The Floating People and the Stationary Order: The Formation of Traditional Social and Spatial Structure in the Greater Bay Area 流動的人與凝固的秩序——大灣區的傳統社會結構與空間格局的形成
The Floating People and the Stationary Order: The Formation of Traditional Social and Spatial Structure in the Greater Bay Area 流動的人與凝固的秩序——大灣區的傳統社會結構與空間格局的形成
流動的人與凝固的秩序——大灣區的傳統社會結構與空間格局的形成 今天的大灣區，在古代是一個廣闊的海灣，海灣裏島嶼星羅棋布。在這個海灣裏生活著數以萬計的船居或島居的人群。宋代以後，海灣裏的島嶼周邊生長出由泥沙沉積形成的土地，隨著沖積土地的增長，以船爲生的島民也逐漸轉爲從事農耕的人口，在這些人口定居同時，明代以後，王朝秩序在灣區早期形成的社區聚落逐步確立，這些人口借助在王朝政治秩序下獲得的社會身份，逐步壟斷了灣區內新生長土地的開發和經營，形成了以民田-沙田分區的空間格局，民田區的大族與沙田區的疍民成爲身份上不可逾越的人群等級區分。在這樣的格局下，形成了大灣區獨特的社會結構。 The Floating People and the Stationary Order: The Formation of Traditional Social and Spatial Structure in the Greater Bay Area During ancient time, most part of the area what now we call “the Greater Bay Area” were still under the sea. There were just many islands in this bay. Many people based on boats or islands lived in this big bay. After the Song dynasty, many lands brought by sedimentary sand (sand-lands) emerged around those islands. With the expansion of those new lands, many people living on boats became settled farmers. After the Ming dynasty, the political order in this area was constructed by the state. Relying on the state power, those settled farmers monopoly on the […]
Celebrating the 40th Anniversary of the University of Macau: FAH/DPHIL Lecture Series – “Harmony, Domination, and Freedom” by Prof. Chenyang Li, Nanyang Technological University, Singapore
Celebrating the 40th Anniversary of the University of Macau: FAH/DPHIL Lecture Series – “Harmony, Domination, and Freedom” by Prof. Chenyang Li, Nanyang Technological University, Singapore
Zoom: https://umac.zoom.us/j/95990453576 Abstract: Much of the pre-Qin Chinese philosophy during the Spring-Autumn and Warring States period can be understood in the light of issues related to harmony as a solution to a chaotic world. Harmony takes place mainly in two forms, active and passive harmony. Active harmony is a state or process in which involved parties dynamically engage one another in a constructive way while maintaining a good level of equity. Passive harmony is merely the absence of discord or conflict, without active engagement. Disharmony is characterized by confrontation, conflict, and chaos. Domination exists with order, even though with an oppressive one. Domination may be disguised as, but must be distinguished from, harmony. While clarifying these concepts, I will also […]

Celebrating the 40th Anniversary of the University of Macau: FAH/DPHIL Lecture Series – “Chinese and Western Values: Reflections on the Methodology of a Cross-Cultural Dialogue” by Prof. Karl-Heinz Pohl, Trier University, Germany
Celebrating the 40th Anniversary of the University of Macau: FAH/DPHIL Lecture Series – “Chinese and Western Values: Reflections on the Methodology of a Cross-Cultural Dialogue” by Prof. Karl-Heinz Pohl, Trier University, Germany
Zoom: https://umac.zoom.us/j/95851898439 Abstract Value systems have their origins in religious traditions. Christian ideas and values still form the basis of Western societies, although now mostly in a secularized fashion; hence they can be called post-Christian values. Comparing the impact of Confucianism in East Asia to that of Christianity in the West, one can regard Confucianism as a functional equivalent of the Christian faith: Confucian values have exerted a profound and lasting influence on China over a period of even more than 2000 years. As "post-Confucianism" it still forms the ethical basis of Chinese society. Considering these differences, basic methodological aspects concerning a cross-cultural dialogue between China and the “West” will be explored. They include: the relation between partners who participate […]
