This book asserts that Asia is different in its values and that Asia's development path will not be the same as Europe's. The book will help Westerners understand and appreciate the changes taking place in Asia, and thereby help bring Europe and Asia together.
This book opens with an examination of values themselves, grappling with western assertions of individual human rights and the eastern emphasis on duties, and analysing selected Asian philosophical and religious traditions. Several case studies follow, on countries the Philippines, Japan, China, Malaysia and Thailand. The purpose of the book is to help westerners in particular to understand and appreciate better the changes taking place in Asia, to handle relations more sensitively, and thereby to help bring Europe and Asia together.
