  Policing port cities during the colonial era : Tianjin and Shanghai interaction between Western and Oriental police forces, 1860-1945

  Limits of the western police model in China

  In the past 20 years, the Research Center on Shanghai History (ECNU) and the Lyon Institute of East Asian Studies (IAO) have established close cooperative relations : joint projects, joint publications, joints conferences, as well as the co-training of graduate students have become significant and regular markers of increasingly close relationships.

  The post-war of Japanese intellectuals - Ebisu, Japanese Studies

  Ebisu – Études japonaises

  Suite au colloque Ombres et lumières de la pensée japonaise d’après-guerre qui s’est tenu à la Maison franco-japonaise, la rédaction d’Ebisu lance un appel à contributions pour son prochain numéro thématique qui portera sur le rôle et les engagements des intellectuels dans le Japon des années 1945-1960. Ce numéro se propose de faire le point sur la pensée de cette première génération d’intellectuels de l’après-guerre.

Comment leur pensée négocia-t-elle avec le réel ? Quels furent leurs points aveugles et comment ceux-ci ont-ils été comblés par les générations suivantes ?

  From revolution to reforms: characterizing made-in-China transitions paradigms

  The 1911 revolution was motivated by anger at corruption in the Qing government, frustration with that government's inability to restrain the interventions of foreign powers, and resentment of the majority Han Chinese toward a government dominated by an ethnic minority. One hundred years later, after decades of wars and violent political thrusts, China has achieved significant progress toward becoming a major global power. How close (or how far) is China from eventually becoming what the nineteenth century Qing dynasty reformers envisioned for her, i.e. a rich and powerful state (fuguo qiangbing)?
