Equality is one of the major ideals of modern society. We must recognize that there are different forms of equality and that there are other forms of inequality that ensue in any form of equality. This article examines the notion of equality and inequality in Confucian intellectual traditions in the economic, ethical, and political dimensions. It is argued that the main characteristic of the Confucian concept of equality is proportional equality and the ensuing related aspects of inequality. The Confucian concept of equality is an important part of its ideal society and attempts to explore the contemporary meaning of this concept.
