Located in the nexus of two critical junctures-the “long 1960s” in the US United States and the collapse of nationalist mythology of the Kuomintang government-the Taiwanese movement for the protection of the Diaoyutai iIslands promoted a new narrative on Chinese national identity. The symbolism ascribed to the disputed islands was rather diverse, but the dominant, left-leaning part of the movement used the disputed islands to reproduce the Kuomintang- created narrative on national humiliation, while replacing the Republic of China with the People’s Republic of China as the center of Chinese national subjectivity. In post-democratization Taiwan, this narrative gained a new political meaning, becoming an integral part of the legitimation strategy deployed by pro-unification political forces.

The purpose of the article is to provide general background information about two national classification systems (CS), about which there have been practically no publications in Russian professional literature. The author gives the definition of national CS, adopted by the International Society for Knowledge Organization (ISKO) and talks about the typology categories of CS. The first part considers the Library Classification of the People's Republic of China (CLC). The history of its creation, the available variants and publications are sequentially analized. The distribution boundaries of CLC are shown, its structure and features are considered. CLC is a completely original system created by Chinese experts. The second part of the article analyzes the Decimal Classification of the Republic of Korea (KDC). Widespread in the world of DDC schedules were taken as the basis of the KDC many years ago. Some of the main classes were used unchanged, while others were completely rearranged so that Korea and Korean language were in the first places in the schedules. Similar changes were made to the religion class. KDC has only one option (the last 6th edition is in 3 volumes). It is considered national, but not used in all scientific libraries in South Korea. Knowledge of the classification practices of foreign countries is an indisputable indicator of our classification culture.

Abstract In 2018 the government of the Republic of China (roc) on Taiwan elevated certain Chinese languages, Taiwanese Indigenous languages, and Taiwan Sign Language to the status of national languages, seemingly marking the latest stage in an evolution of language education policy away from the long-standing focus on Mandarin. This paper analyses this evolution by comparing approaches to language education policy in contemporary Taiwan with those in the People’s Republic of China (prc). It focuses on how notions of multiculturalism, deployed to legitimate policy, have taken on different meanings in these divergent political contexts. I argue that in both the prc and Taiwan, multiculturalism primarily signifies symbolic recognition of minority and non-dominant languages, involving limited redistribution of power. The continued centrality of Mandarin reflects the powerful legacy in both the roc and the prc of discourses of national identity centred around Han Chineseness, despite significant differences in the deployment of multicultural rhetoric.
