Basic Morality of Confucian Ethics and Jung's Moral Ideas

As the main stream of the Chinese traditional culture, Confucian ethics has established its basic morality or mother morality during the historical development of more than 2000 years. The Confucianism was formed through the contention of a hundred schools of thought during the pre-Qin period. When Dong Zhongshu made his suggestions that restrained all the other schools but only respected Confucianism in Han Dynasty, the dominant position of Confucianism was established in Chinese society. By virtue of incorporating things of diverse nature with unity of opposites in the later dynasties, the idealist philosophy of the Song and Ming Dynasties was developed which made Confucianism, Daoism and Buddhism into a confluence unity. And the development of the modern Chinese society that criticized Confucianist thought would promote us to make a timely reflection on the Confucianist ethics. Jung's analytical psychology provides us with a special angle of research for the comparison of the moral ideas between East and West.
