For these practical characters are summarized at political philosophy, it has the merit of examining clearly that compares Dasan and Haegang’s political leadership though the interpretation of Great Learning. In this paper, we classifies political leadership into core competencies and characters of action. After that, we compares philosophical characters between Dasan and Haegang’s interpretation of Daxue on the classified section. In the core competencies of political leadership section, qualification requirements of political leader are analyzed. In the characters of action section, philosophical character’s differences appeared when the core competencies turn into political activities are analyzed. Those are Chuseo(推恕) and Chuchk(推測) implied in Dasan and Haegang’s interpretation of Great Learning as a core conception. Thus, the comparison of political leadership between them has a method of study investigating how these two core conceptions are functioned to core competencies and characters of action. Above all, these comparisons have significance on identifying the original form and development aspect of nationalistic thought about state reformation ideas before the enlightenment period in korea.
