Description

Learning from Chinese Philosophies explores Confucian and Daoist traditions to develop a comprehensive theory of interdependent selfhood that challenges Western philosophical assumptions. Karyn Lai examines how these ancient philosophical systems address contemporary debates on ethics, community, and government whilst engaging with modern questions about moral development, cultural identity, and feminist critiques of dualism in ethical theory. The book draws on unique insights from both traditions to offer practical and conceptual resources for understanding human relationships, social responsibility, and the nature of the self within interconnected communities. Published by Routledge as part of the Ashgate World Philosophies Series, this work bridges classical Chinese thought with current philosophical discourse, providing readers with alternative frameworks for addressing issues of attachment, tradition, governance, and the formation of moral character in interdependent societies.
