It analyses how traditional Chinese values, Eastern and Western curricular approaches, and socio-political, economic, cultural and demographic changes influence current policies, services and practice. It addresses responses to global concerns about the excluded and disadvantaged, and about quality, and explains lessons from and for Chinese early childhood education. This book is the first English-language research-based review of early childhood education and the factors that affect it in different Chinese societies. It is particularly timely given the increased recognition of the importance of early childhood education for human capital development globally, and the international interest in understanding early education in Chinese societies. 000779252 650_0 $$aEarly childhood education$$zChina. 000779252 650_0 $$aEarly childhood education$$zEast Asia. 000779252 7001_ $$aRao, Nirmala. 000779252 7001_ $$aZhou, Jing. 000779252 7001_ $$aSun, Jin. 000779252 77608 $$iPrint version:$$tEarly childhood education in Chinese societies.$$d[Dordrecht, The Netherlands] : Springer, 2017$$z9402410031$$z9789402410037$$w(OCoLC)959034014 000779252 830_0 $$aInternational perspectives on early childhood education and development ;$$vvolume 19. 000779252 852__ $$bebk 000779252 85640 $$3SpringerLink$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=http://link.springer.com/10.1007/978-94-024-1004-4$$zOnline Access$$91397441.1 000779252 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:779252$$pGLOBAL_SET 000779252 980__ $$aEBOOK 000779252 980__ $$aBIB 000779252 982__ $$aEbook 000779252 983__ $$aOnline 000779252 994__ $$a92$$bISE
