商品簡介
Hall (philosophy, U. of Texas-El Paso) and Ames (philosophy & Chinese studies, U. of Hawaii) challenge conventional thinking about China and its relations to the west. According to the authors, it is a mistake to assume that a future modernized China will also be essentially Westernized. The China which may well dominate the global culture of the 21st century will not be a society of increasingly rugged individuals, nor will it be the Netscaped, McDonaldized theme park of which Western entrepreneurs have begun to dream. Instead, the legitimate desires of the Chinese people may require a communitarian form of democracy which is at odds with the liberal democratic model of Western democracies.
