To form a truer portrait of Northeast Asian perspectives on
modernity, this book presents a broad range of analyses from
philosophical and political-philosophical scholars specializing in
the region. It considers the encounter between "Western" modernity
and "Eastern" tradition not as a simple clash of cultures, but as a
generative and hybridizing process of negotiation. It examines the
concrete manifestations of modernity in various intellectual and
political movements that attempted to radically restructure
Northeast Asian societies. And through these situated perspectives,
it rethinks and redefines the idea of "modernity" itself,
challenging and presenting alternatives to Western-centric thinking
on the topic. This book will be of particular interest to political
philosophers, political theorists, comparative philosophers,
regional specialists in East Asia, and all scholars grappling with
the perplexities of global "modernity."
