Deng Xiaoping's milestone decision in 1978 to send a large number of Chinese nationals to study in the United States has fostered increased cross-Pacific dialogue among academics. In recent years a tidal wave of 'returnees' who studied abroad have moved back to China. Cheng Li and this volume's distinguished contributors examine how these individuals are working to shape their home country, especially in social science curriculum development, program-building, and research, and in public policy formation. This book explores whether sweeping educational exchanges between these two profoundly different countries have promoted productive mutual understanding.Language: EnglishCountry/Region of Manufacture: USItem Height: 228mmItem Length: 154mmItem Width: 22mmItem Weight: 426gRelease Year: 2005 Missing Information?Please contact us if any details are missing and where possible we will add the information to our listing.
