The key to fulfilling these twofold objectives lies in the fact that there is a positive correlation between the enhancement of a soldier’s democratic awareness and intangible force.

This interpretation could be misleading in that it overlooks the natural aspect of Confucian philosophy. To that aspect, this article asserts that a moral practice in Confucianism has a natural charact…Read more

This is followed by formulating the criticism into two aspects, that Horkheimer and Adorno’s apor…Read more
