A Neglected Democratic Heritage
Under current Chinese Communist Party general secretary Xi Jinping, political reform in China is more elusive than ever. Yet there have been times—not that long ago—when China, despite censorship and oppression, was home to open political debate. An intellectual ferment marked the first half of the twentieth century, when the classically trained scholars Kang Youwei (1858–1927), Yan Fu (1854–1921), and Liang Qichao (1873–1929) looked outward to e…
To Forget or Remember? China's Struggle With Its Past
In probing a country’s future prospects, one can do worse than contemplate its past. And nowhere is history more relevant to the future than in China, a nation that has for millennia seen its desti
China's Sakharov and Havel
This essay, written in memory of the Chinese astrophysicist and dissident Fang Lizhi, reexamines the period in Fang's life when he was vice president of the University of Science and Technology of China and, because of his activities as an educational and political reformer, came to be dubbed "China's Andrei Sakharov." It also retells, from the perspective of an insider, the dramatic narrative of Fang's year with his wife, Li Shuxian, living in t…

But it has also left the People's Republic of China (PRC) in a state of …

The forces released by the Chinese dissident student movement have not been completely suppressed, despite the brutal crackdown that followed the Tiananmen Square massacre. In China a new generation is coming to power, taking over from the gerontacracy which has characterized the Chinese government for so long. Comprised of technocrats and entrepreneurs, businessmen and intellectuals, the new breed is determined to remove the lingering shadows of…

Until recently young scholars have been content to study China in a vacuum while ignoring the background and the climate in which the whole study of modern China grew up in this country. China was just another dusty attic available for scholarly rummaging. There was data for all. Few stopped to examine the people who were doing the rummaging, by whom they were being educated, and the ends to which their work was put. Even fewer cared to remind th…
