Funded Activity Summary

Adolescence in Contemporary China: Social Change, Future Directions and Implications for Australia. China has one-fifth of the world's adolescents. In the last two decades, this age-group has become the focus of unprecedented public and policy debate across all areas of Chinese life. Yet the literature contains no scholarly synthesis of these debates that explains China's 'adolescent phenomenon' and its overall significance. This project offers the first, sustained analysis of contemporary Chinese adolescence as both product and catalyst of social change. It provides new perspectives on Chinese society, economy and politics within local and global frameworks and has applied potential, especially for international education.
