Σχετικά με το ebook
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 socialchange and developments?
This book will appeal to a wide readership, including scholars and graduate students, upper division undergraduate students of China studies, Asian studies.
