Abstract

This study adopts a case study method to investigate the interaction between tea and the local government. From the 18th century to the early 20th century, black tea was an important export commodity of China’s Hubei and Hunan region (两湖地区). The black tea trade between the UK and the Hubei and Hunan region (两湖地区) had driven the rise of black tea cultural capital in the region. The cultural capital of black tea brought economic capital, and the local government increased fiscal revenue by levying likin on tea. The economic capital of black tea transformed into political capital, and the local government could compete with the central government and directly negotiate with foreign governments. To dump products onto China, the British government had to maintain the unity of the Chinese market, choose to ally with the central government and weaken the autonomy of the local government of the Hubei and Hunan region (两湖地区). The local governments turned to seeking support from Russia and developed the brick tea trade. This result led to the gradual inability of the national power represented by the central government to control local governments.

Abstract

In the early years of the founding of the People’s Republic of China (PRC), the Communist Party then referred to as CPC implemented a series of equality policies in favor of women. This type of policy is reflected in the allocation of childcare labor resources, emphasizing the construction of women’s social welfare. However, China’s women’s welfare policies are influenced by overall political decision making and exhibit an unstable state. This study discusses the changes in the CPC’s childcare norms from 1949 to 1957. Using the laws and regulations issued by the CPC government from 1949 to 1957 and the news materials published from 1949 to 1957, this study classifies and discusses these first hand historical materials in different periods using the method of literature analysis. This study uses Friedman’s legal culture theory to analyze the interaction between the internal legal culture of the government representatives of the CPC and the external legal culture of the people’s representatives. This study finds that by exploring the process of the construction of women’s welfare policy of the PRC from 1949 to 1957, it can be clearly seen that under the condition of limited financial capacity, women’s welfare work is easily abolished due to other more important national socio-economic work. From these results, this study finally concludes that women’s liberation become a tool to serve the national construction under the discourse construction of the CPC.

Abstract

Adaptation to the norms of nation-states has always been one of the most important issues for Southeast Asian countries. This paper takes Aceh and Western Papua as examples to explore their interaction with the central government of Indonesia and try to answer why local authorities have different responses after implementing the indirect rule. This study mainly uses process tracking methods to test the interaction between the central and local governments in Indonesia. This study believes that trust is the fundamental factor that determines whether the local authorities and the central government can have a positive interaction. This reason will change the central government in the process of State-building. The study found that Aceh and Western Papua had different feedback to the central government. The key lies in whether they form a "trust” interaction, rather than whether they adopt an inclusive system (democratic system). This study concluded the feedback difference between Aceh and Western Papua as a classic case shows that, as a country, it is not only represented by the central government but also needs the "trust” of the central government and local authorities to form good governance, as well as national development effective.

Abstract

As the most powerful organization in Southeast Asia, ASEAN’s normative power has become an important regional order for its member countries, and its primary task is to maintain the survival of Southeast Asian countries. However, in the process of forming the normative power of ASEAN, Brunei and Timor-Leste, two smaller countries, were treated differently. Therefore, this article attempts to use Brunei and Timor-Leste as examples to explore the impact of their accession to ASEAN on the normative power of ASEAN. This article uses historical analysis methods to compare the differences in interactions between ASEAN, Brunei, and Timor-Leste. This study finds that “trust” is the key to the differences in interaction between ASEAN and Brunei and Timor Leste. The normative power of ASEAN will only come into play when member states have ‘trust’ in its identity. At the same time, the state, which is trusted by other member states, can also shape the direction and strength of norms, strengthen the integration of the community, and thus drive the expansion of the space for order. This study concluded that although economic and security factors are important, the fundamental reason for the expansion and integration of ASEAN lies in ‘trust’.
