Neo-Confucianism and its Political Application during the Ming Dynasty.
Summary: This essay will examine the political application of Neo-Confucianism in China under the Ming dynasty. It will be argued that the syncretism of Neo-Confucian scholars during the Ming period allowed them to adapt metaphysical elements of other belief systems such as Taoism, and incorporate these into a practical guide to political action.
