Contemporary Chinese Culture and Society II - CHN362

This unit will build on previous study to explore the main areas of reform-era Chinese life (1978-present): economy, politics, society, culture, and the environment. Students will analyse and explore the lived experiences of the Chinese people, and the causes and consequences of social inequality and social conflicts, as well as social and political changes. What does China stand for? What are the key values that have the potential to make the contemporary world a better place? Through rigorous academic discussion and analysis, students will become more confident and fluent in conducting research on contemporary Chinese culture and society, and be able to apply similar skills in understanding other cultures and peoples.
