Podcasts about Mark Frazier

Efforts to normalize relations between India and China signal a potential shift in one of Asia's most complex rivalries. As both countries navigate de-escalation efforts while advancing competing strategic interests and structural issues remain, we will examine the geopolitical calculus behind the apparent thaw and its implications for regional security. How will these developments shape India's engagement with China, the Quad, and the broader Indo-Pacific balance?  At this critical juncture, on March 18, 2025, Mark Frazier sat down with Manjari Chatterjee Miller and Liu Zongyi to evaluate the strategic dimensions of this evolving relationship. They discussed its potential effects on regional security, the power equilibrium in the Indo-Pacific, and the roles of important mini-lateral groupings like BRICS and the Quad.   About the speakers

Mark Frazier, author of The Power of Place: Contentious Politics in Twentieth-Century Shanghai and Bombay, talks to NCUSCR Vice President Jan Berris about his new book and the two cities that form its comparative poles. Mr. Frazier discusses the history of contentious politics in Shanghai and Mumbai, both of which were national economic, cultural, and political hubs of their respective countries throughout the twentieth century. He also reflects on his experiences conducting research, working with the municipal governments, and engaging with residents in both locations.   On October 3, 2019, Mark Frazier presented his book at a National Committee event in New York City.

What do patterns of political contention look like? Over the course of the twentieth century, protests and social movements in Shanghai and Bombay changed with the commodification of urban land. In his new book, The Power of Place: Contentious Politics in Twentieth-Century Shanghai and Bombay, Mark Frazier examines changes in political geographies and patterns of popular protest in the two cities, analyzing debates over ideology, citizenship, and political representation, and comparing clashes over housing, jobs, policing, and public space. On October 3, 2019, Dr. Mark Frazier presented his analysis, updating his findings with comparison to the recent protests in Hong Kong.

Aging Gracefully When we interviewed Mary Rather NP, on what her advice to aging gracefully is based on her 20+ years experience in hospitals and acute adult care nursing homes she gave very simple answers to the complex problem of aging. Her formula for aging gracefully was to exercise 3 or more days per week, get your nutrition in check, go see your Chiropractor, and learn how to deal with stress.  Her personal mantra is “anything is possible”, “I’ve beaten cancer and diabetes through a mind over matter approach and taking small, manageable steps every day that lead towards a healthier future.” There are very few negatives about aging if you really think about it. The experience, knowledge, and the resilience gained through years of trials and tribulation should be enough to make you look forward to aging. Aging with a negative mindset can only serve to fuel pessimistic behavior and mindset. Instead of worrying about the woes of aging, we should be proud of the physical and emotional attacks that come from a life that you have survived. Through good luck or good genes (even bad genes) or both, the old have dodged fatal accidents, premature disease, and other things that kill the young. You are stronger, and you get to live longer. Aging is the one disease that will affect virtually every person on the planet.  The real trick in treating aging is doing it with grace and style because there is no treatment for it.  With it being impossible to prevent effects of time on the body, there are silver linings to be found. It should be pointed out that aging is inevitable, so why let it bog you down? Accept the inevitable changes of aging, rather than seeing them as aberrant crises. During the course of his career, Illinois psychologist Mark Frazier, PsyD, has worked with thousands of older people ages 65 to 105.  Again and again, he has seen an important key to psychological health: accepting that your life won't stay the same. Aging changes everyone and if you don't have important things out in front of you, there is enough about the aging process that is not positive and you can get caught up in what you don't like about it. Part of the challenge of aging gracefully is that you have to continue to find things that are important to you. Continue to find meaning in life. One way to succeed at this is to plan for purposeful activities before you retire. Plan that vacation you have always been talking about, plan to pursue your life’s dreams and ambitions.  You have a wonderful opportunity to reinvent yourself after retirement, do it! It should be a transition. It shouldn't be, 'Stop work one day and fall off a cliff.' With this new found free time, fill your life with passion. Maybe this is taking up that hobby you’ve always had an interest in, but never enough time to actually pursue. It could be exercising more, learning to cook, gardening, hiking, pleasure reading, or practicing meditation and mindfulness. You are also never too old to set goals.  I don’t subscribe to that old adage “you can’t teach an old dog new tricks”. That does not seem fair to those who are open-minded about learning new things and growing. You may never be able to beat your personal best time in that turkey trot 5k race when you were 40 years old, but you can still train to set a new personal best at age 70. Without goals, you can fall into a woe-is-me way of thinking.  I’ll never be like I once was, I’ll never be who I once was. It’s true. If you were the same person you were 40 years ago have you become better?

We round out the week with a of a random inconsequential tangent about chivalry set against a thriving metropolitan background. It kinda sucks, but you're not surprised by that at this point.

Last month China held a major international forum on its Belt and Road Initiative, the first of its kind since Beijing announced the project in 2013. Drawing official delegations, scholars, entrepreneurs, as well as representatives from financial institutions and media organizations from 130 nations, the forum was an important step in China’s drive to develop infrastructure and connectivity along the “Belt and Road Corridors” from China to Africa, Europe, South and Southeast Asia. Though many important details about the initiative remain unclear, foreign businesses are already vying for opportunities to join the initiative, and their excitement was primed by President’s Xi Jinping’s promise at the Forum to raise tens of billions of dollars in new financing. The event generated some concern about whether actual profits and benefits will match expectations. From the perspectives both of recipient countries and investors, the Belt and Road Initiative represents huge potential and significant risk. Amid the enthusiasm and apprehension surrounding the project, a robust dialogue and accurate information are critical. In support of this, the National Committee and the India China Institute of the New School hosted a delegation of financial and economic scholars led by the director general of the International Finance Department of the China Development Bank, Mr. Liang Huijiang, to discuss the May 2017 Belt and Road Forum on June 20, 2017 with moderator Mark Frazier, professor of politics and director of the New School’s India-China Institute. Mr. Liang Huijiang is director general of the International Finance Department of the China Development Bank (CDB). He oversees strategy and policy making of the bank’s international business operations as well as cooperation with national and multilateral development banks.  He also manages an overseas loan portfolio of over USD 300 billion, and is instrumental in expanding the bank’s global network. From 2005 to 2009, Mr. Liang was deputy director general of the bank’s Treasury Department, playing a key role in building a professional team for the bank’s liquidity and investment portfolios as it reached several milestones in overseas bond offerings and underwritings. Between 1998 and 2003 Mr. Liang was special assistant to Mr. Chen Yuan, then president of the CDB. In that capacity, he was in charge of developing strategies as the CDB transformed itself from a semi-government agency into a market-oriented bank. Before joining CDB, Mr. Liang worked in the International Department of the People’s Bank of China, where he was involved in annual consultations between China and the IMF and reform of China’s exchange rate regime. Mr. Liang holds a master’s degree in finance from the London Business School (2004), a master’s in economics from the PBC School of Finance, Tsinghua University (1996), and a bachelor’s degree in economics from Hangzhou University (1993). Dr. Wang Wen is a professor and executive dean of the Chongyang Institute for Financial Studies at Renmin University of China.

As a leading think tank professional since 2013, Dr. Wang was named a “2014 Top Ten Figures of Chinese Think Tanks,” and a “2015 China Reform and Development Pioneer.” Dr. Wang worked as chief op-ed editor and editorial writer at Global Times before 2012, and won a China News Awards in 2011. He has written and edited over 20 books including Think as a Tank; Anxiety of the U.S.; Visions of the Great Powers; 2016: G20 and China; Theories of World Governance: A Study in the History of Ideas; and The G20 and Global Governance. Dr. Zha Daojiong is a professor of international political economy at the School of International Studies, Peking University, where he holds concurrent appointments in the University’s Institute of South-South Cooperation and International Development and Institute of Ocean Research. He specializes in studying non-traditional security issues in China’s foreign relations, including energy, food, public health, and transboundary water management. His recent research interests have expanded to political risk management for Chinese investments overseas. Professor Zha has served as Arthur Ross Fellow at the Center on US-China Relations of the Asia Society in New York, as the inaugural Rio Tinto China Fellow at the Lowy Institute for International Policy in Sydney, and as senior research fellow at the Rajaratnam School of International Studies, Nanyang Technological University in Singapore. He is also a member of the China chapter of the Council for Security Cooperation in the Asia Pacific, and a senior advisor to the Chinese Association for International Understanding. He is an active participant in the National Committee’s longstanding track II economic dialogue. Professor Zha has written and edited seven academic books, in addition to dozens of journal articles. He taught in Japan for six years and holds a doctoral degree in political science from the University of Hawaii at Manoa and the East-West Center.   Dr. Zhai Kun is a professor at the School of International Studies, Peking University, and director of the Center for Global Interconnectivity Studies, Peking University.  Dr. Zhai was formerly director of the Institute of World Political Studies (2011-2014) and director of South and Southeast Asian and Oceania Studies (2007-2011) at the China Institutes of Contemporary International Relations (CICIR).
