HALF OF CHINA: A REPORT ON A CONFERENCE·

THE INFLUENCE of the women's movement in the United States is being felt in many parts of academia, not all of which are political. China scholars, both men and women, are now more inclined to treat the status, activities, influence, and roles of the female half of Chinese society as legitimate subjects for research. Where ten years ago women in traditional China were dismissed as the pathetic but not particularly interesting victims of an androcentric patrilineal social system, many students of the society (though by no means all) are now beginning to take a closer look at such things as the political effect of Chinese peasant women's domestic power, or the uncomfortable compromise made by elite intellectual women early in this century between the principles of feminism and revolution. On June 11-15, 1973 an interdisciplinary conference with a very broad focus on Women in Chinese Society was held in San Francisco, under the auspices of the Joint Committee on Contemporary China of the Social Science Research Council and American Council of Learned Societies. The purpose of the conference was multiple: to provide

a forum in which people working in a variety of aca­demic disciplines but on the same general topic could ponder one another's conclusions, to stimulate new re­search on a very understudied aspect of China, and to encourage re-examination of the conclusions reached in earlier research on China.

The papers prepared for the conference reflect not only the varied disciplines of the participants but also the great diversity of methods by and settings in which Chinese women can be studied. Five of the papers were about Chinese in the island province of Taiwan, one on Hong Kong, and one about residents of an overseas Chinese community. Ten of the papers analyzed data about mainland Chinese, three of them, from the post-1949 period. For the obvious reason, all but one of the papers written about women resident on the mainland of China were based primarily on documentary evi­dence; the papers written about Chinese from other areas made fuller use of interview materials. Although this difference builds in certain biases in the nature of the data from different areas, it also encourages a de­pendence and a mutual respect between those who might be inclined to think they were studying the only "eal Chinese and those who might be incl ined to think only they were really studying Chinese. A gratuitous resolution of academic prejudice.

With a conference topic so broad that it embraces half the members of a society, it is not surprising that the papers and the discussions of them swung widely from psychological variables to sexual mores to literary traditions. What may be somewhat more surprising is the intellectual enthusiasm that can unite such a group of participants when discussion ranges from the roots of feminism in the Ming to a study of the family cycle in

25

Taiwan, and the discussion of that study in tum pro­vides new insight into the lives of leading women com­rades in the People's Republic. A legal scholar found the discussion of the dangerous power attributed to women's body effluvia had bearing on her own data, and her material added another dimension to a study commenting on the sometimes instrumental use of sui­cide by peasant women. And those interested in political change and revolution found much of value in a dis­cussion of the influence of sisters on the political affili­ations of their brothers. The blend of disciplines and perspectives made for unusually productive debates that more than justified the wide scope of the topic.

Some very clear themes for future research emerged from the conference, the most salient of which is the relationship between women and various aspects of the economy. By assuming that peasant women conformed to the elite stricture enforcing seclusion on women, we accepted uncritically the pre-1949 observations that women had a limited role in productive labor, including agriculture. We do not know what the traditional division of labor between the sexes really was, nor do we know to what extent it varied with the agricultural base of a community. One of the themes of the women's movement in the United States and an important vari­able in studies of women in all social sciences is the relationship between the status of women in a society and the extent of their involvement in productive labor. Marjorie Topley provided evidence for this relation­ship: young women in Kwang-tung around the turn of the century used their unusual earning capacity in the silk industry to reject the conventional path of marriage and subjugation by the family. On the other side of the issue, men who labored certainly did not have higher status than those who did not, and the status of women in the family increased at the same time that they were withdrawing from what­ever involvement in productive labor they may have had. On yet another level of societal analysis, Hakka women who on the whole (again our data are gross) are considerably more active in labor outside of the home seem to have considerably more status and power than other Chinese women. In the People's Republic this theoretical relationship between involvement in pro­ductive labor and status is accepted to the point of being the basis for policy on the bumpy path toward women's equality. Clearly, the economic variable is one of those having major priorities in research on women in China, be it from the perspective of history, political science, economics, or anthropology.

It is not possible here to do more than mention some of the other topics that came up during the conference and were deemed to be in great need of research. Natu-

26

rally sexism was a frequent issue both as a practical prob­lem and as one of theoretical interest. For example, on the practical level, why has the People's Republic not been more successful in its attempts to deal with sexism; and on the theoretical level, why does sexism seem to be one of the most difficult tasks in any revolution? The role of feminism in China, as a movement and as a set of prin­ciples, also was a central subject of discussion. The rela­tionship between feminism and nationalism, between the feminist cause and political revolution, between femi­nism in the elite and family reform in peasant society were issues that arose again and again only to be put aside for lack of conclusive information.

There was consensus also about the need for more historical research on the status of women in the various periods of China's long history. To date, the topic ap­parently has not been particularly appealing to serious students, or has been confined to studies of excep­tional women or movements. A real need was seen by anthropologists and historians alike for a broader view, a drawing together of the tantalizing bits of evidence that show change in women's status, both up and down, of both elite and peasant. Here our interests were to in­crease not only understanding of the past, and hence of the context of modern society, but also what such studies can tell us about the process of change. There is a notion among some students of social change that women are the "cutting edge," that, historically speaking, changes in their status, role, etc. reflect changes less visible else­where but affecting the whole of society. It is an inter­esting thought and one that in the Chinese case can be examined as a theory with the valuable by-product of en­couraging research on a seriously neglected topic.

The third aim of the conference, to encourage re­examination of earlier research from the perspective of the female half of Chinese society, began to produce new insights even as the papers were being written. We have accepted for so long the view of Chinese society contained in the male ideology that we have casually labeled as "deviant" families that did not conform to the patrilineal structure. When Arthur Wolf examined the biographies of hundreds of Taiwanese women born early in this century or late in the last century (and anecdotal evidence from elsewhere in China), he found "deviant" families to be more typical than "conven­tional" families, and he hypothesizes that much of this variation from the presumed norm results from the de­cisions women make about the marriages of their chil­dren. This calls into question many of our assumptions about the nature of Chinese domestic life. Who does make decisions about major family events so crucial to male-descent principles? Have we been led astray only by male ideology or have we further muddled our un-

VOLUME 27, NUMBER !J

derstanding of the society by inappropriately saddling peasants with elite values and elite behavior? In trying to sort out male ideology, peasant behavior, and elite values, we would do well to take a long look at studies of social mobility. A few men in China made huge social leaps but, since women were expected to marry into fam­ilies slightly higher on the social scale than their own, nearly all women took a few steps upward every gener­ation with their own marriages, the marriages of their daughters, and of their granddaughters.

Many of the papers prepared for the conference are be-

ing revised for publication in a single volume. They may serve as happy samples of what is being done currently to make up for the neglect of this obviously fruitful ap­proach to the study of Chinese society. However, they cannot begin to convey the intensity of discussion at the conference, the sense of shared discovery, the con­viction that a beginning had been celebrated. By the time another conference on Chin~se women is called, we have high hopes that the background material will have been collected, that the focus can be smaller and the problems more specific.

SCHOLARL Y EXCHANGE WITH THE PEOPLE'S REPUBLIC OF CHINA A report prepared by Anne Keatley and Albert Feuerwerker

PROSPECTS for increasing scholarly exchange with the People's Republic of China are now several shades brighter as a consequence of agreements reached be­tween the Committee on Scholarly Communication with the People's Republic of China (which is jointly sponsored by the American Council of Learned Socie­ties, the National Academy of Sciences, and the Social Science Research Council) and the Scientific and Tech­nical AssociatIOn of the P.R.C. during a visit to China by the committee from May 15 to june 15, 1973. In the early stages of these extended academic contacts, the emphasis will be on the natural and medical sciences, but exchanges in the social sciences and humanities will begin and they undoubtedly will increase as economic, political, and cultural relations between the United States and China develop.

The visiting delegation was made up of committee members-excluding those who had recently visited the P.R.C. under other auspices, or who would be part of a medical science delegation scheduled to visit China under the committee's sponsorship in mid-june-and of several scientists who are not members of the com­mittee: Emil L. Smith, chairman of the committee and chairman of the Department of Biological Chemistry, University of California Medical School, Los Angeles, and Mrs. Smith; Frederick Burkhardt, President, Ameri­can Council of Learned Societies, and Mrs. Burkhardt; Eleanor Bernert Sheldon, President, Social Science Re­search Council; Harrison Brown, Foreign Secretary, National Academy of Sciences, and Director of the Population Program, Division of Humanities and So­cial Sciences, California Institute of Technology, and Mrs. Brown: Albert Feuerwerker, Director of the Center for Chinese Studies, University of Michigan, and chair­man of the SSRC-ACLS Toint Committee on Contempo­rary China, and Mrs. Feuerwerker; Max Loehr, Pro-

fessor of Oriental Art, Harvard University; Ezra F. Vogel, Director of the East Asian Institute, Harvard University, and a member of the joint Committee on Contemporary China; Victor F. Weisskopf, Professor of Physics, Massachusetts Institute of Technology; and Anne Keatley, Staff Director of the committee.

Visiting China with the committee were Bruce S. Old, Foreign Secretary, National Academy of Engineer­ing, and Senior Vice President of Arthur D. Little Co., and Mrs. Old; Glenn T. Seaborg, Associate Director of the Lawrence Berkeley Laboratory and Professor of Chemistry, University of California, Berkeley, and Mrs. Seaborg; George Harrar, President Emeritus, Rocke­feller Foundation; and Robert G. Sachs, Director, Ar­gonne National Laboratory, and Professor of Physics, University of Chicago.

During the month spent in China, the delegation visited universities, research institutes, museums, his­torical sites, schools, hospitals, factories, communes, and neighborhoods in or near nine cities: Canton, Peking, Sian, Loyang, Nanking, Wuhsi, Soochow, Shanghai, and Hangchow. The members of the delegation met with many scholars in their several fields, and held discussions with senior Chinese officials including Premier Chou En-laL Throughout its visit the delegation was accom­panied by Mr. P'an Chun, Director of the Foreign Af­fairs Office of the Chinese Academy of Sciences and the Scientific and Technical Association and by five other staff members of that office. The reception that the delegation received everywhere was invariably warm and friendly.

Formed in 1966 to foster scholarly communication between the two countries, the committee recently has had increasing opportunities to carry out its mission. It provided administrative support for the visit of a Chi­nese physicians' delegation to the United States in

27

October 1972 and hosted a Chinese scientific delegation during their U.S. visit in November and December 1972. This spring and summer the committee has sponsored three additional scholarly delegations from the P.R.C. in the fields of high-energy physics, insect hormone re­search, and hydro technology. Prior to the committee's journey to China, its role with respect to the American side of exchanges between the two countries had been largely one of assisting and advising American scholars on the status of Sino-American scholarly communica­tions, on procedures for making contact with Chinese academic organizations, and on sources of information about the current status of science in China. In addition, the committee provided travel grants for a small num­ber of scholarly groups that had obtained visas through their own efforts: 6 computer scientists in July 1972, 11 physicians from the National Medical Association in October 1972, and 7 physicists in July 1973.

While Americans, scholars and others, have gone and will continue to go to China under many different auspices, the invitation to the committee from the Scientific and Technical Association of the P.R.C. and the discussions in Peking during the trip confirmed and solidified the informal working arrangements between the American committee and its Chinese counterpart 1

that developed in the course of the committee's spon­sorship of the several visiting Chinese delegations just noted. The most important direct result of the com­mittee's own visit is that for the first time a specific pro­gram of two-way exchanges has been agreed upon in principle between Chinese academic authorities and a group representing American academic institutions. Nine American groups, whose interests range from earthquakes to early childhood development, will visit China within the next one or two years under the com­mittee's auspices. In return the Scientific and Technical Association will send seven scholarly groups (in addi­tion to the three noted earlier) to the United States where their visits will be hosted by the committee. These agreements represent a minimum; it can be expected that a wide variety of additional academic exchanges (mainly American visits to China) will be arranged through other channels; and nonacademic cultural ex­changes will proceed as they have begun, both with the assistance of the National Committee on United States­China Relations and under other auspices.

The Committee on Scholarly Communication with the People's Republic of China and the Chinese authori­ties acknowledged that the interests of the scholarly com­munities of the two countries are in many respects dis­similar. Each side noted that the principle of equality

28

and mutual benefit in all exchanges will require that American delegations to China represent fields of schol­arship that would benefit from collaboration with Chinese scholars or access to Chinese society. In practice, however, during the talks in Peking between the com­mittee and the Scientific and Technical Association, the Chinese side was notably reluctant to accept "at this time" some of the committee's proposals in the social sciences and humanities, including Chinese studies (in which the SSRC and ACLS have interests through their Joint Committee on Contemporary China and the ACLS Committee on the Study of Chinese Civilization). Premier Chou En-lai, who talked with the committee's delegation for two hours on May 27, 1973, explained with reference to these programs, "I have found that we need a stage of preparation. I am still hopeful that they can be taken up in the future." The committee is confident that this will indeed be the case, and in the meantime it plans to organize multidisciplinary dele­gations in the fields for which exchanges have been agreed upon that will include China scholars and others in the social sciences and the humanities where ap­propriate.

The details of the agreements for further scholarly communications are set forth in the following memo­randum, which is the committee's record of the results of its discussions with the Scientific and Technical Association:
