From what I've read of The Art of War, it seems more like a book of strategy for achieving military, political, and business goals than a philosophical work.

As for Confucianism, it seems overly repressive, though I would agree that too much freedom (and people thinking that they have rights they don't) would not be conducive to a peaceful society.
