Chinese Culture in the Global Context
Conference 2019
13 - 15 March 2019
Chinese Culture in the 21st Century and its Global Dimensions
Introduction:
The global impact of China lies as much in its soft cultural power as in its economic growth. Hence, the teaching of Chinese language, literature, history, philosophy, communication, film and art cannot be isolated from an understanding of the internationalization of Chinese culture in recent decades. With this in view, this conference will be organized to serve as a platform to promote the sharing of research ideas and the dissemination of research findings on Chinese culture in the 21st century and its global dimension.
Aims and Objectives
-
Explore the contemporary significance of Chinese culture in its philosophical, literary and artistic manifestations;
-
Investigate how Chinese culture has been taught and studied in different parts of the world, particularly in East Asia, Southeast Asia, Europe, and North America; and
-
Facilitate the study of the increasingly important role that Chinese culture plays in the global world
About the Conference
Chinese Culture in the Global Context Conference 2019 is substantially supported by a grant from the Research Grants Council of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region, China (UGC/IDS16/16)
