Abstract
Mohism and Confucianism are usually characterized as utilitarian and anti-utilitarian, respectively. This article argues that although Confucians do not espouse the kind of utilitarianism found in the Mozi, both Confucianism and Mohism qualify as forms of consequentialism in emphasizing that the outcome of a given behavior or action constitutes the basis for determining whether the latter qualifies as morally good. Through an analysis of the classical texts of the Analects and the Mengzi, I demonstrate that the similarities between the Confucian and Mohist perspectives on yi 義 and li 利 are much greater than their supposed differences, which have generally been taken for granted. Like Mohism, Confucianism upholds what we might call a "deliberated utilitarianism."

The Xishimen skarn iron deposit was confined to a deep fault and locates at the contact of small intrusions of monzodiorites with Pz–Mz carbonate rocks. It is represented by several banding and lenticular forms. The formation of ores is associated with the recycling processes of ore matter. The process proceeded in several stages. Primary sedimentary and volcanogenic-sedimentary ores were formed in Ar–Prt1 time. Then followed several stages of tectonic-magmatic activation, among which the most significant was Anshan stage (Jurassic-Cretaceous). Monzodiorite magma in the process of recycling was enriched by siderophilic elements of early Precambrian and formed a series of Fe deposits in the zone of deep faults.

In 2006, China decided to change its technology policy from relying mainly on technology transfer from developed countries to focusing on indigenous innovation. This article analyses the effectiveness of this policy change by studying the achievements of indigenous innovation and the mechanisms governing indigenous innovation in four industries. Government policy and strategy implications for firms are also discussed. (China/GIGA)
