Dr. Tongdong Bai (白彤東), born in Beijing, China, is the Dongfang Chair Professor at the School of Philosophy at Fudan University in China, an adjunct professor at NYU-Shanghai, and a member of the Pontifical Academy of Social Sciences. He held a bachelor degree in nuclear physics and a master degree in the philosophy of science from Peking University, and obtained his doctoral degree in philosophy from Boston University. He was a tenured associate professor at Xavier University in Cincinnati before he moved to Fudan, and was the first tenured philosophy teacher from the U.S. who has returned to China as a full-time faculty member. In the academic year of 2016-2017, he was a Fulbright Scholar and a Berggruen Fellow at Harvard’s Edmond J. Safra Center for Ethics. His research interests include Chinese philosophy and political philosophy, especially the comparative and contemporary relevance of traditional Chinese political philosophy. In addition to many articles published in prestigious journals in these areas, he has two books in English: China: The Political Philosophy of the Middle Kingdom (Zed Books, 2012), and Against Political Equality: The Confucian Case (Princeton University Press, 2019); he has also published three books in Chinese, A New Mission of an Old State: The Comparative and Contemporary Relevance of Classical Confucian Political Philosophy (Peking University Press, 2009), Tension of Reality: Einstein, Bohr and Pauli in the EPR Debates (Peking University Press, 2009), and Tian Xia: Five Lectures on the Mencius (Guangxi Shifan University Press, 2021). He is now working on the philosophy of Han Fei Zi (circa 250 BCE), a “Legalist” and a harsh critic of Confucians, as well as a real-life princeling who is often compared with Machiavelli and Hobbes. At Fudan, he established an MA, Visiting Student, and Auditing program in Chinese philosophy with courses taught in English that is intended to promote the studies of Chinese philosophy in the world, and is targeted at students who wish to learn Chinese philosophy, but whose Chinese is not good enough yet for them to do so in Chinese. Since its launch in 2011, the program has proven to be the most successful program of its kind in China. He delivers lectures, in Chinese and English, in different venues, and is also involved in other social activities and organizations, all of which are aimed at promoting new political norms that are informed and inspired by traditional Chinese philosophy and comparative political philosophy.

He is the author of Heaven and Earth are not Humane: The Problem of Evil in Classical Chinese Philosophy (Indiana, 2014), which gives a history of early Chinese philosophy in terms of responses to a growing consensus that the order of nature is not itself ethical. This consensus arose from a version of the problem of evil: the recognition that bad things happen to good people. His most recent book is Doing What You Really Want: An Introduction to the Philosophy of Mengzi (Oxford, 2022). He was also co-editor (with Chenyang Li) of Chinese Metaphysics and Its Problems (Cambridge, 2015). Perkins was originally trained in the history of European Philosophy, particularly the Early Modern Period. He has authored two books on the philosophy of Gottfried Wilhelm Leibniz: Leibniz: A Guide for the Perplexed (Bloomsbury, 2007), and Leibniz and China: A Commerce of Light (Cambridge, 2004). His books have been translated into Portuguese, Chinese, and Japanese. His main teaching and research interests are in classical Chinese philosophy, early modern European philosophy, and in the challenges of doing philosophy in a comparative or intercultural context. In the past few years, he has been focused particularly on the philosophical significance of recently excavated Chinese texts that were buried around 300 BCE.
