Van Norden examines early Confucianism as a form of virtue ethics and Mohism, an anti-Confucian movement, as a version of consequentialism. The philosophical methodology is analytic, in that the emphasis is on clear exegesis of the texts and a critical examination of the philosophical arguments proposed by each side. Van Norden shows that Confucianism, while similar to Aristotelianism in being a form of virtue ethics, offers different conceptions of \"the good life,\" the virtues, human nature, and ethical cultivation.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Cambridge University Press","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":47813576425623,"sku":"9780521867351","price":14509.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9780521867351.webp?v=1778336937","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/virtue-ethics-and-consequentialism-in-early-chinese-philosophy-9780521867351","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
