【IAS】Guest Lecture: “Re-Thinking Global Political Theory” was successfully held

2025-02-20T00:00:44+08:00

On January 16, Guest Lecture on the topic of “Re-Thinking Global Political Theory” was successfully held, organized by the Institute of Advanced Studies in Humanities and Social Sciences (IAS). The speaker, Professor Michael Puett, Professor of Chinese History and Anthropology and Director of the Asia Center at Harvard University, delved into the impact of neoliberalism on the global economy and positioned China’s political debates within a larger historical context to foster a more global understanding of political theory. Professor Xingzhong Yu, Director of IAS and Chair Professor of the Department of Global Legal Studies of FLL, was invited to moderate the talk.

In his address, Professor Michael Puett highlighted that while neoliberalism presents a relatively clear narrative globally, this narrative might need rethinking from a Chinese perspective. He traced the historical evolution of neoliberal policies, particularly their resurgence during the 1970s stagflation in the U.S., emphasizing how these theories influenced leaders like Margaret Thatcher and Ronald Reagan, leading to the dismantling of welfare states and public institutions.

Additionally, Professor Yu emphasized the complexities of integrating Western neoliberal ideas into China’s unique context, particularly how to balance rational choice theory and emotional decision-making. He encouraged the audience to consider how evaluating interest maximization is often emotionally charged yet can still be deemed rational within China’s ideological framework.

During the Q&A session, the audience engaged actively on the influence of global governance systems on national economic policy sovereignty. Professor Michael Puett pointed out that nations signing onto such agreements often cede economic policy sovereignty, leading to increased wealth concentration and inequality. He called for a radical reevaluation of existing economic and administrative frameworks to address contemporary global challenges effectively.

In conclusion, the lecture not only provided an in-depth analysis of neoliberalism but also prompted attendees to reflect on how to re-examine political theory in the context of globalization. This event undoubtedly offered rich intellectual insights and sparked deeper considerations for future economic policies and governance models.

1月16日，澳門大學高研院成功舉辦主題為“對全球政治理論的再思考”的嘉賓講座。主講人為哈佛大學亞洲中心主任及中國歷史與人類學教授邁克爾·普特（Michael Puett）教授。講座深入探討了新自由主義對全球經濟的影響，並將中國的政治辯論置於更大的歷史背景之中，力求推動對政治理論的全球理解。本次講座的主持人為高研院院長、法學院環球法律學系講座教授於興中教授。

在講座中，邁克爾·普特教授指出，儘管新自由主義在全球範圍內相對清晰，但從中國的視角來看，這種狀況可能需要重新思考。他分析了新自由主義的歷史演變，特別是其與1970年代美國滯漲的關係，強調這一理論如何影響了領導者如撒切爾和里根的政策決策，以及推動了福利國家和公共機構的削弱。

於興中教授在隨後的討論中強調了將西方新自由主義思想融入中國獨特背景的複雜性，尤其是如何在理性選擇理論和情感決策之間找到平衡。他鼓勵與會者思考在中國這一特定意識形態背景下，如何理解和定義理性決策。

問答環節中，與會者積極提問，就全球治理體系及其對國家經濟政策主權的影響進行了討論。邁克爾·普特教授指出，國家在簽署全球治理協議時往往放棄了經濟政策的主權，導致了財富集中和不平等加劇。他呼籲對現有經濟和行政框架進行根本性的重新評估，以更有效地應對當今的全球挑戰。

此次講座不僅提供了對新自由主義的深入分析，還促使與會者反思如何在全球化的背景下重新審視政治理論。這場講座無疑為參與者提供了豐富的思想啓發，激發了對未來經濟政策和治理模式的深入思考。

Dear Colleagues and Students,

The Institute of Advanced Studies in Humanities and Social Sciences (IAS) cordially invite you to participate in IAS Guest Lecture: “Re-Thinking Global Political Theory”, scheduled for 16 January 2025 (Thu). Please find the details below:

  • Title: “Re-Thinking Global Political Theory”

  • Moderator: Prof. Xingzhong Yu (Director of IAS, Chair Professor of Global Legal Studies, University of Macau)
  • Date: 16 January 2025 (Thu)
  • Time: 15:30 – 17:00 PM

  • Registration: Click Here

Biography of Speaker:

Michael Puett is the Walter C. Klein Professor of Chinese History and Anthropology and the Director of the Asia Center at Harvard University. His interests are focused on the inter-relations between religion, philosophy, anthropology, and history, with the hope of bringing the study of China into larger historical, comparative, and theoretical frameworks. Michael is the recipient of a Harvard College Professorship for excellence in undergraduate teaching, the Joseph R. Levenson Memorial Teaching Prize, the Star Family Prize for Excellence in Advising, and the Everett Mendelsohn Excellence in Mentoring Award. Since 2012 his course on classical Chinese ethical and political theory has been one of the highest enrolled undergraduate courses at Harvard.

Abstract:

We seem to have a relatively clear (if somewhat uncomfortable) narrative concerning the rise and (potential) decline of neoliberalism. But, if we take into account the perspective of China, such a narrative may have to be re-thought. This talk will place some of the current political debates in China within a larger historical context and argue that these debates may force us to re-think some of our assumptions concerning the workings of the state and the economy and accordingly to re-think some of our readings of recent history. My hope is that the talk will help to contribute to developing a more global understanding of political theory.

On the occasion of the fifth anniversary of the Institute for Advanced Studies in Humanities and Social Sciences at the University of Macau, we would like to express our gratitude for your unwavering support to us. Your involvement and support have helped build a strong foundation for our interdisciplinary research platform and inspired us to keep moving forward. The IAS is excited to carry on our mission, rooted in Macau, by organizing high-quality academic activities that showcase the diversity of academic collaboration.

 

We look forward to seeing you at this event! For more information about IAS, please visit the website at https://ias.um.edu.mo/. Should you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact us at ias.programme@um.edu.mo.

The 4th Annual Conference, organized by the Institute of Advanced Studies in Humanities and Social Sciences (IAS) of the University of Macau, was successfully held from November 7 to 8, 2024, at the UM Gallery Auditorium. The theme of this year’s conference, “Understanding the Population Dynamics: Multidisciplinary Perspectives on a Global Challenge,” brought together 25 distinguished experts, scholars, and industry leaders from both domestic and international institutions. Through a multidisciplinary approach, the conference facilitated in-depth discussions on the impact of population changes on society, policy, and individual lives. Over the course of two days, the event attracted many participants fostering significant academic exchanges.

The conference featured six panel discussions with experts and scholars from prestigious institutions, including the Fudan University, Wuhan University, East China Normal University, Shanghai Normal University, Southwest University of Political Science and Law, Zhejiang University of Technology, Jinan University, Lingnan University, Dalian University of Foreign Languages, Shantou University, University of Pennsylvania, University of Queensland, Maastricht University and the Institute of Sino-Christian Studies. By gathering perspectives from diverse scholars, the conference enabled the exchange of insights across disciplines and regions, deepening scholarly discussions and providing a valuable platform for UM faculty and IAS fellows to engage with leading experts, broadening their international perspectives.

The conference covered a range of topics, including policy and law, social change related to demographic trends, family and regional challenges, population and family dynamics, ethics, well-being, housing, and technology and privacy. Scholars discussed issues like fertility support in Mainland China, smart aging, the impact of population aging on family labor, ethical sensitivity in social integration, environmental ethics, and privacy in the digital era. The discussions emphasized the importance of interdisciplinary and multi-stakeholder collaboration in tackling global challenges. The success of the conference not only fostered interdisciplinary dialogue but also provided new perspectives and solutions for global population challenges.

The Annual Conference has been a signature event of IAS, providing a platform for scholarly exchanges, exploring emerging research, and broadening international perspectives. Looking ahead, IAS is committed to staying aligned with global research trends, organizing impactful academic activities, fostering international collaboration, and contributing to addressing global challenges and promoting human welfare.

2024-11-09T00:00:43+08:00

The Institute of Advanced Studies in Humanities and Social Sciences (IAS) of the University of Macau cordially invites you to participate in the “Fourth IAS Annual Conference” from November 7 to 8, 2024. The conference theme is Understanding the Population Dynamics: Multidisciplinary Perspectives on a Global Challenge.

Conference Theme

The global population dynamics manifests in many critical aspects—rapid population growth in some regions due to immigration and significant declines in others because of social and economic reasons. These demographic shifts present complex challenges that impact socio-economic stability, environmental sustainability, and global health. This conference aims to unpack the multifaceted nature of population dynamics through a multidisciplinary lens, exploring its causes, consequences, and the efficacy of current strategies aimed at addressing these issues. Drawing upon recent research and case studies, this conference will provide a comprehensive overview of the demographic trends shaping our world and facilitate the exchange of ideas and best practices for addressing these trends. This conference is geared towards academics, policymakers, environmentalists, and professionals working in public health and urban development, as well as anyone interested in the intersection of population dynamics and global sustainability.

Objective

The primary objective of this conference is to foster a deeper understanding of the global population dynamics, emphasizing an integrated approach that incorporates insights from demography, economics, law, philosophy, history, environmental science, and public policy. By examining the global challenges of population increase and decrease, this conference will highlight the need for nuanced, region-specific solutions while also advocating for international collaboration in addressing global demographic imbalances.
