The Exemplary Society: Human Improvement, Social Control, and the Dangers of Modernity in China

(Part of the Studies on Contemporary China Series)

This pathbreaking study analyzes traditional and modern Chinese beliefs about and reactions to education, discipline, human improvement, and social control. Although these reactions to modernity have a Chinese coloring, they are not exclusive to the Chinese culture. By describing the terra incognita of China, The Exemplary Society also describes something about ourselves.
