Confucianism and East Asian Economics

   Before Asian financial crisis in 1997 some had made arguement over the Confucianism and the fast-developing East Asian Economies, while others did not like to take the view point, mentioning the long-depressed East Asian ancesters under the Confucianism feudalism.  Basically, orthodox feudalism Confucians belonged to the Zhuzi school, while, for example, M. Ando, who enjoyed his big influence on large number of Japanese businessmen after World War II, seems having put his feet on the Yangming one.  Max Weber connected the European Capitalism not largely to the Christianity but specifically to the Protestanism.  Both sides should have, at least, studied East Asian culture more deeply.
