The ever-increasing interactions between the Chinese and the Western World result in fast-paced global transitions. The series has been created to capture these developments, presenting monographs and collections on the Chinese-Western Discourse in the humanities. It features outstanding contributions reflecting current debates in philosophy, cultural theory, literature and religion. All contributions are peer reviewed.

This compilation employs interdisciplinary perspectives to explore the historical interactions between central Europe and China. It presents a comparative cultural analysis of issues related to language, literature and culture, scientific traditions, conceptions of the law, economic, social and political systems, values and philosophical foundations. These historical analyses also develop perspectives for future Chinese-German collaboration.
