forces in China's process of social reform. This chapter explores this historical legacy and the recent re-emergence of rural reconstruction as a source of inspiration for Chinese social change.1 Chinese elites began exploring the concept of rural reform in the late Qing dynasty, when Mi Jiansan and his Japan-educated son Mi Digang, members of a distinguished local family in the village of Zhaicheng in Ding county of Hebei province, experimented with the idea of ‘village government’ (cunzhi 村治) in 1902, through literacy campaigns, civic education and local self- government. County magistrate Sun Faxu developed their idea further as he took the post of gov- ernor in neighboring Shanxi province, and it was later also embraced by the warlord Yan Xishan, who effectively controlled Shanxi in the Republican era and turned the province into a model of rural reconstruction. The ‘Village Government Group’ (cunzhipai 村治派) was established as a school of thought in 1924, when some north China landed gentry, including Wang Hongyi, Mi Digang, Mi Jieping, Peng Yuting, Liang Zhonghua, Yi Zhongcai and Wang Yike, launched the Zhonghua Daily (Zhonghua ribao 中华日报) and the Village Government Monthly (cunzhiyu- ekan 村治月刊).

Recruitment, organization and control of sufficient amounts of labour have been essential to keep the Asian economies and societies going. This series aims at looking into these dynamics in depth, acknowledging the wide-ranging variety of social trajectories including labour values and cultural connotations, ecological constraints and different degrees of market orientations. The series aims to be a meeting place between experts from a variety of disciplines; from linguistics to history and social sciences. The core ambition of the series is to explain different types of labour (share cropping, wage labour, slavery, casual or precarious labour) within a wider cultural, economic and ecological context. Topics such as guilds, circulation of labour, gender stratifications, religious and ethnic identities or modes of labour control are all relevant to this approach. Other topics may be balancing these more structural considerations by departing from the workers’ perspectives and their actions: ranging from collective action and daily resistance to life cycles and their relationship to labour. Geographically the series will cover the space from East
