In Tang Junyi: Confucian Philosophy and the Challenge of Modernity , Thomas Fröhlich examines Tang Junyi's intellectual reaction to a time of cataclysmic change marked by two Chinese revolutions (1911 and 1949), two world wars, the Cold War period, rapid modernization in East Asia, and the experience of exile. The present study fundamentally questions widespread interpretations that depict modern Confucianism as essentially traditionalist and nationalistic. Thomas Fröhlich shows that Tang Junyi actually challenges such interpretations with an insightful understanding of the modern individual?s vulnerability, as well as a groundbreaking reinterpretation of Confucianism as the civil-theological foundation for liberal democracy in China. 410 0$aModern Chinese Philosophy$v13. 606 $aPhilosophy, Chinese 606 $aPhilosophy, Confucian 606 $aCivilization, Modern 615 0$aPhilosophy, Chinese. 615 0$aPhilosophy, Confucian. 615 0$aCivilization, Modern. 676 $a181/.112 700 $aFro?hlich$b Thomas$f1966-$0183093 801 0$bNL-LeKB 801 1$bNL-LeKB 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910251455003321 996 $aTang Junyi$91898619 997 $aUNINA
