The Democracy of the Dead - Dewey, Confucius, and the Hope for Democracy in China

Will democracy figure prominently in China's future? If so, what kind of democracy? In this insightful and thought-provoking book, David Hall and Roger Ames explore such questions and, in the course of answering them, look to the ideas of John Dewey and Confucius.

Riassunto

This work asks, "Will democracy figure prominently in China's future?", and, "If so, what kind of democracy?". The authors draw upon the ideas of Dewey and Confucius to help address these questions. They suggest that it is a mistake to equate "modernization" for China with "westernization".
