Reinga to Leina: Ghost - Dancing Leylines
In this essay I evoke ghostly remnants of my choreographic research practices[1] facilitated via a series of global inter-disciplinary collaborations in Hawaii[2] and California[3] bridging Māori cosmologies and epistemological frame works with inter-cultural collectives[4]. Reconstructing diary, email and interview material[5] offers a unique creative insight into contemporary Maori performing art practices, re-experiencing the presentness of ti…
Ko Mitimiti ahau, I Am (of) the Place, Mitimiti
Kia ora, tenei te mihi kia koutou. Warm greetings to you all. My culture shares ‘tikanga’, a way of doing, a conceptual framework based on notions of ancestral continuum and the passing down of codes, which embed land, sea, and sky within our consciousness. As the descendants of oceanic navigators, we as contemporary Maori still follow ancient practices of mapping to situate and connect place to person. In our traditional greeting, I would recite…
Manaakitanga in Motion: Indigenous Choreographies of Possibility
This collaboratively-written essay explores manaakitanga -a Maori term referencing reciprocal hospitality and connectivity-both in a dance piece/practice called Mitimiti that Jack Gray is making for the concert dance stage, and in this essay itself, with its exchanges between Gray and dance scholar Jacqueline Shea Murphy. Both the dance, and the essay, suggest that stepping forward in connection, in relational and mutually beneficial exchange, is…
Mao in Perspective
Editor's preface. It is unusual for The China Quarterly to publish anything in unfinished form, but the provenance of this piece by Jack Gray is equally unusual. In the second half of the 20th century, Jack was one of the UK's more important figures in contemporary Chinese studies, perhaps most noted for the text he produced in retirement , Rebellions and Revolutions: China from the 1800s to 2000. What follows here is an extracted version of a se…

Rebellions and Revolutions: China from the 1800s to 2000
"This is a study of China from the 1800s to the dawn of the twenty-first century. It focuses on China's problems of development - the decay and collapse of the Chinese empire, its failure to recover in the first half of the twentieth century, and its emergence in world affairs since the Communist revolution of 1949. This new edition examines China's rapid economic growth at the end of the twentieth century as well as recent developments in Chines…
The State and the Rural Economy in the People's Republic of China
Chinese rural policy, assisted by Mao Zedong's critique of Stalinism, has moved away from the policy of ‘squeeze’, from uncritical assumptions about economies of scale in farming, and from insistence on the necessity of the collectivisation of farm labour as opposed to agricultural infrastructure and agricultural planning. The emphasis is now on increasing peasant purchasing power, on family?scale farming, and on relationships of contract between…
