[csaa-forum] Confucianism Today: Roundtable with Prof Yu Dan

Confucian ethics and Confucian values have experienced a revival in China in recent years. This philosophical system dates back over two thousand years. Its original essence is however contested in academic circles.

Yu Dan, Professor, Vice Dean of Art and Communication School, Beijing Normal University; Dean of Beijing Institute of Culture Innovation and Communication
Shirley Chan, Associate Professor, Chinese Studies, Macquarie University; President, Chinese Studies Association of Australia
Sean Moores, Lecturer in Chinese and East Asian Thought, Asian Studies Program, University of Sydney
Dimitris Vardoulakis, Associate Professor, Deputy Chair of Philosophy, Western Sydney University
Moderator: Jocelyn Chey, Professor, Director of Australia-China Institute for Arts and Culture, Western Sydney University
