Monday, March 26, 4:30PM, Stiteler B21*, The Definite Internationalism of the Kyoto School: Changing Attitudes in the Contemporary Academy
Graham Parkes, University of Hawaii
This paper examines the kinds of nationalism espoused by several members of the Kyoto School — Nishida Kitaro-, Kuki Shu-zo-, and Nishitani Keiji — and shows them to be distinctly /internationalist/ as well as nationalist in orientation. In the case of Kuki, it criticizes the sloppiness of commentators who have branded his thinking as ultranationalist or even fascist. It concludes with suggesting the relevance of Kyoto School internationalism to the globalized world of today.
Humanities Colloquium
Tuesday, March 27, 4:30PM, Logan Hall 402*, The Politics of Imperial Collecting in the Northern Song Period
Patricia Ebrey, University of Washington
Although art and antiquity collecting has a long history in China, only a few emperors collected on a grand scale, most notably Huizong in the Song, and Qianlong in the Qing. It is common to view Qianlong's collecting as tied to his political ambitions, but Huizong's as tied to his love of art. This talk will argue that even if Huizong was not nearly as inclined toward grandiosity and self-promotion as Qianlong, his collecting should still be seen as fundamentally political. This will be shown by examining the political value of antiquities, the political uses of displaying art and antiquities to select audiences, and the political messages of the catalogues.
FEW Lecturer, cosponsored by the Penn Women's Committee

Glenda Roberts, Professor, Waseda University, Graduate School of Asia-Pacific Studies
Visiting Fellow, Yale University, Department of Anthropology
The vast majority of married Japanese women quit their jobs by the time their first baby is born. But what of those who don't? How do they and their spouses manage two careers with baby? Is there a “life” after work is over and the baby is in bed? My interview research at two large firms in Tokyo, one a multinational US firm and the other, a Japanese multinational firm, gives us some clues to the lifestyles of 30 and 40-something married, well educated, female executives with children, and to an extent, the lives of their spouses as well. Data from male execs will also be mined for answers to these questions.

* Singapore Speaker Series and Musical at Penn
My name is Haresh Tilani and on behalf of Club Singapore @ the University of Pennsylvania, I would like to cordially invite you to join us at DiaS'pura 2007, a day bringing together Singaporean students, artists and dignitaries from across the United States for 2 events addressing issues pertinent to Singaporeans in America. The day will comprise the following:
1. Singapore Speaker Series 2007
*Saturday, 24th March 2007, 2pm - 530pm*
The day will begin with the inaugural Singapore Speaker Series, featuring notable Singaporeans such as Singapore's Ambassador to the United States, Professor Chan Heng Chee, political activist Francis Seow, renowned filmmakers Colin Goh, Djinn, Woo Yen Yen and Li-Anne Huang, and photographers Yian Huang and Jing.
How has social expression in Singapore changed with the advent of New Media? Why is it that an increasing number of young Singaporean professionals have been willing to pursue alternative careers in the arts? What is Singapore's role within the global economy, and what does this mean for the Singaporean Diaspora? The Speaker Series will seek to address these questions and contemporary issues to Singapore's political, business and cultural scenes.
2. Club Singapore Musical 2007
*Saturday, 24th March 2007, 730pm - 10pm*
In the evening, Club Singapore will proudly host its first-ever original Singaporean musical production written and directed by Penn's very own dynamic duo - the Yap brothers, Joshua and Caleb. Featuring a full cast and musical ensemble of Penn Singaporeans as well as a multitude of guest stars from Penn's diverse student population, this will represent a vehicle of global talent, with a pair of prodigious Singaporeans in the driver's seat.
The Venue:
The event will be held at the University of Pennsylvania, which is situated in the heart of the historic city of Philadelphia - a major commercial, educational and cultural center for the United States. Penn is also home to the Wharton School, the top business school in the world, and hosts some of the brightest students in the Ivy League and the world.
Accommodation:
In line with the primary aim of this event to bring together Singaporeans across the US, the Singaporean students here at Penn would like to take this a step further by offering to host any guests that need accommodation. If you are interested, please indicate your preference in the registration form as soon as possible as the number of rooms available is limited.

* The Buddhist Studies Seminar at
Columbia University
www.cbs.columbia.edu
Presents:
SERINITY YOUNG
American Museum of Natural History
"Apsaras, ? akinis, & Yoginis: Aerial Women and Buddhist Utilizations of Sexuality"
Th. February 22, 1st Fl. @ Faculty House,
Columbia University. 5:30-7pm
*Dinner to follow, RSVP cdk2001@columbia
Apsaras, ? akinis, and yoginis are familiar figures in
Buddhist art and literature. Historically, all three
first appear as unpredictable, independent and highly
ambivalent beings with the power to bestow new life
or to snatch it away, but over the centuries they lost
their autonomous status as they were incorporated
into increasingly male-identified religious traditions
within Buddhism and Hinduism. For instance, ? akinis
and yoginis were assimilated into Tantric forms of
worship such as the cult of Bhairava, while apsaras
were placed firmly under the control of Indra. As will
be shown, all three were incorporated into Buddhism,
which further constrained their powers. This talk will
explores these transitions and the roles of living women
who imitated or represented them in various religious
and political settings of pre-Tantric and Tantric Buddhism.
In different ways, apsaras, ? akinis, and yoginis both
challenge and aid men who desire transcendence or
more immanent supernatural powers. I will argue that
the utilization and containment of their powers of
fertility and renewal have been a consistent practice in
Buddhism, one that limited the social, religious and
political roles of Buddhist women.

Washington DC: Asia Program Lecture
Hola China-watchers and other Northeast Asia experts!
Did you know that China is the first nation outside of the United States to purchase rights of exploration to oil fields in a Latin American country (Venezuela)? Did you know that those giant Mexican sombreros that tourists love to purchase are made in China? What is going on? Is this somehow a violation of the Monroe Doctrine? To learn more about China's growing presence in Latin America, join us on Wednesday, Feb. 21 for an all-afternoon conference as the Asia Program of the Wilson Center, together with our Latin America Program and the Johns Hopkins School of Advanced International Studies present:
Enter the Dragon? China's Presence in Latin America
Wednesday, February 21 - Woodrow Wilson Center - 2:00 - 5:30 p.m. - 6th Floor Auditorium
The purpose of this conference is to deepen our understanding of the rapid expansion of trade and political relations between China and Latin America since the beginning of the new millennium. Such trade has grown at an annual rate of 24 percent since the early 1990s, almost three times the rate of growth for all trade in the region. China's voracious appetite for raw materials and agricultural imports to sustain its booming economy and population account for most of this increase: in 2003, for example, two countries--Argentina and Brazil--accounted for almost a third of China's total agricultural imports, while Chile, whose principal source of foreign exchange is copper, provided China with one-fifth of its imports of copper. Whether measured in terms of trade, direct foreign investment, or the number of visits of senior Chinese officials to countries of the region, China is a growing presence in the Western Hemisphere and the dynamics of the relationship are just beginning to be explored systematically. Reservations are required. Accordingly, please RSVP, acceptances only, to Jessica Varat at Jessica.Varat@wilsoncenter.org, or call 202-691-4075.
(III) Employment and Internship Opportunities
The Congressional-Executive Commission on China (CECC) is currently soliciting resumes for summer internships (paid) in Washington, D.C., working on Chinese human rights and rule of law issues. Interns must be U.S. Citizens.
Applications for summer internships must be received by close of business, March 1, 2007. Further details are available both in the enclosed attachment and on the Commission's Web site at www.cecc.gov.
Interested applicants should send a cover letter and resume to the CECC via e-mail to Judy Wright (judy.wright@mail.house.gov) or via fax at (202) 226-3804, attention: Judy Wright, Director of Administration.
Please forward the following announcement to interested students (both undergraduate and graduate), particularly those with strong research and language skills.
Internships at the Congressional-Executive Commission on China
We welcome your interest in working as an intern at the Congressional-Executive Commission on China (CECC). We value the contribution that interns make to our work, and we have benefited from the intellectual and practical contributions of the interns who have worked with us so far. We are also gratified about the number of very highly qualified people who apply to work with us as interns each year.
To better understand the work of the Commission and its areas of most intense focus, we invite potential applicants to explore the CECC website ( www.cecc.gov ).
Interested applicants should send a cover letter and resume to the CECC via fax at (202) 226-3804, attention: Judy Wright, Director of Administration, or via e-mail to Judy Wright . Please discuss in your cover letter how your professional goals, interests, and background relate to the Commission's legislative mandate regarding human rights and the rule of law in China.
Those who wish to apply for internships should understand the following:
• Interns must be U.S. citizens;
• We regret that interns are not eligible for federal benefits.
• During the fall and spring semesters, CECC internships are part-time, and we expect interns to work between 15 and 20 hours per week;
• During the summer, CECC internships are full-time, and we expect summer interns to work between 32 and 40 hours per week;
• Interns should have at least some background in U.S.-China relations generally or in one or more of the specific human rights and rule of law issues in the CECC legislative mandate .
• Interns should be able to read Chinese well enough to assist with research in newspapers, journals, and on websites. More advanced Chinese language capability would be a plus. The successful candidate for an internship often will have lived or studied in mainland China, Hong Kong, or Taiwan.
• Interns will conduct research and writing projects on human rights and rule of law issues in China under the supervision of Commission staff. Interns may also assist with researching and updating records on the Commission's Political Prisoner Database . Interns may also be invited or required to attend some of the many rule of law and human rights events organized by the Commission and other organizations in Washington, D.C.
• Although our interns are generally current students pursuing an undergraduate or graduate degree, others are also welcome to apply.
Sincerely,
Judy Wright
Director of Administration
