Abstract

Chinese philosophy, with perhaps the exception of Daoism, has a strong moral and political character. Ancient Chinese philosophers, including Confucians, Mohists, and Legalists, usually do not separate moral philosophy from political philosophy. They typically take political philosophy as an extension of moral philosophy and espouse political ideals from respective moral foundations.
