Summary/Abstract: The Confucian idea of the Kingly Way (王道,wangdao in Chinese, odō in Japanese) took central place in state doctrine of Manchukuo, especially during early period of existence of this Japan-founded state. It was invoked in tthe context of many different spheres of its activity. Moreover, thinkers like Zheng Xiaoxu or Tachibana Shiraki created their own interpretations of this idea. Analysis of its usage and interpretation in Manchukuo should be considered an important subject from the perspective of Chinese history as well as the history of Confucian political thought.
