China's past, present, and future: through history, geography, philosophies, literature, politics, economics, art, and ecology.
Modern China presents a dual image: a society transforming itself through economic development and infrastructure investment that aspires to global leadership; and the world's largest and oldest bureaucratic state, with multiple traditions in its cultural, economic, and political life. These themes are discussed in order to understand China in the twenty-first century.
ChinaX introduces new features to make the riches of Harvard's visual collections and the expertise of its faculty more accessible to learners worldwide. We will engage intellectual and religious trends, material and political culture, the local diversity and the national unity, art and literature, and China's economic and political transformation— past, present and future.
