Progressive Confucianism and its Critics

In the spring of 2017, U.S.-based Confucian philosopher Stephen C. Angle took part in a series of dialogues with Chinese Confucians. The present book offers translations of those dialogues into English, together with epilogues by the two editors reflecting on what the dialogues tell us about the contemporary prospects for Confucianism.
