Research Status and Future Prospects of Cultural Communication in Contemporary International Student Education in China

The dissemination of Chinese culture to international students in China encompasses two closely interconnected dimensions: first, the dissemination aimed at international students to cultivate their understanding and recognition of the core values of Chinese culture; second, the dissemination of Chinese culture by international students themselves, which involves creating a diversified platform to effectively communicate China’s narratives. From the perspective of external cultural dissemination, this study employs a literature research method combined with CiteSpace knowledge mapping software to analyze and summarize the research network, hotspots, and knowledge structure within the field of international education in China. The exploration of future development directions presents significant practical value and contemporary relevance.
