Summary/Abstract: This paper attempts to reconstruct the pedagogical thought of Mozi and the Moist school, the preeminent ancient philosophical school in China, along with Daoism and Confucianism. The research refers to the work of Mozi and studies by contemporary experts on his philosophy. The basic pedagogical values or virtues identified by the philosopher are universal love, security (economic), peace, simplicity, modesty, self-restraint (of material needs), social activism, high morale of leaders and superiors. The fundamental dilemma of the Moist concept comes down to the state and religious sanctioning of the pedagogical virtues listed, which in the light of contemporary pedagogical research undermines the value of the concept.
