當代中國研究中心簡介

Center for Contemporary China National Tsing Hua University

進二十五年來，中國和國際政經情勢丕變。1978年，中國開始市場經濟改革：1980年代末期西方進入後社會主義和後冷戰的國際關係：1990年代，全球化的經濟體系帶動兩岸新的經貿和社會關係。這些改變不但促使中國研究成為國際上一個重要且發展快速的學術領域，另一方面也提供了研究台灣與中國兩岸關係一個嶄新的脈絡。
Fundamental changes have taken place in China over the last 25 years. Since the late 1970s, China's market reforms have made a tremendous impact on the political, economic, and social interactions across the Taiwan Strait under the pressures of globalization. These changes necessitate a new outlook toward China, and therefore call for a paradigm shift of China studies in Taiwan - from a policy-oriented nation al security approach to a broader regional studies based on social science theories. China studies, thus, pose serious challenges to our scientific community in the new century. In view of the development s, the university envisions a major shift in the field and aims to play a pivotal role in creating leading research projects and updating curriculums.
