The group pattern and differential pattern as describing the Chinese and Western societies not only reflect the differences in the social structure of China and the West, but also show the differences in the Chinese and Western home-state associations to a certain extent. Based on Hegel’s Principles of the Philosophy of Law and Zhou Feizhou’s One Book and One Body, this paper tries to find out where the differences between Chinese and German family-state associations lie. Based on the two discussions, the author believes that the differences between the two home-state associations lie in the different importance of the home, the different intermediate links in the transition from home to state, and the different political ethics. With the development of modern society, the community is in the process of continuous downgrading, while the Chinese family-state unity still has a certain vitality and vigor also shows that the Chinese and Western communities do not need to be destined. The social structure of modern Germany shows an obvious group pattern, and under the group pattern, the family-state connection in Germany lacks the intermediate link of transition from family to civil society. This is where the difference between the two countries lies.
