| Summary: | Reports on a two-week study tour of The People's Republic of China designed to learn about care-giving practices in the church and the wider Chinese society and to identify possible ways of increasing collaboration between Chinese and Western care-givers. Offers observations and opinions on the historic and contemporary differences between the two cultures in a variety of areas—e.g. modes of doing pastoral care, shame versus guilt cultures, social justice and treatment of women, holistic tendencies in thinking—and opines that despite wide differences there are good possibilities for future communication and collaboration between the pastoral care deliverers of the two societies. |
