Abstract: | Architectural education in China has a very short history compared with western countries. Architecture in Chinese history was never regarded as a discipline that required formal education, and this, combined with an extremely turbulent political and economic environment for the last half century, has led to the modernisation process of Chinese architecture experiencing a very unusual and twisted development. This paper deals with this particular condition in the hope of shedding some light on the discussion of contemporary Chinese architecture. |
