Abstract: China has attracted a huge amount of interest from around the world over the last two decades because of its rapid and vigorous economic development. This growth has brought with it significant social and structural changes, which have influenced Chinese people’s lives in many different ways. While this chapter will focus on how this has had an impact on learning by older people, in particular by older men, it is important to stress at the outset that research based on gender, and of older men’s learning in particular, is not common. This is an explora-tory chapter seeking to define the field for future research for possible international comparisons
