Revisiting 1968 and the Global Sixties – Part 1 Nyu Shanghai 1
CONTENT About the Conference Program Speakers Travel information MARCH 13-15 2016 | SHANGHAI Others REVISITING 1968 AND THE GLOBAL NYU SHANGHAI No. 1555, Century Avenue, Pudong District Shanghai SIXTIES – PART 1 https://wp.nyu.edu/shang hai-1968/ March 13-15 - About Conference As the fiftieth anniversary of 1968 approaches, NYU Shanghai will host an international conference to reassess the global causes, themes, forms, and legacies of that tumultuous period. While existing scholarship continues to largely concentrate on the U.S. and Western Europe, the initiative will focus on Asia, Africa, the Middle East and Eastern Europe. Topics range from the economy, decolonization, and higher education to forms of protest, transnational relations, and the politics of memory. Younger professors and graduate students from inside and outside NYU will present their work and established scholars from NYU and elsewhere will comment. The conference attempts to inspire a new scholarly reflection on the politics of memory and historiographical narratives of the “long sixties” in preparation for the 50th anniversary of 1968 which is decidedly global and offers in-depth perspectives on previously neglected geographical areas.

According to Li Ganjie, Vice- Minister of the Ministry of Environmental Protection, safety evaluations of the 28 reactors under construction should be completed by October. Six weeks earlier, China declared its military nuclear facilities safe. Li emphasizes that the lessons from "Japan's Fukushima nuclear crisis are profound," and that China is working on a comprehensive and effective nuclear safety plan. Li confirms that China still plans to construct more than 100 reactors by 2020. On the other hand, "[China] needs to control the pace of [the nuclear energy] development," according to Zheng Yuhui, director of the research center of the China Nuclear Energy Association. The Chinese Academy of Sciences scholars add that China should maintain a relatively stable policy for nuclear power development and further strengthen nuclear safety. —中华人民共和国中央人民政府 [The Central People's Government of the People's Republic of China], "环境保护部副部长会见美国能源部核能助理部长 [Vice-Minister of the Ministry of Environmental Protection Met the United States Department of Energy's Assistant Secretary for Nuclear Energy]," 14 June 2011, www.gov.cn; "After Inspections, China Moves Ahead with Nuclear Plans," The New York Times, 17 June 2011; "China Suspends New Nuclear Plant Approvals," China Daily (Edition in English), 15 June 2011, www.chinadialy.com; "China May Resume Giving Approvals to New Nuclear Plants-Official," BBC Monitoring Asia Pacific, 25 June 2011; "Experts: China Should Keep Nuclear Power Policy Stable," People's Daily (Edition in English), 25 May 2011; "Chinese Military Nuke Facilities Declared Safe," Global Security Newswire, 1 April 2011, www.gsn.nti.org. -

ABSTRACT This article offers a Chinese perspective of the elements and approaches of what is often called China’s ‘New Diplomacy’ and argues that China’s involvement in the development of the Shanghai Cooperation Organization (SCO) can be regarded as an exemplary case of ‘China’s New Diplomacy.’ The article furthermore aims to contribute to the understanding of China’s emerging role in the international multilateral arena. The concepts that together form China’s New Diplomacy, such as the New Security Concept, the New Development Approach, and the Harmonious World, have not only been brought into practice in China’s diplomacy towards the SCO but have also been adopted as principles for conducting diplomacy within the SCO. -

Chinese Views on the South China Sea Arbitration Case Between the People’S Republic of China and the Philippines
Chinese Views on the South China Sea Arbitration Case between the People’s Republic of China and the Philippines Michael D. Swaine* The Philippines v. China arbitration case and the furor over its verdict constitute a significant development that could influence the prospects for future rivalry or cooperation in the Western Pacific. This article closely examines the viewpoints of Chinese leaders and knowledgeable observers on the arbitration case. Authoritative sources consistently indicate that China rejects the arbitration and views its verdict as detrimental to vital Chinese interests, regional stability, and international legal order. Non- authoritative sources, while reaffirming the authoritative viewpoint, believe that China enjoys some type of privileged right to exploit resources throughout the area contained within the “nine-dashed line.” China’s categorical rejection speaks to the fundamental Sino-Western division over the application of international agreements to sovereignty issues and indicates that any effort by the US or other powers to pressure Beijing will prove futile and most likely exacerbate existing tensions in the South China Sea. All authoritative sources, however, emphasize China’s commitment to peaceful bilateral negotiations to settle disputes in the South China Sea, and imply that China’s response to the verdict will depend on how other powers respond to it. This might suggest that other powers could play a major role in minimizing the damage from the arbitration and establishing a more stable modus vivendi in the South China Sea going forward. Introduction On January 23, 2013, the Philippine government (hereafter referred to as Manila) announced that it had initiated an arbitration case against the People’s Republic of China (PRC) in accordance with the dispute settlement provisions of the United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea (UNCLOS) concerning a range of issues relevant to the ongoing sovereignty dispute in the South China Sea (SCS) between the two nations. -
Mark H. Levine, Ph.D. 马克力文 Minzu University of China I Am Mark Levine
Mark H. Levine, Ph.D. 马克力文 Minzu University of China I am Mark Levine I am an American sociologist whose as an academic sociologist focused on social inequality, social movements and popular culture. Leaving the academic world in 1976 after completing my doctoral dissertation (from Bowling Green State University) on the rise of the Nazis in Germany in 1928, I became a “public sociologist.” From 1976-2005 I worked as a full-time volunteer labor and community organizer for organizations of poor workers struggling to change the conditions that made them poor. The combination of my academic background and my work as an organizer gave me a unique understanding the politics and economics of the United States, particularly as it relates to the American poor and working class. Teaching in China since 2005 After first going to Huai‟an in Jiangsu Province, because it was the home of Zhou Enlai, in 2007 I came to Beijing where I still teach at Minzu University of China in the School of Foreign Studies. In addition to Minzu University I have taught at … Huaiyin Teachers College Renmin University The Graduate School of the Chinese Academy of Social Sciences Beijing Dance Academy, Beijing Foreign Studies University as well as a number of primary, middle, high schools and training centers. In my three decades as an organizer in the US, I was an invited lecturer at … Bowling Green State University (Bowling Green, OH) Brooklyn College (Brooklyn, NY) California State University – Fullerton California State University - Los Angeles California State University
