CONFUCIAN THOUGHT AFFECTING EDUCATION IN SOUTH-EAST ASIAN COUNTRIES VS. SOCRATIC EDUCATION PHILOSOPHY IN WESTERN COUNTRIES
Journal Title: Athenaeum. Polskie Studia Politologiczne - Year 2017, Vol 0, Issue 56
Abstract
Socrates and Confucius constitute roots of western and eastern civilization respectively and represent very different cultural values and educational traditions. Both of the philosophers lived around 4 – 5th century B.C.E., but there were huge differences in the social and cultural environments in which they lived. Different cultural and social factors in ancient Greece and China led to differences in Socratic and Confucian approaches to learning. Their educational philosophies have been discussed on the base of the aim of education, the content of education, the teaching process, and the nature of the contemporary education. The method used in the described study is hermeneutics, or interpretation of the literary (here scientific) texts, thus the study is cross-cultural in nature and concerns the features of the contemporary education in both cultures.
