Public Health Initiatives

Recent historical investigation into the rise of ‘biopolitical modernity’ in China has shed some surprising light. While it was long thought that British public health initiatives entered China via Hong Kong, the recent work of Ruth Rogaski, Philippe Chemouilli and others has established that it was actually early Japanese colonialism that played the crucial role. It was the Meiji Empire's hygiene reform projects in Taiwan and Manchuria that provided the model for Republican China. Curiously overlooked by medical historians has been one of the major early works of Japanese public health that directly inspired and guided this colonial medical enterprise. This was that of the Japanese health reformer and colonial officer, Gotō Shinpei (1857–1929), and it was undertaken in Munich as a doctoral thesis under the supervision of Max von Pettenkofer. In this article, I focus on the way in which Shinpei dealt in his thesis with the relations between centralisation and local self-administration as one of the key issues facing hygienic modernisation and colonial biopolitical control.

This issue contains three research articles and one obituary, which of them includes “Self-Initiated Expatriates: Taiwanese Migrant Professionals in China’s Global Cities” by Jianbang Deng, “Cultural Adaptation of Taiwanese Female Marriage Migrants in Hong Kong” by Lan-Hung Nora Chiang and Chia-Yuan Huang, “Settling Across the Strait of Taiwan under Japanese Colonialism (1895–1945)” by Leo Douw, and his another paper “Arif Dirlik (1940–2017) Obituary.” These four papers were invited to submit to the Translocal Chinese editorial board after a small conference entitling “Research on Taiwanese Overseas Qiaomin (台灣海外僑民之研究)” at Soochow University on 19 January 2018, but only two of them was accepted after blind peer review. Douw’s articles later joined this issue, which constructs a significantly common topic for the three research papers—Taiwanese Migration to Mainland China in Different Ages. Deng’s paper explores how about the transformation of Taiwanese migrants into self-initiated expatriates in China’s global cities. Chiang and Huang explain how successful the Taiwanese female marriage migrants in Hong Kong despite their ever much difficulties. Douw tells the distinct identities between Registered Taiwanese (台灣籍民) in China and Taiwanese Huaqiao (台灣華僑) in Taiwan.

Japanese Colonialism

From their beginning in the seventeenth century, the migrations across the Strait of Taiwan took place between societies of the same ethnicity. This did not change by the cession of Taiwan to the Japanese Empire in 1895, but despite this, distinct migrant identities then emerged on both sides of the Strait. The new migrant regime in mainland China by Japan’s domineering position purposely privileged the Taiwanese who went there, and facilitated the activity of Taiwanese criminal gangs; this got them a bad name at the time, which persists in the existing, nationalist historiography. In Taiwan the new regime was exploitative and set the migrant workers from mainland China apart as foreigners; in doing so it created another migrant identity that is problematic for historians. This article contests this nationalist historiography, and shows, that for migrants to achieve a distinct identity, they need not be ethnically different from their host society.

The great ambition of Japanese colonialism, from the time of its debut at the end of the nineteenth century, was the reformulation of Chinese law and politics. One of the most extraordinary examples of this ambition is The Administrative Law of the Qing Empire [Shinkoku Gyōseihō], a monumental enterprise undertaken by the Japanese colonial government in Taiwan intended not only to facilitate Japanese colonial administration of Taiwan but also to reorder the entire politico‐juridical order of China along the lines of modern rational law. This article examines the legal analysis embraced in The Administrative Law of the Qing Empire and recounts its attempt to reconstruct the Qing's “political law” (seihō) by a strange, ambiguous, and hybrid resort to “authenticity.” The strangeness of this Japanese colonial production comes from Japan's dual position as both colonizer of Taiwan and simultaneously itself colonized by “modern European jurisprudence”(kinsei hōri). In uncovering the effects of modern European jurisprudence on the Japanese enterprise, we will discover Japan's pursuit of its own cultural subjectivity embedded in The Administrative Law of the Qing Empire, epitomizing the campaign of national identities observable in the process of East Asian legal modernization.
