He ( ), or harmony, has traditionally been a central concept in
Chinese thought, and to this day continues to shape the way in
which people in China and East Asia think about ethics and
politics. Yet, there is no systematic and comprehensive
introduction of harmony as has been variously articulated in
different Chinese schools. This edited volume aims to fill this
gap. The individual contributions elaborate the conceptions of
harmony as these were exemplified in central Chinese schools of
thought, including Daoism, Confucianism, Legalism, Mohism,
Buddhism, and trace their impact on contemporary Chinese
philosophy. The volume explores the various meanings and
implications of harmony so as to consider its relevance as a value
and virtue in the modern world. It provides an accessible but
substantial introductory work for readers interested in learning
about pertinent core concepts and theories in Chinese thought, as
well as engages specialists in Chinese philosophy by explicating
its implications for ethical, political, epistemological, and
metaphysical reflection as the basic point of reference.
