Construction of Educational System of International Students in China from the Perspective of the Theory of Communicative Action

At present, the key mission of China's international student education lies in quality enhancement and efficiency optimization to achieve connotative high-quality development. The essence of educating international students constitutes a form of communicative action. To facilitate such communication, it is imperative to foster equal dialogue and cultivate mutual understanding and consensus. Drawing upon Habermas' Communicative Action Theory as the analytical framework, this paper first elucidates the core tenets of the theory. Subsequently, it identifies prominent issues in the current educational management of international students in China through the theoretical lens. By integrating theoretical analysis with practical considerations, the study proposes targeted solutions to address these challenges and establishes a systematic approach for optimizing China's international student education system.
