These thinkers founded or influenced the Confucian, Daoist, Mohist and Legalist schools of thought, and their ideas continue to guide China's thinking and behaviour today. He shows how these thinkers addressed the key question of how philosophical thinking can serve humanity and society. Chang systematically presents their different solutions and evaluates them according to reason and experience, helping you to understand the philosophical roots of law and Chinese law in particular UR - https://doi.org/10.1515/9780748669578 UR - https://www.degruyter.com/isbn/9780748669578 UR - https://www.degruyter.com/document/cover/isbn/9780748669578/original ER -
