DESCRIPTION:Frank Dikotter\, Hong Kong University\, China After Mao \n\nTh
 is talk will present China after Mao\, a book which uses hundreds of hithe
 rto unseen documents from municipal and provincial archives in the People
 ’s Republic to examine forty years of so-called “Reform and Opening Up
 ”. The author will cover some of the key episodes in the story of China
 ’s transformation from impoverished Maoist backwater into powerful Marxi
 st-Leninist state. \n\n\nJieyu Liu\, SOAS\, Family Life in Urban China: A 
 Three-Generation Portrait \n\nThis talk will draw upon over one hundred li
 fe history interviews with three urban generations of men and women to exa
 mine how continuities and changes in family life have been shaped by the w
 ider political\, socio-economic and demographic transformations since 1949
 . The portrait it paints offers a forceful alternative narrative to Wester
 n modernity theorists' overly homogenized view of intimacy and family life
 .  \nSpeakers:\nDr Jieyu Liu (SOAS China Institute\, University of London)
 \, Prof. Frank Dikotter (Hong Kong University)
