In the continuation of the CDE lessons, we proceed to studying the difference between the Eastern and Western ideologies and cultures. We did readings on how the historical events shaped the formation of the unique conception and culture of both East and West. We also done researches on how some countries can consist of both Eastern and Western ideologies.

We had done readings on French revolution and how it shaped the new system in France, where everyone is given rights to vote etc.

The class also presented their own ideas on how countries like Singapore, Taiwan and Japan constitute an example of both Confucianism and Western Ideologies.

The contents were mostly similar, in depicting how these countries' government had adapted the Western ideology of freedom of speech, while the citizens still maintained the Confucianism of harmony, loyalty and love.
