Abstract
The studies of Chinese Islam by worldwide academic society are consisted of two schools, “western” and “Japanese”. I will focus my research “The studies of Chinese Islam by European and American Academic Society”. In this paper, mainly related to the research situation since the 21the century. Since the 2000’s, the study of Chinese Islam and Muslim in the West has become more and more prosperous,however, there is little understanding of these works in the World research community. we should also see that Chinese Islamic studies are still in a relatively marginal position in western academic circles. Chinese Islam and culture are a part of the world’s Islam and culture. on the other hand, they are part of Chinese culture. Chinese Muslims are also dividing into Uyghur, Kazak of Turkic language family, and Hui of Chinese language family. It is of great significance to understand Chinese Islam. According to the perspective of academic history, there have been some research results in this area. In this paper, mainly from “Research opportunities under the background”, “About ‘Muslim Confucian’ studies”, “Academic works based on field work”, “Research in the political field”, “Research on religion, ethnicity, and Culture” topics for research. The carding and analysis of these research results is conductive to the development of the world’s research on Chinese Islam.

Summary
This pertains to the need to recognize the difference between civilizations, emphasize the dialog between religions, and advocate promoting mutual understanding of human society based on seeking common ground while reserving differences. Tu Weiming criticizes Huntington's perspective and believes that the “clash of civilizations” is not the mainstream of the world's cultural development He asserts that Huntington's understanding of culture is very one-sided, standing on a narrow political standpoint, reflecting the unhealthy mentality of some people in American society after the end of the Cold War. the theory of "Clash of Civilizations” has had considerable influence, and this kind of thought is still developing, its influence will be increasingly weaker in the future, because its rationale is questionable. Facing the 21st century, there should be more communication and exchange between different ethnic groups and different civilization systems to form a global “dialog of civilizations” between various products of Eastern and Western civilizations These encompass Hinduism, Islamism, and Jainism in East Asia and South Asia, Confucianism, Taoism and Mahayana Buddhism in China, Judaism, and Christianity. On the basis of Islam and Islamic theology, philosophy, ethics, and politics, Wang Daiyu and Liu Zhi’s thoughts were created by critically absorbing Confucianism, especially Neo-Confucianism in the Song and Ming dynasties
