Confucianism guided the emperors in their mandate of heaven over two thousand years. Today government-driven Confucianism as a country's soft power is embedded to advance China's aspirations for global power. The methodology in this book is historical and cultural narrative to gain a more profound understanding of China-how China thinks and acts.

Rezensionen
"This is a book about Confucianism in contemporary China. ... I do think that this is an informative and timely new book linking some of the main ideas in traditional Confucianism with contemporary Chinese ideology and policies as regards constructing a world order and cultivating global influence." (Haimo Li, Journal of Chinese Philosophy, Vol. 50 (3), 2023)
