Confucius Lives Next Door
''Confucius Lives Next Door: What Living in the East Teaches Us About Living in the West'' is a 1999 book by Washington Post writer T.R. Reid. 〔T. R. Reid. ''Confucius Lives Next Door: What Living in the East Teaches Us About Living in the West.'' (New York: Random House, 1999). ISBN 0679456244.〕
==The book's argument==
Reid, a sometime commentator for National Public Radio, lived with his wife and two daughters in Japan for five years as Tokyo bureau chief for the Washington Post. This book draws on his experiences during that time. He argues that the Asian Dragon economies have built modern industrial societies featuring the safest streets, the best schools, and the most stable families in the world. Reid credits this success to the ethical values of Chinese philosopher Confucius, who taught the value of ''ren'' (harmony) and the Ethic of Reciprocity.
Upon arriving, he reported, he and his family found themselves "smack in the middle of a fundamental shift in world history—a basic realignment of global stature and political power.... we found ourselves in the Asian century." They found that Asian societies dealt more successfully with issues of crime, drug use, family, education, and equality of wealth. 〔(Excerpt from Chapter One ) New York Times online 1999.〕
