Samenvatting	Huai-nan Tzu (139BC) was viewed, for its great diversity of subject-matter, ideas and style, by traditional Chinese scholars as a composite work of the Eclectic School. It is the author? s contention, however, that one overriding concern pervades the work the attempt to define the essential conditions for a Taoist political utopianism. The present study emphasizes Chapter Six of Huai-nan Tzu in expounding the theory of kan-ying STIMULUS-RESPONSE; RESONANCE, which postulates that all things in the universe are interrelated and influence each other according to pre-set patterns. Only in the True Man, who is ? one with Tao? and ? attuned to the cosmos?, does kan-ying attain its ultimate realization, ? the Great Peace? and ? the Great Merging?. ? After all,? concludes the author, ? it is in Huai-nan Tzu that we find the statement.? ? The relation of the Sage to Tao is like the relation of the sunflower to the sun; although they cannot be together all the time, the fidelity of their tendency never wavers.?
