Weili Zhao obtained her Ph.D. from the University of Wisconsin-Madison, USA in 2015 and is currently an Assistant Professor in the Department of Curriculum and Instruction at the Chinese University of Hong Kong. With intellectual training in both discourse analysis and curriculum studies, she is interested in unpacking China’s current educational thinking and practices at the nexus, and as the (dis)assemblage, of tradition and modernity, East and West. Specifically, her research explicates the historical-cultural-philosophical insights of Chinese knowledge, curriculum, and educational thinking to hopefully dialogue with, for mutual informing and clarifications, the latest intellectual turns (say, the linguistic, body, cultural, study, affect turns) in the Western scholarship.
