2023 Confucian Studies Summer Institute

I、Introduction

       How can the Chinese story be told? What exactly is Chinese culture? And what is Western culture? How can we enable foreign students to grasp the spirit of Chinese culture, and Chinese students to understand Western culture better? We have held the International Confucian Studies Summer Institute for twelve years from 2011 to 2022. Using comparative philosophy to interpret this field and put the mirror up to China and the West. To clear up misinterpretations and get out from this predicament. To promote the common values of humanity through mutual learning.
