Education and Global Cultural Dialogue

A One-Day Conference in honor of Ruth Hayhoe, May 6, 2011, Toronto

In her work, Ruth Hayhoe has focused on higher education in China, and its dramatic shifts in interaction with the global community over the 20th century. She has also contributed to comparative education thought through her interest in knowledge across cultures and the nature of international academic relations. Therefore we are structuring this Call for Papers in two sections, one more specific to China, the other more oriented to reflection on education and inter-cultural understanding.

I. China's Universities over a Century of Dramatic Change, 1911-2011

II. Education and Inter-cultural Understanding
