Han emperorship was a mode of Chinese authoritarianism different from the extremism of the Qin, and Liu Bang’s shadow can be recognized in many later monarchs, from Zhu Yuanzhang to Mao Zedong.1 The founding of the Han was achieved by a large group of people, addressed at the time -who sup ”,۝פ and in subsequent history as “Meritorious Officials ported Liu Bang in the civil war and enthroned him as the emperor. This group was, in essence, responsible for founding the Han dynasty and instituting its particular model of emperorship. To understand the formation of the Han dynasty, and more importantly, of the political culture that breeded authoritarianism, we need to understand the na- ture of this political group and its members’ divergent interests in pro- moting emperorship. Rather than focusing on the position of the group in the institu- tions of the empire, I study the participants’ own understandings and interpretations of the process of creating an emperor. My focus is not so much on the facts of events, as much as on how events were under- stood and interpreted by the participants and subsequent writers of the time. In other words, I want to bring to the analytical foreground the multitude of thoughts and words that motivated the actions and con- structed the events involved in creating an emperor, since it is through both words and deeds that we can allocate responsibility among those who created monarchy.2 To do so, I investigate three specific ques- This article was completed with the support of a research grant from the University of Hong Kong.

  • Evidence for a Late Onset of Agriculture in the Lower Yangtze Region and Challenges for an Archaeobotany of Rice
    Forthcoming In: A. Sanchez-Mazas, R. Blench, M. Ross, M. Lin & I. Pejros (ed.) Human migrations in continental East Asia and Taiwan: genetic, linguistic and archaeological evidence. London: Taylor & Francis Likely publication date 2007. Evidence for a late onset of agriculture in the Lower Yangtze region and challenges for an archaeobotany of rice Dorian Q Fuller1, Ling Qin2, Emma Harvey1 1. Institute of Archaeology. University College London 2. School of Archaeology and Museology, Peking University, Beijing Introduction The origins of agriculture represents a particularly important transition in human prehistory. By producing food through cultivating plants, and to a lesser degree by herding animals, it became possible to store surpluses which could support larger settled populations (sedentism and increased population density), and specialist occupations (non-food producers). With agriculture was created the potential for much greater rates of population increase. The demographic differentiation between the idealized early farmer and hunter- gatherer has been a fundamental assumption for many powerful models of prehistoric population change, genetic change, and language spread (e.g. Bellwood 2005). Within this context, rice agriculture is usually assumed to be an essential factor underlying the Holocene migrations that are supposed to have created cultural geography of much of China as well as Southeast Asia (e.g. Bellwood 2005; Higham 2003). The hard evidence for the timing, geography, and evolutionary processes involved in the establishment of rice agriculture is, however, rather limited and ambiguous. Such evidence will be crucial to any story of agricultural origins and dispersal in East Asia. This paper considers an alternative hypothesis, the late domestication of rice, which sees much of the evidence for early rice as reflecting foraging and a long period of incipient cultivation of still wild plants.

  • Local Politics in the Chinese Cultural Revolution: Nanjing Under Military Control
    The Journal of Asian Studies Vol. 70, No. 2 (May) 2011: 425–447. © The Association for Asian Studies, Inc., 2011 doi:10.1017/S0021911811000039 Local Politics in the Chinese Cultural Revolution: Nanjing Under Military Control DONG GUOQIANG AND ANDREW G. WALDER China’s protracted regional conflicts of 1967 and 1968 have long been under- stood as struggles between conservative and radical forces whose opposed inter- ests were so deeply rooted in existing patterns of power and privilege that they defied the imposition of military control. This study of Nanjing, a key provincial capital that experienced prolonged factional conflict, yields a new explanation: the conflicts were prolonged precisely because they could not be characterized as pitting “conservatives” against “radicals”, making it difficult for central offi- cials, local military forces, or Mao Zedong to decide how to resolve them. Fur- thermore, Beijing officials, regional military forces, and local civilian cadres were themselves divided against one another, exacerbating and prolonging local conflicts. In competing for approval from central authorities, local factions adopted opportunistic and rapidly shifting political stances designed to portray their opponents as reactionary conservatives—charges that had no basis in fact. HE CHINESE CULTURAL REVOLUTION —in particular the initial two years of Tmass political conflict that devastated China’s civilian government—was a traumatic and pivotal event in modern Chinese history. It was intensively chronicled and analyzed outside China in its immediate aftermath, and for much of the subsequent decade by social scientists eager to conceptualize and interpret the conflict in structural terms. Academic interest in these events quickly waned outside China in the post-Mao era, almost forgotten, as the coun- try’s remarkable change of course attracted the bulk of scholarly attention.

  • A Comparative Study of Xiang Yu and Hannibal's Strategic Thinking with That of Shaka the Zulu of South Africa
    African Nebula, Issue 4, September 2011 A Comparative Study of Xiang Yu and Hannibal's Strategic Thinking with that of Shaka the Zulu of South Africa Zhe Zhang and Omon Osiki Nanjing Normal University, Nanjing China Abstract The name of Ji Xiang Yu occupies an important place in the history of strategic thinking in Chinese history. His rise into limelight was occasioned by the opportunity provided by the decline in the political fortunes of the Late Qin Dynasty. Like Xiang Yu, Hannibal Baca, the famous North African military strategist was brought up to accept strict and hard military discipline. He was excellent in military and diplomatic activities and helped to build a formidable force that could hold its own in the then Mediterranean World. Several centuries after the exploits of these two great strategists, Africa south of the Sahara produced a military strategist of world acclaim. Shaka the Zulu was as shrewd and militarily strategic as both Xiang Yu and Hannibal to merit a place in the annals of the “fathers of strategic thinking”. This work analyzes the historical forces that shaped the strategic thinking of these historical figures and discusses their tremendous contributions to the development of military science and history. Keywords: Xiang Yu, Hannibal, Shaka, Strategic Thinking Introduction About the 3rd century BC, both the East (Asia) and West (Europe) were active on the stage of numerous wars that produced two outstanding heroes who changed the direction of warfare and strategic studies. The Chinese people are familiar with the king of Western Chu, Xiang Yu (BC 232 BC - 202 BC) who contributed to the military and political development of the area.

  • The Ambivalence of Creation
    The Ambivalence of Creation Debates Concerning Innovation and Artifice in Early China Michael Puett STANFORD UNIVERSITY PRESS • STANFORD, CALIFORNIA 200I CHAPTER 5 The Tragedy of Creation: Sima Qian' s Reconstruction of the Rise of Empire in Early China Sima Qian was a court historian during the reign of Wudi and an active partici­ pant in the debates of the time.1 His work, the Shiji, was intended to be a history of the entirety of China's past, beginning with Huangdi and ending with his own emperor. The text is particularly fascinating in regard to the issues that have been discussed in this study, for the historian is directly concerned with the problems of how empire came to be created and to what extent this new creation could still be seen as linked to the past. Moreover, his reconstruction of the rise of empire involved an implicit commentary on many of the issues concerning creation that had been debated for the previous few centuries. Sima Qian's Project In the "postface" to his work, Sima Qian stakes out some of his claims as a historian. At one point, he narrates a dialogue between himself and "High Min­ ister Hu Sui" concerning the nature of the Shiji and its relationship to the classics: High Minister Hu Sui asked: "Why is it that, in ancient times, Con­ fucius created [zuo J the Spring and Autumn Annals?"
