With the establishment of the Republic of China as the demarcation line, the historical process of the system falls roughly into two phases – the first phase (1895-1912) being the brewing period for the system and the second phase (1912-1949) being its formative period. As a scholar in the early period of the Republic of China,Yang Changji is credited with significant contributions to the transformation of Chinese ethics thought and the creation of a modern disciplinary system for ethics. He was highly accomplished in the development of the theoretical system for ethics,in the expansion of education in ethics as an academic subject, and in the research of the transformation of paradigms and methodology. He also made groundbreaking contributions to the development of the disciplinary system of Western ethics in China.国家社科基金重点项目“儒学、儒教与儒家宗法集体主义”(13AZJ001
