1、 中文word文档库Women and Non Traditional Security: A report by Chinese scholarsInstitute of World Economics and Politics (IWEP), ChinaThe paper intends to introduce the work my colleagues and I have done in the field of non-traditional security studies as well as our future research plan. It is divided i

2、nto two parts. In the first part, I will brief on the contents of the Feminist International Relations textbook as well as our ensuing tasks. In the second part, I will give you some information on the newly established Center of Gender & Global Issues at Beijing Foreign Studies University as we

3、ll as some of its future work plans.PART I Promote the Feminist International Relations TextbookThe Feminist International Relations textbook is one of the research subjects under the program of “Non-traditional Security and China” led by Dr. Wan Yizhou, sponsored by the Ford Foundation. As part of

4、the “Leading Textbooks on International Relations” series, it was published in November 2006 by Zhejiang Peoples Press.This books target users are undergraduates as well as post-graduates in higher education institutions. It is not only an ideal teaching material for the course of Feminist IR Studie

5、s, but also a good supplementary reading for such curriculums as IR Theory, Political Science and Womens Studies. StructureThe textbook Feminist International Relations consists of ten parts, including one introduction and nine chapters:Introduction (by Li Yingtao)Chapter 1 Development in the Study

6、of Feminist International Relations (by Hu Yan)Chapter 2 Gender Identity, Sovereignty and International System (by Hu Yan)Chapter 3 Gender, War and Peace (by Li Yingtao)Chapter 4 Gender Perspectives on Power and Security (by Hu Chuanrong)Chapter 5 Environment Security from a Gender Perspective (by G

7、uo Xiajuan)Chapter 6 International Womens Movements and International Organizations (by He Peiqun)Chapter 7 Women and Development (by He Peiqun)Chapter 8 Women, Culture and Nation (by Fan Ruolan)Chapter 9 Gender and Contemporary Diplomacy of China (by Hu Chuanrong)All the content can be roughly divi

8、ded into four modules.The introduction and the first chapter can be regarded as the first module. Since the study of feminist IR is new in China as well as abroad, readers are not very familiar with its analysis scope and theoretical framework. Thus, the introduction is to outline the general ideas

9、of feminism, the main research target of feminist IR as well as the purpose of designing such a course. Besides, it is to define some concepts and terms that are frequently used in later chapters. Based on a critical review of the Western theories, Chinese study of feminist IR gradually takes shape.

10、 As a result, the first chapter of this textbook is to review the development, main schools and prospects of feminist IR, as well as its interactions with mainstream IR theories. Such elaborations help to sort out the basic threads in the historical and real-life development in feminist IR. The seco

11、nd module, including chapters from two to five, is to criticize traditional IR theories. In pointing to the absence of gender analysis within the mainstream IR theories, this textbook strives to obtain new theoretical construction based on a feminist point of view, so as to update the agenda for mai

12、nstream IR studies in a comprehensive fashion.Chapters from six to eight constitute the third module. If the second module still revolves around the mainstream IR theories, this module introduces more brand-new contents and thus further enlarges the scope of IR.Undoubtedly, feminist researches are i

13、ndispensable from the development of international womens movements as well as the establishment of international womens organizations. The sixth chapter of International Organizations and International Womens Movements plays the role of transition as to build links between traditional IR theories a

14、nd a new feminist perspective. It studies the international organizations and international womens movements using the vertical as well as the horizontal parameters. Within the framework of North-South relations, the seventh chapter of Women and Development, along the main thread of development, pro

15、bes into the relations between the developed North and the developing South as well as those between men and women. More specifically, it first clarifies the traditional development concept, revealing the “absence” of women in it; and then elaborates on the feminist concept of development which is t

16、o emphasize feminist transcending the traditional concept on the development model. That is to say, feminist theory undertakes an incremental transformation from “women in development” to “gender and development”, forming a situation in which multilayered development models coexist. By offering a fr

17、esh perspective, feminism enriches the study of IR. As for the eighth chapter of Women, Culture, and Nation, it incorporates womens voice in the previously gender-absent IR study, and thus investigates the close ties linking women, culture, religion and ethnicity. The ninth chapter of Gender and Dip

18、lomacy in Contemporary China, which is also the fourth module, focuses on China. Such analysis of the Chinese diplomacy in contemporary times from a gender perspective is to reveal the vital role of the gender perspective in Chinas theoretical study of IR as well as its diplomatic practice and devel

19、opment. Feminism not only concerns women themselves, but also raises questions concerning the development of the whole human being. As a result, this chapter first concentrates on the changes inside and outside China in contemporary times which have transformed the gender concept and brought changes

20、 to Chinese womens social status. Against the backdrop counted, we examine the development of feminist world politics in China, analyzing the diplomatic practice of contemporary China using a gender perspective. Particularly we look into the interactions conducted by the All-China Womens Federation,

21、 with its foreign counterparts. Based on the analysis, we make the point that China has been concerned with the state-society relations and it is engaging mainstreaming gender concept into its foreign policy decision-making process.Main Features of this Textbook are as follows: Firstly, as for the c

22、ontents, the textbook takes into full consideration the characteristics of university students, linking theory with practice; Secondly, in form, the textbook combines both visual and textual elements to make it quite readable;Thirdly, the target users cover both undergraduates and graduate students;

23、Fourthly, as a “Chinese interpretation” of Western feminist IR, this textbook displays strong Chinese characteristics. All 9 chapters touch upon China as well as womens issues in China to various degrees, with the ninth chapter focusing specifically on China. We design the chapters in such a fashion

24、 so as to demonstrate the crucial role played by the theoretical as well as practical development of Chinas IR studies. Peng Peiyun, vice chairwoman of the Ninth Peoples Congress of P. R. China and honorary president of All-China Womens Federation, wrote an epigraph for our book, calling for scholar

25、s participating in the study of gender and global issues “to actively break new academic ground, and to contribute to the promotion of gender equality.”As for the Ensuing Tasks, we are to:First, create curriculum and promote the textbook simultaneously in Beijing Foreign Studies University, Peking U

26、niversity, China Womens University, Fudan University, Yunnan University, Capital Normal University and Tianjin Normal University. (These universities have consented to open such course.)Second, build communication network linking the above mentioned universities and run regular seminars, in the hope

27、 to enhance the teaching and research abilities on the part of teachers. Third, set up stimulation mechanisms encouraging students to select the course, such as providing students with opportunities to participate in course-related practical training, seminars and contests as well as to publish thei

28、r compositions.Part II Introduction to the Center of Gender & Global Issues at Beijing Foreign Studies UniversityBased on active preparations and ample deliberations, the Center of Gender & Global Issues at Beijing Foreign Studies University was set up on 29th November, 2006. Its establishme

The main purpose of the Center is to create and promote the curriculum related to gender and global issues, and to establish communication network linking scholars on gender and global issues.
