The Confucian World Observed. A Contemporary Discussion of Confucian Humanism in East Asia.
Honolulu. The East-West Center. 1992. Stock ID #96434 "A workshop sponsored by the American Academy of Arts and Sciences in 1989 brought together more than two dozen scholars in the humanities and social sciences to explore Confucian ethics as a common intellectual discourse in East Asia. This book is a distillation of the essence of their multidisciplinary and cross-cultural examination. It seeks especially to illuminate claims that Confucian ethics have provided the necessary background and a powerful motivation in the rise of industrial East Asia, the most dynamic region of sustained economic growth and political development since World War II."
