Multiculturalism, Chinese Identity, and Education
«
'Cong Lin describes why an inclusive and multicultural notion of Chinese identify should be taught in the schools because it has multiple dimensions, is evolving, heterogeneous, and contentious. This well-researched, visionary, and discerning book can help educational practitioners and policy makers to re-envision civic education and make it transformative and consistent with the complex and fluid identities that students need to function in a changing and complex multicultural world. This book is an essential and timely reference that deserves a wide audience.'
James A. Banks, Kerry and Linda Killinger Endowed Chair in Diversity Studies Emeritus, University of Washington, Seattle
'Jason Cong Lin’s intriguing analysis of Chinese identity in government discourses and textbooks in Mainland China and Hong Kong is an important contribution to the literature. The book’s critical stance makes it an essential reading for those who are interested in the areas including but not limited to identity and politics, ethnicity, multiculturalism, curriculum and textbook analysis, and China and Hong Kong Studies. The book will help further multicultural and intercultural development in China, Hong Kong and elsewhere.'
