  • Inventory of Environmental Work in China
    INVENTORY OF ENVIRONMENTAL WORK IN CHINA In this fifth issue of the China Environment Series, the Inventory of Environmental Work in China has been updated and we made extra effort to add many new groups, especially in the Chinese organization section. To better highlight the growing number of U.S. universities and professional associations active in China we have created a separate section. In the past inventories we have gathered information from U.S. government agencies; from this year forward we will be inventorying the work done by other governments as well. This inventory aims to paint a clearer picture of the patterns of aid and investment in environmental protection and energy-efficiency projects in the People’s Republic of China. We highlight a total of 118 organizations and agencies in this inventory and provide information on 359 projects. The five categories of the inventory are listed below: Part I (p. 138): United States Government Activities (15 agencies/organizations, 103 projects) Part II (p. 163): U.S. and International NGO Activities (33 organizations, 91 projects) Part III (p. 190): U.S. Universities and Professional Association Activities (9 institutions, 27 projects) Part IV (p. 196): Chinese and Hong Kong NGO and GONGO Activities (50 organizations, 61 projects) Part V (p. 212): Bilateral Government Activities (11 agencies/organizations, 77 projects) Since we have expanded the inventory, even more people than last year contributed to the creation of this inventory. We are grateful to all of those in U.S. government agencies, international and Chinese nongovernmental organizations, universities, as well as representatives in foreign embassies who generously gave their time to compile and summarize the information their organizations and agencies undertake in China.

  • Highlights of the Development of Seal Carving in Hong Kong Over the Past 150 Years
    Highlights of the Development of Seal Carving in Hong Kong over the Past 150 Years LAU Ho-man Samantha Hong Kong has played an integral role in the development of the Lingnan seal community for a significant amount of time. As early as the 1930s and 1940s, the number of migrant scholars, epigraphers (jinshi jia) and seal carvers in Hong Kong dramatically increased as a result of the ongoing civil war in Mainland China. These artisans and scholars often either stayed in Hong Kong briefly, settled permanently, or regularly travelled between Guangdong and Hong Kong. Over the course of several decades, countless seal carvers, scholars, influential figures and activities were involved in the burgeoning seal community. Through teaching, cultural gatherings, publishing, organising exhibitions and establishing societies, these participants laid the cornerstone for the development of the Hong Kong seal community. Despite this, there has not yet been any significant research regarding the history of seal carving in Hong Kong – only a very small number of scholars have conducted research in this area, and only several articles have been written about it in the past century. Tang Cheong-shing, a contemporary seal carver, first wrote “Xianggang zhuanke fazhan gaikuang (An overview of the development of seal carving in Hong Kong)” in 1988 and the content of this article has been more or less repeated in his subsequent writings, including “Xianggang zhuanke fazhan shi (The history of seal carving development in Hong Kong)” (1989) and “Seal Carving in Hong Kong – Retrospection” (1995), which provided an overview of the development of Hong Kong seal carving between the 1940s and 1980s.
