“The Central Kingdom” is pregnant of political implications as well as of geographical and cultural significance. It was believed
that whoever controlled Zhongguo (the Central Kingdom or China) would be the legitimate ruler over Tianxia (the realm under heaven or all under heaven). It was the contention for “the Central Kingdom” among the varieties of dynasties,
notably those established by the Han-Chinese and the various ethnic groups in the northern borderland, that lead to the alternation
of disintegration and unification of the territory. It was not until the Qing Dynasty that the unified “Central Kingdom” composed
of a variety of ethnic groups turned into the ideal “realm under heaven” with “the Central Kingdom” at its core, which naturally
put an end to the formation of territory in ancient China.

By the early 18th Century, the “Rites Controversy” among the missionaries themselves has evolved into a culture conflict between the Qing Empire
and Europe. To make the European missionaries in China follow the rites of Matteo Ricci, Emperor Kangxi had French Jesuit
missionaries Joachim Bouvet and Jean Francoise Foucquet study the Book of Changes in his royal palace and had further conversions with the European missionaries based on their researches. Not only did this
cultural conversation reveal the Figurist’s tendencies, as represented by Bouvet, and the interior conflict among the missionaries
themselves after the “Rites controversy,” but also showed Kangxi’s policies towards the missionaries, as well as his attitude
towards Western culture and religion.

Around the founding of the People’s Republic of China, the income distribution system of party and government officials has
experienced a great reform from the supply system featured by equalitarianism to the duty-graded salary system with strict
ranks and wide gaps. This change runs against the convention of the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) and proposition of Marx
Karl. Chairman Mao Zedong was never satisfied with this distribution system marked by strict ranks and tried to amend it.
It amounted to the same at the end as his failure to prevent the generation of this system, even though it experienced “the
Cultural Revolution.”

The Western terms “feudal” and “feudalism” have been widely and improperly translated as “fengjian” in contemporary China. The early Western Sinologists and Chinese scholars, including Yan Fu, did not originally make such
a translation. Yan initially transliterated the term “feudalism” as fute zhi in his early translations. It was not until the 20th century, when Western classical evolutionism found its way into China,
that “feudalism” was reduced to an abstract concept, and the Western European model was generalized as a framework for understanding
development in China and the whole world. Only then did Yan Fu first equate “feudalism” with “fengjian,” and China was believed to have experienced a “feudal society” in the same sense as Europe. From the perspective of intellectual
history, using evidential and theoretical analyses, this article attempts to show that feudalism was a historical product
in the development of Western Europe and existed only in Europe, “fengjian” is a system appropriate only in discussions of pre-Qin China, and China from the Qin to the Qing experienced instead a system
of imperial autocracy. The medieval periods in the West and in China evidence widely divergent social forms and hence should
not be confused with the same label.

ABSTRACTThis study examines the relationship between the Guomindang (GMD) and the courts by focusing on the 1929 conflicts between the Suzhou Baptist schools and the local GMD party apparatus. The GMD regime supported the principle of rule by the party. At the local level, the GMD’s rise was often stymied by the independent judiciary whose judgments were based on the principle of the rule of law. The local party might not have been able to control the local court in the early years of the GMD regime, but it did steadily alter state-society relationships, as it could benefit from the local court’s commitment to the rule of law. For instance, the district court in Suzhou actively defended the principle of rule by the party in conflicts between Baptist schools and the local party because the GMD had made that principle the law of the land. 相似文献

By investigating the Tang-Song examples of widows remaining chastity or inviting a jiejiaofu (second husband) into the deceased husbands’ families, this article analyzes widows’ lives and their right to inherit their
deceased husbands’ family properties. The conclusion is that widows had only “rights of management,” but not the “possessive
right,” over their deceased husbands’ properties. Moreover, the qualities of widows’ lives in their in-law’s families depended
on their relationships with the deceased husbands’ brothers. When being treated unfairly, widows often resorted to “the power
of the maternal uncle” in order to defend their benefits.

The cluster of technical terms that the Jesuit Matteo Ricci and his Chinese partners Xu Guangqi and Li Zhizao cotranslated
and introduced into Chinese in the late Ming dynasty was of significance for Chinas cultural transformation. For instance,
“brain” replaced “heart” as a specific term referring to the organ of consciousness and memory. The classical Chinese interrogative
numeral jihe was used to represent the core mathematical term “geometry”. Diqiu, meaning “the globe of the earth” in English, was minted to amend the traditional hemispherical dome cosmology. The identification
of “Cathay” with China clarified the ambiguity in the Western geographical concept of the Far East, which had existed since
the Middle Ages.

This paper uses the 1987 Australian Election Study to examine the attitudinal, social and political characteristics of the political factions and tendencies which exist within the Labor, Liberal, National and Australian Democrat parties. We show that attitudinal groups are identifiable in all four parties, the greatest diversity existing within the Democrats and the least diversity within the Nationals. Substantial differences exist between groups within each party in social background and political characteristics. A multivariate analysis of factional and tendency electoral support shows that incumbency and control of nominations is important among ALP factions, while electorate involvement and party membership are important within Liberal and National tendencies. 相似文献

The construction of “citizen-state” relations in the intellectual world of modern China and the establishment of individual
citizenship in political discourse have opened up a political and discourse sphere for modern women to strive for new identities,
wherein some intellectually advanced women have managed to establish their individual identity as “female citizen” by carrying
the debate on the relationship between women and the state with regard to their rights and responsibilities, and on the relationship
between gender role and citizenship. Though the idea of “female citizen” was not provided with a political theory of practical
significance, the subject identity of women, however, was repeatedly spoken about and strengthened in brand-new literary practices,
resulting in a dynamic discourse of “female citizen”; in the meantime, disagreements concerning the concepts of “female rights,”
“civil rights,” and “natural rights” have all helped create significant tension inside the related discourse sphere.

This article explores the relationship between Christianity and Chinese society in the second half of the nineteenth century
by re-examining the primary sources of anti-Christian movements. The first part shows how Christian churches broke the dominance
of the Qing government over local society. Conflicts between Christianity and Chinese religion were often transformed into
political confrontations between churches and the Qing bureaucracy. The second part analyzes how Confucianism, Buddhism, and
Daoism interpreted Christianity, with an emphasis on how to understand the perception of Christianity in Chinese society.
Exploring broader societal perceptions of Christianity—and not just those expressed in the writings of the Confucian literati—allows
for a more nuanced understanding of Chinese interpretations of Christianity. The third part studies the relationship between
churches and Chinese religious sects. On the one hand, in the language of anti-Christian movements such as those of the Zaili
and Cai sects, Christianity was the hateful “Other.” On the other hand, in the process of preaching Christianity, churches
themselves experienced a period of transmutation: they recruited into the church not only non-religious civilians but also
the followers of popular religions. For a long period, Christianity was called yangjiao, the “foreign religion,” making it the “Other.” Missionaries started to feel an urgency to reject their identity as the “Other”
after the harrowing experience of the Boxer Movement. 相似文献
