Chinese Democracy

Abstract

The main objective of this article is to present some factors which led Chinese authorities to illiberal democracy. Firstly, I will focus on the problematic issue of typology of the modern Chinese political system. Next, I will talk through factors which had an influence on choosing the so-called Chinese (collective) democracy. Subsequently, I will highlight some factors which are connected to Confucian thought. Those factors had a primary impact on forming the state and society during the era of emperors and today lead to illiberal democracy in China. In the end, I will shortly describe the question of “ethical responsibility”, which is one of the key issues of creating a social capital of a global character.
