This book brings together English translations of thirteen research
papers published in recent years by Chinese historians,
sociologists, and educators. These papers investigate various
dimensions of the legacy of China’s historic The Christian
Universities which continues to inspire higher education reform in
China even in the twenty-first century. This book focuses on
Christian Universities, which fostered a particularly notable
Liberal Arts Education in the Chinese context. Besides embracing
some ideals in common with Liberal Arts Education developed in the
West, their Liberal Arts Education curriculum had an emphasis on
readings in the classics, history, philosophy, religion, ethics,
and literature which conveyed traditional Chinese values. The
Christian Universities also shared a strong commitment to moral
formation, community service, and global citizenship education.
This book emphasizes Liberal Arts Education that focused on the
whole person, where academic knowledge, skills, and character were
equally valued. The book presents distinctive characteristics of
the study of Christian higher education in China and the interplay
between globalization and localization.
