In twenty-first-century China, socialist educational traditions
have given way to practices that increasingly emphasize the
individual. This volume investigates that trend, drawing on
Hansen's fieldwork in a rural high school in Zhejiang where
students, teachers, and officials of different generations,
genders, and social backgrounds form what is essentially a
miniature version of Chinese society. Hansen paints a complex
picture of the emerging "neosocialist" educational system and shows
how individualization of students both challenges and reinforces
state control of society.
