This Key Concepts pivot considers the fundamental Chinese cultural
ideal of harmony (he/ ). Historically originating from
Confucianism, the concept of harmony sits at the heart of Chinese
traditional culture, which is characteristically morality-based and
harmony-conscious due to the central role of pragmatic reason and
wisdom nurtured through Confucianism, Daoism, Mohism, Legalism and
other schools of thought. This pivot delineates the rationale of
the Chinese philosophy of harmony and its implications for modern
social practices worldwide. It notably reexamines the relevance of
he beyond the realm of philosophy, and how this concept can impact
on modern day human relations, amongst individuals and families as
well as on a wider societal scale. It explores how he can affect
perspectives on political interaction, international relations and
human conflict, as well as the interaction between man and nature.
Addressing the inevitable tension between theory and practice, this
book argues for the very real relevance of he in 21st century
cultural, social, political and economic spheres in China and
beyond.
