【禁闻】欧中协会揭“孔子学院”审查和偷窃

【新唐人2014年08月13日讯】日前,“欧洲中国研究协会”发表报告,指称中国“孔子学院”的总干事、“中国国家汉语国际推广领导小组”办公室主任许琳,上个月在葡萄牙举行会议时,偷窃和审查会议的学术材料。有美国媒体建议设有“孔子学院”的美国大学的校长们,好好细读这份报告,然后公开解释为什么“孔子学院”还需要存在。

美国《华尔街日报》8月7号援引“欧洲中国研究协会”8月1号的报告内容,指称7月22号抵达葡萄牙会议现场的许琳认定,有些教授的论文“有违中国的规定”,而且她“绝对不能接受”会议手册中有另一赞助机构——与台湾相关的“蒋经国基金会”。

于是许琳“下令她的随从立刻弄走会议场所的所有材料”,两天之后,她才发还这些材料,但她撕去了她不喜欢的内容。

报导说,“欧洲中国研究学会”主席、瑞典“隆德大学东方与东南亚研究中心”主任罗杰•吉莱特(Roger Greatrex)下令,把被撕去的内容重新付印,然后又教训“孔子学院”的领导说:“如此干预一个独立而又民主的非牟利学术团体所办的国际性会议,是完全不能接受的。”

旅美中国学者陈奎德:“孔子学院这个东西,实际上和孔子本身没有什么关系,它是借孔子这个名来做一些汉语教学,但是在中间塞一些意识形态的和全世界的普世价值相对抗的一套价值出去的话,这个东西我觉得是相当值得警惕。”

亲眼目睹这场闹剧的中国学者彭小华在香港《共识网》刊文说,当时与会的汉学家们觉得瞠目,议论纷纷,认为中共当局、和“汉办”、及“孔子学院”的言、行相背离。

实际上,这种闹剧在遍布120个国家的1100所“孔子学院”中普遍存在。2009年,美国“马里兰大学”的“孔子学院”安排了中共外交官给学生上课,把西藏达赖喇嘛妖魔化。“孔子学院”还鼓励教师们进行自我审查,如果讨论“天安门屠杀”、“台独”及中共领导人巨大财富这些话题,就会失去大笔经费。

2009年掌管中共意识形态的前政治局常委李长春在讲话中宣称:“孔子学院”是中共海外宣传的一个重要部分。

一位曾在情报单位工作过的美国学者私下表示,不排除“孔子学院”负有监视中国留学师、生的任务,美国不至于天真的以为“孔子学院”只搞学术。

《华尔街日报》在文章中表示,感谢“欧洲中国研究学会”实话实说,还建议设有“孔子学院”的美国大学的校长们,好好细读这份报告,然后公开解释为什么“孔子学院”还需要存在。

在此之前,旅美中国前篮球队员陈凯曾前往美国国会作证,他揭露中共当局在国外办的“孔子学院、孔子学堂”,违背了中国古代教育家“孔子”重视教育的本意,反而成了镇压人们思想的宣传工具,颠覆人们的价值观。

旅美中国前篮球队员陈凯:“一个自由的学术风气,你怎么会允许专制机构在这设立他的教材?他不但这个教材里,不能提中国的文化大革命,不能提天安门(屠杀)事件,不能提法轮功,不能提反右,所以你把美丽史带到美国的学院来,这不是一个洗脑吗?”

陈凯表示,中共把伪造的历史带到国际上,其实是在发挥着中共对外渗透和精神洗脑的作用。他呼吁,国际共同抵制中共洗脑,把“孔子学院”赶出各国的校园。

今年5月,美国100多名大学教授发起联署,呼吁美国学校中止与中共“汉办”合作开办“孔子学院”﹔而加拿大“麦马斯特大学”,曾因“孔子学院”跟教师的合约,禁止法轮功信仰,被投诉到安大略省人权法院,最终跟“孔子学院”解约。

“欧洲中国研究协会”这次也就“孔子学院”对学术自由的恐吓方式,拉响了警报,暑假结束时,大学校长和学校校董们要就此事件做出解释。

European Association for Chinese Studies Exposes
Confucius Institute’s Interference

The European Association of Chinese Studies (EACS)
has issued a report alleging that the Confucius Institute’s (CI)
Director General, Xu Lin, who’s also the director of Hanban,
the Chinese National Office for Teaching Chinese,
reviewed and stole academic material
during a conference in Portugal last month.

Some U.S. media suggested to the university presidents
to review this report and publicly explain
why the CIs need to continue to exist.

On August 7, Wall Street Journal quoted the August 1 report
by the EACS and said that after Xu arrived at the conference
on July 22 in Portugal, she couldn’t accept the participation
of the Chiang Ching-kuo Foundation, a Taiwan related
sponsor, and some professor’s papers contrary to Chinese rule.

So Xu ordered her entourage to “immediately remove
all the conference materials from the conference venue."
Two days later, Xu brought the materials back
after removing several pages.

The report said Roger Greatrex, the EACS chair and director
of the East and Southeast Asia Research Centre at Sweden’s
Lund University, ordered that the pages be re-printed.

It quoted Greatrex as saying: “Such interference in the internal organization of the international conference of an independent
and democratically organized non-profitable
academic organization is totally unacceptable."

Chen Kuide, U.S.-based Chinese scholar:
“CIs have nothing to do with Confucius.

They just teach Chinese language in the name of Confucius.

But it also inserts some ideological content that runs contrary
to universal values, which is what we need to watch out for."

Chinese scholar Peng Xiaohua, who witnessed the events,
published an article in Hong Kong-based news website
Gongshi that the participants were so shocked and thought
that the words of the Chinese Communist Party (CCP),
Hanban and the CIs deviate from their actions.

In fact, such farce is very common
among the 1,100 CIs in 120 countries.

In 2009, the CI at the University of Maryland arranged
diplomats to teach class and demonized the Dalai Lama.

The CIs also encourage teachers to self-censor.

If teachers discuss topics such as the Tiananmen Square
massacre, Taiwan’s independence or the great wealth of CCP
leaders, they will lose large sums of money.

Politburo Standing Committee member Li Changchun,
who was in charge of CCP ideology, said in 2009,
“CIs are an important part of the CCP’s overseas propaganda."

A U.S. scholar who used to work in an intelligence unit said
privately that CIs might also be responsible for monitoring
Chinese students and teachers, and that the United States
isn’t so naïve as to think that CIs are only about academics.

The Wall Street Journal thanked the EACS in the article for
telling the truth and suggests a careful review of the report
to explain the reason for the CI’s continued existence.

Prior to this, former Chinese-American basketball player
Chen Kai testified before U.S. Congress that what the CIs
promote is contrary to the intentions of Confucius,
and his teachings on paying attention on education.

Chen says it has become a propaganda tool used to suppress
people’s thinking and undermine the people’s values.

Chen Kai: “How could you allow an autocratic organization
to issue its textbooks in a free country’s academic campus?

It doesn’t allow to mention of China’s Cultural Revolution,
the Tiananmen Square massacre, Falun Gong
or the anti-rightist movement in the textbooks.

Isn’t bringing brainwashing into U.S. colleges?"

Chen says that the CCP in fact plays a infiltrating and spiritual
brainwashing role by using fake history in international schools.

He’s calling for countries to together drive the CIs
off campuses globally and to boycott the CCP’s brainwashing.

This May, more than 100 university professors launched a
signature campaign to call on U.S. colleges to end
co-operation with the CCP’s Hanban on CIs.

McMaster University in Canada terminated its contract
with its CI because of the contract the CI made its teachers
sign, prohibiting them from practicing Falun Gong.

The CI’s threatening manner on academic freedom
also set off an alarm for the EACS.

At the end of the summer, the university presidents
and the School Board need to explain on the issue.
