The Rise of Confucian Citizens in China: Theoretical Reflections and Empirical Explorations: Routledge Contemporary China Series

Autor Canglong Wang
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 28 noi 2024
This book explores the relationship between Confucianism and citizenship and the rise of Confucian citizens in contemporary China.
Combining theoretical and empirical approaches to the topic, the book constructs new frameworks to examine the nuances and complexities of Confucianism and citizenship, exploring the process of citizen-making through Confucian education. By re-evaluating the concept of citizenship as a Western construct and therefore challenging the popular characterization of Confucianism and citizenship as incompatible, this book posits that a new type of citizen, the Confucian citizen, is on the rise in 21st-century China.
The book’s clear, accessible style makes it essential reading for students and scholars interested in citizenship, Confucianism and Chinese studies, and those with an interest in religion and philosophy more generally.

Recenzii

"
The Rise of Confucian Citizens in China explores key questions: How have Confucianism and citizenship, which are often perceived as contrasting traditions, coexisted in China over the past century? What new insights have emerged from their coexistence? This work offers persuasive answers, exploring the extent of compatibility between Confucianism and citizenship, the mechanisms facilitating this compatibility, and the outcomes of their integration. It not only provides fresh perspectives for the study of China’s politics, but also introduces novel considerations for the broader examination of citizenship."
Zhonghua GuoProfessor of Political Science at Nanjing University, China.
"Confucianism, with its emphasis on responsibilities rather than rights, seems to be incompatible with citizenship. This thought-provoking book argues otherwise. At the level of theory, Confucian ideals can enrich the concept of citizenship and Confucian-style education in China shows how this might be done in practice."
Daniel A. Bell, Chair Professor of Political Theory at the University of Hong Kong.
"This study significantly contributes to the academic discourse on educational sociology by providing a sophisticated examination of the emergence and implications of ‘Confucian citizens’ in China, illuminating the complex dynamics between traditional values and contemporary educational practices."
Zhenzhou ZhaoAssociate Professor in the Department of Curriculum and Instruction at the Education University of Hong Kong.
