Fields
Modern Chinese history is my major field, and I am particularly interested in its diplomatic relations with Japan and the United States. I am also interested in China's rural history and intellectual history (specifically the relations between science and politics).
Dissertation Topic
I have not narrowed it down yet, although it will be about the linkage between China's domestic politics and diplomacy over the Taiwan issue in the late 1950s and early 60s.
