Academic experience
As a Sinologist, Professor Gosset wrote extensively on China’s transformation and its global impact.[6]
He studies the notion of the "Chinese Renaissance".[7] In his approach of China (中国 - ZHONG GUO) he insists on the importance of the notion of centrality 中-(ZHONG): "Zhong -- 中, or centrality -- is one of the most ancient and common Chinese characters and, in an analogy which sheds a light on China's global modus operandi, its polysemy in the Chinese historical and cultural context mirrors three important measures of centrality in the field of graph theory".[8]
Teaching Experiences
Fluent in French, English, and Chinese, Gosset lectured at Johns Hopkins University in Washington D.C., for the French institution Ecole Nationale d’Administration (ENA) and for large multinational corporations at the top of the Fortune 500 list. [9] [10]
