Asian religious roots hinder modern planning say expert
Bert Haselitz of the University of Chicago argues at a Philadelphia AAAS meeting that Buddhist Hindu and Confucian foundations limit Asian societies from abstract economic planning. He notes elites grasp Western methods but masses cling to aesthetical values, risking conflict and failed implementation. He cites education conflicts and calls for deeper study of values in Asia and Africa.
