“…Profound changes had also taken place in the field of Historiography. The idea of transcending national and regional boundaries and understanding the historical process as a whole has promoted the discourse construction in the view of global history [16] -the concern about local issues has made the global history different from world history chaptered by histories of many independent countries [17] -such a discourse advocates not only interaction and connection between different cultures, but also transcending national boundaries in cognition and examining local issues from a global perspective.…”

“…第二次世界大战前后，民族解放运动在全球范围内蓬勃发展，以西方为中心的殖民体系逐渐瓦解。深刻的变化同样发生在史学领域，超越国家与地区界线、整体性地理解历史过程的观念推动了全球史观的话语建构 [16] --对地方性问题的关注使得全球史不同于以往合并多国历史的世界史 [17] --这样的话语体系既提倡不同文化间的互动与联系，又提倡在认知上跨越民族-国家的边界，以全球性的视野来审视地方性问题。 20世纪80年代深圳经济特区的建设，一方面受国内因素所驱动，另一方面也受全球性的外部因素所驱动。那么，借助全球史观在这两个尺度之间建立有效关联，就有可能为审视20世纪80年代深圳经济特区城市公园建设这一地方性问题提供观照，而不仅仅是在国家的边界内对其建设作出解释，进而产生更具整体性的历史研究。…”

After reform and opening up, Shenzhen Special Economic Zone and its urban construction have an unusual significance for China. However, the prevailing emergence of urban parks built in a super speed in Shenzhen Special Economic Zone is not paid much attention by the academia regarding its historical process of construction. This study examines the history of urban park construction through dual lenses of "nation-state" and "global-local" with a hope to explore the genealogy and reason lying behind the local practice of urban park construction in Shenzhen Special Economic Zone from a transnational global perspective. The authors argue that the construction of urban parks in Shenzhen Special Economic Zone in the 1980s was closely related to foreign capital investment. Moreover, the national form adopted in park design during this period coincided with that of the special economic zones as a node of national rejuvenation. Relying on the global flow of ideas, this research attempts to provide interpretative view to comprehend the construction history of urban parks in China at the very beginning of the reform and opening. HIGHLIGHTS• Explores the relationship between urbanization, urban policy, and urban parks in the Shenzhen Special Economic Zone in the 1980s• Argues that the greening construction in Singapore significantly influenced the construction of urban parks in Shenzhen Special Economic Zone in the 1980s• Examines the formal representation of the nation-state in the design and conceptual genealogy of urban parks in Shenzhen Special Economic Zone

“…As the production, spread, development, and inheritance of the Bronze Drum are directly tied to Southeast Asians. Furthermore, this viewpoint is what annalists argue that history should encompass, in the words of Lucien Febvre, "all that belongs to, depend on, and serves humanity, everything that expresses humanity and explains its existence, activities, preferences, and ways" (Barraclough, 1991).…”

Glocalization of bronze drums in Southeast Asia: the case of bronze drums in state ceremonies of Thailand

View full text Add to dashboard Cite

The Bronze Drum is a living specimen of Southeast Asian culture and a testimony to the development of Southeast Asian societies for more than 2,000 years. The Bronze Drum has been inherited dynamically hitherto, and the Thai state ceremonies still adopt it. However, current scholarship on Bronze Drums is confined chiefly to static studies, which caused the omission of the essence of glocalization. This thesis adopts the theory of glocalization, namely that the Bronze Drum is the result of the interpenetration of the global and the local, resulting in unique outcomes in a specific geographic location, and then applies an interdisciplinary research methodology that draws on multiple lenses from Western, Chinese, and Thai sources. In addition to this, the theoretical framework of this thesis argues for the Southeast Asianness of the Bronze Drum and the cultural identity of Yunnan and Guangxi as one with Southeast Asia at the civilizational dimension. This study devotes to answering the question: how are the Bronze Drums used in state ceremonies of Thailand? Based on an analysis of the dynamic glocalization of the Ayutthaya dynasty and the Rattanakosin dynasty, this study finds that the bronze drum is used as a musical instrument in Thai state ceremonies, and is a symbol of fertility and represents one of the cornerstones of Thai society. Eventually, while answering the question, there is a theoretical vista for glocalization in broader Southeast Asian Studies.
