It has been at home both in the political arsenal of the left and the right and has had special significance in ethical and political debates in modern and modernizing cultures.  This text will be of interest to philosophers interested in Chinese philosophy and issues related to individualism and communitarianism, ethicists and political philosophers, comparative philosophers, and those in religious studies working on Chinese religion. 410 0$aPhilosophical Studies in Contemporary Culture,$x2215-1753 ;$v23 606 $aPhilosophy, Modern 606 $aPolitical science 606 $aPolitical science$xPhilosophy 606 $aPhilosophical Traditions 606 $aPolitical Theory 606 $aPolitical Philosophy 615 0$aPhilosophy, Modern. 615 0$aPolitical science. 615 0$aPolitical science$xPhilosophy. 615 14$aPhilosophical Traditions. 615 24$aPolitical Theory. 615 24$aPolitical Philosophy. 676 $a181.112 702 $aSolomon$b David$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 702 $aLo$b P.C$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910484417603321 996 $aThe Common Good: Chinese and American Perspectives$92848426 997 $aUNINA
