| Summary |
This book presents a discussion on Chinese people's internal and external psychologies and logics, as well as the respective stage of social development and cultural context they were raised in, and from sociological, social psychological, and cultural anthropological perspectives. In particular, the book explores the relationship between Chinese people's behaviors and China's social and cultural structure. It puts forward a theoretical framework for the analysis of Chinese social behaviors, which is based on the realistic aspects of Chinese people's day-to-day-lives. The book also concludes that any attempt to study Chinese psychologies and behaviors should "seek the constant among the changes, or at least those aspects that are hardest to change" and investigate the context and background, which can provide a point of departure for current and future research |
