Confucian Ethics in Western Discourse brings Chinese philosophers
into dialogue with contemporary moral philosophers, identifying how
ancient Chinese philosophy can contribute to Western discussions of
moral philosophy. Covering the characteristics and significance of
the Confucian ethical tradition, this study introduces the main
concepts, discusses differing perspectives of moral dilemmas and
closely examines whether Confucian ethics should be considered as
virtue ethics in the Western tradition. Through analysis of the
meaning of virtues in Confucian ethics it draws comparison with
virtues in Aristotlelian moral philosophy, and offers an in-depth
review of the thought of Cheng Brothers in the Song Dynasty,
shedding light on current ethical issues. With careful textual
studies and philosophical perceptiveness, Confucian Ethics in
Western Discourse connects ancient Chinese thought and contemporary
problems in Western philosophy.
