In the first section of this paper, it will examine the view that any cultural appropriation is morally objectionable as long as the majority-minority relation is present. Next, it will consider the argument made by James Young that not all cultural appropriation are morally objectionable, at least in the field of art. Young points out the existence of the “Aesthetic Handicap Thesis” (AHT), or the biases held toward cultural outsiders that lead to the view that their creation involving cultural properties must be inferior to that of the cultural insiders. Young argues against the validity of AHT and justifies cultural appropriation in the case of “innovative appropriation”, or appropriation done in the way that creates new artistic value, by saying that the inappropriateness of the act could be counterbalanced by the new value created. While this argument can justify the works of great artists like Picasso and Shakespeare that involved cultural appropriation, the absence in clear definition of ‘innovative’ could allow any artwork in the future involving cultural appropriation to justify itself by arguing that its appropriation is an ‘innovative’ one. Finally, the paper will attempt to suggest a view that could complement such weakness in Young’s argument.","PeriodicalId":340155,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of ‏The 4th International Academic Conference on Humanities and Social Sciences","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-09-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130903110","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Hakka themselves welcomed this recognition and were proud to be subsumed into the Han majority. Thus, Hakka have gradually been silenced and actively silenced their own Hakka identity under the influence of Han nationalism by the Nationalist government in order to fight against the evasion from the Western imperial power. Moreover, after the establishment of the People’s Republic of China in 1949, the ethnic policies decided that only fifty six ‘nationalities’ (ethnic groups) were officially recognised. Hakka was not included but subsumed into the Han permanently. However, the concept of Han is anything but primordial and the cultural diversities within are gradually disappearing due to China’s ethnic policies. Since 1980s, there was a revival of Hakka studies and led to an increase in Hakka museums and heritage sites. Hakka culture was celebrated and welcomed. Under this circumstance, as a Hakka descendant myself, I found this confusing in term of my own Hakka identity. Thus, I adopt the autoethnographic approach to work with my own visits to a few Hakka museums and heritage sites to explore my feelings of being a Hakka in this contemporary world. My study benefits from this methodology to enable me as a researcher to examine the nuances of Hakka identity.","PeriodicalId":340155,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of ‏The 4th International Academic Conference on Humanities and Social Sciences","volume":"9 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-09-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"123736232","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
