Reviews

In this rich, engaging, and important book, Bai's perspective is that of a contemporary political philosopher influenced by both early Confucianism and Rawls. He thinks creatively about the challenges and needs of contemporary polities, and Against Political Equality is well-argued, provocative, and methodologically sound. This is a significant contribution to the emerging literature on Confucian political philosophy, and will attract much notice. -Stephen C. Angle, Wesleyan University Bai possesses a rare combination of expertise in contemporary political philosophy and classical textual exegesis. He occupies his own well-defined territory in the intellectual and ideological landscape of contemporary Chinese political thought, and Against Political Equality is a welcome and much-needed addition to the field. -Justin Tiwald, San Francisco State University
