Paper Summary:
In this article, the writer discusses today's martial arts. The writer looks at this form of unarmed combat that is associated with Asian culture, philosophy and mysticism. The writer points out that it may be argued that in their incarnation in contemporary North America as sport, these martial arts have lost the underlying philosophical and cultural roots that gave them their fundamental identity.From the Paper:
"When one speaks of martial arts today one conceives of unarmed combat in a context pervaded by Asian culture, philosophy and mysticism. Despite different countries of origin - whether it be China (kung-fu), Japan (akido, judo, karate) or Korea (tae kwon do) - these martial arts have all been closely associated with the rich Asian philosophical and cultural traditions that gave them birth."More papers on Asian Martial Arts:
