About The Book
Understanding Chinese Society offers a comprehensive and accessible introduction to the key social issues shaping contemporary China. The second edition has been fully revised and updated, offering a well-grounded exploration of China's family dynamics, education system, ethnic diversity, and hierarchical structures. In addition to thoroughly addressing China’s mass media, legal system, and social control mechanisms, this edition introduces new chapters on urbanization, environmental concerns, and the rise of civil society in China.
Guided by a team of international experts, the book dives deep into essential questions like: What are the defining features of family and marriage in China? How do men and women experience Chinese society differently? What is the position of minorities, and how does the education system impact Chinese society? It also explores cultural traditions, religion, and work in China, providing readers with an enriched understanding of these crucial topics.
Designed for students and those interested in Chinese culture, society, and sociology, Understanding Chinese Society offers invaluable pedagogical tools, such as a chronology of the People's Republic of China, further reading suggestions, and related novels and films. Perfect for anyone seeking a nuanced and well-rounded view of modern China.
