Understanding China’s school : leadership Interpreting the terminology
Documentos PDF
Resumo
“China, with its geographical, historical, cultural, and political distance from the
West, long has been a black box upon which we readily paste labels communist,
non-Western, developing country but whose internal logic remains a mystery to
us”. (Cohen, 2010) In this global era and also with China’s rapid developing
economy over these decades, the international education community has a growing
interest in understanding how school leadership works in China’s context.
Understanding China’s School Leadership: Interpreting the Terminology1 is a
book on school leadership in China’s context, but is not the school leadership book
in the conventional sense and with common formats. This book primarily focuses
on the key terms2 widely accepted and high-frequency used in school leadership
practice in China, which may be a bit difficult to understand for outsiders. It is not a
book based on an empirical study, in which a specific issue of China’s school
leadership is concerned. Rather, it seeks to provide a broader, but nuanced and
accurate picture with ample information about current status of China’s school
leadership by attempting to explore a set of key terms and explicate the real
meaning of them so as to assist readers to have access to China’s school leadership
terminology system, which would be likely to help international audience to
understand the fundamental characteristics of China’s school leadership practice,
and even to gain insight into the internal dynamic and hidden logic of school
leadership practice in China’s context.
