Zusammenfassung Die Volksrepublik China nimmt auf politischer Ebene und vor allem in volks- wirtschaftlicher Hinsicht zunehmend eine bestimmende Rolle in der internati- onalen Völkergemeinschaft ein. Sie hat sich vor allem durch ihre wirtschaftli- che Potenz zu einem starken Gegenpol zu den USA entwickelt. Der Weg dorthin war über die vergangenen Jahrzehnte geprägt von einem dynami- schen Spannungsfeld zwischen politischer und wirtschaftlicher Öffnung auf der einen Seite und teilweiser Abschottung auf der anderen Seite. Dieser politi- sche Paradigmenwechsel lässt sich unter anderem auch in einer staatlich or- ganisierten politischen Bildung identifizieren. Vor allem die Schulbücher für das Fach Politik eignen sich zur Analyse eines staatlich propagierten Selbst- und Weltbildes und seines Wandels. Das Ziel der Doktorarbeit ist es, aufzuzeigen, inwieweit sich die VR China nach der Reform- und Öffnungspolitik in das politische und wirtschaftliche Ge- flecht der Welt integrieren will. Besteht die Möglichkeit, diesen Prozess wieder umzukehren und zu versuchen, sich erneut in einem Vakuum zu verschließen? Dafür wird ein Korpus von Schulbüchern für das Unterrichtsfach tik“ (zheng zhi) unter der Fragestellung analysiert, wie sich Änderungen der Weltanschauungen in vier exemplarischen Schulbuchtexten niedergeschlagen haben. Die Schulbuchanalyse wird mittels eines deskriptiv-hermeneutischen Verfahrens durchgeführt, bei dem der Frage der Übersetzung besonderes Gewicht beigemessen wird. Zu den Ergebnissen der Arbeit zählt, dass die Schulbuchautoren zunehmend daran orientiert sind, den Jugendlichen nicht nur eine vollkommene Moral zu vermitteln, sondern die Fähigkeit zur Selbstkritik und Selbstreflexion ergänzt werden muss, um in einer internationalen Gemeinschaft handlungsfähig zu bleiben. Abstract The role of The People’s Republic of China (PRC) within the international community has become much more important and dominant due to an in- crease in political and economic strength. Especially based on its economic potential, China has recently emerged into a serious opponent of the United States of America on the international level. Its rise in the past few decades from a developing country to the emerging powerhouse of today has been characterized and shaped by a dynamic tension between political and eco- nomic liberalisation on the one hand side and partial isolation on the other. The political shifts in paradigms can therefore be retraced in the state-funded po- litical education of the time. Schoolbooks for political education in particular qualify perfectly for an analysis of Chinese self-perception and the perception of the rest of the world, propagandized by the Chinese government. The overall goal of this doctoral thesis is to demonstrate and to provide an answer to the question, to what extend the PRC is willing to actively participate in the global political and economic system after the Chinese economic re- forms under Deng Xiaoping. Moreover, the thesis shall examine the possibility of reversing this process back to an isolationist approach in terms of com- partmentalization of the Chinese market and global political influence. In order to answer these questions, a selection of four exemplary schoolbooks be- longing to the subject of political education are analyzed concerning contextual changes in the ideological view on the rest of the world. The analysis is con- ducted with the help of a descriptive-hermeneutic methodology with special focus on aspects of translation in international textbook research. The findings of this analysis comprise an increasing motivation of the school- book authors not only towards conveying a flawless understanding of morale to the students but also fostering the ability of self-criticism and self-reflexion. These abilities are considered imperative for the integration and participation in the international community.

    Die Verheißung unbeschadeten Fortschritts wird in der Ideologie der Kommu- UNIVERSITY PRESS nistischen Partei Chinas (KPCh) durchgängig aufrechterhalten. Ideologeme bringen die Überzeugung der KPCh zum Ausdruck, dass Entwicklung und Fortschritt unter ihrer Lenkung plan- und durchführbar sind, Entwicklungsziele somit erreichbar werden und zukünftiger Fortschritt generiert werden kann. Ideologeme werden als Legitimationsinstrumente eingesetzt, die sowohl eine konkrete Handlung oder Aufforderung beinhalten, wie Ziele erreicht werden können, als auch auf der Überzeugung basieren, dass der Entwicklungsweg der VR China sowie der angestrebte Fortschritt richtig sind. Sie wirken sinn- stiftend in den jeweiligen Kontext hinein und ermöglichen, dass auch über die Äußerungen der Partei hinaus deren ideologische Inhalte Kontinuität behalten. Herausforderungen wie die Realisierung planungsintensiver Großprojekte mit weitreichenden wirtschaftlichen, ökologischen und sozialen Auswirkungen, z.B. der Bau von Atomkraftwerken oder des Drei-Schluchten-Staudamms, und das Erfordernis einer Auseinandersetzung mit der Nuklearkatastrophe von Fukushima und Naturkatastrophen, wie dem Erdbeben von Wenchuan, bieten Anlass für ein Hinterfragen des von der KPCh propagierten Fortschrittsdenkens. In der vorliegenden Arbeit werden Fortschritts- und Entwicklungsideologeme in der KPCh seit dem Jahr 1949 sowie ihr Aufscheinen in den Fallbeispielen, Diskussion der Atomenergie in der VR China, des Wenchuan-Erdbebens und FAU Studien aus der Philosophischen Fakultät 12 des Drei-Schluchten-Staudamm-Projektes, untersucht. Hierbei wird besonders der Diskurs kritischer Stimmen beleuchtet.

  • The First “Non-Government” Visiting Scholars Delegate in United States
    English translation of Chinese article published in Science & Culture Review (Beijing), Vol. 7, No. 2 (2010) pp. 84-94 ______________________________________________________________________________________________ The First “Non-Government” Visiting-Scholar Delegation in the United States of America from People’s Republic of China, 1979-1981 Lui Lam Department of Physics, San Jose State University, San Jose, CA 95192-0106, USA In February, 1979, a delegation of eight scientists from the Institute of Physics, Chinese Academy of Sciences, arrived in Evanston, and became the first group of “non-government” visiting scholars ever set foot in the USA since 1949. This group consists of Qian Yongjia (钱永嘉), LI Tiecheng (李铁成), ZHENG Jiaqi (郑家祺), SHEN Juelian (沈觉涟), WANG Dingsheng (王鼎盛), CHENG Bingying (程丙英), GU Shijie (顾世杰) and LIN Lei (林磊, Lui LAM). Lin stayed for three months while the rest of the group stayed for two years. The work by Lin at Northwestern University was later published in Physical Review Letters, the most prestige physics journal in the world, and became the first paper ever published in this journal by an author from China. Here, the background of the domestic situation in China and the international relationship between China and USA leading to the visit are summarized. The formation of this delegation of visiting scholars is described, followed by the 1979 visit itself. Lastly, the influence of the visit on the careers of the delegates afterwards and on the Chinese reform-opening up movement in general is given. Key words: Institute of Physics, Reform-Opening Up Movement, visiting scholars in USA, Baodiao Movement, Haigui, Physical Review Letters I.

The training and effective deployment of high caliber human resources is considered to be essential to the process of economic development. A pool of qualified individuals is needed to staff administrative offices, to provide advice to government officials, to educate the next generation, and to support industrial and agricultural development through efficient management and advances in science and technology. Harbison and Myers, in their seminal study of manpower and education in developing countries, refer to high quality manpower as a strategic resource. 2 They note, however, that most LDCs face severe human resource problems that seriously constrain their prospects for rapid development.
