<>The Resurgence of Cultural Nationalism in the PRC: A New Synthesis or 
Regression?

 

A special issue of Portal (January 2007) in Chinese (full-form or 
simplified)

 

While there is no consensus that cultural nationalism has developed into 
a formidable force in China, few would deny that it has been on the rise 
since June 4th and that it is a cultural-political movement with no 
parallel in the People's Republic, if not since May Fourth.

 

Quite often the debate on cultural nationalism, as on nationalism in 
general, is polarised by a number of theoretical positions, value 
judgements, practical concerns and methodological choices. Advocates of 
nationalism typically justify it on the grounds that it is indispensable 
for China's national autonomy, unity and identity in the global 
nation-state system and the current international order, whereas its 
critics condemn it as 'extremist', 'regressive', 'aggressive', 
'chauvinistic', 'conservative', 'irrational', 'irredentist', 
'narrow-minded', 'reactionary', 'traditionalist', 'xenophobic', and so on. 

 

Although it is hardly possible to have a value-free debate, perhaps a 
more meaningful one could start from the recognition that 'deeper 
patterns of collective identity and pride are given form by nationalism 
as a way of talking and thinking and seeing the world' - a world at a 
basic level made up of nation-states, that whether this way of talking 
and thinking and seeing the world turns out to be flawed is an empirical 
question, not a conclusion to be foreordained by the adoption of a 
particular theoretical position or approach to the problem in question.

 

For these reasons, this special issue will focus on what is going on in 
the world of events. Of central concern in this special issue are 
particular aspects of the cultural nationalist ideology, movement and 
language; specific nationalist projects; and the causation and future 
prospect of cultural nationalism. Particularly welcome are papers which 
address what cultural nationalism is and does, why it has re-emerged in 
post-Tiananmen China, how it is related to political nationalism and the 
Party-state, and in what ways it is likely to impact on China's future 
development.

 

All papers should be submitted online. Only papers in Chinese will be 
accepted. Papers should be between 4,000 and 8,000 Chinese characters in 
length including footnotes and accompanied by an abstract of up to 300 
words in English and a list of up to six key words in English and 
Chinese. (Detailed stylistic requirements and Author Guidelines are 
available at the Portal website: 
http://epress.lib.uts.edu.au/ojs/index.php/portal/user/register.) It is 
anticipated that the special issue will appear in January 2007.
