Encyclopedia of India–China Cultural Contacts v1.c2.2

v1.c2.2

This Encyclopedia reinforces the approach of “connected histories” and seeks to identify encounters and linkages that have facilitated the mutual enrichment and growth of our two cultures and societies. Therefore its focus has been on Movement (of people/ ideas/ objects), Interaction (nature and sites of interaction), and Incorporation (processes of acculturation/ adaptation/reaction). In the context of the present, the backdrop of this shared experience will help us to fully understand and appreciate the truly boundless possibilities of continuing this journey together in today’s world.
