A Comparative Approach to the Cultural Dynamics of Sino-Western Educational Co-operation
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 17 February 2009
Extract
The purpose of this article is to examine comparatively three distinctive exemplars of Sino-Western educational co-operation: Tongji University as an expression of Sino-German educational interaction, Qinghua University with its roots in Sino-American relations, and the lesser-known Zhongfa University, an important institution of French-Chinese scholarly collaboration in the pre-Liberation period. The present open-door climate has given rise to contemporary projects of educational cooperation between China and each of these countries, as well as many other western countries, which might be illumined by some reflection on an earlier period. It will be of interest, therefore, to investigate the particular combination of scholarly values or ethos created by each institution and its relevance to the wider problematic of the modernization of Chinese scholarly culture.

3. The absence of a tendency towards speculative thought in the social sciences can be illustrated most dramatically by the fact that no Chinese scholar conceived of a government without an emperor up to the 19th century, with the exception of Daoist notions of anarchy, an interesting contrast to the Utopias going back to Plato in western social thought.

10. While medicine was a high prestige area of traditional professional knowledge in Germany, in this German initiative in China it became linked to engineering as an applied science in an institution which was to remain up to this day closer to the technische hochschule than the university in character.

14. One of Cai's first acts as chancellor of Beida was to remove the engineering school to Beiyang University in Tianjin on the grounds that the university should be dedicated to pure learning (xue) not technique (shu). His aims for the university, expressed in his inaugural address as chancellor in January 1917, and in the preface he wrote for Beida's first research journal in 1918, reflect a clear Humboldtian model of the university.

20. In the Great Leap Forward, this organization of knowledge was challenged in two important ways. Certain applied fields were introduced into some of the comprehensive universities, and details on this can be found in the institutional histories given in Zhongguo gaodeng xuexiao jianjie (A Brief Introduction to Chinese Institutions of Higher Learning) (Beijing: Jiaoyu Kexue Chubanshe, 1981).Google Scholar Secondly, a new model was exemplified in the creation of two universities of science and technology along the lines of the MIT or Cal. Tech. pattern. Zhongguo Keji Daxue (The Chinese University of Science and Technology) in Beijing was moved to Hefei during the Cultural Revolution period and has developed a very high national profile, while Shanghai Keji Daxue has remained in Shanghai over the subsequent period and gained less national attention.

21. People's University has always been included by the Chinese on their list of comprehensive universities, although its curriculum is even less comprehensive than that of such institutions as Beijing University, which included pure arts and sciences and excluded all applied fields. See Current Background, No. 462 (1 07 1957)Google Scholar for a translation of the Chinese Ministry of Education brochure “Guide to Institutions of Higher Education,” issued in March of 1957, where People's is clearly categorized as a comprehensive university.

His paper. “On some vital issues in the development and reform of higher education in the P.R.C.,” presented at the 5th World Congress of Comparative Education (Paris, July 1984), gives a valuable assessment from a Chinese perspective of both the strengths and weaknesses of the Soviet model as applied to China, particularly in relation to the engineering sciences. The interpretation of the role of People's University here is of course entirely the author's.

24. Ibid. p. 238. In his speech, Liu justified the separation of social and natural sciences and People's concentration on the social sciences by reference to an anecdote concerning Confucius and the competition for good students. People's need not compete for good students in the natural sciences, he argued, as “this way of dividing work is to the benefit of the country.”

A graphic account of this purification process is provided in Hinton, William, Hundred Day War (New York: Monthly Review Press, 1972).Google Scholar One of the points on which Qinghua's president, Jiang Nanxiang, was violently criticized was the way in which he had acted on the principle of university autonomy or academic government by professors through recruiting top intellectuals into the Party and so assuring academic control of the university.

57. Chinese awareness of this is evidenced by the fact that the improvement of higher agricultural education and research has been a priority in the educational projects being funded by World Bank loans, and three of ten are related to this area. There is even a discussion going on about the possibility of creating a few leading institutions directly after the Land Grant model.

65. Marianne Bastid makes the point that Li Shizeng was clearly committed to internationalism, while Cai Yuanpei may have been more concerned about the need to indicate a spirit of nationalism, though he sought to avoid political or ideological misuse of the schooling system by the government.

While the lower schools had been in operation for some time, and in many cases had opened as preparatory schools for young people going to France, the higher institutes apparently only began accepting students in 1925, and were registered with the Ministry of Education as a university in 1926.

Most of its property and buildings, valued at around U.S. $430,000.00 in 1943, were already in place in 1925 before any Boxer indemnity funds were available, and had probably been purchased with funds donated from the Chinese community.

79. Ibid. p. 150. Prost describes the French university as I'etat enseignant, which claimed the right to regulate all aspects of education not in subservience to successive governments but in loyalty to the higher moral and intellectual interests of the state, particularly to the values of liberty and truth. It is not difficult to understand the appeal of this ethos to Chinese scholars steeped in the best aspects of the Confucian tradition.

89. Marianne Bastid links Li Shizeng's concern with the agricultural sciences and determination to promote them in China with his roots in a scholar–gentry intelligentsia that were still strongly attached to the land in the late 19th century.
