Promotion of corruption
Different from many other political philosophies, Confucianism is reluctant to employ laws. In a society where relationships are considered more important than the laws themselves, if no other power forces government officers to take the common interest into consideration, corruption and nepotism will arise. As government officers' salary was often far lower than the minimum required to raise a family, Chinese society has frequently been affected by those problems, and still is. Even if some means to control and reduce corruption and nepotism have been successfully used in China, Confucianism is criticized for not providing such a means itself. |
Well, that clears a few things up. |

That link is busted. Judging from shaky use of definite articles, it's probably just a sh*t translation. |

The page you showed isn't working for me either. Don't know why, maybe my school computer server or something.
Either way, what's with the RR post? Normally you're pretty quick with a judgement or an opinion, so it's hard to understand what's your point. |
