A Review on Zheng Kai’s A Survey on Daoist Political Philosophy

Daoist political philosophy is a hot point in the study of Chinese philosophy. This paper introduces and comments on Professor Zheng Kai’s new book from four aspects, including the concept of Daoist political philosophy, the political philosophy of Laozi and Zhuangzi, the political philosophy of Huang Laodao, and the comparison between the political philosophy of Confucianism and Daoism. While speak highly of the systematic integration of the study in Daoist political philosophy, I also point out the shortcomings of this book.
