The New Confucianism

AUGUST 14, 2007 TUESDAY AT 3PM CT

 


  While the Chinese are frantically rebuilding Beijing to get ready for the 2008 Olympics, they are also working to bring back Confucianism. This hour on Here on Earth: Radio Without Borders, Jean Feraca and her guests discuss why this ancient conservative philosophy is so well suited to the present regime.

Guest
  • Mark Csikszentmihalyi, associate professor of Chinese and Religious Studies, University of Wisconsin-Madison
  • Julia Murray, professor of Art History, University of Wisconsin-Madison
  • Yi-Fu Tuan, emeritus professor of geography at University of Wisconsin-Madison, author of "Coming Home to China"
