The dean of Shandong : confessions of a minor bureaucrat at a Chinese university / Daniel A. Bell. by Bell, Daniel (Daniel A.), 1964- author. Princeton, NJ : Princeton University Press, [2023] Subjects Bell, Daniel (Daniel A.), 1964-   Shandong da xue -- Officials and employees.   Education, Higher -- China.   Higher education and state -- China.   Education, Higher -- Political aspects -- China.   Universities and colleges -- Social aspects -- China. ISBN:  9780691247120 (hardcover) 0691247129 (hardcover) Description:  x, 196 pages ; 23 cm Requests:  0 Summary:  "...Bell, neither a Chinese citizen nor a member of the Chinese Communist Party, was appointed as dean because of his scholarly work on Confucianism--but soon found himself coping with a variety of issues having little to do with scholarship or Confucius. These include the importance of hair color and the prevalence of hair-dyeing among university administrators, both male and female; Shandong's drinking culture, with endless toasts at every shared meal; and some unintended consequences of an intensely competitive academic meritocracy. As dean, he also confronts weightier matters: the role at the university of the Party secretary, the national anticorruption campaign and its effect on academia (Bell asks provocatively, "What's wrong with corruption?"), and formal and informal modes of censorship. Considering both the revival of Confucianism in China over the last three decades and what he calls "the Communist comeback" since 2008, Bell predicts that China's political future is likely to be determined by both Confucianism and Communism"--Book jacket.   Copy/Holding information Location Collection Call No. Status   Hawaii State Library Social Science & Philosophy 378.5114 Be Checked In Add Copy to MyList
