Outline of Final Research Achievements

In contrast to most of the existing literature on environmental governance, which usually discusses China’s urban industrial sector, this project focused on the environmental problems experienced in modern Chinese villages, particularly its effects on traditional Chinese society. Choosing Daobei village, Pingyao county in the central part of Shanxi province as the main research location, we conducted fieldwork in cooperation and collaboration with the Research Center for Chinese Social History at Shanxi University. This fieldwork consisted of interviews with villagers and the collection of official documents and papers in relation to individual villagers, which is referred to as the “village archive.” We also compiled a list and photo archive of collected materials in order to ensure that the data could be shared and accessed by the project members. In addition, by holding a symposium and an open seminar with Chinese scholars, we were able to present our findings to the public.
