Böcker av Henry Rosemont

Against the background of the events of June 4th, the author proffers a more general analysis and evaluation of the economic "reforms" initiated by the Party leadership in 1978. Using China as a case study, he also introduces an ethical model of development for agrarian societies.

This book is both a critique of the concept of the rights-holding, free, autonomous individual and attendant ideology dominant in the contemporary West, and an account of an alternative view, that of the role-bearing, interrelated responsible person of classical Confucianism, suitably modified for addressing the manifold problems of today.
