Harmony in Confucian thought and building a community of shared future for mankind

Abstract

A community of shared future for mankind (CSFM) is a new type of international system of win-win cooperation, the essence of which is to advocate for the creation of a harmonious human society. This political concept has many views coming from traditional Confucian thought, especially Confucian ideals of harmony. Interpreting CSFM from the perspective of harmony in Confucian thought can improve understandings of community and accordingly enhance its construction.
