A consideration of Confucian ethics that employs the work and concerns of the eminent comparative ethicist Joel J. Kupperman. In this volume, leading scholars in Asian and comparative philosophy take the work of Joel J. Kupperman as a point of departure to consider new perspectives on Confucian ethics. Kupperman is one of the few eminent Western philosophers to have integrated Asian philosophical traditions into his thought, developing a character-based ethics synthesizing Western, Chinese, and Indian philosophies. With their focus on Confucian ethics, contributors respond, expand, and engage in critical dialogue with Kupperman’s views. Kupperman joins the conversation with responses and comments that conclude the volume. Chenyang Li is Associate Professor of Philosophy at Nanyang Technological University, Singapore, where he also founded and directs the Philosophy Program. His books include The Confucian Philosophy of Harmony and The Tao Encounters the West: Explorations in Comparative Philosophy, also published by SUNY Press. Peimin Ni is Professor of Philosophy at Grand Valley State University and the author of several books, including On Confucius.
