Abstract

[As mentioned earlier, this book applies the research perspective to the concept of “vigor.” One of the purposes is to overcome the shortage of “transplanted schools” and “experienced schools,” and thereby search for theoretical inspirations from the culture and daily lives of the Chinese. Why does this book find “vigor,” a complicated and rather ambiguous concept at the end, while we could apply related Chinese cultural concepts? What connotation does “vigor” have in Chinese culture and how did this connotation evolve? What is the relationship between “vigor” and contentious politics? What are the similarities and differences between “vigor” and Western social theories? To answer these questions, we need to start with the research on Chinese social activities.]
