Join us for a free one-day workshop for educators at the Japanese American National Museum, hosted by the USC U.S.-China Institute and the National Consortium for Teaching about Asia. This workshop will include a guided tour of the beloved exhibition Common Ground: The Heart of Community, slated to close permanently in January 2025. Following the tour, learn strategies for engaging students in the primary source artifacts, images, and documents found in JANM’s vast collection and discover classroom-ready resources to support teaching and learning about the Japanese American experience.
Chen, Titus (Chih-Chieh)
2008 - 2009 Research Associate, US-China Institute
University of Southern California
Titus Chen completed his PhD in Political Science at the University of California at Irvine. In his dissertation titled “Capped Socialization: Examining the Effectiveness of US Engagement in China’s Legal Reform,” Chen investigates episodes of Sino-Western contention in different times and sheds light on the role of global norm diffusion in the transformation of Sino-Western legal and political relationships. Chen plans to convert his PhD dissertation into publishable journal articles, and to begin a project that bears upon the institutional development of international human rights regimes. Chen looks to the wielding of soft power in US-China relations as a prime subject of analysis in both tasks. Future proposed projects also include looking at the evolution of US policy on China's human rights and also examining the relative influence of US and China in the UN human rights regimes.
