Description

The Center for Chinese Studies at the University of Michigan has been particularly fortunate in having benefited from the contributions of four key senior faculty for more than three decades. Each one has contributed in significant ways both to the scholarship in their disciplines and to the development of the China field as a whole: Donald Munro in philosophy, Albert Feuerwerker in history, Norma Diamond in anthropology, and Robert F. Dernberger in economics. When all four reached retirement age within the same two years, current Center faculty and former students wished to convey their gratitude for the contributions these four have made. The Center convened a two-day conference in spring 1995 around the broad theme of the interaction of culture and development in modern China. Constructing China presents the symposium papers for philosophy, history, anthropology, and economics, along with substantive introductions for each group of papers written by the respective retirees. The essays range across a wide intellectual landscape, reflecting the breadth of scholarship that the four honorees have nurtured.
