Conclusion. 330 $aThis book offers a new perspective on the transnational dimensions of China's educational and economic history by focusing on Sino-German interactions in the field of vocational education. It explores how Chinese perceptions of manual work, vocational skills, and educational practices changed dramatically throughout the first half of the twentieth century as Chinese educators increased their efforts to study and translate German pedagogical writings. Case studies researched in this book illustrate how a Chinese appreciation for German technological and scientific advances and German interests in profiting from a growing Chinese economy are not just recent phenomena but have their roots in the early twentieth century. Henrike Rudolph is a researcher at the Department of East Asian Studies at the University of Göttingen, Germany. 410 0$aPalgrave Series in Asian German Studies,$x2731-5665 606 $aHistory, Modern 606 $aAsia$xHistory 606 $aEurope$xHistory 606 $aEducation$xHistory 606 $aWorld history 606 $aModern History 606 $aAsian History 606 $aEuropean History 606 $aHistory of Education 606 $aWorld History, Global and Transnational History 615 0$aHistory, Modern. 615 0$aAsia$xHistory. 615 0$aEurope$xHistory. 615 0$aEducation$xHistory. 615 0$aWorld history. 615 14$aModern History. 615 24$aAsian History. 615 24$aEuropean History. 615 24$aHistory of Education. 615 24$aWorld History, Global and Transnational History. 676 $a370.1130951 676 $a370.1130951 700 $aRudolph$b Henrike$01453050 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 912 $a9910767551003321 996 $aGermany and vocational education in Republican China$93655514 997 $aUNINA
