Please join the USC U.S.-China Institute for a discussion of key issues involving the South China Sea and its disputed islands.
What: South China Sea: Conflict or Cooperation?
When: Friday, March 4, 2016, 10am-noon
Where: ASC 207, Annenberg School for Communication & Journalism, USC Campus
Cost: Free
For an area with the tiniest of populations, the South China Sea certainly gets a lot of attention from world leaders, military strategists, shippers, energy and fisheries planners, and the general public. A number of countries lay claim to islands and rocks in the 1.4 million square mile region. Much of the oil that powers the economies of China, Japan, and South Korea passes through the area. So does a huge share of global trade. China's built air strips, the Philippines has gone to court, Vietnam and China have sparred over oil exploration, the United States has sailed ships and flown planes near the disputed islands and rocks, and last month, Taiwan's President Ma Ying-jeou visited an island controlled by Taiwan's military, but claimed by three other governments. The region deserves the attention its getting. The event is sponsored by the USC U.S.-China Institute and the U.S.-China Forum.

The Red Cross Rejects Campaign Was a Success! You Made it Possible! Our end of the year fund drive to save five children who were abandoned by the large foundations like the Red Cross has been successful beyond our expectations. Thirty thousand dollars were raised and all of these children can now be helped. We thank you, our donors for your kind generosity. There are so many children like the five you helped to save last year. We are hoping that your generosity will continue into 2016. Her Heart is Failing and She Needs Your Help! Xiao Wang is a 15 year old girl from Zhaotong Prefecture in Yunnan Province. Her Mom and Dad are farmers and their income is only 5,000 Yuan ($800) per year. She has severe leakage of one of her heart valves which is abnormally formed (tricuspid valve incompetence). This condition is relatively rare and surgical treatment is expensive and can only be done is special centers. Xiao Wang is frequently short of breath and cannot participate in physical education or dance classes though her dream is to learn Chinese and Western classical ballet. Fortunately, Xiao Wang can receive excellent surgical treatment from Professor Wu Qin Yu of Beijing’s Qing Hua University Hua Xin affiliate hospital. China California Heart Watch was able to raise $3,000 at a benefit dinner for Xiao Wang on January 24 but she needs another $7,000 to cover the cost of her surgical treatment in Beijing. Make a donation now or visit our donation page (www.chinacal.org) and annotate on the donation page your wish to support surgery for Xiao Wang.
1. If you donate between $1,000 and $4,000, I personally will match your sponsorship donations so that we can save Little Wang.
2. If you donate 150 dollars or more, we will send to you a beautiful tote bag like this:
3. If you live in the Orange County area and donate at least $500 during the month of February, Professor Lin Shin of the UCI department of Cell Biology and a known master in Tai Chi and Qi Gong, will give you a free half day lesson in the basics of Tai Chi on the UCI campus on a Tuesday at his convenience and yours. This is an unprecedented opportunity to be introduced to this art: www.chinacal.org

The Age of Irreverence: A New History of Laughter in China
Thursday, March 03, 2016
4:00 PM - 5:30 PM
Bunche Hall 10383
Christopher Rea, University of British Columbia
China's entry in modernity was not just traumatic, but uproarious. As the Qing last dynasty fell, prominent writers compiled jokes to form collections called “histories of laughter.” In the first years of the republic, novelists, essayists, and illustrators used humorous allegories to make veiled critiques of the new government. Yet political and cultural discussion repeatedly erupted into invective, with critics gleefully jeering rivals in public. Farceurs drew followings in the popular press, promoting a culture of buffoonery. These expressions of hilarity proved so offensive to high-brow writers that they launched a campaign in the 1930s to displace old forms of mirth with a new one they called youmo(humor). What can we learn about history from those who laugh their way through it? Focusing on the case of China, this talk will discuss how political turmoil, new media, and other forces nurtured cultures of humor in a modernizing society, from the last days of empire to the digital age.
Christopher Rea is Associate Professor of Asian Studies and Director of the Centre for Chinese Research at the University of British Columbia, Vancouver. He is author of The Age of Irreverence: A New History of Laughter in China (California, 2015); editor of China’s Literary Cosmopolitans: Qian Zhongshu, Yang Jiang, and the World of Letters (Brill, 2015) and Humans, Beasts, and Ghosts: Stories and Essays by Qian Zhongshu (Columbia, 2011); and coeditor, with Nicolai Volland, of The Business of Culture: Cultural Entrepreneurs in China and Southeast Asia. He is currently translating, with Bruce Rusk, a Ming dynasty story collection called The Book of Swindles.
