Dr Timothy Hildebrandt (associate professor of social policy at the LSE)
is again offering his course on Chinese social organisations this
coming August 6-17 at the LSE-PKU Summer School. In the course—which is
consistently ranked highest in student satisfaction
at the Summer School—students will gain a theoretical grounding in the
development of NGOs generally, as well as a deep empirical understanding
of how these organisations have developed in China.
The course is dynamic by design, responsive to the fast changing environment for NGOs in China; it is cutting edge in its discussion of new issues and exploration into concepts and theories to understand them. Particular attention is paid to emerging issues, such as changes in laws on registration, the precarious future of international NGOs, and the growth of government-organised NGOs (GONGOs) and social enterprises. Although no single issue area is the central focus, lectures and seminars will draw attention to environmental protection, public health, HIV/AIDS, elder care, labour, and LGBT rights, among others.
The intensive 2-week course is designed for a wide variety of students. In the past, the class has included advanced undergraduates, those just having completed their bachelors, masters students, PhD students, and career professionals in government, law, and business.
