Abstract

The book, Confucianism and Democratization is a scholarly work written by the author, D. C.

Shin. The previous work on this book done by me presents the details of the book how the

author has dealt with an old and intricate topic whether Confucianism is associated with

democratization, and if yes, in what ways these two are interlinked. In this paper, I would

provide a critical study of the author's arguments with its empirical, statistical results as well

as its validity. Twentieth century East Asia has been widely affected by the process of

democratization; it has changed the nationalistic movements of Confucian dominant

countries, namely, China, Korea, Japan, Singapore, Taiwan and Vietnam in East Asia. The

Freedom House Data that shows the yearly stats has rated China, Vietnam and North Korea

as ‘NOT FREE’ countries; whereas, Japan, Taiwan and South Korea are free and Singapore is

partly free. It shows the data from 1993 till 2015
