Confucian Liberalism sheds new light on this long-standing debate entwined with the discourse of Chinese modernity. Focusing on the legacy of Mou Zongsan, the book significantly recasts the moral character and political ideal of Confucianism, accompanied by a Hegelian retreatment of the multiple facets of Western modernity and its core values, such as individuality, self-realization, democracy, civilized society, citizenship, public good, freedom, and human rights. The book offers a culturally sensitive way of reevaluating liberal language and forges a reconciliation between the two extremes of anti-Confucian liberalism and anti-liberal Confucianism. The result-Confucian liberalism-is akin to civil liberalism, in that it rests the form of liberal democracy on the content of \"Confucian democratic civility.\" It is also comparable to perfectionist liberalism, endorsing a nondominant concept of the common good surrounded by a set of \"Confucian governing and civic virtues.\"\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"State University of New York Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48958967480555,"sku":"00000_00000_00000_00000","price":190.44,"currency_code":"SGD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/kinokuniya.com.sg\/products\/9781438491110","provider":"Books Kinokuniya Singapore","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
