After the World War I, Max Weber revised and enlarged his "Confucianism and Taoism" thoroughly, on the basis of a huge amount of resent studies of China and the East Asia. Through the research of it's revising traces, we can know his project's meaning, which was neither the "evolutionary classification" nor the ethnocentristic "privative theory", but historical typological analyzing the social conditions, especially the construction of a way of life, of "another development" to the different society of modern western capitalism according to the relationship of tensions between Confucianism and Taoism.
