It argues that traditions are objects of discourses that are constructed under the modern epistemic condition. Under such a condition, the modern West and its world of ideas provide major references of thought when traditions are depicted. This approach to the modernity-tradition problematic has implications for transnational communication studies on two levels. First, it calls for analyses of the specific and diverse ways in which the modern condition orients non-Western narrations of traditions. Second, it requires communication analysts to reflect on the ways in which their own interpretations of traditions, to the extent that they are impacted by the modern epistemic condition, may affect their observations about patterns of communication in cross-cultural phenomena. The thesis applies the proposed approach to study the changing discourses on "the rule of law"—an idea of Western origin—in socialist China. Employing a model of "discourse shifts" which is developed to study semiotic histories, the thesis analyzes the varying accounts of traditions in the transforming networks of discourses on "the rule of law" in China. It discusses how these accounts, while serving various social agendas, are commonly narrated within the modern epistemic framework. Moreover, it considers how divergent views on Chinese and Western traditions may lead to varied conclusions on the patterns of communication shown by the case. As such, this thesis is an alternative attempt at transnational communication analysis that highlights the importance of an integrated epistemological perspective. It also shows how such a perspective contributes to an understanding of China's modernity which avoids the teleology of the modernization paradigm, yet which does not trivialize Western influences on China. ii Acknowledgements It would be extremely difficult, if not impossible, to produce an exhaustive "thank you" list for such a project as a doctoral dissertation. I would first like to thank my supervisor, Karim Karim, for his indispensable mentorship, support, and encouragement in each phase of my doctoral study, and to thank Michael Dorland and Sheryl Hamilton for their inspiration and critiques without which the dissertation in its current form would have neither been possible. I am grateful to my supervisor and the advisory committee for their invaluable insights and comments from which I have benefited in each stage of the process. Thanks too to other faculty members and the staff in the program of Communication Studies who have made my experience at Carleton an enriching one. I am also grateful to many friends of mine whose friendship has supported me along the way. I would like to thank particularly the family of Tom Lisi and Elaine Schuetz, the family of Ania Wasilewski and Kevin Murchie, as well as the family of Chengbin Feng and Merlinda Poon, who have made Ottawa a lovely place to live in, and have brought warmth and pleasure to my cross-cultural experience. Last but not least, I am deeply indebted to my family, for the constant and invigorating encouragement and support from my husband, Nan Feng, my mother, Fan Xiaojing, and my grandparents, Fan Chao and Cao Jingchun. My baby daughter, Yanching, who was born while I was working on the dissertation, is a precious gift that grants new meanings to my life and brings me new strengths. I regret, however, that I have missed forever the chance to present the finalized dissertation to my grandparents, but I always cherish to my heart those moments together with them and am enormously grateful for what they have given to and instilled in me. iii Table of Contents Chapter 1 Introduction 1 Chapter 2 "Tradition" revisited : Chinese and Western legal heritages 44 Chapter 3 Discourse shifts 87 Chapter 4 The new socialists: Revolution and "the rule of law" 130 Chapter 5 Socialism in transformation: Post-revolution (re)emergence of the rule of law 164 Chapter 6 Contemporary languaging of the rule of law: New waves in discourse shifts 210 Chapter 7 Shadows of traditions in China's modernity: Rethinking transnational communication in the discourse shifts on the rule of law 247 References 266 Chapter 1 Introduction The relation between modernity and tradition has been defined and reworked in variegated ways in theories of transnational communication.1 However, even competing paradigms in the field share common ground in treating the two as disparate and opposed frontiers. This polarization is more evident in accounts of cultural diffusion and confrontation, where global modernity and local tradition are often taken to be in an adversarial relation. In the theories of hybridization, such a dichotomization has been challenged on the basis of evidence of various syncretisms that are said to be combinations of the global and the local. However, there still exists the tendency to conceive of hybridity as that which "highlights the mixtures and discontinuities that have characterized. .the encounter between the modern and the traditional in history" (Kraidy, 2005, p. 64; italics added). Marwan Kraidy once noted that "hybridity is a pervasive existential condition" (2004, p. 16; original italics). As celebrated as the approach of hybridization is as a subversion of other paradigms of transnational communication, one may nevertheless wonder: what, then, is the existential condition of hybridities? Are "modernity" and "tradition," if not two opposites, no more than two disparate entities only to be mingled in an epistemic vacuum? I argue that grappling with these issues leads one to the task of re-approaching modernity and tradition from a perspective of 1 1 will conduct a detailed literature review of the various theories of transnational communication later. theories.What is provided here is a brief note of the conceptualization of the modernity-tradition relation in the 1 2 epistemology. In such an approach, one may conceptualize "modernity," not as a level of social development achieved in the West, but as a pandemic epistemic condition, under which the modern West and its world of ideas provide major references of thought when social realities are defined, problems are identified, and solutions are sought. Thus, "traditions," rather than being the antithesis of modernity, are a variety of discursive products of the modern condition that are configured to advance social agendas. This alternative approach to the modernity-tradition problematic has implications for transnational communication studies on two levels. First, it calls for analyses of the specific and diverse ways in which the modern condition orients non-Western narrations of traditions. Second, it requires communication analysts to reflect on the ways in which their own interpretations of traditions, to the extent that they are impacted by the modern epistemic condition, may affect their observations about patterns of communication in cross-cultural phenomena. In fact, ifmodernity and tradition are conceptualized as connected semiotic events, then, "diffusion," "confrontation," and "hybridities" are not so much epistemologically detached descriptions as observations resulting from subjective hermeneutics of traditions.

  • Moving Labor Heroes Center Stage: (Labor) Heroism and the Reconfiguration of Social Relations in the Yan’An Period
    Journal of Chinese History (2021), 5,83–106 doi:10.1017/jch.2020.4 . RESEARCH ARTICLE Moving Labor Heroes Center Stage: (Labor) Heroism and the Reconfiguration of Social Relations in the Yan’an Period https://www.cambridge.org/core/terms Nicola Spakowski* Albert-Ludwigs-Universität Freiburg *Corresponding author. Email: [email protected] (Received 12 August 2019; revised 17 January 2020; accepted 17 January 2020) Abstract Labor heroes are an important phenomenon in the history of socialist China, but they have received only little attention in Western scholarship. This article investigates the labor heroes of the Yan’an period as the pivot in the Chinese Communist Party’s (CCP) attempt at reconceptualizing society, establishing new social relations and creating a socialist subjec- tivity. It reveals the new symbolic order constructed in the official media, primarily Jiefang Ribao (Liberation Daily), and highlights the relation between labor heroes (as representa- tives of the “masses”), intellectuals, and Mao Zedong in the construction of new hierarchies. , subject to the Cambridge Core terms of use, available at In particular, it shows how the CCP chose work as the fundament of socialist society and the core of a new concept of “collective heroism”; how the stage of the first labor hero assembly was used to orchestrate Mao Zedong as a charismatic leader; and how labor heroes and writers, through direct encounter, redefined their respective place in society. Keywords: labor heroes; China; Yan’an; Mao Zedong; Mao cult 26 Sep 2021 at 21:50:55 , on In his book-length report on Yan’an, published in 1945, foreign correspondent Gunther Stein1 opened the chapter on the peasantry with the remarkable sentence: “No person except Generalissimo Chiang Kai-shek himself has such fame in the Chungking areas as 170.106.35.76 Wu Men-yu [= Wu Manyou], a plain peasant, has in the Yenan regions.”2 Stein referred to the various social groups in Yan’an who spoke highly of Wu, including Mao Zedong, .

  • International Seminar on Silk Roads: Roads of Dialogue
    INTERNATIONAL SEMINAR ON SILK ROADS: ROADS OF DIALOGUE MALACCA, MALAYSIA 4th January 1991 Organized by: Ministry of Culture, Arts and Tourism, Malaysia National University of Malaysia Ministry of Education, Malaysia Chief Minister Department. Malacca With the Cooperation of: 1 Recent Studies in China on Admiral Zheng He's Navigation Liu Yingsheng Nanjing University, China At the end of 15th century great Portuguese sailor Vasco Da Gama returned to Europe from India. In the history of navigation, the Portuguese discovery is the very beginning of the new era. But before the Portuguese came to the east the Pacific Ocean and Indian Ocean had already been a busy commercial region for a long time. Ships of China, Southeast Asia, Sub- continent, West Asia and East Africa had kept on coming and going from east to west and from west to east. Admiral Zheng He and his fleets’ navigation in the West Pacific Ocean and Indian Ocean in the early 15th century is one of greatest achievements in the history of Chinese navigation activities. In the period from the 3rd year of Yong Le 永乐 (1405) to the 8th year of Xuan De 宣 德 (1433) Zheng He sailed 7 times to Southeast Asia and in the Indian Ocean. His fleet was the biggest in the world at that time. It consisted of more than 200 ships and more than 27,800 sailors and soldiers. The study on Zheng He's navigation activity was begun at the beginning of the Qing Dynasty when Zhang Tingyu 张廷玉 and his colleagues compiled the biography of Zheng He of the Ming Shi in the 17th century.

    Cover Page The handle http://hdl.handle.net/1887/18940 holds various files of this Leiden University dissertation. Author: Cai, Xiang-yu Title: Christianity and gender in South-East China : the chaozhou missions (1849-1949) Date: 2012-05-10 CHAPTER TWO: PROTESTANT AND CATHOLIC MISSIONS Introduction From the mid-nineteenth century, four missions—the Basel Mission, the English Presbyterian Mission (EPM), the American Baptist Mission (ABM) and Les Société des Missions Étrangères de Paris (MEP)—had a foothold in the Chaozhou region but were eventually expelled from mainland China in 1952. Since 1895, a dozen scholars have published about the history of their activities. In the first hundred years after 1895, nearly all of them were former missionaries or local church leaders.113 From the mid-1990s, historians who had no immediate connection with the missions such as Joseph Tse-Hei Lee, Hu Weiqing, and Lee Kam Keung (李金强) have stepped into this field.114 Joseph Tse-Hei Lee used the archives of the EPM and ABM as well as the British and American diplomatic sources and Chinese municipal archives to reconstruct the expansion of Protestantism into Chaozhou region in the second half of nineteenth century. He describes the transmission of Christianity in Chaozhou, a highly dynamic world with frequent migration and collective violence, which was totally different from more static, agrarian North China115. Hu Weiqing pioneered using the Chinese records of the English Presbyterian Synods at the Shantou Municipal Archives.116 His main interest was in the indigenization of Protestant Churches in Chaozhou. Lee Kam Keung has focused on the Swatow Protestant Churches in Hong Kong.

  • ABSTRACT Title of Document: the ANTI-CONFUCIAN CAMPAIGN
    ABSTRACT Title of Document: THE ANTI-CONFUCIAN CAMPAIGN DURING THE CULTURAL REVOLUTION, AUGUST 1966-JANUARY 1967 Zehao Zhou, Doctor of Philosophy, 2011 Directed By: Professor James Gao, Department of History This dissertation examines the attacks on the Three Kong Sites (Confucius Temple, Confucius Mansion, Confucius Cemetery) in Confucius’s birthplace Qufu, Shandong Province at the start of the Cultural Revolution. During the height of the campaign against the Four Olds in August 1966, Qufu’s local Red Guards attempted to raid the Three Kong Sites but failed. In November 1966, Beijing Red Guards came to Qufu and succeeded in attacking the Three Kong Sites and leveling Confucius’s tomb. In January 1967, Qufu peasants thoroughly plundered the Confucius Cemetery for buried treasures. This case study takes into consideration all related participants and circumstances and explores the complicated events that interwove dictatorship with anarchy, physical violence with ideological abuse, party conspiracy with mass mobilization, cultural destruction with revolutionary indo ctrination, ideological vandalism with acquisitive vandalism, and state violence with popular violence. This study argues that the violence against the Three Kong Sites was not a typical episode of the campaign against the Four Olds with outside Red Guards as the principal actors but a complex process involving multiple players, intraparty strife, Red Guard factionalism, bureaucratic plight, peasant opportunism, social ecology, and ever- evolving state-society relations. This study also maintains that Qufu locals’ initial protection of the Three Kong Sites and resistance to the Red Guards were driven more by their bureaucratic obligations and self-interest rather than by their pride in their cultural heritage.

Chapter One describes the methodological basis. Many ancient Chinese texts underwent periods of oral transmission, but the effect on their form and content has been little researched. Theme and formula are important for understanding the development of these texts. The hegemons are also investigated for the degree to which they conform to greater patterns: the Indo-European models of the hero and good ruler.
