Long dismissed as irrelevant by communist China, Confucianism is
experiencing a new resurgence in China and around the globe.
So-called New Confucianists seek to find a unity between their
religion and the modern world, rejecting any form of cultural
isolationism. Founded in China 2,500 years ago by a master
philosopher, Confucianism was a system of ethical behavior and
social responsibility that evolved into one of the great spiritual
traditions of the East. It has played a profoundly important role
in the evolution of Chinese civilization over the centuries and has
had a marked influence on other Asian cultures including those of
Vietnam, Korea, and Japan. ""Confucianism, Third Edition"" clearly
outlines the historical development of Confucianism, presents the
basic tenets of Confucian thought, traces its evolution in response
to the events of Chinese history, and examines its enduring
relevance to the contemporary world. Coverage includes: basic
concepts and beliefs of Confucianism; the teachings of Confucius;
Confucian literature, including The Five Classics; the effects of
political interference from China, Europe, and the United States;
and restoration of Confucianism in the 21st century.
