It focuses on educational encounters that occur between the student members of the program. The program is part of current trends to reinvigorate the humanities through engagement with other professional disciplines. These new areas have been organized around the banner of the new humanities, which often address large-scale, global problems through the creation of new knowledge frameworks and experimental methodologies. The program that was studied combines the humanities with spatial disciplines to understand contemporary cities in Asia Pacific, notably Los Angeles, Tokyo, Mexico City, and Shanghai. This ii dissertation examines the program from an educational standpoint, focusing on the pedagogical processes at work within and the long-term effects that it had on students, including trajectories of research and professional practice, as well as their understanding of contemporary cities. It argues that through a variety of encounters that are structured within the educational space, new interdisciplinary academic identities are created, which last longer than the program itself, spreading into lives and future work. It proposes a pedagogical theory where this happens through a process of collective and collaborative learning, thinking, and making. Empirically, it draws on participant observation from across five program years and follow-up interviews with a wide range of students. iii The dissertation of Jonathan Young Banfill is approved.

ACKNOWLEDGEMENT Many people to thank in this wide world; you are all people who have helped me navigate both wild and calm seas, the lights guiding this ship home. First, I would like to start by thanking my academic advisor Richard Desjardins for his mentorship and friendship and conversations about academia, the state of the world, and classic rock music at our post-RAC college bar sessions. I will try to be more succinct in future endeavors! My committee members: Douglas Kellner, Edith Mukudi Omwami, Sharon Traweek, and Maite Zubiaurre. Thank you for your support, friendship, and care throughout. Each of you have contributed to this project in a distinct way and have helped me become a better interdisciplinary scholar. Doug: Thanks for always reminding me to center philosophy in education and introducing me to the work of John Dewey (and the story of owning Dewey’s desk). Edith: Thank you for providing a warm presence in the halls of Moore and always advocating for me. Sharon: Thank you for thoughtfulness, understanding of outsider positions, taking the time to have slow and meaningful conversations, and most of all always believing in my work and its place in the academy. Maite: Thank you for the anarchic energy you bring to art and life and scholarship and the wonderful Wall that Gives, I miss our explorations of trash and borderlands. xi A special acknowledgment to John Hawkins, my advisor entering GSEIS who passed away during the dissertation process. I was the last student of his long and distinguished career making educational connections across Asia Pacific. I hope to continue his legacy in the future. Thanks to all at GSEIS including staff, faculty, and administration who have been supportive over the years. Other faculty who made a difference include Rhonda Hammer, who helped me navigate the codes of the institution and always had an ear to listen and time to meet at Canters or the Farmers market. I met some incredible students teaching courses in Education, thank you for what you have taught me. Important comrades in the Education PhD include Michael Moses, Mike Ishimoto, Hui Xie, Abigail Thornton, Xiaopeng Shen, Jungwon Kim, and the all the members of the RAC throughout the years. A big thank you to all the participants of the UCLA Urban Humanities Initiative from the students to the faculty to the collaborative partners in Los Angeles, Shanghai, Mexico City, and Tokyo. As well as to all the people and places we encountered in these cities. Special gratitude to the core faculty: Dana Cuff (for making it all happen), Todd Presner (for your mentorship across the new humanities), Maite Zubiaurre (again), Anastasia Loukaitou-Sideris, & Jonathan Crisman. And my true “boss” at UHI, and now at Workroom B, Benjamin Leclair-Paquet. Thank you also to the variety of guest faculty and instructors from UCLA and beyond who led workshops, presented work, or accompanied the field trips. Also, everyone at cityLAB. Every UHI student has been important, and your collective spirits have made the project, but a few stand out in helping conceptualize key parts of this dissertation and offered additional critical conversation and insight. These include Cameron Woods Robertson, Fang-Ru Lin, Insky Chen, Peter Sebastian Chesney, Gus Wendel, Maricela Becerra, Leigh-Anna Hidalgo, Angélica xii Becerra, Lucy Seena K.

Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirement for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy March 2, 2013 © copyright by YOU GUO JIANG 2013 Conceptions about Liberal Arts Education in China Abstract Liberal arts education is an emerging phenomenon in China. However, under the pressure of exam-oriented education, memorization, and lecture pedagogy, faculty, university administrators and policy makers have not embraced it whole-heartedly. Through qualitative methodology, this study explores the current thinking of Chinese policy makers, university administrators, and faculty members on liberal arts education and its challenges. A study of the perceptions of 96 Chinese government and university administrators and faculty members regarding liberal arts education through document analysis and interviews at three universities helps in comprehending the process of an initiative in educational policy in contemporary Chinese universities. This research analyzes Chinese policy making at the institutional and national levels on curriculum reform with particular emphasis on the role of education in shaping well-rounded global citizens, and it examines how the revival of liberal arts education in China would produce college graduates with the creativity, critical thinking, moral reasoning, innovation and cognitive complexity needed for social advancement and personal integration in a global context.

The series publishes cutting edge, socially-engaged scholarship from around the world—bridging theory and practice, academic rigor and the insights of contemporary activism. The topical scope of the series encompasses anarchist history and theory broadly construed; individual anarchist thinkers; anarchist-informed analysis of current issues and institutions; and anarchist or anarchist- inspired movements and practices. Contributions informed by anti-capitalist, feminist, ecological, indigenous, and non-Western or global South anarchist perspectives are particularly welcome. So, too, are manuscripts that promise to illuminate the relationships between the personal and the political aspects of transformative social change, local and global problems, and anarchism and other movements and ideologies. Above all, we wish to publish books that will help activist scholars and scholar activists think about how to challenge and build real alternatives to existing structures of oppression and injustice.

  • China's Research in Chemical Engineering Journals in Science
    Scientometrics DOI 10.1007/s11192-013-1047-z China’s research in chemical engineering journals in Science Citation Index Expanded: a bibliometric analysis Hui-Zhen Fu • Xiao Long • Yuh-Shan Ho Received: 4 December 2012 Ó Akade´miai Kiado´, Budapest, Hungary 2013 Abstract This study was designed to evaluate China’s scientific output of chemical engineering in Science Citation Index Expanded in the Web of Science from 1992 to 2011. The document type, language, trend and collaboration patterns were analyzed, as well as the output of different journals. Distributions of article titles and abstracts, author key- words, KeyWords Plus of different periods, and the most cited articles were studied to figure out the research focuses and trends. Chinese Journal of Catalysis, Industrial & Engineering Chemistry Research, and Chinese Journal of Chemical Engineering published most of Chinese articles in the area of chemical engineering. The Chemical Engineering Department of Tsinghua University, Zhejiang University, Tianjin University, and East China University of Science and Technology were the top four institutions that published most articles in China. This study showed that adsorption, photocatalysis and synthesis have been the hot points of research in the past two decades, while ionic liquid tends to be the new area of special interest in future. Pseudo-second order model for sorption processes is getting more and more popular with great influence since its publication. In addition, the ratio of institutional independent articles: nationally collaborative articles: internationally collaborative articles has been developed to compare different institutions’ publication characteristics.
