Böcker i Journal of Chinese Philosophy Supplement-serien

Chinese Philosophy: New Directions and Interdisciplinary Perspectives presents the distinctive insights of Chinese philosophy and their relevance to contemporary issues in a range of areas: moral philosophy, social and political philosophy, metaphysics, epistemology, environmental ethics, medicine, and psychological health.

The Journal of Chinese Philosophy initiates this volume on the origins of philosophy and their relations in philosophical languages, be it Chinese or Greek or European as not merely derived from the Greek.

Leading Chinese and Western philosophers work alongside one another to explore the writings of one of the twentieth century's most perplexing and original ethical and metaphysical thinkers.

This volume is devoted to studying the emergence and flourishing of new humanistically informed developments in philosophical hermeneutics within contemporary Chinese philosophy.

The nine papers of this Supplement on these significant issues and important ideas are closely accentuated and critically discussed by well-established specialists, philosophers and historians, from various relevant disciplines of study.

Includes sixteen collected essays that examine Chinese Philosophy around 4 major topics. This book deepens the fundamental inquiries, including: What is philosophy? Is there more than one origin of philosophy? Have we embraced other traditions as well as integrated others into our own?

In Chinese tradition Confucianism has been always both a philosophy of moral self-cultivation for the human individual and an ideological guide for political institutional policy and governmental action.
