Introduction -- Chapter 1: Political Liberalism and the Paradigm Shift of Political Philosophy -- Chapter 2: The Public Conception of Morality in Political Liberalism -- Chapter 3: Against the Asymmetry Objection -- Chapter 4: The Idea of Hyperpluralism and Pluralism in East Asia -- Chapter 5: Confucianism and Comprehensive Confucian Perfectionism -- Chapter 6: The Discontents of Moderate Political Confucianism -- Chapter 7: Politica; Confucianism and Multivariate Democracy in East Asia -- Chapter 8: Towards a Pluralistic Approach to Antiperfectonism -- Chapter 9: Respect, Recognition, and Toleration: A Concentric Theory of Global Justice -- Conclusion -- Bibliograpy.

This book contributes to both the internal debate in liberalism and the application of political liberalism to the process of democratization in East Asia. Beyond John Rawls' original intention to limit the scope of political liberalism to only existing and well-ordered liberal democracies, political liberalism has the potential to inspire and contribute to democratic establishment and maintenance in East Asia. Specifically, the book has two main objectives. First, it will demonstrate that political liberalism offers the most promising vision for liberal democracy, and it can be defended against contemporary perfectionist objections. Second, it will show that perfectionist approaches to political Confucianism suffer from practical and theoretical difficulties. Instead, an alternative model of democracy inspired by political liberalism will be explored in order to achieve a multivariate structure for citizens to come to terms with democracy in their own ways, to support a neutral state that ensures the establishment and stability of democracy, and to maintain an active public role for Confucianism to prevent it from being banished to the private sphere. This model represents a more promising future for democracy in East Asia.
