Description

Explore the historical evolution of academic connections between China and the United States. This volume from the Routledge Research in International and Comparative Education series examines how China transitioned from a period of isolation toward a strategy of seeking education beyond its borders. Following the challenges of the mid-1800s, including the Opium Wars and internal rebellions, Chinese imperial leaders looked to the West to acquire science and technology. This movement was intended to modernize the economy and military to protect against foreign encroachment. This book provides a deep look at how these historical decisions shaped modern educational trends. It connects the early efforts to modernize a feudal economy with the current reality of global academic exchange. Today, the relationship continues to grow, with more than 200,000 Chinese students enrolled in colleges and universities across the United States. This text is a valuable resource for those studying world history and the long-term impact of international educational policies.
