Mencio fu uno dei grandi filosofi dell'antica Cina, secondo solo per influenza a Confucio, i cui insegnamenti difese e ampliò. Il Mencio, in cui racconta i suoi dialoghi con re, duchi e militari, così come altri filosofi, è uno dei Quattro Libri che costituiscono il corpus essenziale di Confucio. Riprende le teorie di Confucio su jen, o bontà e yi, rettitudine, spiegando che l'individuo può raggiungere l'armonia con l'umanità e l'universo perfezionando la sua innata natura morale e agendo con benevolenza e giustizia. Le visioni sorprendentemente moderne di Mencio sui doveri dei sudditi e dei loro governanti o sui mali della guerra, crearono un'ortodossia confuciana che è rimasta intatta dal terzo secolo a.C.

Mencius (372-298 BC) was one of the greatest Chinese philosophers, focusing on political theory and practice. Mencius, like Confucius, believed that rulers were divinely placed in order to guarantee peace and order among the people they rule. Unlike Confucius, Mencius believed that if a ruler failed to bring peace and order about, then the people could be absolved of all loyalty to that ruler and were justified to revolt.
D. C. Lau is a Professor at the University of Hong Kong.
