Ideology in Urban South Vietnam, 1950-1975 A
IDEOLOGY IN URBAN SOUTH VIETNAM, 1950-1975 A Dissertation Submitted to the Graduate School of the University of Notre Dame in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy by Tuan Hoang ______________________________ Wilson Miscamble, CSC, Director Graduate Program in History Notre Dame, Indiana April 2013 © Copyright by Tuan Hoang 2013 All rights reserved IDEOLOGY IN URBAN SOUTH VIETNAM, 1950-1975 Abstract by Tuan Hoang This dissertation addresses the subject of noncommunist political and cultural ideology in urban South Vietnam during 1954-1975. It contributes to the historiography of the Vietnam War, specifically on the long-neglected Republic of Vietnam (RVN) that has received greater attention in the last decade. The basic argument is that the postcolonial ideological vision of most urban South Vietnamese diverged greatly from that of the Vietnamese communist revolutionaries. This vision explains for the puzzling question on why the communist revolutionaries were far more effective in winning the minds and hearts of Vietnamese in countryside than in cities. At the same time, this vision was complicated by the uneasy relationship with the Americans. The dissertation examines four aspects in particular. First is the construction of anticommunism: Although influenced by Cold War bipolarity, anticommunism in urban South Vietnam was shaped initially and primarily by earlier differences about modernity and post-colonialism. It was intensified through intra-Vietnamese experiences of the First Indochina War. Tuan Hoang The second aspect is the promotion of individualism. Instead of the socialist person as advocated by communist revolutionaries, urban South Vietnamese promoted a bourgeois petit vision of the postcolonial person. -

From Hollywood to Shanghai: American Silent Films in China
From Hollywood to Shanghai: American Silent Films in China by Qian Zhang BA, Shanghai International Studies University, 1993 MA, Shanghai Theatre Academy, 2000 Submitted to the Graduate Faculty of School of Arts and Sciences in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy University of Pittsburgh 2009 UNIVERSITY OF PITTSBURGH School of Arts and Sciences This dissertation was presented by Qian Zhang It was defended on April 3, 2009 and approved by Professor Ronald J. Zboray, Advisor, Communication Professor Lucy Fischer, English/Film Studies Professor Lester Olson, Communication Assistant Professor Xinmin Liu, East Asian Languages and Literatures/Film Studies ii Copyright © by Qian Zhang 2009 iii Advisor: Ronald J. Zboray From Hollywood to Shanghai: American Silent Films in China Qian Zhang, PhD University of Pittsburgh, 2009 My dissertation re-constructs the history of Hollywood movies in 1920s Shanghai through archival work in both China and the United States. Before that decade, film exhibition in China was little more than a novelty with limited social influence. The 1920s saw a boom in American film production and attempts to develop foreign markets for it. Consequently, Hollywood films flooded into China, just ahead of the development of the local national film industry in the late 1920s, and hence shaped the environment for that development. As heralds of a new medium with unprecedented capacity for shaping people’s perceptions, beliefs, and viewpoints, American films were received and interpreted by Chinese audiences in a transnational context. My research is mostly based on rarely or never used primary sources both in the United States and China, mainly in archives including the U.S.
