Confucius

Thinker

Chinese thinker, founder of the Confucian tradition.

«Social harmony built on roles, respect and the virtue of those who govern.»

In short

On the traditional scale, Confucius sits in the law-and-order center-right camp. The clearest positions are on society: strongly towards “tradition”; method: strongly towards “reform”; democracy: strongly towards “technocracy”; state: strongly towards “authority”. On economy, sovereignty, environment and immigration it stays balanced. Among ideologies, the closest is constitutional monarchism (92%).
