Abstract
This paper explores the existing dualism of "authenticity" and "non-authenticity" in traditional Asian martial arts in the Western imagery. By examining of the concept of "authenticity" it analyzes the desire for authenticity of traditional Asian martial arts. In the process of deconstruction of the micro-ontology of "change" in general, and "change" in traditional Asian martial arts in particular, it shows that all change is inevitable. This thesis is supported by a discussion of the forms of change, the contents of change, and a case study of the developments in traditional Chinese Taijiquan in the West. In conclusion, this paper calls for scholars and researchers to acknowledge the existence of these factors in order to spread better knowledge.
