Confucian ritual religion (s 礼教, t 禮教 Lǐjiào, "rites' transmission", also called 名教 Míngjiào, the "names' transmission"), or the Confucian civil religion,{{sfnb|Dessein|2014}} defines the civil religion of China. It consists in the state-endorsed ceremonies and sacrifices (cults), held according to Confucian modalities, dedicated to those gods which represent the theologico-political origin of the state itself and the Chinese civilisation.{{sfnb|Billioud|Thoraval|2015|pp=173-174}} These rituals have undergone a great revitalisation in post-Maoist China creating a public space in which the Chinese state and popular Confucian movements jostle and negotiate with each other.{{sfnb|Billioud|Thoraval|2015|pp=173-174}}

Worship of cosmological gods and of Confucius,{{sfnb|Billioud|Thoraval|2009}}{{sfnb|Billioud|Thoraval|2015|pp=173-174}} is carried out regularly at consecrated public spaces
