Henry Serruys' "The Mongols And Ming China : Customs And History": Hung-Wu And The Mongols
[ send me this paper ]
7 pages in length. Henry Serruys' account of the Hung-Wu period (1386-1398) in "The Mongols and Ming China : Customs and History" draws upon the author's literary talents, as well as the sordid historical events that revolve around China's Mongols during this period. This detailed analysis
provides the reader with a scope of knowledge both vast and explicit, with the book's aim being that of a comprehensive critical overview of how China's Mongols managed to rule for the better part of a century. Indeed, the sources upon which Serruys draw are instrumental in his ability to portray this era as one of China's most powerful. Clearly,
the method by which the author assembles the work, as well as his complementary writing style, brings forth the underlying reasons that such a forceful period existed in China's past and what its people have learned from such events, which represent the book's larger issues. No additional sources cited.

Hong Kong Migration Advisers
[ send me this paper ]
A 6 page research paper that offers a summation and analysis of an article on Hong Kong migration from 1994 and the role of migration advisers. In 1994, there were more than 100 companies in Hong Kong specializing in offering consulting services to potential migrants to other countries (Hardie, 1994). Migration in the 1980s and early 1990s was spurred as a direct consequence of fears generated by the impending retrocession of Hong Kong to China (Vickers and Kan, 2003). During this period, thousands of people, frequently professionals, migrated overseas, usually to Australia, Canada or New Zealand, in order to secure foreign nationality for themselves and their families (Vickers and Kan, 2003). By having a member of the family obtain foreign citizenship, a family was perceived as having a "bolt-hole abroad in the event of political or economic repression of the post-1997 (Chinese) regime" (Vickers and Kan, 2003, p. 179). In his detailed study, Hardie (1994) examines the role of the migrant adviser in the processes spurring the exodus from Hong Kong during this time. Bibliography lists 3 sources.

sovereignty. Bibliography lists 3 sources.

Internet Censorship In China: Past And Present
[ send me this paper ]
6 pages in length. The extent to which Internet censorship has become a requisite part of the entire World Wide Web experience is clearly indicative of the manner by which society's offensive element has found a way to reach its vulnerable audience. That pornography has been cited as the primary search objective on the Internet today speaks to the fact that children and adolescents are among the tremendous number of virtual onlookers visiting these sites every day. China is no stranger to this occurrence, inasmuch as Asian pornography is one of the worlds most popular and sought after commodities. Efforts to censor this decidedly harmful social element have been both significant and laborious; it sometimes seems as though the pornographic Web masters know all the tricks to bypass sophisticated obstacles.

report discusses international joint ventures in China and the
successes of joint business ventures between Chinese business and
foreign businesses. The ability of business investors who reside
in one country and invest in a business in another to influence
the firms in which they have an ownership stake is an issue of
long-standing concern. With the growth of large corporations and
the dispersion of their stockholders in the past several decades,
concern about the divorce of ownership from control became
important. The question of establishing wholly-owned business in
China has become an issue of concern, as well as the future of
multinational enterprises both in and with China.

Jonathan D. Spence's "The Chan's Great Continent": Edward Saidian Viewpoint?
[ send me this paper ]
5 pages in length. "It is entirely appropriate to the course of our own exploration that the first Western work devoted mainly to China should be evasive and problematic." And so sets the mood of Jonathan D. Spence's "The Chan's Great Continent, China in Western Minds," a compilation of historical works that reflect the Western – if not skewed – perspective of China's cultural, political and social existence. Composed of an Edward Saidian viewpoint, the student will want to note that Spence's book encompasses the fundamental basis upon which Said's entire argument is founded; indeed, there is no question that while delivered in an entertaining fashion, The Chan's Great Continent, China in Western Minds is rife with Saidian implications of Orientalism that help the reader understand the different between true Chinese history and Western exaggeration.

Judy Yung's "Unbound Voices" And Vicki L. Ruiz's "From Out Of The Shadows": Cultural Assimilation
[ send me this paper ]
9 pages in length. A collection of personal essays in Judy Yung's Unbound Voices and an account of civil rights issues in Vicki L. Ruiz's From Out of the Shadows effectively illustrates how each author is quite successful at telling tales of cultural struggle, immigration, racism & discrimination and the inherent commitment that accompanies assimilation. In portraying the characterization of these various bonds and relationships, the authors' quintessential components draw together the very basic qualities that exist within the confines of Mexican-American and Asian-American cultures. While there are, indeed, a handful of similarities with regard to the two very diverse concepts of conventional culture and mainstreaming into another, each author illustrates how there exist many more differences that serve to cause friction in direct relation to respect for one's natural heritage, with particular focus upon women. No additional sources cited.
