The Two Sessions concluded in mid-March in Beijing again set the tone for the country's development direction for the years to come. The growth target of 6.5-7% will be the new normal with building a moderately prosperous society in all respects as China's goal. International trade and cooperation can play an even more acute role in China's focus on domestic consumption as well as its outbound investment activities.

The Female Chieftain's Tribute
Tuesday, April 12, 2016
3:00 PM - 5:00 PM
Bunche Hall 6275
Talk by Hu Siao-chen, Academia Sinica
Taiwan Studies Lecture Series
During the long history of encounters between the Han and non-Han people, the Han writers produced many texts that represent the non-Han as the other. These texts are in the genres of local gazetteers, travelogues and miscellaneous notes, and they narrate about the geographical, institutional and social traits of the non-Han regions and people. Among the profuse information they provide, the description of local produce and food often goes beyond factual record and is loaded with feeling and imagination. This essay centers around texts about the negotiation between She Xiang, a female chieftain in Guizhou, and the first emperor of the Ming dynasty, and discusses how clothing and food are represented as symbolic tokens of political exchanges between the leaders of the court and the borderland. As buckwheat, the main food crop of the region, is used to make the “golden crispy cake” that bears the pattern of nine dragons and presented to the emperor himself as the female chieftain’s tribute, the story of She Xiang is transformed from strategic negotiation between the central authority and borderland power to a side dish of exotic flavor in the feast of "multi-ethnic unified empire."
How to become a Daoist: Transmission and Ordination in Early Medieval Daoism
Thursday, April 14, 2016
4:00 PM - 5:30 PM
Bunche Hall 10383
Talk by Terry Kleeman, University of Colorado
Like most new religions, the Way of the Celestial Master, founded in the mid-second century of our era, was an evangelical faith that sought to save the world by converting its profane inhabitants to the true way. For this reason, there is a strong focus in early Daoist documents on conversion of individuals and their incorporation into the membership as citizens of the Dao (Daomin 道民). In fact, the movement experienced explosive growth over the next two hundred fifty years, as it came to cover all of Sichuan, then all of North China, and finally, after 317, all of China. This talk will examine how individuals and families were recruited for membership in the Celestial Master church, how they were evaluated for promotion and progressed through the ranks, the rituals used to initiate and ordain them at various levels, and the codes of conduct that they accepted along with their ranks and statuses. In this way, we can get some sense of what it meant to turn away from popular religious practice and join into this new fellowship of the Heavenly People (tianren 天人), to live under different rules worshipping strange new gods, and to share in the hope that they would be chosen as Seed People who would repopulate the world of Great Peace that was sure to arise from the ashes of the destruction, warfare, plague, and calamity that surrounded them. |

Tuesday, May 3, 6:30PM-8:15PM
40 Rector Street, 2nd Floor, New York, NY 10006
Event Fee: Members - Free, Non-Members - $5
Beginning in 1966, China's Great Proletariat Cultural Revolution was a mass movement that shook the foundations of Modern China to its core. The movement's ubiquitous presence deeply disrupted all aspects of Chinese society, and has had a lasting impact on Chinese culture that is still present today.
On May 3, 2016, join China Institute in collaboration with Asia Art Archive for a screening of China - The Red Sons (1968, 47 mins), shot by Australian filmmaker Roger Whittaker during a trip to China in 1968 organized by the Australian Union of University Students. One of the few documentaries made in China during the Cultural Revolution, the film offers a unique record of people's daily lives in this period, featuring interviews with students, pupils, Red Guards and the late Anna Louise Strong. Following the screening, renowned curator, Zheng Shengtian, and Jane DeBevoise, Chair of the Board of Directors, Asia Art Archive will host a discussion. For questions or to register by phone, please contact 212-744-8181 ext. 138 or by email at anicholson@chinainstitute.org |

评论：刘旷：为什么我认为中国互联网能超越美国？ |
|
|
不想说多了，只有一句话，谷歌服务在中华人民共和国境内（不含台港澳地区）是无法使用的，小米、华为之类，只是帮谷歌或ARM公司做下游产品而已，简单说，小米、华为手机连电阻电容都是日本产的，更别说操作系统、CPU或摄像头了。
硬件还有门槛，软件就没什么门槛了吧，微软谷歌工程师用的编程电脑，不比我们的先进吧，泱泱15亿人口的大国，用010101敲个像样的程序都不会，还好意思说什么互联网呢。
要是美国商务部宣布不再供应美国产品给小米或华为了，小米一天内倒闭，华为三天关门。中兴通讯的例子看到了么？ |
