EASTASN 104: Western Music & Politics in Modern China (EASTASN 204)

Western classical music first came to China 400 years ago. Since its arrival, it has almost always served a non-musical purpose - missionaries used it to convert, emperors to impress, intellectuals to change China, and Communists as a propaganda tool. Over the years, Western music has become so closely intertwined with Chinese politics that the two are often hard to separate and each has affected the other's development in remarkable ways. This seminar will survey the history of Western music in China and its close association with domestic politics and international diplomacy. It is designed for students interested in social history, cultural studies, China studies, international relations and music. We will listen to music but a musical background is not required or expected.

EASTASN 189K: Higher Education and Development in Korea (EASTASN 289K)

As the Republic of Korea (i.e. Korea) faces new challenges of economic stagnation, the role of higher education has become a major focus of policy attention in recent decades. In particular, in the context of a shrinking working-age population and declining birth rates, the globalization of higher education in Korea has been viewed as a viable solution to attracting skilled labor, questioning long-held cultural beliefs and practices and moving beyond the dominant idea of South Korea as an ethnically "homogenous" country. How has Korea globalized its higher education sector in recent decades? How has the internal sociology of Korean universities changed as a result and what contradictions and challenges remain? How can higher education reform affect Korea's future development? This course examines the role of globalization of higher education in Korea and its broader implications for social and cultural change in Korea and Asia. May be repeat for credit
