Synopsis

This edited volume presents a multidisciplinary exploration of Chinese identity, bringing together contributions from philosophers, historians, and legal theorists. The book examines the question of what it means to be, or to become, Chinese, offering a rich collection of perspectives that span both historical and contemporary contexts. Through a series of thought-provoking chapters, the authors explore the complexities of "Chineseness," shedding light on its relational and multifaceted nature.

Key themes addressed include the importance of a relational worldview that underpins Chinese philosophy and social life, the historical evolution of Chinese identity, and the moral obligations associated with family, nation, and global responsibility. The book also explores the legal dimensions of Chinese identity, emphasizing the role of legal ties that provide fair treatment to all. Taken together, these diverse perspectives provide readers with a comprehensive and nuanced understanding of Chinese identity, making the volume an essential resource for scholars and students of Chinese studies, philosophy, history, sociology and law.
