This action funds Ian Rowen of the University of Colorado, Boulder to conduct a research project in the Social, Behavioral and Economic sciences area during the summer of 2013 at Fudan University in Shanghai, China. The project title is "Tourism and State Territory in 'Greater China.'" The host scientist is Yingzhi Guo.How is tourism reconfiguring "Greater China," and in particular, relations between the People's Republic of China (PRC) and Taiwan? Over 1 million Chinese tourists visited Taiwan in 2011, even though the PRC continues to point over 1000 ballistic missiles at what it considers a breakaway province. This marks a profound regional change, with direct tour arrivals from China only permitted to arrive in Taiwan starting in 2008 after decades of tension and travel bans. This ethnographic research project uses tourism as a lens to analyze spatial politics between the PRC and Taiwan, and to explore the relationship between tourism and state territoriality in general. Examining tourism in Taiwan sheds light on the political and cultural implications of the rapid development of China's outbound tourist market, soon to be the world's largest, with over 100 million annual visits overseas projected by 2019. Additionally, this project's theoretical framework brings tourism practice into larger discussions about state power and spatial practice. Broader impacts of an EAPSI fellowship include providing the Fellow a first-hand research experience outside the U.S.; an introduction to the science, science policy, and scientific infrastructure of the respective location; and an orientation to the society, culture and language. These activities meet the NSF goal to educate for international collaborations early in the career of its scientists, engineers, and educators, thus ensuring a globally aware U.S. scientific workforce. Furthermore, the Fellow will present the research to his associates at Fudan University, and collaborate on surveys and other research tools.

这一行动资助了科罗拉多大学博尔德分校的伊恩·罗文于2013年夏天在上海复旦大学开展了一个社会、行为和经济科学领域的研究项目，中国。项目名称为《大中国中的旅游与国境》。主持人郭英志，旅游业如何重构“大中国”，尤其是中国与台湾的关系？2011年，尽管中国继续将1000多枚弹道导弹对准它认为是分裂省份的台湾，但仍有超过100万大陆游客前往台湾旅游。这标志着一个深刻的地区变化，在经历了数十年的紧张局势和旅行禁令后，从2008年开始，中国直达台湾的游客才获准抵达台湾。这项民族志研究计画以观光为视角，分析大陆与台湾之间的空间政治，并探讨观光与国家版图之间的关系。考察台湾的旅游业，可以揭示中国出境旅游市场快速发展的政治和文化影响。不久，台湾出境旅游市场将成为世界上最大的市场，预计到2019年，每年将有超过1亿人次的海外游客。此外，该项目的理论框架将旅游实践带入了关于国家权力和空间实践的更大讨论中。EAPSI奖学金的更广泛影响包括为研究员提供美国以外的第一手研究经验；介绍各自所在地的科学、科学政策和科学基础设施；以及了解社会、文化和语言。这些活动符合NSF的目标，即在其科学家、工程师和教育工作者的职业生涯早期为国际合作进行教育，从而确保拥有一支具有全球意识的美国科学队伍。此外，这位研究员将向他在复旦大学的同事展示这项研究，并在调查和其他研究工具上进行合作。
