摘要

Tremors emanating from the newly emerging geopolitical order are testing the modern system of nation states, which emphasizes liberal individualismLiberal Individualism defined by individual autonomy and equality on an international scale. However, this has been wholly ineffective in addressing pressing issues like the COVID-19 pandemic, environmental degradation, income inequities, proxy wars, and global hunger. This gathering storm must be met by a global village working collaboratively for the good of the world community as a whole. This is expressed well in Confucian philosophyClassical Confucian Philosophy where there is a perceived isomorphism incorporating the family, state, and world, with the state and the world being a simulacrum of the family as an institution, making it uniquely suited to a twenty-first century with a more multiethnic and interreligious global context.
