You do not have permission to edit this page, for the following reasons:

This IP address has been blocked from editing Wikipedia.
This does not affect your ability to read Wikipedia pages.
Most people who see this message have done nothing wrong. Some kinds of blocks restrict editing from specific service providers or telecom companies in response to recent abuse or vandalism, and can sometimes affect other users who are unrelated to that abuse. Review the information below for assistance if you do not believe that you have done anything wrong.

The IP address or range 54.163.0.0/16 has been blocked (disabled) by ‪Blablubbs‬ for the following reason(s):

The IP address that you are currently using has been blocked because it is believed to be a web host provider or colocation provider. To prevent abuse, web hosts and colocation providers may be blocked from editing Wikipedia.
You will not be able to edit Wikipedia using a web host or colocation provider because it hides your IP address, much like a proxy or VPN.
We recommend that you attempt to use another connection to edit. For example, if you use a proxy or VPN to connect to the internet, turn it off when editing Wikipedia. If you edit using a mobile connection, try using a Wi-Fi connection, and vice versa. If you are using a corporate internet connection, switch to a different Wi-Fi network. If you have a Wikipedia account, please log in.
If you do not have any other way to edit Wikipedia, you will need to request an IP block exemption.

How to appeal if you are confident that your connection does not use a colocation provider's IP address:
If you are confident that you are not using a web host, you may appeal this block by adding the following text on your talk page: ((unblock|reason=Caught by a colocation web host block but this host or IP is not a web host. My IP address is _______. Place any further information here. ~~~~)). You must fill in the blank with your IP address for this block to be investigated. Your IP address can be determined here. Alternatively, if you wish to keep your IP address private you can use the unblock ticket request system. There are several reasons you might be editing using the IP address of a web host or colocation provider (such as if you are using VPN software or a business network); please use this method of appeal only if you think your IP address is in fact not a web host or colocation provider.

Administrators: The IP block exemption user right should only be applied to allow users to edit using web host in exceptional circumstances, and requests should usually be directed to the functionaries team via email. If you intend to give the IPBE user right, a CheckUser needs to take a look at the account. This can be requested most easily at SPI Quick Checkuser Requests. Unblocking an IP or IP range with this template is highly discouraged without at least contacting the blocking administrator.

This block will expire on 17:28, 10 March 2024.

Even when blocked, you will usually still be able to edit your user talk page, as well as email administrators and other editors.

For information on how to proceed, please read the FAQ for blocked users and the guideline on block appeals. The guide to appealing blocks may also be helpful.

'''Ray Huang''' (((zh|t=黃仁宇|p=Huáng Rényǔ)); 25 June 1918((snd))8 January 2000) was a [[Chinese-American]] [[historian]] and [[philosopher]] who was an officer in the [[National Revolutionary Army]] and fought in the [[Burma Campaign]]. In 1964, Huang earned a Ph.D. in history from the [[University of Michigan]]. He worked with [[Joseph Needham]] and was a contributor to Needham's ''[[Science and Civilisation in China]]''. Huang taught history at universities in the US and the UK, and he is best known in his later years for the idea of [[macro-history]].

==Early life==
Ray Huang was born in [[Ningxiang]], [[Hunan Province]], in 1918.<ref name="黄仁宇 " /> He was the oldest of three children. His father, Huang Zhenbai (((lang|zh-Hans|黄震白))), was an early member of the revolutionary group [[Tongmenghui]] but became less active in the group over the years. Ray Huang grew up in Hunan and went on to study [[electrical engineering]] at [[Nankai University]], [[Tianjin]], in 1936. At the outbreak of the [[Second Sino-Japanese War]] in 1938, he returned to [[Changsha]] and wrote for the ''Anti-Japanese War Report'' (((lang|zh|《抗日战报》))).

Soon afterwards, Huang entered the [[Whampoa Military Academy|Republic of China Military Academy]] (((lang|zh-Hant|中華民國陸軍官校))) at [[Chengdu]], [[Sichuan]], and graduated in 1940. He was appointed a [[Second Lieutenant]] Platoon Leader in 1941 and was posted as a staff [[First Lieutenant]] stationed in [[India]] in 1942. He then was a Staff [[Major (rank)|Major]] in the [[New First Army]] in the [[China Burma India Theater of World War II|Burma Theater]] from 1943 to 1945. While in Burma, he was shot through the thigh but made a complete recovery. After the war he attended the [[United States Army Command and General Staff College|US Army Staff College]], graduated in 1947, and was aide-de-camp to the head of the Chinese military delegation participating in the [[Allied occupation of Japan]] from 1949 to 1950. However, with the loss of [[Mainland China]] in 1949, the Nationalist Army in Taiwan was purged of political opponents in 1950. Huang's superior in [[Japan]] was accused of Communist links and so Huang was discharged from the Nationalist Army in 1950, which ended his military career.

==Academic career==
Huang went to the United States to study [[Chinese history]]. At the [[University of Michigan]], he received his [[bachelor's degree]] in 1954, his [[master's degree]] in 1957, and his [[doctorate]] in 1964. He was appointed visiting [[associate professor]] at [[Columbia University]] in 1967, and a [[professor]] at the [[State University of New York]], New Paltz Branch, from 1968 to 1980. He was a research fellow at the [[Fairbank Center for Chinese Studies|Fairbank Center for East Asian Research]] at Harvard in 1970.

He worked with the leading American [[Sinologist]] [[John K. Fairbank]]. Nevertheless, Huang and Fairbank disagreed in research methodology. Fairbank liked concentrated analysis in short time frames and limited areas, but Huang liked synthesis covering broad time periods (though Huang's classic work ''[[1587, a Year of No Significance]]'' had a very tight focus).

In 1972, Huang went to [[Cambridge University]] and assisted [[Joseph Needham]], who was more sympathetic to Huang's research approach, in Needham's monumental work on the history of Chinese science and technology. Huang's chosen field of study became financial administration in [[Ming China]], and he published one of his major works, ''Taxation and Finance in Sixteenth Century Ming China'', in 1974 (translated into Chinese only in 2001).

Huang returned to Cambridge in the mid-1970s and contributed two chapters to the Ming Dynasty Volumes of ''[[The Cambridge History of China]]''. Around the late 1970s, he retired from teaching and focused on writing instead and even occasionally contributed to a column in ''[[Yazhou Zhoukan]]''. Nonetheless, he often travelled to [[Taiwan]] even after his retirement to give lectures and participate in various academic exchanges.

His other works include ''The War in Northern Burma'' (1946), ''1587, a Year of No Significance'' (1981) (also published in Chinese as ''The Fifteenth Year of Wan Li''/[[:zh:萬曆十五年|《萬曆十五年》]], 1985), ''Broadening the Chinese Field of Vision'' (in Chinese, 1988), ''Chinese Macrohistory'' (1988) (in Chinese 1993), ''Conversations about Chinese History on the Banks of the Hudson River'' (in Chinese 1989), ''Discussions of Here and There and Old and New'' (in Chinese 1991), ''Capitalism and the Twenty First Century'' (in Chinese 1991), ''From a Macrohistory Perspective in Reading Jiang Jieshi's Diary'' (in Chinese 1993), ''Contemporary Chinese Outlets'' (in Chinese 1994), ''The Affair of Wan Chong'' (in Chinese 1998), ''Yellow River Blue Mountain: Record of Huang Renzi's Recollections'' (in Chinese 2001), and ''Bianjing Unfinished Dreams''.

==Personal life==
Huang married Gayle Bates (1937–2000) in 1966. The two had a son, Jefferson, a longtime administrator at [[Claremont McKenna College]],<ref>((Cite web|url=https://www.cmc.edu/admission/admission-and-financial-aid-staff|title=Meet Our Admission Officers &#124; Claremont McKenna College))</ref> as well as two other sons from his wife's previous marriage.<ref>((cite web| url = https://www.legacy.com/obituaries/jacksonsun/obituary.aspx?n=gayle-huang&pid=144661905| title = Gayle Huang Obituary (2000) - Beech Bluff, TN - The Jackson Sun| website = [[Legacy.com]]))</ref> Huang died of a [[heart attack]] in 2000.
