Confucianism  

Définition(s)

  • Confucianism is a philosophical system of beliefs, sometimes referred to as a religion, instituted in varying degrees during the past 2,500 years throughout several East Asian nations—including China, Japan, South Korea, Taiwan, Hong Kong, Singapore, and Vietnam—and globally through Asian diaspora communities. The English word Confucianism can be traced back to 16th-century Jesuit missionaries in China who used the term to describe a tradition that had Chinese philosopher Kung-Fuzi (551–478 BCE) as its figurehead.
