  • 2. Environmental Baseline Condition
    Ã E2592 v1 World Bank Loan Project: Public Disclosure Authorized Environmental Assessment For Shandong Confucius & Mencius Public Disclosure Authorized Cultural Heritage Preservation and Development Project (Final) Public Disclosure Authorized EA Agency: Shandong Academy of Environmental Science EA Certificate: State EAC No. 2402 Date of Completion: Jan. 2011 Public Disclosure Authorized Jinan, China P. R Ã Ã Preface Confucius, born in the year of 552 BC, is one of the greatest thinkers in the history of humanity, his thought and doctrine addressed the order and nature of morality in the life of human society. Mencius was born 180 years latter than that of Confucius, and succeeded and developed the thought of Confucius. Addressing governing by benevolence, Mencius advocated Confucius’ philosophy and jointly with him established the core of Chinese culture – Confucianism. Confucianism, created by both Confucius and Mencius, started to become the main stream of Chinese culture in Han Dynasty dating back 2000 years. Particularly, after Confucianism was reformed and reinterpreted by the ruler as a political thought, it became the thought of State. Therefore, Confucianism, Buddhism and Daoism had jointly constituted the physical constitution of Chinese traditional culture, and had produced great influence on Asia, Japan and South Korea in particular. Understanding traditional Chinese culture is to a large extent to understand Confucianism and Confucius Culture. Confucius and Mencius culture has a long history and enjoys a high reputation at home and abroad, thus has left over invaluable cultural heritage assets to the people of the whole world. Therefore, it has become the essence of outstanding traditional culture of Chinese civilization.

  • Peace in Palestine Via the World Heritage Convention
    . Michael K. Madison II. Peace in Palestine ..........through World Heritage Promoting Peace via Global Conventions - 1 - Peace in Palestine via the World Heritage Convention Promoting Peace via Global Conventions The Global Problem "Throughout history, religious differences have divided men and women from their neighbors and have served as justification for some of humankind's bloodiest conflicts. In the modern world, it has become clear that people of all religions must bridge these differences and work together, to ensure our survival and realize the vision of peace that all faiths share." -- H.R.H. Prince El-Hassan bin Talal, Jordan Moderator, WCRP Governing Board Tolerance, Economic Growth and Fear Global peace and harmony is not possible without religious tolerance. Unfortunately, there is no instant microwavable solution. We can’t just add water and/or milk to the current situation and hope that the world will ameliorate itself overnight. No. The world needs help. The problem is not the outliers; it is larger groups of people that need to change. Outliers will always be present. The world needs religious-minded policymakers to take giant steps that lead to peace, but in a mutually beneficial way. Indeed, peace for peace’s sake is not always enough incentive to all parties involved. Therefore, if the conflict cannot be resolved by tolerance, then let it be resolved by greed as we find a way to help the countries involved to achieve a better economic position. If the conflict cannot be resolved by boosting the corresponding economies, then let it be resolved by fear as we convince the nations involved that one false move means it will be - 2 - their country against the rest of the world and not just their “enemy of the day”.

  • Creative Spaces Within Which People, Ideas and Systems Interact with Uncertain Outcomes
    GIMPEL, NIELSE GIMPEL, Explores new ways to understand the dynamics of change and mobility in ideas, people, organisations and cultural paradigms China is in flux but – as argued by the contributors to this volume – change is neither new to China nor is it unique to that country; similar patterns are found in other times and in other places. Indeed, Creative on the basis of concrete case studies (ranging from Confucius to the Vagina Monologues, from Protestant missionaries to the Chinese N & BAILEY avant-garde) and drawing on theoretical insights from different dis- ciplines, the contributors assert that change may be planned but the outcome can never be predicted with any confidence. Rather, there Spaces exist creative spaces within which people, ideas and systems interact with uncertain outcomes. As such, by identifying a more sophisticated Seeking the Dynamics of Change in China approach to the complex issues of change, cultural encounters and Spaces Creative so-called globalization, this volume not only offers new insights to scholars of other geo-cultural regions; it also throws light on the workings of our ‘global’ and ‘transnational’ lives today, in the past and in the future.
