Learning from Chinese Philosophies - Ethics of Interdependent and Contextualised Self (Hardcover, New Ed)

Learning from Chinese Philosophies engages Confucian and Daoist philosophies in creative interplay, developing a theory of interdependent selfhood in the two philosophical traditions. Karyn Lai draws on the unique insights of the two philosophies to address contemporary debates on ethics, community, and government. The issues discussed include questions on selfhood, attachment, moral development, government, culture, and tradition, and feminist queries regarding biases and dualism in ethics. Throughout the book, Lai demonstrates that Chinese philosophies embody novel and insightful ideas for addressing contemporary issues and problems.
