Abstract: International Chinese textbooks, as key media for both language instruction and cultural communication, directly influence the effectiveness of developing international Chinese education in the new era through the ways they present Chinese culture. This paper examines four dimensions: the relationship between Chinese culture and international Chinese textbooks, a chronological overview of the presentation of Chinese culture in such textbooks, existing problems and challenges, and strategies for reconstruction. Based on this analysis, it proposes reconstruction strategies that shift the presentation of Chinese culture in international Chinese textbooks from instrumental communication to value-oriented dialogue, aiming to advance international Chinese education toward fostering civilizational dialogue in support of building a community with a shared future for mankind.
