| Item Description: | In communist China children are treated like jugs to be filled selectively with knowledge and attitudes approved by the Party not, as in the Western ideal, like candles to be lit and inspired by fresh ideas and encouraged in their individual creativity. Inevitably, modernisation today requires Western know-how but the Chinese protect their children from foreign cultural influence which they call 'spiritual pollution'. Their aim is a combination of national spirit with Western technology. A challenge of foreign influences is met by a new emphasis on home-grown traditions. |
