Description

This volume explores the ways in which traditional Chinese wisdom can inform and enrich contemporary efforts to construct values that promote education and human development.

Global scholars from diverse backgrounds engage in a dialogue on the enduring legacy of Chinese wisdom and its relevance for addressing the multifaceted challenges of education in the modern era. To foster ideas that transcend cultural and spatial boundaries, the authors employ the framework of the United Nations’ five pillars of Sustainable Development to examine how traditional Chinese perspectives can offer insights for developing contemporary values that contribute to the common good and well-being of humanity. These themes underpin the comprehensive deliberations on how traditional Chinese wisdom can be leveraged to create new opportunities for fostering educational innovation and advancing human development in response to contemporary global challenges.

This volume will be valuable to scholars, educators and students with an interest in Chinese culture and history, cultural studies, Chinese language pedagogy, Chinese education and culture, and East Asian studies. It provides foundational concepts that are accessible to undergraduates, while offering in-depth analysis and research that will engage postgraduate students and researchers.
