Light Center research grant awarded to business professors
°´¡³¢´¡²Ñ´¡´Ü°¿°¿â€”Dr. Bernard Han and Dr. Andrew Targowski, Â鶹´«Ã½ professors of business information systems, were recently awarded the third annual Timothy Light Center for Chinese Studies Research Grant for their book project, "Chinese Civilization in the 21st Century."
Â鶹´«Ã½ the project
Han and Targowski will receive $3,000 to publish a book—in both the English and Chinese languages. The volume provides a comprehensive historical review, inspection and evaluation of the state of Chinese civilizations in the 21st century in times of accelerated globalization, and how that will impact worldwide dynamics now and into the future.
An interdisciplinary team composed of researchers from the United States, China and Europe (Poland), will contribute to the project to achieve a balance in approaches and judgments. It will compare Chinese civilizations to global counterparts in the areas of historiography, political science, culture study, economics and technology.
