26期斯坦福北大分校项目 (Stanford Program in Beijing) 将于今年3月下旬在我校开课,6月中旬结业。为促进我校中国学生与斯坦福学生的了解、交流和学习,现遴选部分品学兼优的同学参加本期项目,与斯坦福大学学生同堂上课。 

 

课程一:China and Media Matters

授课教师:Jaime A. FlorCruz

上课时间:14:30 – 17:30(周三)

课程简介:

China and Media Matters Wednesday, 2:30 – 5:30 p.m.

Course Description:  This course offers a general overview of journalism and communications to be presented by a veteran China watcher and foreign correspondent who will share first-hand experiences and unique perspectives. The class will analyze distinctive features and impact of various media: print, TV, radio, online media, social media, blogs, and podcasting. It will look into the role of the media and the impact of technological innovation in the way news is presented and consumed, while seeking to find out how all these are different or similar in China compared to other countries. The class will also look at how China is perceived in and outside China through the prism of the media. The course will take 10 weeks, 3 class hours weekly, and will include 4 hours of a field trip. At the end of the course, students are expected to submit a multi-media research project in which they will present their positions on one of the main themes covered during the course.

Instructor Bio: Jaime A. FlorCruz is a veteran China-watcher and foreign correspondent in China.He was CNN’s former Beijing Bureau Chief and correspondent, responsible for strategic planning of the network’s news coverage of China (2001-2014). He served as TIME Magazine’s Beijing Bureau Chief and correspondent (1982-2000). He is considered the dean of the foreign press corps in Beijing, having been the longest-serving foreign correspondent in China until his retirement in 2015. 

 

课程二:China’s Economic Development

授课教师:Scott Rozelle

上课时间:14:3017:30(周四)

课程简介:

China’s Economic Development (Thursday, 2:30 – 5:30 p.m.) 

Course Description: This course is a survey course of economic development in China with emphasis on understanding the process of economic reform, transition and development during the past 20 years. China now has one of the fastest growing economies in the world, and China and the Chinese economy now receive a great deal of attention in the mass media. One goal of the course is to help students develop an informed perspective on the different historical stages, economic and political rationale, and effectiveness of the economic policies and institutional changes that have shaped China's economic emergence. In this sense, the course is very much a selected topics course with a broad range of topics covered. But a second, and in my view more important goal, is to study the Chinese development experience in order to think critically about the process of economic and social change. China's experiment with socialism and its efforts to reform into a more market­ oriented system make it a particularly compelling case study for understanding how institutions and institutional change affect economic and social development. The case of Imperial China, the Nationalist Experience and lessons from Taiwan provide an even greater comparative perspective. This perspective, newly resurgent in economics, will provide many of the thematic links connecting the different sections of the course. Readings for the course are written by economists, political scientists and sociologists. While recognizing the importance of an interdisciplinary perspective, my approach will emphasize the application of economic theories of incentives, institutions, markets, and economic development. I will make an intentional effort to focus lectures and sections around interesting, informative and sometimes controversial topics to stimulate thought and motivate discussion. I will allow PKU students (a number equal to or less than the number of Stanford students) to take the class. Teams of four Stanford and PKU students will do special projects outside of class and presentations to class. We will take a trip with the students to observe Chinese society outside of the main cities to rural and suburban areas. 

Instructor Bio: Scott Rozelle, Stanford faculty in residence, is the Helen F. Farnsworth Senior Fellow and the co-director of the Rural Education Action Program in the Freeman Spogli Institute for International Studies at Stanford University. His research focuses almost exclusively on China and is concerned with: agricultural policy, including the supply, demand, and trade in agricultural projects; the emergence and evolution of markets and other economic institutions in the transition process and their implications for equity and efficiency; and the economics of poverty and inequality, with an emphasis on rural education, health and nutrition. Rozelle's papers have been published in top academic journals, including Science, Nature, American Economic Review, and the Journal of Economic Literature. He is fluent in Chinese and has established a research program in which he has close working ties with several Chinese collaborators and policymakers. In recognition of his outstanding achievements, Rozelle has received numerous honors and awards, including the Friendship Award in 2008, the highest award given to a non-Chinese by the Premier; and the National Science and Technology Collaboration Award in 2009 for scientific achievement in collaborative research. 

 

课程三:China in the World Economy: Han Dynasty to the Present

授课教师:Frank Hawke

上课时间:9:00 – 12:00(周二)

课程简介:

China in the World Economy: Han Dynasty to the Present (Tuesday, 9:00 – 12:00 a.m.) 

Course Description: In order to understand China in the world economy, it is necessary to take an “in-out; then-now” approach. In other words, to understand how and why China was interacting with the world economy at any given time, it is important to know what was going on inside of China at that time.  Similarly, in order to have a full appreciation for how and why China interacts with the world economy today, it is necessary to understand how it has done so in the past. 

Instructor Bio: Frank Hawke is the Director of the China Program for the Stanford University Graduate School of Business. He has been Regional Leader, East/Southeast Asia and the Pacific, The International Potato Center (CIP), responsible for managing the Asia regional operations for CIP, an international R&D NGO that focuses on food security and poverty reduction. Previously, he was the Chairman, Greater China of Kroll Associates, as well as an independent consultant assisting companies with business strategies in China. In the early 1980s, Professor Hawke assisted numerous firms in closing landmark deals in China, including the Great Wall Hotel—China’s first joint venture—and the Beijing Jeep Corporation. He worked for Citibank from 1988 to 1994, managing businesses in the PRC and Taiwan, and he headed a team that re-established Citibank in Vietnam. From 1994–1997, Professor Hawke was Head of Investment Banking for Salomon Brothers China. Professor Hawke is an independent director of a large state-owned financial services firm and chairs the Human Resources sub-committee of the board. Professor Hawke was in the group of the very first American exchange students to study in China, at Peking University in 1979. 

 

课程四:Globalization and the Chinese City

授课教师:Mingzheng Shi

上课时间:9:0012:00(周四)

课程简介:

Globalization and the Chinese City (Thursday, 9:00 – 12:00 a.m.) 

Course Description: This course examines the dynamics of China’s urban transformation and contemporary city life in the context of globalization. Applying interdisciplinary and comparative perspectives and exploring a set of carefully selected themes related to the distinctive characteristics of China’s urban development, the course enables students to gain critical knowledge and understanding of how Chinese urban space is transformed by the forces of globalization, urbanization, marketization, and political decentralization, and what socio-spatial implications are made in a differentiated way upon urban residents and the migrant population.  Throughout the course, we ask whether the concepts and theories born out of the post-industrial Western urban experiences can be applicable to the understanding of urban China. We also ask what are the opportunities and challenges that Chinese cities face, given its current urban development strategies and trajectories. Students will benefit from the locational advantage of the course taking place in Beijing to participate in a number of field trips and site visits.  

Instructor Bio: Mingzheng Shi received his Ph.D. in modern Chinese history from Columbia University.  He is currently the Director of Stanford University’s Bing Overseas Studies Program in Beijing.  Since 1992 he has taught on modern Chinese history and the city and the environment in China at New York University in Shanghai, CIEE Shanghai Study Canter, the University of Hawaii at Manoa, and the University of Houston. He has pursued Post-doctoral Research in Chinese urban history at the University of California, Berkeley. Current research areas focus on the dynamics of culture in the making of urban China.  He is completing two research projects: “From central axis to riverfront Bund: comparing Beijing and Shanghai’s urban morphology through history” and “the changing dynamics of de(re)centralization in China: urban land policy and the transformation of the built environment”. 

 

课程五:China’s Foreign Policy

授课教师:Zha Daojiong

上课时间:9:0012:00(周一)

课程简介:

China’s Foreign Policy (Monday, 9:00 – 12:00 a.m.) 

Course Description: This course invites students to approach the study of Chinese foreign relations through examining interactions between China and the rest of the world in a selected number of “non-traditional security” issue areas. The term “non-traditional” is used here to draw attention to those challenges that affect the whole world, China included. The course has three main purposes: (1) to familiarize students with key debates in the Chinese security studies field, paying particular attention to considerations of those issues that warrant concern and contribution through means other than application of military power; (2) to help students go through descriptions and analyses of the trajectory of contemporary Chinese interactions with international and multi-national actors in addressing those challenges; (3) to help students critically analyze the complexity and factors in considerations of future paths of interactions with Chinese actors in managing the transnational issues covered in the course and beyond.  

Instructor Bio: Zha Daojiong is a Professor of International Political Economy at the School of International Studies, Peking University, and an expert in Chinese energy policies and food and water security in Asia. Dr. Zha is also active in consulting with Chinese government agencies, having been invited to join the board of counselors of the Chinese Association for International Understanding (under the administration of Department of International Affairs, the Chinese Communist Party), the China People’s Institute of Foreign Affairs (under the administration of Ministry of Foreign Affairs), and the Chinese People’s Association for Friendship with Foreign Countries (under the administration of Ministry of Foreign Affairs). He is co-author of Building a Neighborly Community: Post-Cold War China, Japan, and Southeast Asia and author of The Political Economy of China’s Oil Security. He is also the editor of Chinese Scholars View the World: Non-traditional Security

 

课程六:Communication, Culture, Society: The Chinese Way

授课教师:Gong Wenxiang

上课时间:9:0012:00(周三)

课程简介:

Communication, Culture, Society: The Chinese Way (Wednesday, 9:00 – 12:00 a.m.) 

Course Description: This course is an advanced introduction to Modern China by a scholar of communication, culture and the media. Our purpose will be to discover how heavily our habits are influenced by the culture that has shaped us as members of Chinese society, and how our communication acts, both interpersonal and through old and new media, help us to maintain or transform the society, as well as the system, in which we live. In the lectures we will use concrete examples, such as daily events, rather than abstract theoretical propositions to illustrate our arguments and our thoughts on how people communicate, on what they try to achieve through their communications, and above all, on what the socio-political and cultural consequences would be. However, this is not meant to be a course devoted exclusively to China, and our classroom discussions will hopefully range much wider and take into account more comprehensive implications. 

Instructor Bio: Gong Wenxiang holds a degree in English Literature from Peking University. He has been a professor at that University since 1994, where he has, amongst others, chaired the Department of International and Cross-Cultural Communication and the School for International Relations. Currently, he is Director of the Institute for Culture and Communication, and Executive Dean of the School of Journalism and Communication. He has also been Vice Chair of the Communication Association of China.
