| Abstract | Concomitant to the rise of China is an increasing interest in Chinese philosophy. Some scholars have focused on Confucian views on international order and war to interpret or predict Chinese foreign policies. Due attention has been paid to Confucian just war theory. However, the topic of retributive war remains understudied. A few works have been published on this topic. They tend to concentrate on exceptional cases, arguing that Confucianism zealously advocates war for retaliation. However, as argued in this study, although Confucianism approves blood vengeance, it does not approve of war as a means of revenge. This intriguing phenomenon might clarify the changing roles and relevance of the academic discourse of Chinese philosophy in the intellectual and political arenas today. |
