Abstract

Theoretically, the traditional cultural system of Confucianism in China can be divided into the of cultural and the manifestation. Humanitarianism, democentrtism, the cultural philosophy of harmony, the universality of the ethic, and the perfect society of great harmony are the cultural ideas with everlasting value in the Confucian cultural system, and they are also the most splendid parts in the traditional Chinese culture that belong to the world. The thinkers of the Neoconfucianism often completely confuse the idea of value in the Confucianism culture and its historical manifestations, so we must keep a critical attitude toward the Neoconfucianism.
