This paper conducts a self-reflexive review of the East-Asian human. tights discourse that has taken place in Korean academic circles. This review focuses on the question of Confucianism's ability to provide cultural resources for forming new conceptions of human rights. The paper acknowledges the fact that the cultural foundation of East Asian societies is communalistic, and points to a need for new approaches and strategies to justify human rights in East Asia. Firstly, communalism should be redefined to engage with the neo-liberalism that enjoys dominance today. Secondly, it should be combined with sufficient reflection on modernity in East Asia. Thirdly, reinterpreting Confucianism within the context of twenty-first-century East Asia requires further investigation into the discourse of "Otherness." This paper argues that human rights discourse in East Asia must proceed with a reflective understanding of Western modernity, mainstream Confucian culture, and the tumultuous history of East Asia and that it requires either East Asia's "negation of the negation" of its own culture, or a new understanding of it.
