In this mighty history, with its great cohesion and the power of radiation, Chongqing has been not only an ancient regional military and political center, but an important commercial material distribution center for thousands years which has keep its prosperity. In the last hundred years, by the reform and opening-up policy, Chongqing has taken off from an ancient military strategic past to become the hub of central and western of China. From an ancient regional trade center, it has become the economic center of Yangtze River. From a single type of re-export centre in the nineteenth century city it has grown into western China's largest multi-functional modern industrial and commercial city. From being the eastern port city of the Sichuan province it has developed to a municipality directly under the jurisdiction of the Central Government which is based on China and facing the World. With an important moment at the turn of the century, history once again pushed to Chongqing to a new starting line. Chongqing opened up a new chapter with the construction of Three Gorges Project, the establishment of the central municipality and the western development strategy. Chongqing is famous for mountains and fog, and has the typical character of a humid subtropical monsoon climate. In November, Chongqing has pleasant weather and comfortable temperatures. You are warmly welcomed to Chongqing! 3 CONGRESS VENUE The Congress will be held in the “Empark Grand Hotel” in Jiang Bei District of Chongqing.

  • The Republic of China and U Black Cat Brigade
    21 March 2011 2012011111––––006006 Black Cat Brigade: The Republic of China and UU----22 Spyplanes. Essay by JiuJiuJiu-Jiu ---HwaHwa Lo Upshur, Eastern Michigan University (([email protected]@[email protected]).edu ).).). Nations have spied on one another since the beginning of history, only the methods have changed, in part due to advances in technology. Aerial spying began with the deployment of balloons during the Franco- Prussian War (1870–71) and had progressed to satellite surveillance a mere century later. Much is known about the role of American U-2 surveillance planes and the information they obtained about Soviet bloc countries during the 1950s. However, less is known about the U-2 flights by the air force pilots of the Republic of China (henceforth ROC or Taiwan) and the data they obtained about the People’s Republic of China (henceforth PRC or China). The top secret collaboration between the United States and the ROC remained closely guarded until around 1990, after which the nature, duration, and extent of their cooperation gradually became known. Three recent books, one in English and two in Chinese, provide ex- tensive, hitherto unavailable details about the ROC’s U-2 missions and the pilots who flew them. Lost Black Cats: 1 Story of Two Captured U-2 Pilots 2 was written by H. Mike Hua, himself a former U-2 pi- lot who completed ten reconnaissance missions over mainland China. He later rose to the rank of lieute- nant general in the ROC Air Force, earned a doctorate at Purdue University, and worked in aircraft development after retiring from active service.

  • How New and Assertive Is China's New Assertiveness?
    China’s New Assertiveness? How New and Alastair Iain Johnston Assertive Is China’s New Assertiveness? In recent years, it has become increasingly common in U.S. media, pundit, and academic circles to describe the diplomacy of the People’s Republic of China (PRC) as newly or increasingly assertive.1 Some observers have even suggested that this new as- sertiveness reºects a fundamental shift in Chinese diplomacy away from Beijing’s more status quo–oriented behavior of the previous thirty years.2 Many believe that it reºects a conscious decision by the top leadership in the wake of the 2008–09 ªnancial crisis to be much more proactive in challenging U.S. interests in East Asia and, indeed, elsewhere around the world. The new assertiveness meme has “gone viral” in the U.S. media, the blogosphere, and in scholarly work. This article argues, however, that the new assertiveness meme underesti- mates the degree of assertiveness in certain policies in the past, and overes- timates the amount of change in China’s diplomacy in 2010 and after. Much of China’s diplomacy in 2010 fell within the range in foreign policy preferences, diplomatic rhetoric, and foreign policy behavior established in the Jiang Zemin and Hu Jintao eras. Moreover, the claims about a new assertiveness typically do not provide a deªnition of assertiveness, are unclear about the causal mech- anisms behind this shift toward assertiveness, and lack comparative rigor that better contextualizes China’s diplomacy in 2010. Why should policymakers and scholars worry about a problematic charac- terization of Chinese foreign policy? Putting aside the intellectual importance of accurately measuring the dependent variable in the study of a major power’s foreign policy, there are two good reasons.

The articles were edited or shortened for use here. PREFACE In 1984, the author, with Professor George P. Chen, published the book Taiwan's Elections: Political Development and Democratiza­ tion in the Republic of China. We assessed Taiwan's political system as it related to election politics, early local elections, national supple­ mentary elections beginning in 1969, and the watershed competitive national election in 1980--which inaugurated democratic politics in Taiwan at the national level. That work also included a chapter on the 1983 national election, which proved to many observers that the 1980 election had not been just a show offered during an "election holiday" or a temporary democratic event.

  • China, Taiwan, Cross-Strait Relations and US Policy
    Soft Power in a Hard Place: China, Taiwan, Cross-Strait Relations and U.S. Policy by Jacques deLisle Jacques deLisle is the director of the Asia Program at FPRI, the Stephen A. Cozen Professor of Law and professor of political science, University of Pennsylvania, and author of ‘‘After the Gold Rush: The Beijing Olympics and China’s Evolving International Roles, Orbis, Spring 2009.’’ Abstract: Soft power, like so much else in relations between the People’s Republic of China and Taiwan, is asymmetrical and freighted with implica- tions for U.S. policy and U.S.-China relations. For China, soft power largely serves—or strives—to reduce alarm (or at least reaction) among other states concerned about China’s new-found hard power or, perhaps more realisti- cally, the hard power that China’s economic rise can underwrite. Much of the value for Beijing of soft power is—and is likely to remain for quite some time— its potential contribution to reducing the likelihood that other states will react to China’s rising hard power in ways that could threaten China’s interests. hina’s accretion and use of soft power can be a palliative, genuinely allaying other states’ worries about a ‘‘China threat.’’ Short of that, soft C power can divert other states’ foreign policymaking from assessments based solely on China’s growing capabilities into more complex ones focusing on intent as well, giving Beijing a second front or a second chance to dissuade balancing or containment-oriented responses. Or, more modestly still, China’s soft power assets and initiatives can provide arguments (or at least cover) for those in policy circles abroad who oppose stronger reactions to China’s rise, whether rooted in calculations of national or narrower parochial interest, political preference, expectations of opportunities to free ride on U.S.-provided international security public goods, or other reasons.

  • Goals and Implications
    Li, China Leadership Monitor, No. 18 Reshuffling Four Tiers of Local Leaders: Goals and Implications Cheng Li Of the multitude of tasks confronting the top Chinese leadership, controlling local governments and training the future generations of CCP elites have the most intriguing and far-reaching implications. The Chinese leadership’s recent plan for a large-scale reshuffling of four tiers of local officials combined with its ambitious mid-career training programs indicate that Hu Jintao is concerned about both the short-term need to consolidate his own power and the long-term future of CCP rule. The upcoming reshuffling will likely provide Hu and his protégés with increased control in both the national and local leaderships, thus making them more effective at carrying out their populist developmental policies. However, the ever-changing domestic and international environment will likely, in the not-too-distant future, push the Chinese political system to be open enough to allow talented young people with diversified backgrounds to become part of the ruling elite. The Chinese Communist Party (CCP) plans to reshuffle its four-tier local leadership (province, municipality, county, and town) in the next 12 months, from July 2006 to June 2007.1 All local party committees, including approximately 170,000 senior officials at these four levels, will go through a process of review, reappointment, and reelection.2 A significant number of local leaders will retire or step down to make way for newcomers. The Chinese authorities consider this upcoming reshuffling one of the three largest turnovers of local elites since China began its economic reform in 1978.

    WAR HEROES: CONSTRUCTING THE SOLDIER AND THE STATE IN MODERN CHINA, 1924-1945 DISSERTATION Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for The Degree Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Yan Xu, M.A. Graduate Program in History The Ohio State University 2012 Dissertation Committee: Professor Christopher A. Reed, Adviser Professor Ying Zhang Professor Patricia Sieber Copyright by Yan Xu 2012 Abstract The frequency of wars in modern China between 1924 and 1945 was accompanied by the phenomenon that the soldier figure played an important ideological role in state rhetoric and social discussions. Different political, social and cultural forces, such as Jiang Jieshi (1887-1975)’s Nationalist government (1927-1949), the Whampoa Military Academy, urban intellectuals, activists, professionals, writers, students, and the Chinese Communists in the revolutionary base of Yan’an constructed the soldier figure to argue for their agendas and assert their political influence. The multiple meanings assigned to the soldier figure by diverse forces as well as the intentions behind the meanings are the main theme uniting this dissertation. This theme serves as a useful window to explore the state-building processes in the GMD and CCP areas and the complex state-society relations that were engendered by these processes in modern China. By examining how different political, social and cultural forces resisted, collaborated with, complicated, questioned and confronted the heroic ideal of the soldier promoted by Jiang and the Nationalist government, this dissertation demonstrates that the cultural negotiations over how to create and support a strong army were central to the state-building processes in modern China, and a significant factor in determining different trajectories in state-society relations in the regions controlled by the GMD and the CCP.
