My First Marathon

THE decision on where to run my first marathon was an easy one: I chose my second home, Xiamen, a beautiful city with long beaches and a lovely climate. The route for the Xiamen marathon, which runs along the Island Ring Road, must be the most beautiful in the world. This year was the city's third to hold a marathon, and it attracted 15,000 participants from several countries. I downloaded a training program     

Birthplace of the Qing Dynasty

After having studied Chinese for almost three years in Jordan, I chose northeast China as my destination in an attempt to improve my standard Chinese and learn the northeastern dialect. I arrived in China for the first time in 2017, with Shenyang, capital of Liaoning Province, embarking on my journey.

A Humble Approach to Mandarin

<正>I have always wanted to learn another language. As a kid, my cousin and I would speak in our own made-up language and pretend that we understood each other.In an effort to fulfill my goal, I had my goat Spanish. My high school required a foreign language and Spanish was the only option. I tried to connect with the language, but I could not find the motivation to really focus.     

Shuttling Between the City and Countryside

BOTH my husband and I have decent jobs. As public servants, we work from 8 am to 6 pm for a salary that supports a decent but frugal life. As a reward for our hard work, I got a promotion, and my husband was     

My Magic Memories Will Last Forever

IN 1995 luck came my way. I entered Anhui Normal University and, at the first class meeting, met Wang Fang, a girl in a green blouse, whose limpid eyes and sweetly shy smile instantly stole my heart. To a boy from the countryside, this city girl seemed to me the essence of beauty, charm and sophistication. It was this great difference in

Reflections on My Time in China

Chinese bureaucratic politics and the origins of the great leap forward

This essay is a response to Alfred L. Chan's critique of my book, Bureaucracy, Economy, and Leadership in China This essay reaffirms the arguments of my book by examining the nature of politics in China in the mid 1950s through a variety of methods and some sources available after my book was published. It shows that bureaucratic politics was very common during the mid 1950s, that the Chinese political system was institutionalized, and that there were significant disagreements between top financial officials (Chen Yun and Li Xiannian) and top planners (Li Fuchun and Bo Yibo). It also argues in passing that Chen Yun was no ordinary planner; he was the most economically reform minded leader in the Soviet bloc in 1956–1957. In conclusion, I suggest some major questions for which conventional accounts cannot fully account.

China and Egypt,Apart but Alike

At first glance, my motherland, Egypt, and China seem to be worlds apart. In a strictly geographical sense, there are 6,896 km between them. But a closer look reveals much the two countries have in common. That was what my uncle, who served as ambassador to China in the 1990s, used to tell me.

My Reverse Culture Shock: England To China and Back

Iarrived in Shanghai in late August 2017 and was greeted with humid, hot and tropical temperatures, the likes of which I had never before experienced in the UK. I was working my first day as an English teacher in a Chinese public school. Feeling dehydrated and tired, I asked a colleague in my office where I could find the water fountain.     

A Leap of Language

正Prior to arriving in China in 2017,I had read various books relating to China,famous Chinese novels as well as non-fiction and the seeds of my fascination were sown.Therefore,when I arrived I couldn't have been more excited to be living in this huge historically and culturally rich country,so vastly different to my native home of the UK.The food,the landmarks,the mega cities and everyday life-I was raring to explore.

漫长的多中心之旅

本文讨论了我的个人经历、我们之中与印第安纳大学政治理论与政策分析研究所相关的许多人的努力,即研究在不同背景下,制度是如何影响行动和后果的。首先,我回顾了我作为年轻学子的经历和我的早期职业生涯,旨在激励那些面对难题的人们。然后,我讨论了我们的制度分析和我们对于都市治理和公共池塘资源的研究,这些研究帮助我逐步发展了分析复杂制度的较为一般的框架。这一框架已经能够使我们发掘和分析制度结构、行为和后果,做出和检验内在一致的预测,并且建立更好的理论。最后,我就未来学术发展方向,与大家分享了一些看法。
