  • Classical Confucian and Contemporary Feminist Perspectives on the Self

    Henry RosemontCHAPTERCulture and Self2018

    General, because of the growing multiplicity of historical, sociological, and philosophical perspectives that all come under the heading of contemporary feminism—perspectives that, at this stage of scholarship, are sometimes incompatible, rendering the term no longer univocal. There are Marxist, socialist, liberal, lesbian, and other patterns of feminist thought. Some equate gender and sex, most do not. Many feminist thinkers, however, would char…

  • The Chinese Classic of Family Reverence

    Henry Rosemont, Roger T AmesBOOKChinese Classic of Family Reverence2017

    Few if any philosophical schools have championed family values as persistently as the early Confucians, and a great deal can be learned by attending to what they had to say on the subject. In the Confucian tradition, human morality and the personal realization it inspires are grounded in the cultivation of family feeling. One may even go so far as to say that, for China, family reverence was a necessary condition for developing any of the other h…

    Open AccessRoger T Ames, Henry RosemontCHAPTERConfucian Role Ethics2016

    The institution of family has not received much attention from contemporary philosophers and theologians. Two contemporary exceptions to this generalization about the neglect of family and familial relations in Western moral philosophy are the late Susan Miller Okin and Joel Kupperman, both of whom have given long and careful attention to the role of this institution in their detailed treatments of justice and character respectively. The focus of…

  • Family Reverence (xiao 孝) in the Analects

    Open AccessRoger T Ames, Henry RosemontCHAPTERConfucian Role Ethics2016

    We begin this chapter on family reverence (xiao 孝) from the assumption that within the interpretive framework of the Analects, associated, interpersonal living is taken to be an uncontested, empirical fact. Every person lives and every event takes place within a vital natural, social, and cultural context. Association being a fact, our different roles lived within family and society are nothing more than the stipulation of specific modes of assoc…

  • Confucian Role Ethics

    Henry Rosemont, Henry Rosemont Jr et al.BOOKConfucian Role Ethics2016

    The essays collected in this volume establish Confucian role ethics as a term of art in the contemporary ethical discourse. The holistic philosophy presented here is grounded in the primacy of relationality and a narrative understanding of person, and is a challenge to a foundational liberal individualism that has defined persons as discrete, autonomous, rational, free, and often self-interested agents. Confucian role ethics begins from a relatio…

  • Against Individualism

    Henry Rosemont, Henry Rosemont JrBOOKAgainst Individualism2015

    The first part of Against Individualism: A Confucian Rethinking of the Foundations of Morality, Politics, Family, and Religion is devoted to showing how and why the vision of human beings as free, independent and autonomous individuals is and always was a mirage that has served liberatory functions in the past, but has now become pernicious for even thinking clearly about, much less achieving social and economic justice, maintaining democracy, or…

  • Whose Democracy? Which Rights? A Confucian Critique of Modern Western Liberalism

    Open AccessHenry RosemontCHAPTERConfucian Ethics2004

    One of the major reasons for engaging in comparative philosophical research is to make a small contribution to the intercultural dialogues that are becoming a more prominent part of international affairs, especially those dialogues that take up basic human issues such as democracy, human rights, and global justice – with the ultimate goal of these dialogues being to increase the probability that the over six billion human citizens of the global c…
