Overall, Chikafusa places emphasis on the standpoint and position of the conservative aristocracy, and argues the combination of Emperor with court nobility (which really refers to the family of Sekkan (regents) and the Murakami branch of the Minamoto clan), joining together to rule all Japan and taking a leadership role over the warrior class, was the ideal polity (in particular, he draws a very clear distinction between nobles and Buddhist priests, whom he terms 'the (good) people,' and warriors, called just 'persons,' thereby reflecting, it has been argued, his own views of social status).
全体として、保守的な公家の立場を主張し、天皇と公家（＝摂関家と村上源氏）が日本国を統治して武士を統率するのが理想の国家像であるとする（特に公家や僧侶を「人（ひと）」、武士を「者（もの）」と明確に区別しているところに彼の身分観の反映がなされていると言われる）。
