Abstract
This paper deals with a particular discipline in Asian studies, namely, Chinese history, in the age of globalization. It includes a review of the writing of Chinese history in the traditional as well as in the modern time and an analysis of why and how to integrate the unique Chinese history into the universal human experiences of the past. The author argues that the homogenous world does not need a monotonous culture. Cultural pluralism would serve the global age well, and Chinese history should be able to facilitate mutual understanding among nations in the age of globalization.
