Abstract

Over the centuries, China has developed its own system of knowledge and values. In the mid-19th century, this system faced a serious challenge as a result of a clash with the Western civilization. In order to survive, China needed to borrow the Western knowledge, to change the education system and even to transform its basic worldview. The article discusses the importance of the formation of the history of Chinese philosophy for the transformation of the views and values of the Chinese society in the early 20th century.
