课程名称：《理解中国，1700-2000：数据分析方法（第一部分）》 课程概述：本课程旨在通过对新开放的中国档案资料进行大数据集的创建与分析，总结中国历史和社会科学的新方向，并以此组织知识，以便在比较视角下促进对中国的学习。本课程展示了如何通过探索性的新学术研究重新定义现代中国及其历史的独特性。当前人类历史和社会理论的大部分理解是基于西方经验，或是通过西方视角来看待非西方经验。本课程提供了来自过去三百年中国经验的替代视角。 第一部分（本课程）重点关注比较的不平等和机会，讨论两个相关问题：“谁会走上巅峰？”和“谁获得了什么？” 课程模块包括： 1. **导入与模块1：晚清社会结构与教育** - 在开始模块1的内容之前，请观看课程概述视频，查看作业与评分页面，并与其他学习者做自我介绍。 2. **模块2：当代中国的教育与社会流动** 3. **模块3：晚清与当代中国的社会流动与财富分配** 4. **模块4：20世纪中国的财富分配与政权更替** 5. **期末考试与告别** - 测试对整个课程的理解，完成期末考试和课程反馈调查。 第二部分（见链接）将转向一个可能更重要的问题：“我们是谁？”以比较人口行为（死亡率、婚姻和生育）为框架，研究这些领域与经济条件和人类价值观的互动。这是因为死亡率和生育是根本且普遍的现象，历史上中西方在这些方面的差异同样显著，同时这些差异显示了人类行为和价值观的变迁。 课程概述视频链接：[点击观看](https://youtu.be/dzUPRyJ4ETk)

The purpose of this course is to summarize new directions in Chinese history and social science produced by the creation and analysis of big historical datasets based on newly opened Chinese archival holdings, and to organize this knowledge in a framework that encourages learning about China in comparative perspective. Our course demonstrates how a new scholarship of discovery is redefining what is singular about modern China and modern Chinese history. Current understandings of human history and social theory are based largely on Western experience or on non-Western experience seen through a Western lens. This course offers alternative perspectives derived from Chinese experience over the last three centuries. We present specific case studies of this new scholarship of discovery divided into two stand-alone parts, which means that students can take any part without prior or subsequent attendance of the other part. Part 1 (this course) focuses on comparative inequality and opportunity and addresses two related questions ‘Who rises to the top?’ and ‘Who gets what?’. Part 2 (https://www.coursera.org/learn/understanding-china-history-part-2) turns to an arguably even more important question ‘Who are we?’ as seen through the framework of comparative population behavior - mortality, marriage, and reproduction – and their interaction with economic conditions and human values. We do so because mortality and reproduction are fundamental and universal, because they differ historically just as radically between China and the West as patterns of inequality and opportunity, and because these differences demonstrate the mutability of human behavior and values.
