Abstract

Background: Due to various factors, Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) in mainland China has been refashioned, as with TCM education. For higher education, the appropriation of TCM education is a crucial issue. Objective: The purpose of this paper is to analyze the factors that influence TCM educational appropriations. Approach: We use an attribution analysis approach, and take one TCM university as an example to discuss related issues. Result: The analysis consist four parts: 1) value choice, i.e. economic development changes the pattern of public consumption which leads to the blooming of health care industries, and the social trend of traditional culture revitalization make public to pay more attention to TCM and its education; 2) legitimacy, i.e. several government policies released to advocate TCM and its education; 3) feasibility, i.e. how the external executive organizations initiate TCM education research and teaching projects; 4) as a result, TCM educational appropriation is increased. Conclusion: The analytical framework provides effective analysis path to understand the TCM educational appropriations, and shed light on future TCM development policies and strategies.
