2115_cvr.indd 2 8/10/15 12:21 PM 1 LETTER FROM THE DIRECTOR

During my first year as director of the Weatherhead East Asian Institute, I have had the privilege of engaging directly with our scholars, students, alumni, and supporters. I have also enjoyed witnessing the Institute’s lectures, workshops, and educational outreach open new roads of inquiry and research about East Asia. Looking back on the 2014–2015 academic year, I am particularly proud of the Institute’s slate of world-class events and of the inauguration of our Dorothy Borg Research Program, which will make Columbia a leader in the transnational study of East Asia and the United States.

Beginning with World Leaders Forums featuring HE Shinzo Abe, prime minister of Japan, HE Benigno S. Aquino III, president of the Republic of the Philippines, and 2012 Nobel Laureate in Literature Mo Yan, this year abounded with extraordinary events. A centerpiece of our 2014–2015 programming was “Birds of Metal in Flight: An Evening of Poetry with 5+5” (see p. 48) at the Cathedral of St. John the Divine, where artist Xu Bing’s breathtaking Phoenix installation—a pair of giant phoenixes fabricated from construction debris—hung by cables in midair. To an audience of around 500 people, five renowned Chinese poets and five eminent American poets joined together to read poems inspired by the soaring sculpture.

In addition, WEAI organized an array of all-day and multiday academic conferences, including one concerning Thailand’s current political climate (p. 46) and another celebrating the scholarship and mentorship of my distinguished colleague Madeleine Zelin, the Dean Lung Professor of Chinese Studies (p. 45). We also presented expansive lecture series that addressed such topics as modern Taiwan, human rights in East Asia, and the digital humanities. An especially popular series featured prominent museum professionals and art historians who discussed the collection and exhibition of East Asian material culture (p. 42).

I am pleased to note that our research initiatives in 2014–2015 proved to be just as ambitious as our events programming. This year, I was thrilled to help establish the Dorothy Borg Research Program (p. 37). Named in honor of Professor Dorothy Borg (1902–1993), a groundbreaking scholar of U.S.–East Asia relations at Columbia, this program offers postdoctoral positions, collaborative grants, and graduate fellowships that will generate scholarship and pedagogy examining the linkages between East Asia and the United States in ways that cross geographic, temporal, and disciplinary boundaries. I look forward to reporting on the new research, course offerings, and scholarly collaborations that this program will engender.

This year was also notable for the accolades received by our faculty. I congratulate Charles Armstrong, the Korea Foundation Professor of Korean Studies in the Social Sciences, for winning the 2014 John K. Fairbank Prize from the American Historical Association for his book Tyranny of the Weak: North Korea and the World, 1950–1992. I am also pleased to report that Carol Gluck, the George Sansom Professor of History, was honored with the 2014–2015 Cleveringa Professorship at Leiden University. And I would like to recognize Jim Cheng, director of the C. V. Starr East Asian Library, who was appointed vice president/president-elect of the Council on East Asian Libraries, and Shang-Jin Wei, N. T. Wang Professor of Chinese Business and Economy, who was appointed chief economist of the Asian Development Bank. Finally, I am happy to announce that Robert Barnett, director of Modern Tibetan Studies, has been named a senior research scholar.

This year saw several additions to the WEAI community. We welcomed Takatoshi Ito, a noted economist, who joined Columbia as a professor of international and public affairs (p. 6). Additionally, we were excited to have Jonathan M. Reynolds, a professor of art his- tory at Barnard College and an expert on Japanese visual culture and architecture, join the WEAI faculty (p. 11). We were also pleased to have Chuck Wooldridge, a historian of China at Lehman College, enter our community of research scholars (p. 23).

I am sad to report that this year saw the passing of our Harriman Institute colleague Catherine Nepomnyashchy, the Ann Whitney Olin Professor of Russian Literature and Culture at Barnard College. Last summer, Professor Nepomnyashchy co-led the Global Scholars Program (p. 52) with Charles Armstrong. We also mourn the loss of Irene Liu, who served as director of the Chinese Language Program in EALAC for many years. We will long remember their contributions to the Columbia community.

Finally, I am pleased to report that, beginning this year, we are able to offer a new scholarship to master’s degree students in both the MARSEA program and the Department of East Asian Languages and Cultures. Thanks to the generosity of the Chynn Family Foundation, the K. York Chynn Scholarship (p. 53) will provide financial support to American students of Chinese descent who seek a deeper understanding of their heritage.

I hope you enjoy learning more in the following pages about the people, events, and research that have made this a remarkable year.

INTERNATIONAL NETWORK TO EXPAND REGIONAL AND COLLABORATIVE TEACHING (INTERACT) POSTDOCTORAL FELLOWSHIP INTERACT is a pioneering, joint program of the Columbia University Weatherhead East Asian Institute, the Committee on Global Thought, the Harriman Institute, and the Institute for Comparative Literature and Society that focuses on developing global studies in

50

2115_txt Rev.indd 50 8/10/15 4:33 PM the undergraduate curriculum through a network of postdoctoral scholars focused on cross-regional, transregional, and interdisciplinary study. The Weatherhead East Asian Institute offers one INTERACT Fellowship to an outstanding scholar of modern and contemporary East Asia with a demon- strated emphasis on global context and connections. INTERACT’s primary goal is to improve global literacy among Columbia students and equip them to be leaders in a global- izing world. These objectives will be met through innovative courses, participating in Institute programs and events and an annual educator workshop organized collaboratively by INTERACT Fellows. The INTERACT fellow for 2014–2015 was Jamyung Choi. Dr. Choi received his PhD in history from the University of Pennsylvania. During the 2014–2015 academic year, he taught the seminar “The Rise of the Global Middle Class.” At Columbia, Dr. Choi also organized an INTERACT pedagogy workshop titled “Teaching from a Global Perspective” that featured Research Scholar Saskia Schäfer and educator Tucker Harding. Additionally, Dr. Choi participated in the workshop “New Directions in Japanese History” with ACLS Charles A. Ryskamp Fellow Miriam Kingsberg and Columbia Professors Kim Brandt and Małgorzata Mazurek.

2115_txt Rev.indd 56 8/10/15 4:33 PM PROJECT ON ASIA IN THE CORE CURRIULUM (PACC) FOR COLLEGE Teaching Guides for the Undergraduate Level: The Columbia Project on Asia in the Core Curriculum (PACC), involv- ing more than one hundred scholars, Asianists and non-Asianists, from 75 undergraduate institutions of different sizes and types, was inaugurated in 1984 under the sponsorship of Columbia University to support integration of Asian materials into the general educa- tion curriculum nationwide. The project has sponsored teaching institutes and publications that continued to be incor- porated into course syllabi in 2014–2015: Masterworks of Asian Literature in Comparative Perspective: A Guide for Teaching; Asian Case Studies in the Social Sciences: A Guide for Teaching; and Asia in Western and World History: A Guide for Teaching (M. E. Sharpe).

VIDEO SERIES Two series of videotapes complement the teaching guides. The video series, on the history and literature of Japan and China, are designed specifically to provide faculty with greater background in these areas. These are incorporated into the Asia for Educators website in smaller modules for faculty and student use at all educational levels and remained particularly popular with teachers in 2014–2015. The topics in the series on Japanese history and literature, produced with funding from the Japan Foundation Center for Global Partnership, are Classical Japan and The Tale of Genji (552–1185); Medieval Japan and Buddhism in Literature (1185–1600); and Tokugawa Japan and Puppet Theater, Novels, and the Haiku of Bashô (1600– 1868). Those in the series on Chinese history and literature, produced with fund- ing from the Henry Luce Foundation, are The Confucian Tradition; The Confucian Tradition in Literature—Chinese Poetry: Origins of a Literary Tradition; and The Confucian Tradition in Literature—Poetry of the Tang and Later Dynasties.
