A New Outline of Pedagogy, stands as a pivotal work in 20th-century Chinese educational studies, this book challenges conventional educational discourse through a Marxist lens, offering a critical reevaluation of education's essence, evolution, and societal role.
Rooted in historical materialism, the text rejects idealized notions of education as sacred, neutral, or independent. Instead, it defines education as a superstructure-one of the fields of ideological labour-shaped by economic systems and class dynamics. Li argues that education's original purpose, facilitating collective social survival in primitive communist societies, was transformed with the emergence of private property and class divisions. This transformation gave rise to five defining features of class-based education: the separation of learning and labor, educational rights tied to property ownership, service to ruling-class interests, antagonism between dominant and marginalized educational systems, and gender inequality in access and content.
