In this episode of 22 George Street, we explore how the deeply rooted hierarchical value system (阶级差序) shapes Chinese society. From probing questions about status to relentless power dynamics, we discuss how these behaviors stem from Confucian ideals that prioritize rank and dominance.
We trace the historical and philosophical roots of this mindset and contrast it with Western ideals of equality and individual autonomy. Beyond personal interactions, we examine how hierarchical thinking influences China’s international relations, fostering zero-sum strategies over cooperation.
Finally, we reflect on the consequences of this value system for China’s future, arguing that without a shift toward more egalitarian values, progress may remain constrained by cycles of competition and mistrust. This episode offers a critical look at the cultural forces shaping one of the world’s most complex societies.
