Beskrivning
This book offers a nuanced and research-based, critical account of the current status of Chinese education at differing levels within China, in the context of its position on the global economic and political stage.Following on from in-depth discussion of China’s global policies including the Forum on China and Africa Cooperation (FOCAC) action plan, and the Belt and Road Initiative (BRI), chapters present empirically based case studies showcasing a range of theoretical perspectives on higher education, neoliberalism and nationalism, teacher training and identity, and curriculum design, amongst other areas of research. The book contextualises the role of education internally within China as it faces global challenges and explores how China has developed its education programmes within its national and international strategies. Key trends in educational development are also addressed, such as the digitalisation of education and artificial intelligence.Ultimately offering a critical analysis of the Chinese education system in the context of globalisation, this book will be relevant to scholars, academics, and postgraduate students in the fields of international and comparative education, educational policy and politics, and Chinese education development more specifically. Educational policymakers may also find this volume of interest.

“With its multidimensional landscape and rich detail, this book presents the latest developments in Chinese education from a global perspective, highlighting China’s efforts to fulfil its commitments to SDG4 and promote international understanding. Undoubtedly, it is an essential read for the international community to rethink Chinese education in the 21st century.”Mingyuan Gu, Distinguished Professor of Beijing Normal University, Honorary Professor of Teachers College, Columbia University, US “We cannot consider international educational development without thoroughly giving thought to each country’s context, including cultural, geographical and societal influences. This book uniquely details education in Chinese schools and universities. Its use of empirical research and consideration of international influences on practice make this a valuable addition to the book series.”Zeta Williams-Brown, Professor for Inclusive Education, University of Wolverhampton, UK“In international and comparative education, China is often discussed through a familiar set of binaries: openness versus control, global integration versus national security, and rapid modernisation versus cultural tradition (Vickers and Chen 2024). In today’s geopolitical climate, these oppositions have become even more pronounced. Chinese Education in a Changing Global Landscape arrives at a timely moment by moving beyond such reductive dichotomies and offering a more nuanced account. Bringing together predominantly Chinese scholars based both within China and overseas, the volume provides an ‘internal’ perspective on how Chinese education has responded to, negotiated with, and been reshaped by changing global conditions.”Peng Zhang, UCL Institute of Education, University College London, London, UK
