Confucian Ren and Feminist Ethics of Care

Integrating Relational Self, Power, and Democracy

• Gebundenes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

Confucian traditions have ingrained gender stratifications in Chinese culture today. Yuan proposes re-reading early Confucian texts as a vision of Ren with Dao with the unity of heaven, earth, and humanity, in order to reclaim the egalitarian aspects and develop openness for gender equity with integration of feminist critical care ethics.
