Este artigo reflete sobre como combinar os princípios confucionistas de piedade filial e benevolência com a moderna governança da sociedade do envelhecimento, por meio de uma revisão da literatura e estudos de caso, com o objetivo de melhorar a qualidade de vida dos idosos e promover a harmonia social, integrando os valores tradicionais às políticas modernas. O texto analisa os desafios trazidos pelo envelhecimento à sociedade chinesa e explora como resolver os problemas sociais causados pelo envelhecimento, através desses valores tradicionais. Os resultados indicam que os ideais confucionistas de piedade filial e benevolência fornecem orientação moral e base cultural para respeitar e cuidar dos idosos. O conceito de piedade filial enfatiza o respeito e o cuidado dos filhos para com seus pais, enquanto a ideia de benevolência defende o cuidado e o apoio aos idosos, em toda a sociedade. É fundamental integrar esses valores tradicionais com políticas nacionais modernas na construção de uma sociedade civilizada de idosos. Ao fazer isso, a China pode melhorar a qualidade de vida de seus cidadãos idosos e preparar o caminho para uma estrutura social respeitosa e atenciosa.
