About

The Manchester China Institute (MCI) promotes research, teaching, and learning about China across all faculties at the University of Manchester, with a focus on the Humanities. The Institute’s vision is to foster a better understanding of China’s expanding role in a rapidly globalising world, and to promote the healthy development of UK-China relations. MCI seeks to promote dialogue across academic disciplines about China, generating and sharing new knowledge that enriches the human experience. Given Britain’s history as a colonial power in China, MCI is keen to help educate the British public about that shared past, and to oppose Orientalist (and Occidentalist) knowledge production about China. While embracing differences, therefore, we also celebrate our common humanity. The University of Manchester is committed to academic independence and the freedom of speech. The views speakers present are entirely their own, and do not represent those of the University of Manchester or MCI.
