Upon arriving in tropical Singapore for my postgraduate study, I realized there was a place in the world with four seasons of summer. I owe my thanks to many teachers, who have not only helped me realize my childhood dream, but also given their best effort to cultivate a “new me” over the years. I am very grateful to my supervisor Professor Els van Dongen. She is the most ideal supervisor one could wish for. With her expertise in the research area of my dissertation, she has offered important constructive suggestions on this project. Following each enlightened conversation with her, I felt refreshed in my writing journey. She has also taught me how to move forward step by step to achieve the final goal. I thank her for her meticulous reading and commenting on the drafts. Without her considerate and unfailing help, this dissertation would not have been completed. I also feel indebted to my former supervisor Professor Chen Song-chuan. I would like to thank him for opening the door to my postgraduate life, believing in me all the way and encouraging me to explore the world “either inward or outward.” It was under his guidance that I found my way ahead. I express my gratitude to Professor Liu Hong, who provided me with the opportunity to study at this university, guided me to the attractive research field of migration studies and impressed me greatly with his idea of “centrality,” that people’s views differ based on where they are i situated. This has provided me with a better understanding of the variety in the world and the differences between people. My confirmation exercise panel members assisted me a lot in developing this dissertation. Professor Yow Cheun Hoe led me to the interesting part of how communities struggle between the market and the state. Professor Masuda Hajimu raised the most fundamental question of “so what,” which has been lingering in my mind throughout this research project. Professor He Baogang offered sparking thoughts to direct this dissertation from a citizenship perspective. Without these constructive suggestions, this dissertation would have been different from what it is today. I also owe thanks to Nanyang Technological University, especially the School of Humanities and the School of Social Sciences, without which this dissertation could not have been undertaken. I thank the nice professors and friends here: Evelyn Hu-DeHart, Gregor Benton, Scott Anthony, Miles Powell, Koh Keng We, Hallam Stevens, Goh Geok Yian, Ngoei Wen-Qing, Lisa Onaga, Jessica Hinchy, J. Patrick Williams, Fang Xiaoping, Ong Soon Keong, Yan Bo, Zhang Lili and many more. It was so wonderful studying and living with all of you. The Graduate School of Asia-Pacific Studies, Waseda University provided me with a precious fieldwork trip to Japan. I am grateful for my advisor Professor Gracia Liu-Farrer and I thank her for offering much guidance on the direction of the research project. I also benefited from her seminar that featured peer presentations, in which we exchanged ideas and information with important critical feedback. Under the guidance of advisor Professor Glenda S. Roberts, I gained valuable insights into this specific area of migration in anthropology. ii My gratitude is extended to the professors I worked with during my fieldwork in Japan. Professor Satoshi Amako, of Waseda University introduced me to the participants and commented on my topic. Professor Akira Matsuura offered me access to resources at Kansai University. Ms. Xie Chongyi and Mr. Hidenori Sakanaka sent me much useful research material. Professor Liao Chiyang showed great interest in this project and offered guidance on my fieldwork. Professor Xiong Dayun offered me the opportunity to be a guest lecturer in his class. In addition, this dissertation could not have moved forward without my interviewees in Japan. Although I cannot list their names, I express my thanks to all of them for sharing their personal expriences, feelings, and thoughts with me. I owe a lot to Professor Aihwa Ong at the University of California, Berkeley. I appreciated having the opportunity to study under her and to profit from her expertise in the special problems immigrants face, especially those related to cultural citizenship. I learned more from Professor Ong about the perspectives of anthropology. The discussions we had centered on her writings and my own research proposal. Her guidance was invaluable, helping me to see how to apply different sets of concepts to historically and anthropologically investigate comparatively common subjects. My wholehearted gratitude goes to Professor Qian Wanyue, my advisor in my undergraduate and Master’s degree studies. She has been so supportive in encouraging me to pursue, to question, and to love. I thank Professor Wang Zhenping for providing me delicate care during the research project and patient guidance on dissertation writing. Finally, my thanks go to my big family. Thanks to my parents, my parents in law, and my sunshine. My husband means more to me than I can say. Nine years of companionship is neither iii long nor short. You guide me, encourage me, and support me to be myself and move forward. Without your love, nothing could be possible; without your love, no dream could come true. As I write down these lines, it is pouring rain outside. In the past four years, the heavy rains and rainbows, the warm outdoor pool by the hill, the jogging track along the forests, and the aroma of trees and flowers in the air have charged me with energy and healed me. Thanks for the wonderful life here. iv TABLE OF CONTENTS ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS ................................................................................................................... i TABLE OF CONTENTS ...................................................................................................................... v SUMMARY ........................................................................................................................................ vii A LIST OF TABLES AND FIGURES ................................................................................................. x CHAPTER ONE: INTRODUCTION ................................................................................................... 1 Historical trajectory of Chinese highly skilled migration ..................................................... 5 Literature review on the highly skilled Chinese migrants ................................................... 15 Cultural citizenship practices in transnational social spaces: research framework and significance ......................................................................................................................... 20 Research methods and sources ............................................................................................ 30 Chapter overview ................................................................................................................ 37 CHAPTER TWO: CHINESE MIGRANT ACADEMICS IN JAPAN IN THE AGE OF REFORM 40 Going abroad to study: policy changes in China ................................................................ 41 Inflow of migrant talent: foreigner policy shifts in Japan ................................................... 50 A diversified Chinese migrant academic community in Japan: an overview ..................... 56 The diverse migratory paths to Japan.................................................................................. 59 Going to Japan out of diverse motives ................................................................................ 65 Conclusion .......................................................................................................................... 77 CHAPTER THREE: ETHNIC CAPITAL: KNOWLEDGE PRODUCTION AND DISSEMINATION AT JAPANESE UNIVERSITIES ...................................................................... 78 Internationalization paths of Japanese universities ............................................................. 80 An occupational niche for migrant academics at Japanese universities .............................. 87 Weaving the ethnic capital into knowledge production and dissemination ........................ 98 The ethnicity paradox of migrant academic faculty at Japanese universities ................... 110 Conclusion .......................................................................................................................

    Popular Movements and Violence in East Asia in the Nineteenth Century: Comparing the Ideological Foundations of their Legitimation Hang-seob Bae Sungkyun Journal of East Asian Studies, Volume 17, Number 2, October 2017, pp. 233-260 (Article) Published by Duke University Press For additional information about this article https://muse.jhu.edu/article/678111 [ Access provided at 6 Oct 2021 19:55 GMT with no institutional affiliation ] Sungkyun Journal of East Asian Studies Vol.17 No.2 © 2017 Academy of East Asian Studies. 233-260 DOI: 10.21866/esjeas.2017.17.2.006 Popular Movements and Violence in East Asia in the Nineteenth Century: Comparing the Ideological Foundations of their Legitimation Hang-seob BAE Sungkyunkwan University ABSTRACT In the nineteenth century, people in China, Korea, and Japan actively participated in popular protests. The rebellions in those countries had much in common, but one of the most striking differences is the degree of violence inflicted by these popular movements on their opponents. Chinese popular rebels were much more likely to kill or injure others than their counterparts in Korea and Japan. Such differences seem to be closely associated with the question of whether the rebel forces fought due to conflicting interests within the polity, or were seeking to build a new kingdom by pursuing a newly-risen religion while rejecting the existing ruling system and ideology that legitimized it. This paper will examine how the rebel forces based the legitimacy of their actions in relation to each country’s “political culture.” While popular movements in the West or the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom were based on the idea that God was more powerful than the secular ruler, popular movements in Korea or Japan did not have a transcendent source of authority that was superior to the monarch.

  • The Book of Abstracts
    BOOK OF ABSTRACTS Correct as of 6th September 2019 1 PANELS A Panel 53 Sourcing Korea in Korean History: Historical Sources and the Production of Knowledge of Korea’s Pasts This panel investigates one of the fundamental challenges facing historians: that of the limits and possibilities of historical sources. Korean history has flourished as an academic field in recent decades, alongside a dramatic growth in archives and databases of primary sources. This expansion of both primary and secondary sources on Korean history provides an opportune moment to reflect on how historical knowledge of Korea has developed in tandem with the availability of a wider variety of primary sources. While appreciating the general trends in the production of Korean history, this panel poses questions over how newly available primary sources are changing historical narratives of Korea. In particular, we complicate pre-conceived notions of Korean history, as developments in both local and transnational history challenge existing understandings of “Korean” history. John S. Lee discusses differences between bureaucratic and local sources, to argue for a pluralist perspective on Chosŏn environmental knowledge that reflects the production of sources by different interest groups. Holly Stephens discusses conflicting accounts of the colonial period and the challenge posed by hanmun diaries to standard histories of Korea’s colonization. In particular, she questions the politicization of everyday life that emerges from distinct sets of sources. Finally, Luis Botella examines alternative presentations of archaeological knowledge in postwar South Korea that highlight the influence of American, Soviet, colonial, and post-colonial frames of knowledge in defining formative narratives of Korean history.

  • Unlocking the Potential of Kansai Companies
    Unlocking the potential of Kansai companies McKinsey Japan Kansai Office June 2018 Authored by: André Andonian Motohiro Hojo Raymond Chan Daruma dolls at Katsuo-ji temple, Osaka. The script character on the dolls means “victory” in Japanese. Unlocking the potential of Kansai companies Preface The world is now facing change on a scale surpassing that of the Industrial Revolution. Today, such change is driven by several disruptive forces, including the growth of emerging economies, the disruptive evolution of technology, the increasing interconnectedness of the global economy, and the aging of populations across the world. One intriguing phenomenon leading from these forces, especially as economies and markets around the world grow more tightly linked, is the gradual rise in importance of regions and cities rather than countries. In other words, regional and metropolitan attractiveness and competitiveness today hold increasingly greater sway than do the countries containing those regions and cities. What does this mean for Kansai? Fundamentally, Kansai leaders need to consider both the sustainable growth of the region as well as the international competitiveness of its cities. They should consider how Kansai can evolve, using its historical, cultural, academic, and infrastructural advantages to create a grand vision for the future, and make the bold moves required to achieve that vision. A worthy vision for the public sector and infrastructure related sectors, such as electricity, gas, transit, construction, telecommunications, and broadcasting, could be to establish a region that enables sustainable lifestyles, leading to improved core competitiveness and attractiveness throughout the region. The manufacturing and service sectors, by contrast, could focus on a vision grounded in global competitiveness, achieved by undertaking organizational transformations, productivity improvements, and growth investments in innovation and M&A.

  • Everyday Mobility: the Normalization of China- Japan Migratory Flows and Their ‘Everyday Practice’
    DOI: 10.1515/irsr-2013-0002 IRSR INTERNATIONAL REVIEW of SOCIAL RESEARCH Volume 3, Issue 1, February 2013, 7-26 International Review of Social Research Everyday Mobility: the Normalization of China- Japan Migratory Flows and their ‘Everyday Practice’ Jamie COATES• Department of Anthropology School of Culture, History and Language Australian National University Abstract: Chinese migrants now constitute the largest group of registered ‘foreigners’ in Japan, with over 600,000 documented in 2006. This is the result of an intersection between the Chinese government’s drive for educational and economic success, and Japan’s flexible student visa labour system. It is the product of a ‘normalization’ of mobility amongst young mobile Chinese. Based on 20 months fieldwork in Tokyo, Japan, I explore the ways in which the decision to move is experienced as mundane, and how it is negotiated as a form of ‘everyday practice.’ Through this lens, this article posits multiple relationships between mobility, its limits and how this relates to mobile people’s sense of place in the world. Keywords: Japan, China, young mobility, everyday practice. Contemporary movements between selected. Furthermore, the restrictive China and Japan defy simple limitations imposed on Chinese tourist classification. Like other forms of visas mean that many Chinese people mobility, the boundaries between with ‘touristic’ aspirations choose other categories of movement such as tourist, visas which afford greater mobility. As student and migrant are blurred. such, mobility is the primary marker of Moreover, the visas which define these people rather than classificatory people’s movements between China terms such as migrant, tourist, student and Japan do not necessarily encompass or labourer.

  • Multilingual Experiences, Media Consumption, and Transnational Identity in a Double Diasporic Context: the Case of Korean-Chinese in Japan
    Keio Communication Review No.37, 2015 Multilingual Experiences, Media Consumption, and Transnational Identity in a Double Diasporic Context: The Case of Korean-Chinese in Japan LEE Jinah* and LEE Kwangho** With the growing migration and human mobility, diaspora, a dispersed and scattered population from their original home country to another country, is increasing. People’s motivation to migrate to another place in search of better opportunities and quality of life makes them move further from the country they had settled once as diaspora to another country, which leads them to become ‘double diaspora.’ The current study is to explore the relationship between diasporic identity and media consumption of Korean-Chinese which continue to get attention as important diaspora in the East Asia(Asahi Shimbun, 2010, February 13), focusing on their double diasporic and multilingual experiences in Japan. For the purpose of the study, the primary focus of the following literature review is placed on the diasporic experiences and identity of Korean-Chinese and media consumption of diaspora. Living as Diaspora: Korean-Chinese and Their Diasporic Experiences Korean-Chinese are descendants of Korean immigrants who have settled down in the Northeast China between the late 1800s and early 1990s. As of November 1, 2010, the population of Korean-Chinese amounts to 1,830,929 according to the 6th National Population Census of the People's Republic of China, a decrease of 4.6 percent from 1,920,597 of the 4th National Population Census in 1990(Inminnet, 2012, July 23). Their ethnic communities are concentrated in the Northeast China, accounting for 87.8 percent of the Korean-Chinese in China(Jilin: 1,040,167; Heilongjiang: 327,806; Liaoning: 239,537, Inminnet, 2012, July 23).
