Project

The Reconstruction of a Marxist-centred Belief System in Chinese State Education
..
Project Start Year: 2021, Principal Investigator(s): ZHAO, Zhenzhou 趙振洲
 
Flourishing religion among students in a multi-ethnic China: Implications for citizenship values
The concept of ‘religion’ was imported to China from the West in the late nineteenth century and has since been closely intertwined with the construction of the Chinese nation-state. Nonetheless, the representation of religion in education and its role in shaping loyalty to the nation remain a mystery. China has witnessed a widespread religious resurgence and religion continues to play an increasingly prominent role in public life. This is especially obvious in higher education settings, where students often show a strong interest in exploring different religious beliefs. However, the question remains as to how the growing religious forces and values are received by the new generation of Chinese citizens who are exposed to the various ideologies of the post-Mao era. A number of Chinese studies have reported the complicated religious beliefs and multiple motivations among the university student population. However, two basic questions remain unanswered: what are students taught about religiosity in the curriculum before they attend the university, and what role do students think religiosity plays in building a modern, ethno-culturally diverse China?
In this study, we aim to explore how religiosity is represented and interwoven in the construction of diversity and national unity in China’s state-run education system.

Project Start Year: 2016, Principal Investigator(s): ZHAO, Zhenzhou 趙振洲
 
Chinese Civics and Citizenship Education Study (CCCS): Mainland Chinese Students' Attitudes to Citizenship Values and Responsibilities
This project will analyze the quantitative data that has been collected from an adapted version of the instrument used in the International Civics and Citizenship Education Study (ICCS) 2009, as well as to collect and analyze qualitative data from a focus group interviews with 10 mainland Chinese students with an aim of understanding their views on citizenship values and attitudes and better understanding the quantitative data. Its purpose is to develop a better understanding of the way young people in China think about citizenship, to develop models of citizenship attitudes and behavior and to provide a point of comparison for students from other countries and education systems.

Higher Educational Contexts and University Students' Religious Beliefs
This proposed project will make an attempt to understand the attitudes of agents of the state toward religion in China’s higher education arena, including the state media, textbooks and teachers. The objective is to answer the research questions: (1) What messages do the state and universities transmit to students on religious beliefs? and (2) How do university academic and administrative staff think of students’ embracement of religions?
Project Start Year: 2012, Principal Investigator(s): ZHAO, Zhenzhou 趙振洲
 
Civil Engagement through Religion among Chinese University Students
The proposed project aims to explore whether and how university students' embracement of religions relates to civic engagement in China.

State Legitimacy Claims in Chinese Citizenship Education, 1912-2008
This research aims to answer the question of how Chinese governments from 1912 to 2008 have used the citizenship education curriculum to present their claims to legitimacy to youth, as future citizens, in an attempt to cultivates’ support for the state. It starts from the assertion that the content of the citizenship education curriculum in China has embodied the claims to legitimacy of the pre-1949 and post-1949 states, in the interest of cultivating youth who support the state and nation and are motivated to make contributions to their nation’s development.
