From Missionary Education to Confucius Institutes - Historical Reflections on Sino-American Cultural Exchange

From Missionary Education to Confucius Institutes examines the history and globalization of cultural exchange between the US and China and corrects many myths surrounding the incompatibility of American and Chinese cultures in the higher educational sphere. Providing a fresh look at the role of non-state actors in advancing Sino-American cross-cultural knowledge exchange, the book presents empirical studies highlighting the diverse experiences and practices involved. Case studies include the US-initiated missionary education in modern China, the involvement of private foundations and professional associations in education, the impact of Chinese and American laws on student exchanges, and the evaluation of the experience of US Confucius Institutes. This book will appeal to students and scholars of US and Chinese higher education from the past to the present, as well as international admission officers and university executives who are concerned about the global educational partnership with China and questions around the internationalization of education more broadly.
