====Confucianism====
[[Confucianism#Relationships|Confucianism]] is a study and theory of relationships, especially within hierarchies.<ref>{{cite web |url= http://www.iep.utm.edu/confuciu/ |title=Confucius |publisher=Internet Encyclopedia of Philosophy |first=Jeff |last=Richey |work=iep.utm.edu |year=2011 |access-date=August 11, 2011}}</ref> Social harmony—the central goal of Confucianism—results in part from every individual knowing their place in the social order and playing their part well. Particular duties arise from each person's particular situation in relation to others. The individual stands simultaneously in several different relationships with different people: as a junior in relation to parents and elders; and as a senior in relation to younger siblings, students, and others. Juniors are considered in Confucianism to owe their seniors reverence and seniors have duties of benevolence and concern toward juniors. A focus on mutuality is prevalent in East Asian cultures to this day.
