The digital lecture booklet of the NMS Inaugural lecture: Modernity & Mandarinism is now available on the website! The booklet contains the essential points and information from the Inaugural New Mandarinate School lecture in a readable and accessible form. It gives people a sense of what the NMS is all about and shows them some of the type of content that is contained in the 10-part mandarinisation course that we offer.
The digital booklet:
defines what the school is and what its purposes and values are;
provides legitimation of and justification for the school’s approach to education and knowledge;
defines what the content will be relating to themes and issues of knowledge and power, society and government, the humanities and social sciences, ‘mandarinisation’ and cratology/’democratology’, etc.;
presents some of the best quality knowledge available from the past and today related to these themes and issues (deeper analysis reserved for lectures post the Inaugural).
The booklets are $24. Hop on over to the Store section of the website to purchase one now or buy one in hard copy form at the public lectures!
