摘要

This article offers a critical analysis of Li Chenyang’s Reshaping Confucianism: A Progressive Inquiry, situating it within the broader discourse of progressive Confucianism. It explores how Li reinterprets classical Confucian concepts to address contemporary social, ethical, and political challenges through both historical and philosophical methodologies. The essay highlights Li Chenyang’s principle of “progressive humanity,” which integrates traditional moral insights with modern values. It further examines Li’s intercultural and comparative strategies, exposing his dynamic reading of harmony (he 和) and gender equity through Confucian ethics. The author also engages with tensions between sentiment-based ethics and rational autonomy, especially in relation to feminist care ethics, drawing on Li Zehou’s 李澤厚 critiques. The analysis underscores the relevance of progressive Confucianism in shaping a globally inclusive ethical discourse and emphasizes its potential as a critical framework for addressing modern human and societal development.
