In this book, John Zijiang Ding reimagines comparative philosophy through the dual lenses of new comparativism and dialogism, offering a multidimensional, cross-cultural framework for philosophical inquiry. Drawing on over a decade of research, Ding develops a rigorous model that integrates diverse methodologies, disciplines, and cultural perspectives. Through case studies and analytical dialogues, the book explores applied philosophical concepts--including privatization, anti-corruption, civil society, constitutional deviation, and social deviance--while also engaging with themes such as globalization and human existence. Juxtaposing Eastern and Western traditions, from Confucius and Mencius to Rawls and Habermas, Ding reveals the transformative potential of comparative philosophy in an age of pluralism. This volume is essential reading for scholars and students of philosophy, political theory, and cultural studies, and for anyone interested in the practical and theoretical dimensions of global philosophical discourse.
