Virtue Ethics and Confucianism

<p>This volume presents the fruits of an extended dialogue among American and Chinese philosophers concerning the relations between virtue ethics and the Confucian tradition. Based on recent advances in English-language scholarship on and translation of Confucian philosophy the book demonstrates that cross-tradition stimulus challenge and learning are now eminently possible. Anyone interested in the role of virtue in contemporary moral philosophy in Chinese thought or in the future possibilities for cross-tradition philosophizing will find much to engage with in the twenty essays collected here.</p>
