Category: Social Science

Tamney and Chiang explore the impact of the modernization of Chinese societies--mainland China, Singapore, and Taiwan--and the emergence of a global society on Confucianism. The division of Confucianism into traditionalist and modernist forms is examined as well as the extent of convergence of Confucianism and Western ideologies.
