The pragmatic understanding of Confucian democracy not only establishes the inextricable intertwinement between democracy’s institutional-instrumental and moral-intrinsic values but further creates an equally intimate connection between Confucian substance and democratic procedure in a Confucian democracy. This chapter argues that in Confucian pragmatic democracy, democratic procedures exist not so much as formal institutional mechanisms that are neutral to or independent of Confucian values but as the value-laden conduit through which Confucian democratic substances are produced in the forms of Confucian democratic rights, Confucian justice, and Confucian democratic citizenship, thereby reinforcing a congruence between Confucian democracy’s instrumental and intrinsic values. It explains this double congruence that pragmatic Confucian democracy enables between substance and procedure and between intrinsic and instrumental values in terms of Confucian democratic perfectionism.
