【About This Course】
How does the Chinese civilization, which spans over five millennia draw upon its profound heritage to modernize on its own terms and offer insights for global development? This course unpacks this question through five engaging episodes centered on cultural confidence.
You will explore diverse dimensions where tradition converges with innovation:
- Education: Discover how the ancient philosophy of educating people after they are enriched informs modern educational reforms and promote equality.
- Governance: See how the Confucian concept of benevolent governance translates into the modern people-centered philosophy of development that improves the lives of 1.4 billion citizens of China.
- Cultural Preservation: Witness the digital rebirth of treasures from the Palace Museum to Dunhuang murals, and how ancient myths find new global resonance through creative storytelling and the quantum leap in China’s animation industry.
- Ethnic Harmony: Experience how the philosophy of "harmony without uniformity" enables 56 ethnic groups to thrive together, as seen in the communities of Lijiang in Yunnan province, Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region, and Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region.
- Global Vision: Understand how the enduring ideal of universal harmony shapes the modern vision of of building a community with a shared future for humanity, with endeavors like the Belt and Road Initiative fostering worldwide collaboration.
These narratives reveal a Chinese approach to modernity: one that is guided by and continues to draw vitality from its profound cultural legacy. It blends timeless wisdom with contemporary relevance to contribute to global dialogue and shared prosperity.
