article purposes and educational purposes
In the previous post I considered the various categories of documents i might look at. Here i continue to work along those lines and see which overarching important documents I can find that fit into each category. again i need a convincing, tight and rigorous argument for the selection of these documents--
--related to overall national plans for education and development
1. by virtue of the fact that the document lays out a macro plan for education development
2. by virtue of guiding thought and philosophy
3. documents were chosen based on seminality. the documents chosen had to have national implications and there needs to be evidence that these documents are broadly studied and generate subsequent documents? measures of this include: an annoucement from the ministry of education that requires that individuals and organizations at all levels of the education sector study the document. The dcoument or speech was reprinted in the people's daily. the document is included as fundamental reading in teacher training materials.
type one: national plans for overall educational development
2007教育部关于学习、宣传和全面贯彻《国家教育事业发展“十一五”规划纲要》的通知 Text of speech

type two: speeches by the president about education that have been disseminated for wider study or that were given at a national conference on educational development.
2006中共教育部党组关于学习贯彻胡锦涛总书记讲话精神切实加强社会主义荣辱观教育的通知 (the ministry of education requires everyone to study the speech of Hu Jintao regarding strengthening socialist education)

1998江泽民在庆祝北京大学建校一百周年大会上的讲话 (could include as this also is an example of jzm ideas about education--it is likely slanted towards higher education)
1989 Deng Xiaoping's talk "China will tolerate no disturbances"
1985 Deng Xiaoping's talk at the National Conference on Education "Devote Special Effort to Education"

1978 Deng Xiaoping's talk at the National Conference on Education

type three: basic education seminal documents
2001基础教育课程改革纲要（试行）
2001教育部关于印发《义务教育课程设置实验方案》的通知
1999中小学心理健康教育指导纲要
type four: higher education seminal documents
211 工程
type five: vocational education seminal documents
type six: rural education seminal documetns
type seven: minority educatoin seminal documents
type eight: documents regarding moral/political/ideological educational development
... on second thoughts i think that this complicates it again. i would like to concentrate on documents that have a national comprehenisve focus. but maybe keep the basic ed framework? maybe find a main higher ed doc? maybe find voced doc and a minority ed doc and a rural ed doc.???
i am at a loss once again and perhaps this is the stage to start trying to focus on my theory development. i need a solid question... a question that will stay with me and be stable throughout.
do i want to stay with the purposes of education? that seems far too philosophical. it feels like i would need to read dewey again. i could think back to landegg courses? to my curriculum theory course?
it seems quite related to a discussion that is far beyond me and that is the socialism vs. capitalism dilemma in chinese ideological thought. the socialism capitalism tension was addressed by deng xiaoping in early redefinitions of mao zedong thought, and of communist/socialist ideology, his travels around the south to investigate the effects of the reforms, his black cat/white cat analogy. he also had to face this dilemma in coming up with a way to deal with the student uprsings in the late 1980s. jiang zemin had to also negotiate the party line and increasing marketization and the three represents apparently conveys ideas along these lines as well.
so what does this have to do with educational purpose? is the educational purpose under the premise of capitalism different from the educational purpose under the premise of socialism? what would be different about it? this sounds like a very sociological question.
do the critical theorists have anything to say about any of this? can bowles and gintis be use at all, social reproduction theory?
i need to include the andreas article in my literature review/theoretical framework section.
