20. Sharing China with the World: 2015

Around a month after Chinese President Xi Jinping’s visit to the UK, a major conference, the 2nd Global China Dialogue, was held at the British Academy’s Wolfson Auditorium — overlooking The Mall, not far from where the Chinese leader passed well-wishers on his arrival in London.

Part of a wide series of events during the 2015 UK-China Year of Cultural Exchange, the summit featured some of the most important thinkers and influencers in China-related matters. Transculturality, urbanisation and the Internet, sociology, and many other topics, were discussed.

David took part in the event not just part of the organising team, but also as Speaker and Discussant. He discussed and offered his views on topics being discussed in the Civilised Dialogue – Transcultural and Comparative panel, then he gave his own presentation, Urbanisation and the Fabric of China’s Internet.
