What are the differences between the Asian and Western ways of thinking?
There are many theories about Asian and Western ways of thinking. People relate to each other in
the same way on a one to one basis. We all have similar problems in life regarding, love,
friendships, parents, children etc.
Asian thought has a holistic approach when compared to Western modes of reasoning. Westerners
focus on objects or people, use different attributes to put them in categories, and apply rules of
formal logic to understand their behavior or resolve them. On the contrary, Asian thinking is
fundamentally dialectic looking for relationship between two opposing ideas to find a solution. In
short, Asians do not look for choices or depend on categories or formal logic to arrive at a solution.
