Book Donation Project of BFSU -- Introduction:

In Sept. 2013, a group of four Chinese Canadian writers visited Beijing Foreign Studies University to give a roundtable talk on their individual writing as well as Chinese Canadian literature in general. This meeting not only left a very pleasant impression on both sides but inspired a book donation project that soon involved dozens of writers and scholars on the other side of the Pacific. Initiated by Denise Chong, writer and former senior advisor to Canadian Prime Minister Pierre Trudeau, this project was warmly embraced by Chinese Canadian authors such as Judy Fong Bates, Paul Yee, Anthony Chan, to name a few, and scholars interested in Chinese Canadian Studies such as John Price and Pat Parungao. The Canadian Studies program of the University of Toronto and several publishers including Random House also made generous contributions.

Under the efficient organization of Jim Wong-Chu, poet, historian and founding member of the Asian Canadian Writers’ Workshop, nearly 300 books, films and journals were gathered from across Canada and sent across the ocean. They are now shelved in a special section within the China Canadian Studies Resource Centre at the University Library of BFSU, accessible to readers all over the country. Hopefully they will provide a much needed resource for Canadianists in China and give rise to many scholarly writings and ideas.

About the Canadian Studies Centre

The Canadian Studies Centre of BFSU was founded in early 1980s. A number of scholars, Prof. Wu Zhenfu, Yuan Henian and Zhang Yun, offered courses on Canada and published papers and attended international conferences on Canadian studies. In 2006, the Centre was re-activated and an graduate program on Canadian Studies was initiated in 2007, the first of its kind in Chinese universities.

The Centre offers a unique opportunity for the study of Canada from a variety of perspectives.It has currently 9 faculty members and 9 adjunct and guest professors. Major areas of research and teaching include Canadian politics and foreign policy, Canadian social and public policy, Canadian economic development, and Canadian literature and culture. We offer two undergraduate courses on Canada and 9 graduate courses for the Canadian Studies program.

The Centre is active in the circle of Canadian Studies in China. It has successfully hosted the 14th ACSC biennial conference, The 9th Canada-China Energy and Environment Forum and a number of other international conferences and symposiums. Faculty members have successfully completed national and ministerial-level research projects, published on Canadian foreign policy, China-Canada relations, Canadian literature and culture and other areas on Canadian Studies. With the support of the Canadian Embassy, we have set up the “China Canadian Studies Resource Centre” in 2011, sharing academic resources with Canadianists in China.

The Centre has established extensive collaboration with Canadian institutions like University of British Columbia, University of Toronto, McGill University, University of Alberta, York University etc. We regularly invite guest speakers from Canadian universities and research institutions to give lectures or offer mini-courses to the students. Almost every Canadian Ambassador to China made BFSU the first university in China to visit and give speech at.

In 2011, the Centre was entitled by the Ministry of Education as the National Research Base for Area Studies (Canada).
