The revival of China's love-affair with the ideas of Confucius has taken 
  another significant step forward after 1,000 members of China's most 
  powerful aristocratic clan unveiled the first complete edition of their 
  family tree for more than 70 years.

Amid the blast of horns and the thumping of drums which shook the ground at 
  the great temple in the sage's ancestral town of Qufu, the 80-volume 
  genealogy containing 2 million names was unveiled by the clan's leading 
  elder in China.

"After more than 70 years our family is united again, and we have 
  gathered to witness this historical moment which is not only a commemoration 
  of our ancestors but a continuation of our nation's history," said 
  83-year-old Kong Deyong.

Since the 1990s China's ruling Communist Party has turned back to many 
  traditional Confucian ideas, emphasising the need for social harmony and 
  respect for authority in an increasingly divided and materialistic society.
