Confucianism, Buddhism, Daoism, Christianity and Chinese Culture

Meer over het boek

This book collects the 10 most important articles written by Professor Tang, dealing extensively with issues of Confucianism, Buddhism, Daoism, Christianity and Chinese culture. In these articles, Professor Tang proves his value as a worthy successor to the Chinese philosophical tradition, while also open to the latest trends of thought both at home and abroad. Among his numerous innovations, Professor Tang is especially remembered for introducing the concept of "harmony in diversity". In the context of "the clash of civilizations" championed by Samuel P. Huntington, Tang argued for harmony in diversity, holding that this principle can offer some clues to help enable peoples, nations, and regions with different cultural traditions to develop together while remaining unique.
