Abstract
China’s political, social and cultural environment has a whole system; it is mainly shaped by Confucian culture and the whole system determines the development direction of Confucianism too. According to the sociocultural perspective, we must confirm that the way of thinking and behavior of people have been shaped by their culture, it’s the same for China. This essay will explore the main aspects of Confucianism and analyses the influence that Confucianism bears upon Chinese people. The reason why this essay analyses these influences is its unprecedented and unchallenged effects for China’s cultural ecology.
