How to deal with the relationship between tradition and modernity
has become a global concern under the impact of pluralism. This
book explores the relationship between traditional Dai culture and
modern school education through a field study in the Dai region of
Xishuangbanna, Yunnan, China. The study analyses the reasons for
conflicts between monastic education and modern school education in
the Dai region of Xishuangbanna. It also discusses the logic behind
the formation of the Dai people's belief in Southern Theravada
Buddhism and its importance in Dai culture. Through the analysis of
the changes in monastic education before and after the intervention
of the modern school system, the study finds symbiosis in the
differences and conflicts between these two forms of education. The
author proposes a symbiosis theory of multiple education forms in
ethnic areas and offers targeted solutions to specific problems
between the Dai monastic education and modern school education in
Xishuangbanna. This book will be a great read to students and
scholars of Chinese studies, ethnic studies, education, and those
who are interested in multi-ethnicity issues in general.
