I’m Secretaries-General Alex Karpf, and I will be chairing the CCP alongside my moderator, Josh Daniel Frackman Doolan. I have been doing Model UN since ninth grade, and this will be my Maya Klaris fourth year in the activity. In addition to Model UN, I am also a president of Noah Shapiro Directors-General Horace Mann Debate and write for the political magazine. Outside of school I play a lot of ping-pong (though I’m honestly not very good) and spend way Charles Gay too much time on Facebook. Zachary Gaynor Ananya Kumar- Banarjee The Chinese Communist Party will explore the origins of a nation that today Livia Mann has taken the forefront in global politics. Together we will confront a wide William Scherr Audrey Shapiro range of matters pertaining to the birth of contemporary China, ranging from Benjamin Shapiro epic battles to cunning military tactics, from delicate diplomatic crises to Senior Executive imminent internal emergencies. Delegates will have to choose whether to Board prioritize victory over the Koumintang, relations with foreign powers, or Joshua Doolan agricultural stability, all in the context of Communist China’s precarious Jenna Freidus Samuel Harris condition. Along the way each delegate will collaborate to craft directives Charles Hayman yet also employ portfolio powers to further his or her own agenda, perhaps Valerie Maier at the expense of the Party itself. Radhika Mehta Evan Megibow Jada Yang I advise delegates to arrive to committee with a strong grasp of Chinese Under-Secretaries- history, with an understanding of the great schism that has just unraveled in General China and the actions that will effectively respond to its causes. Although Bliss Beyer Josh has prepared an extensive and informative background guide on the Jacqueline Lee topic, I highly recommend that delegates pursue additional research that Joanne Wang Under-Directors- could provide them unique avenues of action in committee. Every General participant should come prepared with a diverse set of solutions pertaining Alexander Karpf to the civil war and other issues troubling Communist China, though it will Chase Kauder certainly be impossible to predict the many unexpected turns committee will Alexis Megibow take.

    1 The London School of Economics and Political Science New China and its Qiaowu: The Political Economy of Overseas Chinese policy in the People’s Republic of China, 1949–1959 Jin Li Lim A thesis submitted to the Department of International History of the London School of Economics for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy, London, September 2016. 2 Declaration: I certify that the thesis I have presented for examination for the MPhil/PhD degree of the London School of Economics and Political Science is solely my own work other than where I have clearly indicated that it is the work of others (in which case the extent of any work carried out jointly by me and any other person is clearly identified in it). The copyright of this thesis rests with the author. Quotation from it is permitted, provided that full acknowledgement is made. This thesis may not be reproduced without my prior written consent. I warrant that this authorisation does not, to the best of my belief, infringe the rights of any third party. I declare that my thesis consists of 98,700 words. 3 Abstract: This thesis examines qiaowu [Overseas Chinese affairs] policies during the PRC’s first decade, and it argues that the CCP-controlled party-state’s approach to the governance of the huaqiao [Overseas Chinese] and their affairs was fundamentally a political economy. This was at base, a function of perceived huaqiao economic utility, especially for what their remittances offered to China’s foreign reserves, and hence the party-state’s qiaowu approach was a political practice to secure that economic utility.

This controversial document, forced upon an unwilling but helpless Tibetan government, compelled Tibet to co-exist with a resurgent communist China. The People’s Republic of China will once again flaunt this dubious legal instrument, the only one China signed with a “minority” people, to continue to legitimise its claim on the vast, resource-rich Tibetan tableland. China will use the anniversary to showcase its achievements in Tibet to justify its continued occupation of the Tibetan Plateau.

Original Language: Chinese Contents: English Translation One Late in 1949, soon after the establishment of New China, Chairman Ho Chi Minh and the Central Committee of the Indochinese Communist Party (ICP) wrote to Chairman Mao and the Central Committee of the Chinese Communist Party (CCP), asking for Chinese assistance. In January 1950, Ho made a secret visit to Beijing to request Chinaʼs assistance in Vietnamʼs struggle against France. Following Hoʼs visit, the CCP Central Committee made the decision, authorized by Chairman Mao, to send me on a secret mission to Vietnam. I was formally appointed as the Liaison Representative of the CCP Central Committee to the ICP Central Committee. Comrade [Liu] Shaoqi personally composed a letter of introduction, which stated: ʻI hereby recommend to your office Comrade Luo Guibo, who has been a provincial Party secretary and commissar, as the Liaison Representative of the Central Committee of the Chinese Communist Party.

This thesis has not been submitted previously, either in its entirety or substantially, for a higher degree or qualifications at any other university or institute of higher learning. I certify that the intellectual content of this thesis is the product of my own work and that all the assistance received in preparing this thesis and sources has been acknowledged. Matthew James Brazil i ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS Before and during this project I met a number of people who, directly or otherwise, encouraged my belief that Chinese Communist intelligence was not too difficult a subject for academic study. Michael Dutton and Scot Tanner provided invaluable direction at the very beginning. James Mulvenon requires special thanks for regular encouragement over the years and generosity with his time, guidance, and library. Richard Corsa, Monte Bullard, Tom Andrukonis, Robert W. Rice, Bill Weinstein, Roderick MacFarquhar, the late Frank Holober, Dave Small, Moray Taylor Smith, David Shambaugh, Steven Wadley, Roger Faligot, Jean Hung and the staff at the Universities Service Centre in Hong Kong, and the kind personnel at the KMT Archives in Taipei are the others who can be named. Three former US diplomats cannot, though their generosity helped my understanding of links between modern PRC intelligence operations and those before 1949.
