Since discourses on humanistic traditions have so far largely been focused on European cultures, this volume attempts to open the field to counterparts within Chinese culture which, as a matter of fact, has a rich autochthonous tradition of humanism as well. The contributors explore Confucian and Daoist dimensions of humaneness in Chinese philosophy and history up to the first half of the 20th century, when Chinese and Western concepts of humanism first merged. This book addresses a non-sinological audience as well as specialists in this field and contributes to a non-eurocentric view on humanism history.

This book introduces into the current global ethics debate models of humanism developed in classical Chinese traditions, which have not yet been comprehensively presented to Western scholarship or integrated into the framework of global discourses on social ethics and morality. 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.

"The Global Foundations of Public Relations: Humanism, China and the West explores the growing humanistic turn in public relations processes and proposes that this has compelling parallels in the roots of Chinese philosophies. As the leader of growth and power across the Pacific Rim, public relations in China is not developing in isolation from the West, but via mutual accommodations and culturally complex interactions. By collecting cases and reflections on PR practices from both Chinese and Western scholars, the chapters propose that Chinese philosophies are playing a role in the development of modern Chinese PR practices, and - focusing less on the obvious differences and contracts - seek to highlight their spiritual, philosophical and political confluences. The conclusions drawn enhance and advance our understanding of public relations globally. This innovative work is of interest to educators and researchers in the fields of public relations, strategic communications, and public diplomacy. Robert E. Brown is Professor Emeritus at Salem State University, USA, and a member of the Affiliated Faculty of Emerson College. Burton St. John III is Professor of Public Relations at the University of Colorado-Boulder, USA.

The Humanist Way In Ancient China written by Chʻu Chai and has been published by this book supported file pdf, txt, epub, kindle and other format this book has been release on 1965 with Confucianism categories.
From the son of heaven to the common peasant, the goal of the ancient Chinese was to be righteous, to promote filial piety, and to uphold human rights in a peaceful and harmonious world. He was heir to Confucius and his disciples, among the greatest humanists of any age or any people. To illustrate for the Western reader the richness and splendor of Chinese humanism, the editors of this volume have selected the Analects of Confucius, the complete works of Mencius, as well as selections from the other important Confucian classics. Though set down over 2,500 years ago, these Confucian attitudes on individual morality and on the conduct of society, government and politics remain liberal, enlightened and startlingly modern.

"Professor Ying-shih Yu is a leading authority in the field of Chinese Studies. He received the John W. Kluge Prize for achievement in the Study of Humanity in 2006, and the first Tang Prize international award in Sinology in 2014. These awards represent a recognition of his more than sixty-year contribution to the fields of Chinese history, thought, politics and culture during which time he published over thirty books, forty-one monographs and hundreds of articles. They also serve to highlight his efforts to redefine the Chinese intellectual and cultural tradition and to imbue it with new life. These awards further serve to honor the way in which Professor Yu has put his intellectual convictions into practice through his criticism of the violent suppression of the Tiananmen democracy movement of 1989, and his decades-long commentaries on Radio Free Asia. Over the years his works have had great influence throughout the Chinese language world where he has been hailed as a paradigm of Chinese humanism. The book covers Professor Yü's life and times from his childhood in a village in rural Anhui Province to his tenure as a Professor at Harvard University, from 1937 through the 1970s, but with relevant discussions of some later matters. Professor Yü describes his youth in China, living through the wartime years from 1937 to 1948, his life as a student at Tsinghua University and then in Hong Kong, and he concludes with his academic experiences as a student and professor at Harvard University. This book, expertly translated by Professors Michael S. Duke and Josephine Chiu-Duke (University of British Columbia), is much more than the memoir of the scholar who has been hailed as the most important living Chinese historian of our times-it is also an invaluable record of a history of our times, witnessing the cultural, political, and social transformations of what Professor Yu notes as the period of most violent turmoil and social upheaval in modern Chinese history. This complex period is now made accessible to English-language readers, who also benefit from the helpful notes by the translators"--
