 Neo-Confucian Philosophy [Internet Encyclopedia of Philosophy]
By the late Ming dynasty many of the followers of Wang Yangming harshly questioned what they took to be the negative Song teachings about the emotional life.
Although not widely accepted in late Ming and Qing society, these Confucian women defended the notion of companionate marriage based, in part, on a Confucian analysis of the emotional needs of women and men.
Hitherto, it is impossible to chart the changes wrought by either contemporary philosophers who are dedicated to the revival and reformation of the Confucian Way or by other scholars who are interested in Confucian discourse as merely one important traditional element for modern East Asian philosophers to utilize in terms of their own constructive work.

 Transnational China Project Sponsored Commentary, Wei-Ming Tu on Asian Values and the Asian Crisis
Anyway, I am not a culturalist in the sense that I try to explain complicated economic, political processes in cultural terms.
I am not a culturalist at all, even though Thomas Johnson, a very good friend of mine, said, "He is an institutionalist, whereas Wei-Ming Tu is always a culturalist." I am not a culturalist in the sense that I want to use these cultural values to explain social political processes.
If you can explain a phenomenon, like the Asian crisis now, in terms of pure economic features -- like the banking system, like financial problems, like international trade, the market mechanism -- if you can explain these phenomena in terms of economic terms without appealing to any other extra-economic factors, I will be satisfied.

 Hsieh Liang-Tso and the Analects of Confucius : Humane Learning as a Religious Quest (American Acade: ...
Hsieh Liang-tso (c.1050-c.1120, known as master Shang-ts'ai) was one of the leading direct disciples of Ch'eng Hao and Ch'eng I, the two brothers who were the early leaders of the Confucian revival known as Neo-Confucianism in Northern Sung China.
Selover argues that Hsieh's handling of key issues in interpreting and applying the Confucian Analects, his experiential reasoning and his deference to scriptural classics and earlier tradition, bear important similarities to the practice of theology in Western religious traditions.
The volume also contains a translation of Hsieh's commentary on the Analects, as well as a foreword by the renowned scholar of Confucianism, Tu Wei-ming.
