How Australia is Studied in China
China has arguably the largest community of Australian studies in the world. However, not much is known about this phenomenon, including its emergence, rationale, interests, influences, and the implications for strategic Australia-China engagement in a region of increasing challenge and uncertainty.

In doing so, it penetrates the representation and essence of this phenomenon to seek both the ‘Australianness’ and the ‘Chineseness’ in it.

Mental Health in East Asia
This pioneering monograph examines how culture informs popular understandings and experiences of mental health in East Asia, as well as providing resolutions for the future. Questions about mental health problems have gained new urgency as their consequences are growing more visible in East Asia. Yet, our understanding, funding, and evidence has not kept pace.

Chapters explore themes such as cultural beliefs about mental health, the role of social support and social media, and mental health stigma.Drawing on the latest quantitative evidence, network science, and novel qualitative data, this book paints a portrait of mental health in the region and articulates culturally sensitive policies and practices tailored for East Asian cultures that improve mental health experiences.
Perspectives on Plagiarism in China
This book examines the issue of plagiarism in the Chinese context of history and education, both in classical and contemporary times. In view of the effort on a global scale to fight against plagiarism and consolidating anti-plagiarism education, this book examines how plagiarism is conceptualized and addressed in the Confucian Heritage Culture society of China. Employing qualitative content analysis, genre analysis, and discourse analysis to examine Chinesemedium textual materials of different kinds, this book offers new perspectives on the question of plagiarism in China. These textual materials include classic and ancient Chinese books, modern newspapers in China (1840–1949), academic literature, correspondence texts on plagiarism cases, and textbooks published in China on Chinese and English academic writing. Inspiring future research and educational initiatives aimed at addressing the problem of plagiarism in the contemporary world, this book will appeal to students and scholars of education, Chinese history, and Asian studies.
Modernization in Eastern Tibet
Using ethnographic materials and documents from East Tibetan villages, this book addresses the impact of modernization on everyday life and the ways in which it melds with traditional forms of knowledge to create a new Tibetan identity and scientific rationality. Including cases centred on meteorology, geography, and seismology, the book assesses a wide range of traditional local activities, including foraging, farming, and domestic practices, and argues that and demonstrates how science, technology, and ideas about modernity have all influenced these activities. It highlights that when inconsistencies among different knowledges emerge, modernization can create inconsistent assemblages of modern and traditional practices and reveal the multiplicity of everyday life. Using these examples of everyday life to portray the complexity of day-to-day existence in Tibet, this book will be of huge interest to students and scholars of Tibet, China, human geography, anthropology, and the sociology of science and technology.
