Against Individualism: A Confucian Rethinking of the Foundations of Morality, Politics, Family, and Religion

by Henry Rosemont Jr. and Henry Rosemont Jr.

Book Overview

This book is both a critique of the concept of the rights-holding, free, autonomous individual and attendant ideology dominant in the contemporary West, and an account of an alternative view, that of the role-bearing, interrelated responsible person of classical Confucianism, suitably modified for addressing the manifold problems of today.
