Lundao 10: New Daoist Studies

Louis Komjathy 康思奇, Ph.D., CSO, founding Co-director and senior teacher of the Daoist Foundation 道教基金會, presents a Daoist talk on his vision for New Daoist Studies (NDS). Challenging its cooptation and misrepresentation by conventional Sinological scholars (contemporary 19th Orientalists) and academic careerists, Dr. Komjathy envisions a field in which the "Daoist" is primary, including the possibility of scholar-practitioner approaches (SPA) and critical adherent discourse (CDS)
