" Si dans ce livre en forme de confession, je souhaite plaider pour un christianisme souple et allègre, ouvert et cordial, humble et pudique, ce n'est pas pour récuser la radicalité de la foi dont se réclament volontiers les jeunes prêtres d'aujourd'hui. Je voudrais au contraire les préserver du raidissement et de l'orgueil qui de tous temps ont perverti les plus belles générosités. La culture à laquelle ils appartiennent est disponible, j'en suis persuadé, à ce que j'appelle un christianisme d'insolence, au sens étymologique du mot, c'est-à-dire un christianisme qui manque d'habitude, un christianisme trop jeune pour se laisser intimider par le ton péremptoire de l'idéologie religieuse et paralyser sous le poids de ses archives. Car quelque chose est en train de se passer. "

How have rapid industrial development and the aging of the population affected the expression of filial piety in East Asia? Eleven experienced fieldworkers take a fresh look at an old idea, analyzing contemporary behavior, not norms, among both rural and urban families in China, Japan, Korea, and Taiwan. Each chapter presents rich ethnographic data on how filial piety shapes the decisions and daily lives of adult children and their elderly parents. The authors' ability to speak the local languages and their long-term, direct contact with the villagers and city dwellers they studied lend an immediacy and authenticity lacking in more abstract treatments of the topic. This book is an ideal text for social science and humanities courses on East Asia because it focuses on shared cultural practices while analyzing the ways these practices vary with local circumstances of history, economics, social organization, and demography and with personal circumstances of income, gender, and family configuration.

Dedicated to supernatural revelation and the divine governance of society, Pakistan's Ahmadi community has endured mob violence and penal sanctions for refusing to embrace the beliefs of the Sunni majority. They disagree with fundamentalist ideas of exclusiveness and consider themselves a reformed version of Islam. Although they have adopted Enlightenment ideas about the pursuit of scientific knowledge and produced a notable number of technicians, doctors, and scientists, women continue to live under a strict definition of purdah and the community remains conservative. The Ahmadis reveals a society strictly grounded in divinely prescribed patterns - including parental authority, close family ties, a disposition towards gender-specific roles, and separation of the sexes - but at odds with fanatical Muslim fundamentalism, whose wrath has spread beyond the Ahmadi minority to include the West.
