From bandit nests to Sakura orchards
Addressing a question of how states in both Asia and the world have resolved the dilemma posed by ecologically recalcitrant “nonstate spaces,” this essay examines a refuge in Taiwan's Northern Mountains. Resistance to Japanese rule from 1896, sheltered in the Grass Mountain uplands, precipitated not just colonial pacification, but a platform of “modern” (Western-modeled, but Meiji Japanese and Qing Chinese influenced) transformation.

The Daoguang Response to the Āfāqī khoja Jahāngīr during the 1826–1828 Jahāngīr Uprising
This study examines Qing state attention to the Muslim challenger Jahāngīr, leader of Xinjiang’s 1826–1828 Jahāngīr Uprising. It considers how imperial agents, guided by Emperor Daoguang, defined and processed this contender, as well what this rendering implied for views of “Hui Frontier” Muslims. As will be seen, Jahāngīr was depicted as not just “treacherous” and duplicitous, but also an external “barbarian.” This image – crafted from military …

In early 1795, revolt flared in western Hunan as bands of Miao indigenes attacked highland Chinese settlements. Relying on guerrilla tactics and mountain terrain, these ethnic insurgents traversed the Hunan-Guizhou-Sichuan border region—the so-called "Hunan Miao frontier" (Hunan Miaojiang)—striking out in pursuit of land, wealth, and autonomy from Qing government control
