Abstract

As China’s modernization continues to accelerate, the traditional sources of legitimacy for governance are at risk. Mainland Neo-Confucian scholars have sought to provide a source of legitimacy using traditional Confucian theories. As a part of the most influential ruling philosophy in ancient China, Confucianism has had been crucial to Chinese civilization for thousands of years. It is of great practical importance to test whether the return to Confucianism advocated by Neo-Confucian scholars can resolve the dilemma of legitimacy in China.
