Semester Offered: Spring
1 unit(s)

(Same as ASIA 152) Buddhist, Daoist, and Confucian practices over the last two thousand years had at least as much influence on East Asian peoples and the state than any other social, political, or historical form. In this course we explore many of these practices as well as read primary and secondary sources to better understand how these influences played out historically and continue today. While the course is comparative – bringing in examples from different East Asian regions – we focus most of our attention on China. Michael Walsh.

Open to all students except seniors.
