Huawei, Hi-Tech, and U.S.-China Ties
Date: Monday, January 14, 2019 Time: 4-5:30 PM
Location: Annenberg School for Communication & Journalism, ASC 207, USC
Cost: Free, please rsvp.
Please join Asia Society Southern California and the USC US-China Institute for a discussion with Stecklow about a case that encompasses key issues in the complex relationship between Washington and Beijing: trade, high technology and national security. The arrest of Meng, who is also the daughter of Huawei''''s founder, underscores the stakes. Huawei has risen to become the world''''s largest telecommunications-equipment maker - a key player in building digital infrastructure for the global economy. Her arrest has heightened tensions between China and both the U.S. and Canada. Ottawa says that China has since detained 13 Canadian citizens. What''''s more, the friction over Chinese high-technology sales extends beyond Huawei. Stecklow''''s reporting has also led to about $2 billion in fines levied by the U.S. against Huawei''''s fellow telecom-equipment maker ZTE.
Steve Stecklow joined Reuters in 2012 after 18 years at the Wall Street Journal, where he shared a Pulitzer Prize in 2007 for a series of stories on stock-options backdating by U.S. companies. Based in London, he has long reported on Asia, and his recent investigations include stories on how Facebook failed to combat hate speech in Myanmar, how Iran''''s Supreme Leader secretly controls a multi-billion-dollar corporate empire, and how Western and Chinese technologies are used by repressive regimes to crack down on dissidents.

Eileen Chang''''s Sea Burial And Special Collection At USC East Asian Library
Date: Thursday, January 17, 2019
Time: 4-5:30pm
Location: USC Doheny Library, Room 241, USC
Cost: Free, please rsvp.
One of the most influential modern Chinese writers and the author of Lust, Caution, Eileen Chang passed away in Los Angeles in 1995. Her works, considered to be among the best Chinese literature of the 1940s, examined the themes of marriage, family, love, and relationships in the social context of 1930s and 1940s Shanghai. After her death, Dominic Cheung, Professor Emeritus at USC, took care of her sea burial in San Pedro and set up the Eileen Chang Special Collection in the East Asian Library at USC in 1997. Cheung will discuss these experiences as a part of the lecture series titled Los Angeles and Shanghai: The USC Nexus.

Is There A Populism with Chinese Characteristics?
Date: Friday, January 18, 2019
Time: 10-11am
Location: USC Social Sciences Building, SOS B-40
Cost: Free, please rsvp
Talk of populism is everywhere these days, but the recent boom in comparative populist research has focused almost exclusively on developments in electoral democracies. This talk will explore the possibilities of bottom-up forms of populism under conditions of authoritarianism. Drawing from a nationwide survey conducted in August 2018, Eaton will make the case that a popular populism is alive and well in one-party China.
Sarah Eaton is Professor of Chinese Society and Economy at the University of Göttingen and concurrently Director of Göttingen's Centre for Modern East Asian Studies. She holds a PhD in Political Science from the University of Toronto and held previously faculty positions at the University of Oxford and the University of Waterloo.

The PRC Re-education Gulag: Repression, Assimilation and Islamophobia in the Name of Tianxia Harmony
Wednesday, January 09, 2019
4:00 PM - 5:30 PM
Bunche Hall 10383, UCLA
Talk by James A. Millward, Georgetown University

Since late 2017 the PRC has been interning up to two million Uyghurs, Kazakhs and other indigenous peoples of Xinjiang in an expanding system or prisons and prison camps, submitting those ethnic people not interned to an unprecedented surveillance regime, and persecuting non-Han peoples studying or working abroad by threatening or punishing their relatives. This talk lays out the evidence for the prison camps and other aspects of the repression, in light of repeated official PRC claims that they are "vocational training centers." It also examines the new, radically assimilationist shift in CCP minzu policy against the background of imperial pluralism of Qing and earlier China-based states and similar legal, administrative and cultural approaches to accommodating diversity in the PRC. The lecture concludes that current CCP policies, besides being illegal and morally repugnant, turn their back on pragmatic Chinese tradition to chase the chimera of a homogeneous national population, a notion rooted in 19th century European experience.

James A. Millward is Professor of History at the School of Foreign Service, Georgetown University, teaching Chinese, Central Asian and World history. He is also an affiliated professor in the Máster Oficial en Estudios de Asia Oriental at the University of Granada, Spain. His specialties include Qing empire; the silk road; Eurasian chordophones and music in history; and especially Xinjiang. He follows and comments on contemporary issues regarding the Uyghurs and PRC ethnicity policy.

His publications include The Silk Road: A Very Short Introduction (2013), Eurasian Crossroads: a history of Xinjiang (2007), New Qing Imperial History: the Making of Inner Asian Empire at Qing Chengde (2004), and Beyond the Pass: Economy, Ethnicity and Empire in Qing Central Asia (1998).
