Bi-Focal Vision for the Twin Crisis

Thu, April 8, 3:00 to 4:00pm EDT (3:00 to 4:00pm EDT), SIG Sessions, SIG-Philosophical Studies in Education Roundtable Sessions

Session Type: Roundtable Session

Abstract

Gaining familiarity with strengths and shortcomings of Liberal Western and Confucian Eastern cultures - historically and in their current forms, this symposium confronts the twin crisis of COVID and state violence in different national situations affording different opportunities to respond. The US and Chinese governments have both labeled young protesters as criminals and terrorists - but the personal consequences of taking social action in the two nations are quite different.
