Buch. Condición: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -This book presents an analysis of a particular grammatical phenomenon in Northwestern Chinese, a.k.a. Northwestern Chinese dialects, uncovering a new pattern of contact-induced changes, which can be termed 'compromise innovation'. In the vast majority of Northwestern Chinese dialects, the imperfective marker Zhe, which behaves like a verb suffix in most Chinese dialects, exhibits a number of peculiar characteristics. The most prominent one is that it occurs in an unusual syntactic position where no verb suffix is expected to occur; i.e., it is placed after the object ('V+O+Zhe') rather than immediately following the verb ('V+Zhe+O'). Given that the grammaticalization of Zhe in Classical Chinese from a verb to an imperfective marker took place while Zhe was being used in the 'V+Zhe+O' structure, the 'V+O+Zhe' construction in Northwestern Chinese is likely the result of a more recent change. Furthermore, in a group of Northwestern Chinese dialects, there are various grammatical types of 'VP1+Zhe+VP2' constructions in which Zhe occurs at the end of VP1 to mark the syntactic dependency between VP1 and VP2. In this usage, Zhe is no longer an imperfective marker, but rather, similar to a converb marker. This phenomenon challenges the conventional view that Chinese is a typical verb-serializing language. The book argues that the grammatical peculiarity of Zhe in Northwestern Chinese is a result of syntactic change induced by the contact with the non-Han languages (i.e. non-Chinese) spoken in Northwest China, including Mongolic, Turkic and Tibetan languages. The 'V+O+Zhe' configuration, as the most distinctive phenomenon in this change, reflects a compromise between the two types of languages in contact: in such a configuration, the canonical VO order of Chinese is maintained, and meanwhile, by moving the verb suffix to the clause-final position, it also complies with the verb-final trait of the non-Han languages. In addition, there are many differences between Zhe in Northwestern Chinese dialects and the corresponding grammatical forms in non-Han languages in Northwest China. This indicates that the innovative evolution of Zhe in Northwestern Chinese faces certain constraints, and it is found that these constraints essentially stem from the inherent grammatical properties of the imperfective Zhe and various predicative structures in Chinese. The usages of Zhe discussed in this book vividly demonstrate the fact that the contact-induced change is a consequence of processes by which the 'external soil' of another language (i.e. source language) and the 'internal genes' of the native language (i.e. recipient language) compete against one another. This study may present an interesting case illuminating the very nature of language as a self-organizing and adaptive system, and refresh the linguistic typology community's perspective on grammatical changes induced by language contact. 279 pp. Englisch.

Buch. Condición: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -This book offers a comprehensive overview of graffiti culture in China, particularly through the example of graffiti in the Furong Tunnel at Xiamen University. It explores the complex relationship between graffiti as an art form and social behavior, focusing on its definition, legality, public space conflicts, sense of place, and interactions under management systems. Firstly, the book discusses the varyingdefinitions of graffiti in Western and Chinese contexts. Using the Furong Tunnel graffiti as a case study, it examines the line between artistic expression and vandalism, highlighting issues of legality, sense of place, and publicness. Secondly, it delves into the practice of graffiti in public spaces, particularly within Xiamen University. The graffiti in the Furong Tunnel has sparked debates about the conflict between educational and social functions, altering the tunnel's spatial form and function. It has become a focal point for conflicts between tourists and students, reflecting the complexity of campus space. The book also explores how graffiti constructs a sense of place and its associated social conflicts. By tracing the historical development of tunnel graffiti, it shows how graffiti becomes a collective memory and cultural symbol, serving as a medium for students to express emotions and construct local identities. Furthermore, the book addresses the legality of graffiti and the negotiation among actors under management systems. Although not legally considered a tourism resource, the university's stance is ambiguous, balancing strict regulations with using graffiti for publicity. Specific incidents of vandalism highlight conflicts between graffiti culture and campus management, discussing issues of protection and restoration. Lastly, the book examines ownership and management of graffiti. Conflicts over preservation and usage rights between students and tourists show the university's role as a coordinator. It emphasizes graffiti's importance in campus culture and as a promotional tool, while also noting that management measures might limit free expression, leading to homogenization concerns. Using multiple research methods, this book explores the social and political implications of graffiti, emphasizing the interactions and conflicts among stakeholders. It reveals the significance of graffiti in Chinese society and offers solutions to issues concerning graffiti culture in contemporary China. 121 pp. Englisch.

Buch. Condición: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -This book provides the first comprehensive explanation of Korea's 150 years of economic growth, from the opening of the ports to the present, based on consistently organized long-term statistics. The book also compares Korea's experience with that of other countries. During this period, Korea experienced major systemic transitions, from a traditional society to colonial rule, and after liberation, the division between North and South Korea. East Asian latecomer nations, including Korea, rapidly closed the gap with advanced countries through learning and adaptation following their opening to the world. The book uses Korea's case to demonstrate how institutional changes influence economic performance and explain the conditions under which rapid catch-up growth can occur or fail to occur. Korea's high growth was achieved under an authoritarian regime with state-led industrial policies. As the limitations of this model became evident, Korea transitioned to a private-sector-led approach, facing economic crises in the process. Economic growth led to the rise of a highly educated middle class. This, in turn, surfaced demands that had been suppressed under the authoritarian regime, paving the way for democratization. Social development and fairness, long overshadowed by economic growth, became key policy agendas. Following the 1997 Asian financial crisis, Korea has faced the dual challenges of slow growth and rising inequality, driving increased calls for income redistribution and the establishment of a Korean-style welfare state. The book is divided into two parts. Part 1 explores long-term trends in Korea's economic growth, comparing them with other countries. Part 2 provides a detailed, stage-by-stage analysis, highlighting the specific institutional and policy changes that shaped Korea's development. 347 pp. Englisch.
