This article is a continuation of Part I, which looked at the relationship between Confucianism and Daoism by first introducing general approaches, before moving on to (1) perspectives on names and actualities; (2) cultivation, learning, the natural; and (3) conceptions of the person. Continuing with the theme-based comparison of Confucianism and Daoism by looking specifically at theLunyu論語 (Analects of Confucius),Daodejing道德經 (Classic of the Way and Virtuosity) orLaozi老子 (Book of Master Lao), and theZhuangzi莊子 (Book of Master Zhuang), this article looks at (1) politics, nonaction (wuwei無為), and virtuosity (de德); (2) morality, virtues, and human nature (xing性); and finally (3)Dao道, or "the way." It references Part I, and while it can be read independently, it is best taken as a continuation of Part I. The conclusion included herein summarizes both Part II and Part I
