The Center for Chinese Bie-modern Studies (CCBMS) at Georgia Southwestern State University in collaboration with the Institute of Aesthetics and Aesthetic Education of Shanghai Normal University and the Center for Bie-modern Studies at the University of Primorska, will host a virtual international symposium was held virtually on November 30th, 2021. Papers were accepted on a wide range of topics that engage issues in contemporary Chinese culture, cultures in similarly developing countries or within the developed west. Dr. Wang Jianjiang, a Chinese scholar in Shanghai has proposed a theory of “Bie-modernism” to discuss the contemporary Chinese experience. His ideas have been expanding globally while creating a growing dialogue between Chinese and western scholars concerning zhuyi and or "ism" (theory). This has led to the questioning of historical modes and comparisons between the Bie-modern and modern, and the Bie-modern and postmodern. Paper proposals were encouraged from all disciplines.
