Richmond upon Thames

Philosophy - Chinese/British Culture

Monthly, 1st Friday, 10am - 12 noon in Whitton

Leader: %Wenlie Liang%

The world today is experiencing big changes with increasing influence from China in both economic and political issues. The old global structure formed after World War II seems to be disintegrating. One key to understanding these changes might be to compare eastern and western cultural backgrounds.

This group will discuss common interesting topics and compare Chinese and British cultural differences. It will be run by Dr Wenlie Liang, who is a retired Senior Scientific Researcher who has lived in China, Taiwan and Britain.

To register an interest or for any further information please contact either Dr %Wenlie Liang% on 07306 312 379 or David Knight on 07593 088 769
