had a very nice time guest teaching on Chinese organizational culture and how it affects foreign policy tonight. a couple more slides since people enjoyed the last one.
At a mid-size State-owned enterprise, there are specialist staff that work across multiple departments, and are necessary for the daily function of the business. When one of the staff is absent due to illness or vacation, the procedure to cover them is this: they tell their section chief, their section chief tells the boss, the boss tells another section chief to provide a specialist to cover them, the section chief tells that specialist.

A newcomer proposes a board hung in public where the names of people off that day can be written, and everyone can clearly see who is covering them. It is immediately rejected. Why? The Detroit city government is attempting to build trade and business ties with Hebei. A key document must be stamped by three different officials at a single meeting. The officials work in the same building. Why does getting the meeting take months? In 2014, the Sunflower Movement explodes in Taiwan, driving a wave of anti-mainland politics that continues to this day. Beijing has a Taiwan Affairs Office which maintains an extensive intelligence network in Taiwan, and Taiwan’s politics are open and widely covered. Why is Beijing blindsided by Sunflower?

a fun thing from a class I'm guest teaching tomorrow: which of these will turn out OK for you, and which will be a disaster? (they're all from a single Chinese city between 2010 and 2022)

The worst thing about the current historical moment is that in 200 years some smug revisionist historian is going to give a conference paper on how the politics of the 2020s really were entirely rational and a sensible response to material conditions at the time.

If you want to deter escalation you have to impose costs. Otherwise you signal there are no costs for escalating further. Fear of escalation has to go both ways if you want to avoid it and clearly the Russians aren’t afraid enough.

Every version of this story is some version of ‘well you couldn’t expect me to be able to afford to buy the house I currently own’ and yes that is the point welcome to the housing crisis.

R. H. Bing (October 20, 1914 – April 28, 1986)[1] was an American mathematician who worked mainly in the areas of geometric topology and continuum theory. Bing's father was named Rupert Henry, but Bing's mother thought that "Rupert Henry" was too British for Texas. Thus she compromised by abbreviating it to R. H.[5] Consequently, R. H. does not stand for a first or middle name. When Bing was applying for a visa, he was requested not to use initials. He explained that his name was really "R-only H-only Bing", and ended up receiving a visa made out to "Ronly Honly Bing".
