Recent proposals concerning Confucian meritocratic perfectionism
have justified Confucian perfectionism in terms of political
meritocracy. In contrast, 'Confucian democratic perfectionism' is a
form of comprehensive Confucian perfectionism that can accommodate
a plurality of values in civil society. It is also fully compatible
with core values of democracy such as popular sovereignty,
political equality, and the right to political participation.
Sungmoon Kim presents 'public reason Confucianism' as the most
attractive option for contemporary East Asian societies that are
historically and culturally Confucian. Public reason Confucianism
is a particular style of Confucian democratic perfectionism in
which comprehensive Confucianism is connected with perfectionism
via a distinctive form of public reason. It calls for an active
role for the democratic state in promoting a Confucian conception
of the good life, at the heart of which are such core Confucian
values as filial piety and ritual propriety.
