I explored the gendered implications of economic reforms by collecting the life histories of older women workers who had been made redundant during the economic restructuring. I examined their experiences in the danwei (work unit) during the pre-reform period in China, and the role the danwei played as arbiter in the career and the personal lives of its employees. I argued that the highly interventionist role of the work unit continued the patriarchal role of pre-socialist institutions in shaping and constraining the life opportunities of women. Indeed, the study has shown that the women workers from the Cultural Revolution Generation had borne the brunt of sufferings accompanying China’s socio-economic development.enRoutledge978041539211257205050Gender and Work in Urban China: Women Workers of the Unlucky GenerationLiu, Jieyu2007-02-01BookNAhttp://doi.org/10.4324/9780203964934

Accelerated by economic reforms, a large scale migration of younger workers from rural to urban China has taken place since the 1990s. This has separated many adult children from their ageing parents and imposed significant challenges on traditional patterns of familial support for rural older people. These challenges are augmented by the fact that in rural China the elderly have been deprived a state pension and other welfare provisions available to urban residents. Drawing upon qualitative data from a project on ageing in rural China, this article examines the agency of older people and their families in responding to geographical separation resulting from the migration of the economically active to the cities. Through 32 life history interviews with multiple generations of nine households in one rural village, this article sheds light on the resilience and flexibility of rural households which have experienced migration and highlights the webs of interdependence that feature in the daily strategies of householding. It shows how members of the household across different geographical locations worked together to build and maintain the collective welfare of the family. In particular, this article argues that it would be over simplistic to suggest that migration is always detrimental to the older generation who stay behind. Contrary to assumptions in some migration studies and ageing literature in China, it shows that it is the breakdown of the webs of interdependence and reciprocity rather than the event of migration that will have inevitable negative effects upon old age care for the seniors in the household. Further, while highlighting the significance of householding, this article reveals the internal dynamics within a household. It identifies the role of gender in daily householding and suggests that the caring, supportive and kin-keeping roles performed mainly by women played a critical role in ensuring social and physical reproduction across generations. The article finds that while daughters took over some responsibilities which were traditionally expected from their brothers and sisters-in-law in old age support, the persistence of gendered practices and traditions in rural villages allowed sons more symbolic status and material benefits.enElsevier0016718557205050Ageing, migration and familial support in rural ChinaLiu, Jieyu2014-01-01Journal Article/ReviewNAhttp://doi.org/10.1016/j.geoforum.2013.04.013

This paper focuses on employment narratives recounted in life history interviews with women workers in Nanjing, China. Drawing on feminist perspectives on gender and global economic changes, it examines the micro-processes that underpinned China's economic restructuring and, through a gender-based analysis, shows how working women lost out in this process. After an overview of the institutional context in which China's economic restructuring occurred, this paper examines women's experiences in the workplace and identifies factors that contributed to their disadvantageous position in the work unit and that increased their vulnerability in the changing labor market. The evidence of gender inequality, assumptions about women's labor capacities, and the gendered consequences of economic restructuring suggest that older, less educated women workers, mostly from the Cultural Revolution generation, are unlikely to gain any benefit from whatever advantages accrue from China's economic integration into the global economy.enTaylor and Francis1354570157205050Gender dynamics and redundancy in urban ChinaLiu, Jieyu2007Journal Article/ReviewNAhttp://doi.org/10.1080/13545700701445322

Western sociologists and feminist researchers have extensively discussed qualitative research methodology. However, such methods are subject to local adjustments when they are applied in a non-western country. In this article I reflect upon my experience of collecting women's life histories in urban China, drawing attention to my position as an insider researcher, how I contacted interviewees and conducted interviews with two generations of women, and accounting for some specific features of the ways in which these Chinese women narrated their lives. I identify the ways in which specific social-cultural practices impacted upon my collection of life narratives and suggest that balancing western ideas and ethical approaches to qualitative research with local specificity is crucially important in such cross-cultural studies.enOral History Society0143095557205050Researching Chinese Women's Lives: 'Insider' Research and Life History InterviewingLiu, Jieyu2006-04-01Journal Article/ReviewNA

http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0This article addresses debates on modernisation, ageing and intergenerational support in developing/emerging economies. By examining the impact of rural to urban migration on elder support in Chinese rural families, it examines how support is being renegotiated and the implications this holds for experiences of growing older. It is positioned critically within the Chinese rural families literature, both drawing on research that reveals the continued influence of familial culture (Silverstein 2009; Lin and Yi 2011, 2013; Guo, Chi and Silverstein 2011) while arguing that this research has under-examined the strain this places on rural families, emerging conflicts and the potentially negative implications for gender and ageing. A gendered intergenerational lens is adopted to examine how generations experience and interpret these changes in the form and delivery of intergenerational support. The article focuses on the experiences and lives of the older parents, and older women in particular, to address some of the oversights in existing literature.application/pdfhttps://eprints.soas.ac.uk/22182/1/2017-09-16%2012755%20Cook.pdfenElsevier0890406557205050Can ‘distant water … quench the instant thirst’?

This article applies the concept of intimacy to examine relationships between adult children and their parents in rural China – an area which has been predominantly located in an obligatory framework. I reveal a qualitative difference in support between relationships built on intimate ties
and those bound by duty and obligation. A unilateral emphasis on obligation-based relationships can deprive both the parent and adult child generations of agency and autonomy, which can be
disempowering for both. The complex relations between intimacy and obligation are the product of local socio-economic circumstances and gender norms. Although traditional patrilineal and patrilocal culture excludes married daughters from the filial discourse surrounding their own parents, they are often considered to have the most intimate relationship with their parents. Paradoxically, the practices of intimacy between aged parents and their married daughters
strengthen the natal ties that facilitate modifications to patrilocal and patrilineal customs.application/pdfhttps://eprints.soas.ac.uk/22383/1/Liu_Intimacy%20and%20Intergenerational_AAM.pdfenSage0038038557205050Intimacy and Intergenerational Relations in Rural China2016-02-13Liu, Jieyu2017-10-01Journal Article/ReviewAMhttp://doi.org/10.1177/0038038516639505

This book offers the first ethnographic account of the experiences of highly educated young professional women, hailed by the Chinese media as ‘white-collar beauties’. It exposes the organizational mechanisms – naturalization, objectification and commodification of women – that wield gendered and sexual control in post-Mao workplaces. Whilst men benefit from symbolic and bureaucratic power, women professionals skilfully enact indirect power in a game of domination and resistance. The sources of women’s subversion are grounded in their only-child upbringing which breaks the patrilineal base of familial patriarchy fostering an unprecedented ambition in personal development, gender as inherently relational and a role-oriented system, and inner-outer cultural boundaries as signifiers of moral agency. This raises a new feminist inquiry about the agents for social change. Through a nuanced analysis grounded in the socio-cultural locality, this book throws fresh light upon the ways in which gender, sexuality and power could be theorized beyond a Euro-American reality.enPalgrave Macmillan978113750574357205050Gender, Sexuality and Power in Chinese Companies: Beauties at WorkLiu, Jieyu2016-10-16BookNAhttp://doi.org/10.1057/978-1-137-50575-0

http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0This article applies the concept of care circulation (Baldassar and Merla, Transnational families, migration and the circulation of care: understanding mobility and absence in family life, 2013) to the processes involved in the care of old people in rural China,an area which has hitherto been predominantly located in a quantitatively based intergenerational transfer framework. Drawing upon a qualitative study of rural families in the context of rural to urban migration, this article examines the multidirectional and asymmetrical exchanges of caregiving and care-receiving and seeks to provide a more nuanced understanding of the impact of migration upon ageing and familial care in rural China. First, going beyond a unidirectional flow or two-way transfer, this article reveals that care circulates between different family members, in different locations, to differing degrees, over the life course. This circulation framework enables an examination of intra-generational dynamics as well as intergenerational relations. Second, this article draws attention to the mediating factors that impact upon the ways in which adult children care for the older generation. It reveals how the employment status of migrating adult children, the temporal dimension of migration and family life cycle of migrating children as well as family relations between the older generation and adult child generation are critical factors. These factors also contribute to the quality of care provided. Finally, while confirming existing scholarship that gender is an important dimension in structuring old age support in rural China, this article calls for a more differentiated approach among generations of women and between regions, revealing the ways in which local migration history interacts with intergenerational dynamics to determine the cohort of women that endure the greatest burden of care.application/pdfhttps://eprints.soas.ac.uk/22586/1/Liu_22586.pdfenSpringer Nature2198263557205050Ageing in rural China: migration and care circulation2016-05-25Liu, Jieyu2016-06-03Journal Article/ReviewVoRhttp://doi.org/10.1186/s40711-016-0030-5

The Republic of China on Taiwan (“Taiwan”) successfully and peacefully transitioned from authoritarian, one-party rule into a constitutional democracy in the early 1990s. However, due to the island’s complex international status and fraught relationship with China, as well as a rather conservative government approach to postauthoritarian discourse on past human rights violations, there has been relatively little scholarly interest in Anglophone academia on Taiwanese transitional justice issues. This Article seeks to deepen our understanding of East Asian transitional justice by examining the influence of post-democratization local conditions on the scope and language of transitional justice legislation during two phases of Taiwan’s legislative history. The first period runs from the initial steps towards democratization in 1987 until 2016. During this time the Chinese Nationalist Party, which governed the former authoritarian regime, continued to dominate the Taiwanese government, and, in particular, retained its majority in the Legislative Yuan. The second period runs from January 2016 to the present. During this second period, the Democratic Progressive Party managed to secure both the presidency and a legislative majorityapplication/pdfhttps://eprints.soas.ac.uk/24409/6/27WashIntlLJ449.pdfenUniversity of Washington School of Law237708728500400044004401485057208050Transitional Justice Legislation in Taiwan Before and During the Tsai Administration2017-07-28Caldwell, Ernest2018-04-01Journal Article/ReviewVoR

This chapter contributes to the growing literature on international human rights and National Human Rights Institutions (NHRIs) in Taiwan. Despite decades of debate, Taiwan has never established a NHRI that complies with international human rights norms. At present, Taiwan is confronted with three viable options: the creation of an independent NHRI, the creation of a national commission under the Office of the President, or the reform of the Control Yuan into a NHRI. In this chapter, I focus on the latter option: the use of the Control Yuan as a NHRI. Specifically, I consider the historical relationship of the Control Yuan to human rights in Taiwan, and further consider the socio-legal as well as constitutional, implications of reforming this branch of government into a NHRI that complies with international human rights norms.application/pdfhttps://eprints.soas.ac.uk/24511/1/Caldwell_The%20Control%20Yuan%20and%20Human%20Rights%20in%20Taiwan.pdfenSpringer Nature978981130349440004400440148505720805080808500The Control Yuan and Human Rights in Taiwan: Towards the Development of a National Human Rights Institution?2017-09-05Caldwell, ErnestAlford, WilliamCohen, JeromeLo, Chang-fa2019-05-27Book chapterAMhttp://doi.org/10.1007/978-981-13-0350-0_10

The legal institutions of the short-lived Qin dynasty (221–207 BCE) have been vilified by history as harsh and draconian. Yet ironically, many Qin institutional features, such as written statutory law, were readily adopted by subsequent dynasties as the primary means for maintaining administrative and social control. This book utilizes both traditional texts and archeologically excavated materials to explore how these influential Qin legal institutions developed. First, it investigates the socio-political conditions which led to the production of law in written form. It then goes on to consider how the intended function of written law influenced the linguistic composition of legal statutes, as well as their physical construction. Using a function and form approach, it specifically analyses the Shuihudi legal corpus. However, unlike many previous studies of Chinese legal manuscripts, which have focused on codicological issues of transcription and translation, this book considers the linguistic aspects of these manuscripts and thus their importance for understanding the development of early Chinese legal thought. Writing Chinese Laws will be useful to students and scholars of Chinese Studies, as well as Asian law and history more generally.enRoutledge978081539692585004000440057208050Writing Chinese Laws: The Form and Function of Legal Statutes Found in the Qin Shuihudi Corpus2017-09-05Caldwell, Ernest2018-05-29BookNAhttp://doi.org/10.4324/9781351180689

Hong Kong faces the greatest challenge in its history as it returns to Chinese rule in 1997. How will it be affected by the pressures of the hand over period, and what lessons can be drawn from its relations with China and its other neighbors in recent years? Hong Kong has survived crises in the past, most notably after the Japanese takeover in 1941. In the course of the Pacific War it came under the Allied Theater for which the nationalist Chinese leader Chiang Kai shek was Supreme Commander, and in 1945 its future as a British colony was seriouly threatened. Although Hong Kong did ultimately return to British rule, an appointment was made with China for the year 1997. Hong Kong was to rejoin mother China. Despite the assurances of business leaders and politicians--from both East and West--that no radical changes are planned, doubts remain over the course that has been mapped out for Hong Kong in the next millennium. Hong Kong: An Appointment with China provides a much needed introduction for the general reader to the background and implications of this historic hand over, including the problems which have threatened the process--particularly the impact of the Tiananmen massacre and disputes over democratization.enI.B.

This is a new analysis of the key issues facing Chinese policy makers in their approach towards Taiwan. This is one of the most tense and potentially explosive relationships in world politics. This book explains succinctly the impetus, the methods and the consequences if China is to use force, a prospect that has become greater following the return of President Chen Shui-bian to power in Taiwan for a second term in 2004. If China Attacks Taiwan shows how in reality there can be no real winner in such an eventuality and how the consequences would be dire not just for Taiwan and China, but East Asia as a whole. Whether China will use force depends ultimately on how its policy making apparatus assess potential US intervention, whether its armed forces can subdue Taiwan and counter US military involvement, as well as on its assessment of the likely consequences. Given the extremely high probability of American involvement this volume appeals to not only scholars and students working on China, its foreign policy and the security and prosperity of East Asia, but also to policy makers and journalists interested in China’s rise and its defense policy, Taiwan’s security and development, regional stability as well as US policy toward China and the East Asia region generally. This book is essential for understanding China’s efforts to achieve a ‘peaceful rise’, which requires it to transform itself into a global power not by the actual use of force but by diplomacy backed up by rapidly expanding military power. This book is an excellent resource for all students and scholars of military and security studies, Asian (China/Taiwan) studies and international relationsenRoutledgehttps://www.routledge.com/If-China-Attacks-Taiwan-Military-Strategy-Politics-and-Economics/Tsang/p/book/978041540785497804153801885720If China Attacks Taiwan: Military strategy, politics and economicsTsang, Steve2006-01-13otherNAhttp://doi.org/10.4324/9780203087411

The end of the Cold War has regrettably not brought an end to all the major confrontations of the last century. One such confrontation is the stand-off across the Taiwan Strait. Despite increasingly interwoven economic links between the People's Republic of China and Taiwan in recent years, the tension between the two has not dissipated. Tsang and a group of international experts examine the subject of peace and security across the Taiwan Strait and suggest models for peace.enPalgrave Macmillanhttp://www.palgrave.com/us/book/978140393519997802305245385720Peace and Security Across the Taiwan StraitTsang, Steve2004-02otherNAhttp://doi.org/10.1057/9780230524538

Democratization in Taiwan in the last decade raises the question whether a similar process can happen in China, and dispels the old conception that democratization is incompatible with the Chinese/Confucian tradition. This volume examines the nature of and the dynamics in the democratization of a Leninist style party-state in Taiwan and its implications for China - still governed under a Leninist system. It also assesses the process of democratic consolidation and the political, military and diplomatic reality which constrains democratization in Taiwan.enPalgrave Macmillanhttp://www.palgrave.com/de/book/978134927279297813492727925720Democratization in Taiwan: Implications for ChinaTsang, SteveTien, Hung-Mao1999otherNAhttp://doi.org/10.1007/978-1-349-27279-2

After he took over as General Secretary of the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) and as Chairman of the Central Military Commission in November 2012, Xi Jinping articulated for the first time ‘the China dream’ at ‘the road to revival’ exhibition at the National Museum in Beijing. As he did so he stressed that since the start of the reform period China had finally found the way to restore the greatness of the country and it was called ‘socialism with Chinese characteristics’.1 What Xi has revealed is not a new political system or even a new term to describe it. It is a confidence in the existing political system which, despite all its faults, he now believes is sufficiently strong, effective and robust to deliver the national revival encapsulated in his ‘China dream’. The nature of the system that Xi loosely refers to, in line with the long-standing usage after the end of the Mao Zedong era, as ‘socialism with Chinese characteristics’ gets clearer if it is set within the analytical framework of consultative Leninism.enPalgrave MacmillanChina's Many Dreams: Comparative Perspectives on China's Search for National Rejuvenation5720Contextualizing the China Dream: A Reinforced Consultative Leninist Approach to GovernmentTsang, SteveKerr, David2015Book chapterNAhttp://doi.org/10.1057/9781137478979_2

The most difficult and dangerous issue that may lead to war between the People’s Republic of China (PRC) and the United States (US) is a confrontation across the Taiwan Strait. This is not changed by the fact that none of those directly involved, Taiwan, the PRC and the US wishes to see a military conflict. War or peace across the Taiwan Strait remains a serious issue as the PRC is determined to secure sovereignty over Taiwan while the latter is equally adamant that its own future must be decided not by the PRC or any other power but by the people who live in Taiwan, and the US is committed to help Taiwan defend itself and its democratic way of life. The assertion of its right, inherent in a democracy, to self-determination by Taiwan raises the prospect that its people may choose never to become part of the PRC or even of a China to be constituted by a union of the PRC and Taiwan. From Beijing’s point of view, such a development would be tantamount to Taiwan opting for independence and would be a trigger for war.enPalgrave Macmillanhttp://www.palgrave.com/us/book/978140393519997814039351995720War or Peace across the Taiwan StraitTsang, SteveTsang, Steve2004-02Book chapterNAhttp://doi.org/10.1057/9780230524538_1

The new generation of modernity theorists have forecast the democratization of gender relations within intimate relationships in late‐modern times. Chinese society has undergone rapid and dramatic changes in its unique trajectory of political, social and economic reform. Using China as an example of a region which has been largely ignored in contemporary social theory, this article enters the debate to contest the extent to which conjugal relationships are democratized in line with modernity. We further test the assertion that modern marriages are characterized by increased self‐disclosure and communication between partners. Data from a national survey on Chinese families is analysed in relation to the level of self‐disclosure between husbands and wives; gender division of housework; household decision‐making; and home ownership. We highlight the impact of gender, cohort and location (urban, rural or migrant) on experiences of modernity and draw attention to the material, social and cultural factors which continue to shape conjugal relations in contemporary Chinese society. Based on our findings, we contest the argument that disclosing intimacy between intimate partners is a defining characteristic of modern relationships, and suggest that other social factors may condition degrees of self‐disclosure in marriage. Similarly, we question the extent to which heterosexual conjugal equality is attained: the cultural practices and values of patrilineal family organization, together with material circumstances, continue to influence marital relations in China.application/pdfhttps://eprints.soas.ac.uk/25219/1/liu-etal-conjugal-intimacy-gender-modernity-contemporary-China.pdfenWiley146844465720Conjugal intimacy, gender and modernity in contemporary China2017-11-01Liu, JieyuBell, EonaZhang, Jiayu2019-01Journal Article/ReviewAMhttp://doi.org/10.1111/1468-4446.12338

This book examines the driving forces behind national-level politics, changes to the judiciary, social control, economic reform, environmental protection, urban development, the management of ethnic relations, as well as foreign and security policy orientation in China under Xi Jinping. It explains Xi's ambition, examines the limitations he has to confront, and maps the direction of reform he pursues. The book starts off by examining how the consultative Leninist nature of the political system continues to shape politics and policy in China under Xi, and what the China dream Xi advocates actually entails domestically and beyond China. It ends by highlighting the megatrends that will prevail in the decade when Xi is expected to stay in power. The book also includes contributions from five Central Party School professors whose views are taken seriously by the Chinese leadership.application/pdfhttps://eprints.soas.ac.uk/25220/1/Tsang_China%20in%20the%20Xi%20Jinping%20Era.pdfenPalgrave Macmillan97833192954805720China in the Xi Jinping EraTsang, SteveMen, Honghua2016otherVoRhttp://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-319-29549-7

http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0Using newly available archives, particularly the diary and the presidential papers of Chiang Kai-shek, this article challenges the conventional interpretations of the Xian Incident (1936), in particular the widely held belief that the kidnapping of China’s leader Chiang by two rebellious generals forced him to form a united front with the Communist Party to confront Japanese aggression, and of the outbreak of the Sino-Japanese War 7 months later. It puts forth the interpretation that full-scale war between China and Japan was started not by Japan but by Chiang after a Japanese provocation, and the united front was only formed after Chiang ordered his best army units to attack Japanese forces in Shanghai in August 1937 turning it into the largest land battle after the First World War. It must be noted, however, that Japan acted provocatively and aggressively in a local incident outside Beijing a month earlier. Chiang decided on war not because he reached an agreement with the Chinese Communists to form a united front whilst a captive in Xian but because in Xian he received a signal from Josef Stalin that the Soviet Union would support him in a war with Japan. Chiang read Stalin right and the Soviet Union became the largest supplier of weapons to China in the first 4 years of China’s 8-year war with Japan. The hitherto unknown or “secret deal” Chiang made in Xian was an implicit one with Stalin, not with the Chinese Communist Party or its man on the spot Zhou Enlai.application/pdfhttps://eprints.soas.ac.uk/25221/1/CKS%27s%20%27secret%20deal%27%20at%20Xian.pdfenPalgrave Macmillan205510455720Chiang Kai-shek’s ‘secret deal’ at Xian and the start of the Sino-Japanese War2014-11-10Tsang, Steve2015-01-20Journal Article/ReviewVoRhttp://doi.org/10.1057/palcomms.2014.3

This chapter examines the search the Communist Party leadership undertook for a non-democratic development model after 1997, and its implications. The political situation in China after Deng was laid down well in advance. Jiang's emergence out of Deng's shadow after the latter's death as the real leader of China, in a sense, marked a return of the Communist Party system to what it was supposed to be after it seized power in 1949. China's post-Deng leaders have sought a twenty-first century development model that differs from Western liberal democracy. While post-Deng governance reforms in China have certainly enhanced the capacity of the Communist Party and the Chinese government to direct economic development and maintain order and stability, it is too early to say how effective and sustainable such changes will be beyond the immediate future. Aside from post-Deng China, the Singaporean government under the People's Action Party (PAP) appears to be the only notable exception to the law of probabilities.application/pdfhttps://eprints.soas.ac.uk/25225/1/tsang-china-after-Deng-Xiaoping-2014-Routledge.pdfenRoutledge97811386580735720China after Deng Xiaoping: the search for a non-democratic development modelTsang, SteveHsin-Huang, Michael Hsiao2014Book chapterAMhttp://doi.org/10.4324/9781315852119-5

This book is about the basis and scope of impact that Taiwan – a democracy with a population of around 23 million – has on China, the most powerful remaining Leninist state which claims sovereignty over Taiwan and has a population of over 1.3 billion. It examines how Taiwan has helped China in its economic transformation, but argues that the former exercises greatest influence through its soft power. The expert and timely contributions in this book demonstrate how Taiwan exerts real influence in China through admiration of its popular culture, be it in music or literature, as well as its reach into politics and economics. As mainland Chinese visit Taiwan, they are most impressed with civility in everyday living based on a modernized version of the traditional Chinese culture. However, discussions in the book also reveal the limits of Taiwan’s impact, as the Chinese government tightly controls the narrative about Taiwan and does not tolerate any Taiwanese posing a threat to its monopoly of power.enPalgrave Macmillan97833193374945720Taiwan's Impact on China: Why Soft Power Matters More than Economic or Political InputsTsang, Steve2017otherNAhttp://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-319-33750-0
