It is found that Liu Zongzhou's view on the family and clan is not significantly different from the traditional Confucian scholars' “family and clan” theory. However, it is noteworthy that in the case of Liu Zongzhou, his own self-cultivating element is projected to maintain the order of the “family / clan”. In other words, it is like a request for moral training in the “family lesson” or a “book of commending good and recording bad(Zhangshanjiebu)” in the “clan regulation(Zongyao).” For him, the order problem of "family / clan" (Qijia) is regarded as the order problem within himself (under morality cultivation). Furthermore, his perspective on “family / clan” is that the stability of order within the family / clan can be directly linked to the nation (world) rather than the actual union of clan. For Liu Zongzhou, various kinds of activities such as rituals performed within the clan are symbolic rituals that reveal the “righteousness” of the emperors and subjects, and worshiping ancestors has the significance of clarifying the human morals of the entire country. If his death to the Ming dynasty is considered, Liu Zongzhou's view of “family / clan” is reasonable.
