This book is a study of the change and continuity in paradigms in
China studies, both inside and outside of China. In the last few
years, the United States and China appeared to be moving in the
direction of "de-coupling," indicating that the engagement policy
with China in the last four decade is ending. The "modernization
theory" that is the theoretical foundation of the engagement policy
has proved to be insufficient. This situation calls for a
reexamination of the field of China studies. Historically,
scholarly paradigms shifts often went hand in hand with drastic
social change. As we have entered an era of great uncertainty, it
is constructive to reflect on the paradigms in China studies in the
past and explore the possibility of new paradigms in the future.
How are the shifts of major theories, methods and paradigms in
China studies in the west related to social change? How did some of
China's paradigms impact on the country's social change and
developments? This book will appeal to a wide readership, including
scholars and graduate students, upper division undergraduate
students of China studies, Asian studies.
