Maintaining education as a pedagogical space for human formation,
this book is distinctive in looking at the crisis rather than the
success of Chinese education. The editors and contributors, mostly
overseas and mainland Chinese scholars, argue that modern Chinese
education has been built upon a superficial and instrumental
embrace of Western modernity and a fragmented appropriation of
Chinese cultural heritage. They call for a rethinking and
re-envisioning of Chinese education, grounded in and enriched by
various cultural traditions and cross-cultural dialogues. Drawing
on Chinese history and culture, Western and Chinese philosophies,
curriculum and pedagogical theories, the collected volume analyzes
(1) why education as person-making has failed to take root in
contemporary China, (2) how the purpose of education has changed
during the process of China's modernization, and (3) what a
rediscovery of the meaning of person-making implies for rethinking
and re-envisioning Chinese education in the current age of
globalization and social change. Re-envisioning Chinese Education:
The meaning of person-making in a new age discusses among other
issues: China's Historical Encounter with the West and Modern
Chinese Education Rediscover Lasting Values: Confucian Cultural
Learning Models in the Twenty-first Century Rethinking and
Re-envisioning Chinese Didactics: Implications from the German
Didaktik Tradition The New Basic Education and the Development of
Human Subjectivity: A Chinese Experience This book will be relevant
for scholars, researchers, and policy makers everywhere who seek a
more balanced, more sophisticated, and philosophically better
grounded understanding of Chinese education.
