Childish article. Should the Confucians also be forced to read plato? Philosophy (itself a greek word) is being taught as a certain tradition that builds upon its past. People from all races have contributed, but it will always remain a western-born tradition. To say that other disciplines should be included uncritically is childish. I realize the authors may be frustrated that their subfields don&#x27;t gain more tractions, but even the fact that they both work in western philosophy departments, kind of nullifies their point.
