  • Modern Hong Kong
    Modern Hong Kong Oxford Research Encyclopedia of Asian History Modern Hong Kong Steve Tsang Subject: China, Hong Kong, Macao, and/or Taiwan Online Publication Date: Feb 2017 DOI: 10.1093/acrefore/9780190277727.013.280 Abstract and Keywords Hong Kong entered its modern era when it became a British overseas territory in 1841. In its early years as a Crown Colony, it suffered from corruption and racial segregation but grew rapidly as a free port that supported trade with China. It took about two decades before Hong Kong established a genuinely independent judiciary and introduced the Cadet Scheme to select and train senior officials, which dramatically improved the quality of governance. Until the Pacific War (1941–1945), the colonial government focused its attention and resources on the small expatriate community and largely left the overwhelming majority of the population, the Chinese community, to manage themselves, through voluntary organizations such as the Tung Wah Group of Hospitals. The 1940s was a watershed decade in Hong Kong’s history. The fall of Hong Kong and other European colonies to the Japanese at the start of the Pacific War shattered the myth of the superiority of white men and the invincibility of the British Empire. When the war ended the British realized that they could not restore the status quo ante. They thus put an end to racial segregation, removed the glass ceiling that prevented a Chinese person from becoming a Cadet or Administrative Officer or rising to become the Senior Member of the Legislative or the Executive Council, and looked into the possibility of introducing municipal self-government.

  • Sömürgecilik Tarihi

METİN ÜNVER İSTANBUL ÜNİVERSİTESİ AÇIK VE UZAKTAN EĞİTİM FAKÜLTESİ İSTANBUL ÜNİVERSİTESİ AÇIK VE UZAKTAN EĞİTİM FAKÜLTESİ TARİH LİSANS PROGRAMI SÖMÜRGECİLİK TARİHİ Dr. Öğr. Üyesi Metin Ünver Yazar Notu Elinizdeki bu eser, İstanbul Üniversitesi Açık ve Uzaktan Eğitim Fakültesi’nde okutulmak için hazırlanmış bir ders notu niteliğindedir. ÖN SÖZ Sömürgecilik, geçmişi aslında antik çağlara uzanan bir tarihi vakıadır. Bu ise konuyu gerçekten bir dersin sınırları içinde ele alınması zor bir hale sokmaktadır. Dolayısıyla elinizdeki ders materyalinin konusu modern sömürgecilikle sınırlıdır. Şüphesiz modern sömürgecilik coğrafî keşiflerin bir ürünüdür. 19. yüzyılda neo-colonialism kalıbına girse de birçok geçmiş özellikleri devam etmiştir. Bununla birlikte I. Dünya savaşı sömürgecilik mücadelesinin patlama noktasıdır. Bu dersin sınırları şimdilik I. Dünya Savaşı’nın başladığı 1914 yılına kadar getirildi. Bundan sonraki süreç ve sömürgeciliğin girdiği yol farklı değerlendirmelerin konusu olabileceğinden daha çok sömürgeciliğin ne olduğu, nasıl geliştiği ve yöntemleri üzerinde durularak konunun daha iyi anlaşılmasına gayret olundu. Bütün bu altyapı elbette I. Dünya Savaşı ve sonrasındaki sürecin anlaşılmasında büyük fayda sağlayacak ve kişinin kendi bilgisini ilerlete bileceği bir alt yapı sunacaktır. Ele alınan dönemin bir başka sıkıntısı coğrafî olarak oldukça geniş bir sahanın mevzubahis olmasıydı. Bu nedenle bazı tasarruflara gidilerek, sömürgecilik uygulamalarının izlerini bugün dahi yaşayan bölgeler ve ülkelere daha fazla yer ayrıldı. Bu yapılırken tarihin pragmatik, bugün için fayda getirecek bilgi sunma yönü göz önünde bulunduruldu. Son olarak elbette elinizdeki bu ders materyali sömürgecilik tarihini geçmişten bugüne getirip, ortaya koyma iddiasında değildir. Yapılmaya çalışılan olayların gelişimi açısından oynadığı rol, genel gidişata ve sonucu etkileri bakıından önemli görülen konuların bir bütünlük içerisinde sunulmasıdır.

The Guidelines are also published in German and French. Funded by © German Museums Association, Berlin, February 2021 ISBN 978-3-9819866-6-2 3 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY These Guidelines are a practical aid for all German museums on the care of col- lections from colonial contexts. They additionally provide an information base for international professional colleagues, political decision makers, as well as represen- tatives of post-colonial initiatives and diaspora communities. The Guidelines do not represent a position paper or legally binding instructions, however. The Guidelines enhance sensitivity Those in positions of responsibility at the museum should be aware that most of the items in their collections were not created or produced as a ‘museum exhibit’. They are a testimony of different cultures, with their own significances anchored in their communities of origin. In colonial contexts, the acquisition or creation of collection items can be associated with the use of force and/or pronounced dependency relationships. In addition, collection items which can be assigned to colonial contexts can reflect discriminato- ry representations and colonial or racist ideologies.

  • State and Smuggling in Modern China: the Case of Guangzhouwan/Zhanjiang
    State and Smuggling in Modern China: The Case of Guangzhouwan/Zhanjiang Steven Pieragastini, Boston College Abstract The Leizhou Peninsula in western Guangdong (concurrent with the present-day municipality of Zhanjiang) has at several points in history been an important site of exchange, both licit and illicit in the eyes of central authorities. The French gained control of the area from the weakened Qing government in 1898–1899 and established their “leased territory” of Guangzhouwan. Administered as part of French Indochina, Guangzhouwan became a fiefdom of smugglers, pimps, and pirates, never developing into the rival to Hong Kong that the French hoped it would become. After a brief Japanese occupation, the French returned the leased territory to the government of Chiang Kai-shek (Jiang Jieshi) after World War II, but their colonial presence left a legacy of trafficking, violence, and anti-imperialism that emboldened Communist guerrillas in the area. Once the Communists came into power in 1949, they subjected Zhanjiang and other liminal spaces along the Chinese coast to vigorous anti-smuggling and anti-drug campaigns. But a return to smuggling in the Reform Era (1978–present) suggests that the successful repression of smuggling in the Mao era may have been a temporary exception to the historical rule in this region. Keywords: French imperialism, French Indochina, opium, smuggling, China, People’s Republic, Guangzhouwan, Zhanjiang, Reform Era, anti-corruption Introduction The prefecture-level municipality of Zhanjiang 湛江市 (figure 1), encompassing the Leizhou Peninsula 雷州半島 in the western part of China’s Guangdong Province, is a product of post– World War II administrative reforms put in place by the Nationalist government and carried over in the People’s Republic after 1949.

  • Development of Industrial Estates, Ports, and Metropolitan and Alternative Roads in the Greater Hanoi Area
    CHAPTER 6 Development of Industrial Estates, Ports, and Metropolitan and Alternative Roads in the Greater Hanoi Area Nguyen Binh Giang This chapter should be cited as: NGUYEN Binh Giang , 2011. “Development of Industrial Estates, Ports and Metropolitan and Alternative Roads in the Greater Hanoi Area.” In Intra- and Inter-City Connectivity in the Mekong Region, edited by Masami Ishida, BRC Research Report No.6, Bangkok Research Center, IDE-JETRO, Bangkok, Thailand. CHAPTER 6 DEVELOPMENT OF INDUSTRIAL ESTATES, PORTS, AND METROPOLITAN AND ALTERNATIVE ROADS IN THE GREATER HANOI AREA Nguyen Binh Giang INTRODUCTION While Hanoi has a long history as the capital city of Vietnam, its urbanization has been considerably rapid during the past 20 years. This includes the modernization of inner districts, urbanization of peripheral areas and establishment of new urban districts. The urbanization process has been fed by two major factors: high economic growth (both industry and trade-service sectors) and mass immigration. Today, Hanoi is a first-level local administrative subdivision unit, with the country’s second-largest urban population (2,644,536 people1 or 41% nationally) after Ho Chi Minh City. Provinces around Hanoi also have been rapidly urbanized. A number of cities have been established by being upgraded from towns. Many towns have been established by being upgraded from townships. And, many townships have been newly established. Since the early 2000s, a metropolitan area and indeed a conurbation – the Greater Hanoi area – has been configured. Urbanization in the Greater Hanoi area is closely linked to industrialization.
