Remembrances of Li Xueqin (1933–2019)
I first met Li Xueqin in 1981, when he was a visiting fellow at Cambridge, and I was teaching at the School of Oriental and African Studies in London. Paul Thompson and I took a train to Cambridge to invite him to London for a few weeks-Paul said we should pay a scholar of his caliber the courtesy of going in person rather than writing to him. In London, Li spent an hour or so every morning happily working his way through all of the galleries of …

The Constitution of Ancient China
How was the vast ancient Chinese empire brought together and effectively ruled? What are the historical origins of the resilience of contemporary China's political system? This book examines the ways in which a series of fundamental institutions, rather than a supreme legal code upholding the laws of the land, evolved and coalesced into an effective constitution. Arguing that a constitution is an institutional response to a set of issues particul…
The Constitution of Ancient China: Not Assigned
Ancient Chinese Thought, Modern Chinese Power
The rise of China could be the most important political development of the twenty-first century. What will China look like in the future? What should it look like? And what will China's rise mean for the rest of world? This book, written by China's most influential foreign policy thinker, sets out a vision for the coming decades from China's point of view. In the West, Yan Xuetong is often regarded as a hawkish policy advisor and enemy of liberal…
A Confucian Constitutional Order: How China's Ancient Past Can Shape Its Political Future
As China continues to transform itself, many assume that the nation will eventually move beyond communism and adopt a Western-style democracy. But could China develop a unique form of government based on its own distinct traditions? This book says yes. It sets out a vision for a Confucian constitutional order that offers a compelling alternative to both the status quo in China and to a Western-style liberal democracy. It is the most detailed and …

Chapter Thirteen. Liang Shuming And Max Weber On Chinese Culture
Liang Shuming thought that the structure of ancient Chinese society had two features. The main question that Liang Shuming wants to solve in his analysis of Chinese cultural history is that of the cultural and structural causes as to why Chinese history stagnated and did not advance and why it was not able to produce capitalism. An ethics-based society is unable to provide the 'mentality' and 'organisation' that is conducive to the conditions req…
Tradition and Modernity: A Humanist View
The Question for Twentieth-Century China has been the integration of tradition and modernity. In this collection of essays written over a period of some twenty years (1987-2006), Chen Lai reflects on the question in an informative and original way. He reads behind the political slogans and engages with the thought both of Max Weber, Talcott Parsons and Western sociology, and representative Chinese thinkers, notably Feng Youlan and Liang Shuming. …
