Filial piety and respect for older people is a cultural concept as well as a social construct and policy practice. It is originated from culture and concept and has already become a value guide and a social environment element of China’s aging-related policy system. This paper traced historical changes of the concept of filial piety, analyzed modern legal regulations of filial piety and respect for older adults, and combed policy developments and important practices in this aspect before and after China entered the aging society. In the new historical period, we should innovatively promote filial piety and respect for older persons on the basis of inheriting history, so that the traditional culture of filial piety can be invigorated.
