Xi? The Knowns and Unknowns of China's Political Future DESCRIPTION:Who is Xi?A Chinese critic recently observed of the political elite\, “Those who are sharp and independent-minded will be eliminated by the system\, and the most obedient ones\, the ones without edges\, will get promoted.” \n\n\n\nXi Jinping will be promoted to the top leadership position of the Chinese Communist Party at its 18th Party Congress\, set to begin on November 8. This leadership succession\, which last took place in 2002\, puts Xi as “first among equals” in a collective leadership group comprising the Politburo and its Standing Committee–also to be unveiled at the Party Congress. \n\n\n\nXi Jinping’s recent speeches have been used by analysts to make a wide range of conflicting claims about China’s future. This lecture takes the occasion of the leadership transition to reflect on the study of Chinese politics and the sources of what has been termed “depoliticization\,” or the suppression of competition and debate among China’s political elite. It is argued that this depoliticization is a relatively recent phenomenon\, and a return to earlier party traditions of debate and deliberation is much needed to revitalize politics and public policy. This scenario is more likely than conventional claims that China is in some imagined “transition” toward democratization or other forms of regime transformation. \n\n\n\nAbout Mark FrazierMark Frazier teaches and writes about the political economy of China. In the Fall of 2012\, he joined The New School as Academic Co-director and Endowed Professor at the India China Institute and Professor at the Department of Politics. To his new role\, Frazier brings two decades of research on political economy and labor politics in China and on Chinese-Indian relations. Frazier\, who most recently was Associate Professor and Chair of the Department in International and Area Studies at the University of Oklahoma\, earned his Ph.D. in political science from the University of California\, Berkeley. He is the author of Socialist Insecurity: Pensions and the Politics of Uneven Development in China (Cornell\, 2010) and The Making of the Chinese Industrial Workplace: State\, Revolution and Labor Management (Cambridge\, 2002). His recent research examines the politics of labor and social policies in China.

As geopolitical tectonic plates continue to shift in the post-cold war international system\, and new alliances/alignments come to the fore\, Asia’s rise (especially with regard to China and India) is likely to impact the theory and practices of Arctic governance in hitherto unanticipated ways. Both China and India – appropriately called “planetary powers” by some (in view of the global ecological impact and fallout of their fast-growing economies) – look able and determined to act as mapmakers and world orderers in their own right The very fact that the material andthe symbolic rise of Asia is tempered with the uncertainties associated with the era of climate change and scarcities (goods\, resources and a clean environment) might further complicate the geopolitical discourse of Arctic “exceptionalism” and question at the same time increasingly untenable inside/outside geographies of cooperation centered on the Circumpolar Arctic.

Cases from India and China DESCRIPTION:Discussions of contemporary development policy are increasingly in registers of social\, political and ecological crisis. How are citizens using social innovation to tackle the development-related problems within their localities? This lecture juxtaposes the claims of social innovation literature with civil society response to ecosystem degradation in Udaipur\, Rajasthan\, and Baoshan\, China. It also raises questions of the value of US-centric concepts of social innovation\, the nature of professional competence needed\, and the politics of the complex negotiations through which social innovation is achieved.

They become learners and the producers of new urban knowledge that is located in their community and embedded in their aspirations\, concerns\, curiosity and experiential learning. This has lead to creating a successful model of collaboration between a world-renowned academic institution\, a small research collective and a deeply marginalized community in Mumbai. This model is scalable and replicable in any marginalized community globally.

Subaltern urbanisation refers to the growth of such settlements that are independent of the metropolis and autonomous in their interactions with other settlements\, local and global. Analyzing conventional and new data sources “against the grain”\, we claim that there are many such economically vital smaller settlements in India\, contrary to perceptions that India’s urbanisation is slow\, that its smaller settlements are stagnant and its cities are not productive. Instead of basing policy on illusions of control\, it is necessary to try and understand how agents construct this world\, if we are to comprehend the ongoing Indian transformation. \n \nEvent Resources: Partha Mukhopadhyay’s Presentation URL:https://www.indiachinainstitute.org/event/subaltern-urbanization-in-india/ CATEGORIES:Public Talks ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/png:https://www.indiachinainstitute.org/wp-content/uploads/2026/01/new-23Artboard-1.png END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;VALUE=DATE:20120807 DTEND;VALUE=DATE:20120808 DTSTAMP:20260506T065015 CREATED:20200423T172157Z LAST-MODIFIED:20260104T170317Z UID:106932-1344297600-1344383999@www.indiachinainstitute.org SUMMARY:CFP: Second Annual Interdisciplinary Emerging Scholars Symposium on India China Studies DESCRIPTION:Paper Proposals are only being accepted for Peking University.

Although most of these economic reforms needed to pursue a more balanced growth have been clearly identified (see for example the recent report China 2030 signed jointly by the World Bank and the Development Centre of the State Council)\, the political conditions for their implementation are still far from being met. Indeed\, many of these economic reforms\, if they were implemented\, would require an evolution of the political framework set by Deng Xiaoping in 1992. Specifically\, these reforms would require profound changes of state action in the economy\, particularly on issues of public sector\, fiscal policies at local government level and the sharing of wealth between capital and labor.
