Occupational characteristics and work addresses play key roles in tracking down “patient zero”. The present descriptive analysis for occupational characteristics and management measures of sporadic COVID-19 outbreaks from June to December 2020 in China offers important new information to the international community at this stage of the pandemic. These data suggest that Chinese measures including tracking down “patient zero”, launching mass COVID-19 testing in the SARS-CoV-2-positive areas, designating a new high or medium-risk area, locking down the corresponding community or neighborhood in response to new COVID-19 cases and basing individual methods of protection on science, are effective in reducing transmission of the highly contagious SARS-CoV-2 across China.

  • Cai Yuanpei's Vision of Aesthetic Education and His Legacy in Modern China
    Nordic Journal of Comparative and International Education (NJCIE) NJCIE 2021, Vol. 5(2), 51–64 http://doi.org/10.7577/njcie.4155 Cai Yuanpei’s Vision of Aesthetic Education and His Legacy in Modern China Ning LUO1 The Education University of Hong Kong Copyright the author Peer-reviewed article; received 02 February 2021; accepted 6 April 2021 Abstract Cai Yuanpei is widely understood to have been a traditionally educated Chinese scholar who then turned his attention to Western philosophy. He is known to have played a central role in the development of Republican educational philosophies and institutions, with a legacy that continues to inform education in China. Studies tend to interpret Cai Yuanpei’s approach to aesthetic education in light of his educational experience in Germany, regarding him as a Kantian scholar. However, the Confucian roots of his aesthetic education seldom draw scholarly attention. To fill the gap, this article examines Cai’s vision of aesthetic education based on both his academic background in the East and his knowledge of Western philosophy and maps out his influence on and legacy in aesthetic education in China. It argues that Cai’s vision of aesthetic education has influenced modern Chinese education in three main ways: by bridging the gap between moral education and aesthetic education to nurture citizenship, by encouraging aesthetic education for whole-person development, and by adopting an interdisciplinary approach to school aesthetic education. The article concludes by reflecting on the enduring value of Cai’s vision of aesthetic education to modern Chinese education. Keywords: Cai Yuanpei, aesthetic education, China, humanism, social harmony Introduction Cai Yuanpei (蔡元培, 1868–1940) was a prominent figure in 20th-century China who served as the first Minister of Education of the Republic of China (ROC) and initiated modern education reforms nationwide.

  • China's Quest for World-Class Universities
    MARCHING TOWARD HARVARD: CHINA’S QUEST FOR WORLD-CLASS UNIVERSITIES A Thesis submitted to the Faculty of The School of Continuing Studies and of The Graduate School of Arts and Sciences in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the Masters of Arts in Liberal Studies By Linda S. Heaney, B.A. Georgetown University Washington, D.C. April 19, 2111 MARCHING TOWARD HARVARD: CHINA’S QUEST FOR WORLD-CLASS UNIVERSITIES Linda S. Heaney, B.A. MALS Mentor: Michael C. Wall, Ph.D. ABSTRACT China, with its long history of using education to serve the nation, has committed significant financial and human resources to building world-class universities in order to strengthen the nation’s development, steer the economy towards innovation, and gain the prestige that comes with highly ranked academic institutions. The key economic shift from “Made in China” to “Created by China” hinges on having world-class universities and prompts China’s latest intentional and pragmatic step in using higher education to serve its economic interests. This thesis analyzes China’s potential for reaching its goal of establishing world-class universities by 2020. It addresses the specific challenges presented by lack of autonomy and academic freedom, pressures on faculty, the systemic problems of plagiarism, favoritism, and corruption as well as the cultural contradictions caused by importing ideas and techniques from the West. The foundation of the paper is a narrative about the traditional intertwining role of government and academia in China’s history, the major educational transitions and reforms of the 20th century, and the essential ingredients of a world-class institution.

  • Rethinking Cai Yuanpei: the Chinese and Japanese Origins of His Ideas on Women1
    Rethinking Cai Yuanpei: The Chinese and Japanese Origins of His Ideas on Women1 Yuen Ting Lee Hong Kong Shue Yan University, Hong Kong Abstract Although Cai Yuanpei (1868-1940) is generally accepted as a leading liberal educator of modern China, his contributions to female schooling and his ideas on women have been ignored by Western scholarship. This article, therefore, intends to make known to scholars some neglected aspects of the sources of his ideas on women. Previous assumption has emphasized excessively the influence of a radical mid-Qing scholar, Yu Zhengxie (1775-1840), on Cai’s ideas. Yu only constituted one source of Cai’s ideas. The assumption reflects the progressive side of a coin. When fuller attention is paid to other sources of Cai’s ideas, a different picture emerges. Cai actually derived some traditional views on women from his predecessors and contemporaries. These views, to some extent, slowed down his progressive speed when he implemented female schooling at the later stage of his educational career. How did Cai’s predecessors and contemporaries identify the inferiority of women in traditional China? How did they contribute to women empowerment? How did Cai learn from the experiences of his predecessors and contemporaries? This article will argue that Cai borrowed his ideas on women not only from Yu alone, but also from some indigenous Chinese and Japanese intellectuals. This alternative interpretation stems from the use of new materials, including archives, new versions of Cai’s collected works, and unexplored literature on women. Key words equality, sexes, female education, women’s issues. 1 The author would like to thank the anonymous reviewersfor their constructive comments on the earlier version of this article, and in particular, I thank the editors of this journal who have considered the publication of the article.

  • Engaging with Socialism in China: the Political Thought and Activities of Chen Gongbo and Tan Pingshan, 1917-1928
    Engaging with Socialism in China: The Political Thought and Activities of Chen Gongbo and Tan Pingshan, 1917-1928 Xuduo Zhao PhD University of York History May 2019 1 Abstract This thesis investigates Chen Gongbo (1892-1946) and Tan Pingshan (1886-1956), two significant Cantonese Marxists who helped found the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) in 1921. I use Chen and Tan as a lens to re-examine the dissemination of Marxism in May Fourth China and the underlying tensions in 1920s Chinese revolution. My study demonstrates that it was in the changing educational system in the early 20th century that Chen and Tan gradually improved their positions in the cultural field and participated in the intellectual ferment during the May Fourth period. At Peking University they became familiarised with Marxism. Their understanding of Marxism, however, was deeply influenced by European social democracy, as opposed to many other early communist leaders who believed in Bolshevism. This divergence finally led to the open conflict within the CCP between Guangzhou and Shanghai in the summer of 1922, which also embodied the different social identities among early Chinese Marxists. After the quarrel, Chen quit while Tan remained within the party. During the Nationalist Revolution, both Tan and Chen became senior leaders in the Kuomintang, but they had to face yet another identity crisis of whether to be a revolutionary or a politician. Meanwhile, they had to rethink the relationship between socialism and nationalism in their political propositions. This study of Chen and Tan’s political thought and activities in the late 1910s and 1920s offers a different picture of Chinese radicalism and revolution in the early Republican period.

  • The Art of Fan Tchunpi
    , 1937, oil on canvas Self-Portrait Between Tradition and Modernity: The Art of Fan Tchunpi September 7–December 8, 2013 | Hood Museum of Art, Dartmouth College This exhibition explores the extraordinary life and work of Fan Tchunpi (1898–1986), one of the most important and pro- lific Chinese women artists of the modern era. As the first solo exhibition of the artist’s work since her 1984 retrospective at the Musée Cernuschi (Asian Art Museum) in Paris, Between Tradition and Modernity examines Fan Tchunpi’s search for an artistic language that would speak for the self and the nation in an age of crisis and revolution. Fan Tchunpi was born on March 3, 1898, into a wealthy family in Fuzhou, the seaport capital of Fujian Province on the southeast coast of China. In the early twentieth century, China witnessed the end of its old imperial system and the rise of a modern na- tion state. The collapse of the Qing Dynasty in 1911 and the establishment of the Republic of China in Nanjing in 1912 led artists, in their search for a new national identity, to travel and Fig. 1. Sunset on Lake Annecy, 1922, oil on canvas. This painting was made study abroad. After the overthrow of the Qing Dynasty, a group around the time of Fan Tchunpi’s wedding to Tsongming Tsen and depicts Lake Annecy and the spectacular mountain range that surrounds it. With its agitated, of young participants in the revolution was awarded with linear brushstrokes and heightened color effects, it reveals the lessons that Fan scholarships to study abroad, among them Fan Tchunpi’s elder Tchunpi learned from the work of Pierre Auguste Renoir, Claude Monet, and sister Fan Tchunying, who at the age of twenty-six had played other French impressionist painters during her studies in Paris and Bordeaux.
