  • That the Earliest Groups of Jews Came to China Via the Overland Silk Road
    Jews in China: Legends, History and New Perspectives By PAN Guang Jews in Ancient China: The Case of Kaifeng It was during the Tang Dynasty (around the 7th - 8th Century) that the earliest groups of Jews came to China via the overland Silk Road. Others then may come by sea to the coastal areas before moving inland. A few scholars believe that Jews came to China as early as the Han Dynasty (206 B.C. – 220 A.D.) — some even go so far as to place their arrival earlier, during the Zhou Dynasty (around the 6th Century B.C.) — though there have been no archaeological discoveries that would prove such claims. After entering China, Jews lived in many cities and areas, but it was not until in the Song Dynasty (960-1279) that the Kaifeng Jewish Community formed. In the Northern Song Dynasty, a group of Jews came to the then capital Dongjing (now Kaifeng, as it will be referred to below). They were warmly received by the authorities and allowed to live in Kaifeng as Chinese while keeping their own traditions and religious faith. Thereafter, they enjoyed, without prejudice, the same rights and treatment as the Han peoples in matters of residence, mobility, employment, education, land transactions, religious beliefs and marriage. In such a safe, stable and comfortable environment, Jews soon demonstrated their talents in business and finance, achieving successes in commerce and trade and becoming a rich group in Kaifeng. At the same time, their religious activities increased. In 1163, the Jews in Kaifeng built a synagogue right in the heart of the city.

As far as I recall, I came up with this idea of studying city water infrastructures as a midway to combine my archaeology background and the new pursuit of STS and urban history. But my father insists that he is the one who crafted the theme in one of our many conversations. Either way, I owe a great deal to my parents, whose integrity, compassion, patriotism, and thirst for knowledge never cease to amaze me. Living up to their expectation is not easy. With this dissertation completed I hope I am half way there. Six years ago, I decided to come to Georgia Tech for my PhD study. It turned out to be one of the best decisions I have ever made.

  • The German-Jewish Refugees in Shanghai During the Second World War Leah Gottheiner (2005) “My Mother Did Not Want to Leave Breslau, Especially to Go to Shanghai
    You Don’t Have to Live Like a Refugee: The German-Jewish Refugees in Shanghai During the Second World War Leah Gottheiner (2005) “My mother did not want to leave Breslau, especially to go to Shanghai. If my older brother had not fled to Shanghai on his own in 1938 forcing my mother to give in to be near her first-born son, I’m sure that I would not be alive today. We were among the last to get out.”[1] In June of 1940, my grandfather Hans Gottheiner and his parents Jon and Frieda boarded a train in Breslau, Germany. This train was one of the very last available means of escape for a Jewish family from Nazi Germany. Young Hans, only ten years old, and his parents traveled through the Soviet Union, stopping in such places as Moscow and Siberia, until finally arriving six weeks later in Shanghai, China, the only haven open to them. Hans and his parents spent the next eight years living in Shanghai while hoping to someday move to a more desirable and permanent location. In the late 1930s and early 1940s thousands of Jews in Germany and Austria were fortunate to escape the persecution of the Nazis. Often these Jews fled Europe with little more than the clothes on their backs, but still maintained the hope that life in their new homes had to be better than the horrors they had experienced under the Nazis. Shanghai became an unexpected refuge for nearly twenty thousand Jews during the Holocaust, but the city posed obstacles of its own.

  • The Jewish Company of the Shanghai Volunteer Corps, 1932–42
    10 Trans 41 2/26/07 9:17 AM Page 183 Jewish Historical Studies, volume 41, 2007 Hagedud Ha-Sini: The Jewish Company of the Shanghai Volunteer Corps, 1932–42 MARTIN SUGARMAN The Shanghai Volunteer Corps (SVC) was set up in 1853 as a voluntary international militia by various European countries, and including Russia, Japan and the USA, to protect their foreign-trade missions from the frequent local civil wars and general disorder in Shanghai during the nine- teenth and early twentieth centuries. At one time the SVC had volunteers of more than twenty different nationalities. It was usually mobilized in response to riots or to augment regular foreign garrisons in the city (a strategic reserve) or to form expeditionary forces, such as during the Boxer Rebellion in 1900. For most of its existence, the force was funded by the Shanghai Municipal Council, but volunteers received no pay, with the exception of the professional White Russian Company. It comprized at its peak twenty-three different units, among them Light Horse, Artillery and Air Defence, as well as national units such as Portuguese and Chinese. These included from 1932 a Jewish Company.1 The SVC’s roll at its peak in the late 1930s was 2300 men. Its longest mobi- lization was in August 1937 during the Sino-Japanese War. The Japanese had surrounded the city from 1932, and the SVC’s task was to keep them out and to help patrol the entry points facing the Japanese forces. When the British formally withdrew in 1940, the SVC took permanent control of the so-called International Settlement, the area within the city where the foreign residents lived and mostly worked.

  • Jewish Past and Colonial Shanghai: Trade, Treaty-Port, and Transitive Modernity
    JEWISH PAST AND COLONIAL SHANGHAI: TRADE, TREATY-PORT, AND TRANSITIVE MODERNITY BY JIN GONG DISSERTATION Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in East Asian Languages and Cultures in the Graduate College of the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, 2016 Urbana, Illinois Doctoral Committee: Professor Dan Shao, Chair Professor Poshek Fu Professor Eugene Avrutin Professor Kai-wing Chow ii Abstract This dissertation explores the transnational and colonial encounters of Sephardic Jews and Chinese in treaty-port Shanghai by examining 1) the Jewish networks of capital, goods, and market; 2) Jewish elites and their political activism; 3) transnational legal and political status of Sephardic Jewish elites in Shanghai and 4) Jewish cultural heritage in Shanghai. A central argument of this work is that as an expatriate business community living in treaty-port Shanghai, Sephardic Jews took advantage of the British colonial system to achieve wealth and at the same time established extensive contacts with the Chinese in Shanghai. As a result, they deeply influenced Shanghai’s economic, political and social institutions and rhythms of life. Using both Chinese and English archival resources, a wide range of Chinese and English language newspapers and periodicals, this study contributes new materials and analyses to three areas of scholarly research: the modern history of Shanghai, Jewish diaspora in port-cities, and colonial studies in China. Ultimately, the purpose of this study is twofold: to document the economic/social encounters of Jews and Chinese in a colonial context and to examine the urbanization and modernization process of Shanghai itself as a result of this encounter.

    ABSTRACT Title of Document: PUBLIC WORKS, MODERNITY, AND CHINESE NATIONALISM IN SHANGHAI, 1911-1941 Nancy Nalezyty, M.A., 2009 Directed By: Professor James Z. Gao, Department of History This thesis focuses on the roads and public services created by the SMC because they are a topic which clearly illustrates the ambiguity of colonial modernism in Shanghai. This colonial modernism, which in Shanghai was largely instigated by the SMC, is a process which not only made the Chinese victims of colonial modernity, but also taught the Chinese the value of this Western modernity. This thesis will attempt to re-examine the urban expansion of Shanghai by focusing less on the diplomatic aspect of this topic and instead on examining the use of each parcel of land as a part of the urban infrastructure and how this affected the modernization and nationalism in China. It will do so by exploring the building of roads and other public services by the SMC, during the majority of the Chinese Republican Period. It will focusing less on cultural aspects and instead will focus on use of land, construction of roads, and the development of urban infrastructure, which gave rise to colonial modernism and Chinese nationalism.
