The Genie and the Lamp: Revolutionary Xiangsheng
Stubborn Weeds: Popular and Controversial Chinese Literature After the Cultural Revolution
The literature of the People's Republic of China became livelier and more varied during the "thaw" of 1979-80 than at any other time since the revolution. Perry Link, who lived in China during that period, has assembled the most representative examples, as well as those of most interest to Western readers, of "stubborn weeds"â the writing that would not die in spite of the pressures of the Cultural Revolution. The volume indicates fiction, drama,…
Rethinking China's Rise: A Liberal Critique
Viewed from the outside, intellectual life in China today can seem threadbare. On one side, a brutish government demands credence but offers little in the way of serious content; on the other, sarcasm and double entendre on the internet suggest that deeper thinking is going on somewhere but is hidden from view. Academic journals are filled with mediocre work done for promotions and CV-burnishing. So is Chinese thinking dead? No, actually. Quite a…

Hand-Copied Entertainment Fiction from the Cultural Revolution
This chapter considers only the entertainment fiction, concentrating on works from the Cultural Revolution rather than works of foreign or prerevolutionary origin. Most of the scholarship on artistic life during the Cultural Revolution emphasizes its one-dimensionality, often leaving the impression that ordinary people were exposed to nothing but the monotonous models of revolutionary art. Perry Link's study of hand-copied, underground entertainm…
Standing Up for Liberty: A Conversation With Perry Link
In this enormously rich and spirited conversation, Perry Link reminisces about his training as a student of Chinese language and literature in the midst of American involvement in the Vietnam War, his early understanding of Chinese revolution and socialism, and his encounters with such well-known Chinese intellectuals as Liu Binyan and Fang Lizhi during the late 1980s and after, as well as his involvement with the publication of the Tiananmen Pap…

China at the Tipping Point: From “Fart People” to Citizens
In recent years, Chinese netizens have shown they possess boundless creativity and ingenuity in finding ways to express themselves despite government restrictions on online speech. To Chinese Internet users, those terms often resonate deeply by expressing feelings about shared experiences that millions of people can immediately relate to. Does New Language Lead to New Thought? Will new political discourse give birth to a new political identity? A…
Mo Yan: Se Moquer Sans Faire De Vagues
L'attribution du prix Nobel de littérature à Mo Yan en 2012 a suscité de nombreuses controverses, souvent plus politiques que littéraires, sur le danger d'accorder un prix si prestigieux à un écrivain reconnu par les autorités chinoises. Car si Mo Yan, dans ses œuvres, manie le grotesque, le sarcasme et l'ironie, le résultat n'est pas une critique en profondeur mais un éclat de rire généralisé qui met sur le même plan victimes et bourreaux. Sans …
No Enemies, No Hatred: Selected Essays and Poems
When the Nobel Peace Prize was awarded on December 10, 2010, its recipient, Liu Xiaobo, was in Jinzhou Prison, serving an eleven-year sentence for what Beijing called incitement to subvert state power. In Oslo, actress Liv Ullmann read a long statement the activist had prepared for his 2009 trial. It read in part: stand by the convictions I expressed in my 'June Second Hunger Strike Declaration' twenty years ago--I have no enemies and no hatred. …
Disentangling the Climate-conflict Nexus: Empirical and Theoretical Assessment of Vulnerabilities and Pathways
Recent research has provided new insights into the relationship between climate change and violent conflict. In this review we compare the results, methodologies, and data applied in the peer-reviewed literature to recap the current state of the debate. While long-term historical studies suggest a coincidence between climate variability and armed conflict, empirical findings are less conclusive for recent periods. Disentangling the climate-confli…
