One of the remarkable tendencies of Confucian Studies in American is an acculturation of Confucianism in American soil, represented by Robert Neville`s recent work Boston Confucianism. It may be an American answer for Tu Wei-ming`s third wave of Confucianism reflected accumulation of mature studies of Confucianism in America. Many translations and studies of Confucian classics has been produced recently such as Roger Ames` the Analects, John Makenam`s studies on commentaries of the Analects and so on. Flourishing of Classical Studies is definite sign of maturation in Confucian Studies in America.

Considering pioneering works of Confucian studies in America done in mid-nineties by Wing-tsit Chan and Neo-Confucians, good scholars should be summoned and careful attention should be paid for the promotion of studying Korean Confucianism in America.
