(6pg) Confucius’ Analects — Ethical system or not?

Confucius twice claims that his teachings can be strung together on a “single thread” (Analects 4.15 and 15.3). How do you understand this statement? Do the Analectspresent a unified set of teachings? Can these teachings be referred to as an “ethical system,” or would this be a misleading characterization?
