    La estética de la vida (生活美学) es un término de creación reciente que surge en China como respuesta a los nuevos estilos de vida y como un intento de recuperación de las raíces estéticas que caracterizaban la cotidianidad en la cultura china tradicional. Este artículo tiene dos propósitos: contextualizar y analizar las características de esta subdisciplina y buscar su precedente en la estética práctica de Li Zehou.
