Incontro con la Cina: una panoramica geopolitica sui rapporti diplomatici tra Italia e Cina

On Monday, November 9 from 9.00 am the Opening Webinar for the first edition of the "Issues on China - Innovation, Society, and Culture" Seasonal School took place online. The webinar, titled "Incontro con la Cina: una panoramica geopolitica sui rapporti diplomatici tra Italia e Cina", was an incredible opportunity for reflection and discussion on the complexity of contemporary China through the eyes and experience of the Italian Diplomats. Please, find HERE the full program of the opening webinar.

LEARNING OBJECTIVES

The 'Issues on China' Seasonal School is a five-day dynamic and intensive program, that offers an introduction to economic, social, political, and legal aspects of modern China through the lens of leading research activities promoted by Sant’Anna Institutes.

Participants will have the opportunity to develop the necessary background to comprehend some of major China's issues while emphasizing the traditional and modern roots of contemporary China.

The seasonal school aims at promoting the knowledge of the role of the People’s Republic of China, within the new global order and its role in the reconfiguration of international relations from different perspectives.

This Seasonal School is dedicated to the memory of the former Consul General of Italy in Chongqing, Filippo Nicosia. This decision stems from the desire to celebrate and remember the commitment and passion Mr. Nicosia employed in weaving relations between Italy and the People's Republic of China during his mandate in Chongqing - the key city of Sant'Anna School's relations with China.

Mr. Nicosia has always been very close to Sant'Anna School and the Galileo Galilei Italian Institute in Chongqing.

PROGRAM

The 40 hours-long School will be characterized by a strong interdisciplinary approach and will be focused on the encounter with people, countries, ways of thinking, and systems connected with China. In other words, in order to guarantee the pluralism of disciplinary and intellectual perspectives, the seasonal school will explore aspects related to the phenomenon of tourism, geopolitical and international relation issues, technology transfer, and legal systems.

The School will be complemented by an introductory course in the elementary Chinese language. The course will be held by Chinese professional native-speaking instructors, already well-experienced in training students. Participants will develop basic language skills and will move their first steps towards a more complete training.
