SUMMARY:Logic of Constructing and Maintaining the Grand Canal in North Chin
 a: Jining’s Water Conservancy Projects\,1289-1855
DESCRIPTION:\n	Sun Jinghao (Professor\, School of Humanities\, Zhejiang Uni
 versity\; HYI Visiting Scholar)\n	Chair/discussant: Zhang Ling (Assistant 
 Professor\, History Department\, Boston College)\n\n	Co-sponsored by the F
 airbank Center for Chinese Studies\n\n\n	The Jining region of western Shan
 dong experienced vast environmental change due to the construction\, refur
 bishment and maintenance of a series of water conservancy works from the l
 ate thirteenth to the mid-nineteenth century. These hydraulic projects wer
 e designed to steadily remake local natural conditions to create a solid i
 nfrastructural foundation for the operation of the Grand Canal. Meanwhile\
 , the state’s utmost will of Grand Canal transportation through these in
 frastructural works and their mechanical functioning interacted with local
  initiatives\, as in the Jining region. The state confined the direction o
 f regional geospatial and ecological transformation\, and the drastic envi
 ronmental changes affected institutions\, groups and individuals in the sp
 ecific political economic nexus\, shown in local cultural and religious de
 monstrations.
