The Image of Jews in Contemporary China: Jewish Identities in Post-Modern Society

Editat de James R Ross, Song Lihong
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 7 feb 2019
Bookstores in Chinese cities are stocked with dozens of Chinese-language books on how Jews conduct business, manage the world, and raise their children. At least ten universities throughout China offer popular Jewish Studies programs, some with advanced degrees. Yet there are virtually no Jews in China. The Chinese are constructing an identity for a people that the large majority of them will never meet. This edited volume critically examines the image of Jews from the contemporary perspective of ordinary Chinese citizens. It includes chapters on Chinese Jewish Studies programs, popular Chinese books and blogs about Jews, Chinäs relations with Israel, and innovative examinations of the ancient Jewish community of Kaifeng.
