“…Nonetheless, there is not much discussion about vegetarianism based on animal ethics in China, and whether or not one can eat meat is rarely taken seriously as an academic issue. Some studies also pointed out that the vast majority of philosophers in China regarded eating meat as a morally neutral matter (Hou et al, 2022). Therefore, when answering this question, philosophers in China were more likely to refer to their own daily habits without giving much thought to ethics.…”

Analytic philosophy has been developing in China for over a century, and philosophers shaped by the analytic tradition have grown into an important philosophical community in China. The views of contemporary analytic philosophers in China on central philosophical issues and their similarities and differences with analytic philosophers in English-speaking countries have not been systematically investigated. Bourget and Chalmers have conducted two large-scale online questionnaire surveys on analytic philosophers in English-speaking countries. Inspired by their studies, a survey on analytic philosophers in China was performed. It is found that philosophers in China had no agreement on most issues. According to the comparative analysis with the results of Bourget and Chalmers’ second survey, there were significant differences in views as well as thinking styles between analytic philosophers in China and English-speaking countries. And these differences may be partially explained by cultural factors and academic environments.

“…All in all, desires can be seen as the very dynamic of human life, which (1) distinguish between the moral and the immoral (De Bary 1989;Hou et al 2022;Marchal 2013;Munro 1988;Virág 2007Virág , 2017, (2) constitute the motivation of human survival and development (Brazil and Forth 2020;Chiesa 2009;Diamond 2004;Hatfield et al 2010;Wright and Panksepp 2012), and (3) provide purpose and meaning needed for practical reasoning in human lives (Georgeff et al 1999;Maslow 1943Maslow , 1969Scott and Cohen 2020). As we conclude this section, it is important to reiterate that desire is not altogether negative, nor should it be indiscriminately avoided.…”

Desire is an important philosophical topic that deeply impacts everyday life. Philosophical practice is an emerging trend that uses philosophical theories and methods as a guide to living a eudaimonic life. In this paper, we define desire philosophically and compare different theories of desire in specific Eastern and Western traditions. Based on the Lacanian conceptual–terminological triad of “Need-Demand-Desire”, the research of desire is further divided into three dimensions, namely, the subject of desire, the object of desire, and the desire itself. The concept of desire is then analyzed from this triad and these three dimensions through different philosophical theories. This paper selects Buddhism as the representative of Eastern tradition, and Stoicism as the representative of the West, paying special attention to Stoicism’s “spiritual exercises” following Pierre Hadot. By exploring and comparing the Buddhist paths to liberation from suffering (i.e., the Four Noble Truths and the Noble Eightfold Path) and the two theoretical pillars in Stoicism (i.e., the notions of “living according to nature” and “the dichotomy of control”), practical guidance is then provided for understanding and regulating desire in times of crisis. This understanding and regulation of desire constitutes a philosophical therapy for today’s troubles, particularly those caused by excessive or irrational desires.

“…In essence, ethical leadership is rooted in a social relationship with the organization (Loi et al, 2015), meaning that organizational commitment may serve as a situational mediator. Organizational commitment has been identified as another crucial construct facilitating employees' innovative behavior by offering guidance, providing resources and creating an enabling environment (Hou et al, 2022;Çelik et al, 2015). Organizational commitment can mediate the relationship between ethical leadership and employees' innovative behavior by influencing employees' affective, normative and continuance commitment.…”

This study aimed to explore the relationship between ethical leadership and employees’ innovative behavior. The study relied on the analytical-descriptive approach through a review of the theoretical subjects related to previous studies and the analytical-practical aspect through preparing a questionnaire and distributing it to the targeted population of the study, while relying on the SPSS and Amos programs to test the hypotheses of the study and achieve its objectives. The results showed that there was an impact for ethical leadership on the employees’ innovative behavior and the organizational commitment partially mediates the relationship between ethical leadership and the employee's innovative behavior.
