«This book brings the study of Confucian values fully into current-day social science scholarship.It draws on the appropriate disciplinary studies, examines long-term change in Chinese and Korean societies through solid evidence, and refrains from both idealizing East Asian ways and assuming that they are disappearing in favor of Western practices. More than other sources, it explains how and why approaches to human relations in this region continue to have distinctive features.»

In The Politics of Affective Relations, editors Daniel Bell and Hahm Chaihark refine our understanding of the East Asian conception of the self by examining how that conception was formulated, reproduced, and utilized throughout history. Sparked by a strong dissatisfaction with the state over many discourses regarding East Asian politics, this volume moves beyond the simplistic exchange of polemics regarding "Asian Values" and reaches a more nuanced understanding of "relationality." By bringing together a collection of articles authored by experts in a variety of academic disciplines, Bell and Hahm scrutinize how the East Asian emphasis on "relationality" manifests itself in various real-life settings such as the family, the economy, politics, and the legal system. This volume will provide readers with a broader perspective on and a deeper appreciation for the pervasive nature of "relationality" in East Asia.
