Conclusion:A picture of ChinaConclusion:A picture of China
Rather than being a closed society, China has almost been a society open to outside influence, and ' Chinese ' culture and society cannot be understood in isolation from the outside world. In other words, China cannot be treated as a special case of an isolated society, but rather as part of a changing regional and global culture.
The modern China every one sees today is a complex mixture of indigenous social influences and customs and external influences, often, but not always , from the west.
Please don't understand how China has developed simply through following elite politics and leaders and their conflicts. Instead, please look at continuities as well as changes in how the Chinese have come to modernity ,and the impact of change on society and culture as a whole.
