It creates new paradigms for an understanding of humanism that meets the demands of our time. It begins by presenting European descriptions and critical assessments of this discourse, and then moves to an exploration of humanistic ideas shaped through historical developments in Asia, with a focus on the Chinese tradition. In this sense, the book is written from a transcivilizational perspective. The methods used in the research transcend---that is, surpass and overcome---the rigid, isolating, and essentialist concept of civilization. At the same time, the book points to the possibility of transformation through the exchange of knowledge and ideas between different civilizations. Within this framework, the book starts from the assumption that the ontology of civilizations and cultures is not based on immutable substances, but on the relations between different factors that constitute them as categories. The transcivilizational perspective rooted in transcultural dialogues between philosophies that originated in different cultures and civilizations is particularly valuable because of the globalized world in which we live today. This means that the problems that affect people in different parts of the world and the issues that are embedded in different geopolitical and developmental frameworks also affect all of humanity. This book is of particular interest to scholars and students of global ethics, globalization, Asian philosophy and Sinology. 410 0$aEmerging Globalities and Civilizational Perspectives,$x2731-0639 606 $aGlobalization 606 $aPhilosophy, Chinese 606 $aCulture 606 $aEthics 606 $aEthnology$xAsia 606 $aGlobalization 606 $aChinese Philosophy 606 $aSociology of Culture 606 $aMoral Philosophy and Applied Ethics 606 $aAsian Culture 615 0$aGlobalization. 615 0$aPhilosophy, Chinese. 615 0$aCulture. 615 0$aEthics. 615 0$aEthnology$xAsia. 615 14$aGlobalization. 615 24$aChinese Philosophy. 615 24$aSociology of Culture. 615 24$aMoral Philosophy and Applied Ethics. 615 24$aAsian Culture. 676 $a327.1 700 $aRosker$b Jana S$01748684 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910744503003321 996 $aHumanism in Trans-civilizational Perspectives$94181703 997 $aUNINA
