China and the Founding of the United States: The Influence of Traditional Chinese Civilization is available at the top four univerities, including Harvard University, Yale University, University of Pensylvania and Columbia Univerity. In this boo, Dr. Dave Wang, the author, examines how the U.S. Founding Fathers were influenced and inspired by Chinese agriculture, architecture, and philosophy. China, then one of the most stable and powerful civilizations in the world, offered unique perspectives on various aspects of society which were distinct from the Founding Fathers’ European heritage. China provided an alternative set of social and political frameworks which supported the Founding Fathers’ efforts to craft a unique heritage for their young nation. These Founders sought to establish a political identity that was distinct from European aristocratic traditions. More information is available through this link.
