This book is dedicated to exploring new trends and themes in Chinese foreign policy, with the aim of adding new insights to the existing literature and opening up opportunities for further specialised research. The book is divided into to three sections: National, touching on issues within China and its periphery; Transnational, looking at how concepts and people influence power; and finally, International, examining China’s interactions with the other regions and nations. The chapters work together to offer a sweeping overview of a multitude of new perspectives on China’s interactions and activities throughout the world. viii Contributors Ilaria Carrozza is a PhD candidate in International Relations at the London School of Economics and Political Science, working on Sino-African security relations and foreign policy analysis.

  • Nuclear Weapons Security Crises
    CHAPTER 3 SECURING NUCLEAR ARSENALS: A CHINESE CASE STUDY Mark A. Stokes INTRODUCTION Nuclear warhead stockpile security has long been a concern of the major powers. Of particular concern is the potential theft of nuclear warheads and associ- ated materials, or a breakdown in command and con- trol authority over their use during periods of domes- tic instability. Since the inception of its program in the 1950s, the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) has granted nuclear warheads special political signifi- cance. The value of nuclear weapons resides not only in their international deterrent/coercive significance, but also in the domestic power and political legitimacy that a faction enjoys with control over the means of mass destruction. Domestic instability in the People’s Republic of China (PRC) during the initial stages of nuclear warhead production could serve as an illustra- tion of how one nuclear power has absorbed lessons from threats to the security of a warhead stockpile. China’s Great Proletarian Cultural Revolu- tion, which began in 1966 and ended by 1976, is the prominent case in which political instability could have resulted in the loss of control of China’s limited nuclear weapons stockpile. The domestic chaos that characterized this period coincided with a signifi- cant deterioration of relations with the former Soviet Union. Perceived domestic and external threats likely shaped the highly centralized approach to securing the 65 national nuclear warhead stockpile that the Chinese People’s Liberation Army (PLA) continues to employ until today. During the initial stages of China’s program, its system of storage and handling nuclear warheads was relatively integrated with its civilian nuclear research and development (R&D) and production complex.

  • Transnational Civil Society, Religion, and Power
    ABSTRACT Title of dissertation: GLOBAL ISLAM IN THE AGE OF CIVIL SOCIETY: TRANSNATIONAL CIVIL SOCIETY, RELIGION, AND POWER Zeynep Atalay, Doctor of Philosophy, 2012 Dissertation directed by: Roberto Patricio Korzeniewicz Department of Sociology This dissertation examines the instrumental benefits of civil society discourse for Muslim civil society organizations and their pursuit of conservative agendas. Since early 1990, informal religious communities in the Muslim world have been reestablishing themselves as formal NGOs at unprecedented rates. Additionally, they are joining forces and forming transnational coalitions. The constituents’ goals of religious support and solidarity remain unchanged in terms of their commitment to conservative and religious norms. By contrast, existing transnational civil society literature is dominated with assumptions of liberal and secular agendas. Yet, despite the seemingly inherent contradiction, the members of these faith-based organizations and coalitions persistently position themselves within the sphere of civil society. This dissertation problematizes this conflict and asks: Why are the previously informal Islamist networks adopting the discourse of civil society, transforming into formal NGOs, and establishing transnational coalitions? In this study, I examine one of the largest Muslim NGO coalitions to date - the Union of the NGOs of the Islamic World (UNIW). With its 193 member NGOs from 46 countries, the UNIW aims to consolidate faith-based Muslim NGOs and to coordinate member actions for the welfare of Muslim communities around the world. Based on fieldwork conducted in Turkey, Germany, the U.S., Malaysia and Cambodia, I employ qualitative and ethnographic methods and draw on diverse sources of data including in-depth interviews, participant observation and document analysis.

    The Impact of Global English in Xinjiang, China: Linguistic Capital and Identity Negotiation among the Ethnic Minority and Han Chinese Students Ge Jian A dissertation submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy University of Washington 2016 Reading Committee: Laada Bilaniuk, Chair Ann Anagnost, Chair Stevan Harrell Program Authorized to Offer Degree: Anthropology © Copyright 2016 Ge Jian University of Washington Abstract The Impact of Global English in Xinjiang, China: Linguistic Capital and Identity Negotiation among the Ethnic Minority and Han Chinese Students Ge Jian Chair of the Supervisory Committee: Professor Laada Bilaniuk Professor Ann Anagnost Department of Anthropology My dissertation is an ethnographic study of the language politics and practices of college- age English language learners in Xinjiang at the historical juncture of China’s capitalist development. In Xinjiang the international lingua franca English, the national official language Mandarin Chinese, and major Turkic languages such as Uyghur and Kazakh interact and compete for linguistic prestige in different social scenarios. The power relations between the Turkic languages, including the Uyghur language, and Mandarin Chinese is one in which minority languages are surrounded by a dominant state language supported through various institutions such as school and mass media. The much greater symbolic capital that the “legitimate language” Mandarin Chinese carries enables its native speakers to have easier access than the native Turkic speakers to jobs in the labor market. Therefore, many Uyghur parents face the dilemma of choosing between maintaining their cultural and linguistic identity and making their children more socioeconomically mobile. The entry of the global language English and the recent capitalist development in China has led to English education becoming market-oriented and commodified, which has further complicated the linguistic picture in Xinjiang.

  • Uyghur Dispossession, Culture Work and Terror Capitalism in a Chinese Global City Darren T. Byler a Dissertati
    Spirit Breaking: Uyghur Dispossession, Culture Work and Terror Capitalism in a Chinese Global City Darren T. Byler A dissertation submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy University of Washington 2018 Reading Committee: Sasha Su-Ling Welland, Chair Ann Anagnost Stevan Harrell Danny Hoffman Program Authorized to Offer Degree: Anthropology ©Copyright 2018 Darren T. Byler University of Washington Abstract Spirit Breaking: Uyghur Dispossession, Culture Work and Terror Capitalism in a Chinese Global City Darren T. Byler Chair of the Supervisory Committee: Sasha Su-Ling Welland, Department of Gender, Women, and Sexuality Studies This study argues that Uyghurs, a Turkic-Muslim group in contemporary Northwest China, and the city of Ürümchi have become the object of what the study names “terror capitalism.” This argument is supported by evidence of both the way state-directed economic investment and security infrastructures (pass-book systems, webs of technological surveillance, urban cleansing processes and mass internment camps) have shaped self-representation among Uyghur migrants and Han settlers in the city. It analyzes these human engineering and urban planning projects and the way their effects are contested in new media, film, television, photography and literature. It finds that this form of capitalist production utilizes the discourse of terror to justify state investment in a wide array of policing and social engineering systems that employs millions of state security workers. The project also presents a theoretical model for understanding how Uyghurs use cultural production to both build and refuse the development of this new economic formation and accompanying forms of gendered, ethno-racial violence.

  • One of the Endangered Languages: Yellow Uyghur
    bilig SUMMER 2017/NUMBER 82 133-152 One of the Endangered Languages: Yellow Uyghur Abdürreşit Celil Karluk* Abstract The Yellow Uyghur language is used by the Yellow Uy- ghur, one of the official minorities recognized by the Chinese government. The Yellow Uyghurs generally in- habit the Sunan Yellow Uyghur Autonomous County in China. Recent data suggests that the total population of the Yellow Uyghur in China is only around 15 thousand but only around half of the population of Yellow Uyghurs can use their language in everyday life. Instead, Mandarin Chinese, as a component of China’s compulsory educa- tion system, has begun to replace the Yellow Uyghur both in the home and in several social realms. Drawing upon studies from social anthropology and socio-linguistic studies, this paper will consider the impacts that mono- lingual education policies in minorities areas, especially in Yellow Uyghur area, mixed marriages, and the sense of losing “ethno-memory” have on the marginalization of the Yellow Uyghur language. Keywords Endangered language, Yellow Uyghur, Minority, Chinese Education System, Mixed Marriage * Prof. Dr., Ankara Yıldırım Beyazıt University, Department of Sociology – Ankara/Turkey [email protected] 133 bilig SUMMER 2017/NUMBER 82 • Karluk, One of the Endangered Languages: Yellow Uyghur• Introduction The Yellow Uyghurs,1 one China’s minority nationalities with a relatively small population, mainly inhabits the Sunan Yellow Uyghur Autonomous County and the Jiuquan city Huangnipu Yellow Uyghur Autonomous Township in Gansu Province. The Yellow Uyghur minority are Turkic people who use three languages and believe in Tibetan Buddhism. According to data collected during the 5th national census in the year 2000, the Yellow Uyghur’s total population was 13.719, the 48th largest minority population in China.
