Abstract: The Confucian morality originated in West Zhou Dynasty and was established during the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period. With the further enrichment and development of the socialization of the Confucian morality, Confucian scholars had gradually constructed an integrated ethical system. The Confucian morality lays the theoretical and moral foundation to achieve the great Confucian political ideal “Tian Xia Gui Ren” which means the world will become moral. On the basis of retracing the history of the origination and development of Confucian morality and extracting the spirit from originals on Confucian morality, this research summarized the historical experience on the socialization of Confucian morality, and inquired into how the socialization of Confucian morality is possible. This research also investigated the theoretical and practical paradigm of modern transformation of the approach of socialization of Confucian morality. Therefore, this research is significant for inheriting the splendid traditional culture and promoting and practicing the core socialist values in the new era of China.

Key words: Confucian morality, the approach of socialization, modern transformation
