Development
Qin Shi Huang was too brutal and soon perished. But Legalism was still affecting future generations, especially in the period of social unrest. To modern times, "new legalists"promoted the use of "Rule of law" instead of "Rule of man", "Times", "Fair, just and open".
秦太残暴，很快就亡国了。但法家的思想仍在影响后世，尤其在社会动荡的时期发挥作用。至近代，出现了章太炎，梁启超，沈家本等 “新法家”，提倡用“法治”代替“人治”， “与时俱进”，“公平，公正，公开”。
Influence on the building of modern rule of law

Han Wang son, Xunzi students, Li Si students. Known as one of the two most of the essence of Lao Tzu thought, he founded the legalist doctrine for China’s first unified dictatorship of the birth of the centralized state provides a theoretical basis.Han Fei loves his own country, but he is not valued by Hanwang, while the king but in order to get Han Fei and sent troops to attack South Korea.

After the Sri Lanka prison poison. Han Fei people die, but the legalists thought was reused by the Qin Ying Zheng Zheng, Feng Han Fei for the Qin country by the country to be. To help Qin country rich soldiers, the final unity of the six countries. Han Fei’s thought deep and advanced, far-reaching impact on future generations, is Chairman Mao’s most admired Chinese ancient thinkers. Chairman Mao once said: ancient Chinese as a politician, the basic are legal home.Han Fei will Shang Yang’s law, Shen not harm the surgery and Shen to the potential in one, is the master of the idea of the master; Han Fei will dialectics, simple materialism and law integration. Author of Han Fei, a total of fifty five, more than ten thousand words. In the pre-Qin philosophers prose is unique, showing that Han Fei attaches greatimportance to materialism and efficiencyist ideas, and actively advocate monarchist despotism theory, the purpose is to autocratic monarchs to provide rich and powerful thinking.Historical Records contains: Qin see solitary anger, five beetle book, said: sigh, Guaren see this person with the tour, die do not hate! We can see that the attention of the Qin Wang. Han Feizi is also an important source of indirect history of the pre-Qin period, which is one of the important sources of historical material deficiencies in the pre-Qin period. Many of the contemporary folklore and fables have bee the source of idioms.韩非子生平经历Han Fei is the Warring States period Korean aristocracy, was born in the Warring States period of South Korea’s capital Xinzheng (now Zhengzhou City, Henan Province, Zhengzhou City Zhengheng Gucheng). Han Fei is good at the name of the magic of learning, and its attribution to the Huang old. And Qin Xiang Li Si are Xunzi students. Han Fei article superior, even Li Si also sigh. Han Fei will be his own doctrine, traced back from the Taoist Huang Lao of the surgery, he Laozi Tao Te Ching has a considerable study, Han Fei, the old solution, Yu old and other articles, focus Expressed Han Fei’s philosophical point of view. Han Fei is a philosopher with materialism at the end of the Warring States Period and a master of thought. Han Fei witnessed the late Warring States Korea poor and weak, many times the letter Han Wang, hoping to change the rule of law at that time, not used by the use of non-pension situation, but its idea has not been adopted. Han Fei that this is honest and can not tolerate the evil in vain. He retreated the book, wrote the solitary anger beetle, inside and outside the storage, said Lin difficult and other works. His book spread to Qin, Qin Wang Han very much appreciate the talent. Soon, because Qin Guo attack Han, Han Wang had to use Han Fei, and sent him to make Qin. Han Fei was sent by Hanwang to Qin, Qin Wang Han Fei isvery much, but has not decided whether to retain. But the literary grace of Han Fei for Qin Wang Ying Zheng appreciated and much reuse. As the Sri Lanka proposed to destroy the six countries dominate the world of heaven and earth, and the primary goal is South Korea, but as South Korea’s son of Han Fei and Lisheng see the opposite (Han Fei Zhang Chuang Han Zhao Zhao), hinder the Qin unified plan, so Li to the king Refuse to refute Han Fei and Li Shi of political views. Han Fei want to save Han, Li Siyu off Korea. Because Han Fei and Li Si was a classmate, Lisi know that Han Fei was eloquent, worried that Ying Zheng was hired by Han Fei strategy, so on the Shuying political, stated the interests of which. He said: Han Fei came, may not think he can let Han retained, is the benefit of heavy Han. His debate rhetoric, to cover up the fraud, is to take advantage from the Qin, peep to make his right Han Youli things.Qin Wang that Li words of reason, they arrested Han Fei. Ting Wei put it into prison, and finally forced his suicide. Han Fei would like to go to the book before the emperor, was rejected. Later, the emperor regretted, sent people to forgive him, but Han Fei has died.Han Feizi’s essay is thoughtful, depressing bold, linguistic humor, fantastic in Ping Ping, and is artistic and artistic. Han Fei’s solitary anger, five beetle, said hard, said forest, from the storage five books, more than ten thousand words, between the lines, sigh things difficult, difficult life, read the world , Thousands of nostalgia.韩非子主要主张 politicalFeudal autocracyHan Fei advocated the establishment of a unified central and feudal aut horitarian state in the country’s political system. Han Fei-zi’s law, surgery and potential bined political ideology are important elements of feudal despotism. Han Fei also inherited some of the thoughts of the feudal autocracy in Xunzi, and further theoretical and systematic, and thus beethe advocate of feudal despotism.Although we can say that Confucianism Confucius Jun Jun, minister, father, son and Mencius father and son have pro, monarch and justice, couples are different and feudal despotism have a certain relationship, but not as Han Fei Speak clearly. Han Feizi Zhongxiao chapter, said: Chen Junjun, son of the father, wife and wife, the three governor of the rule of heaven, the three inverse of the world chaos, this world is also often. Han Fei, On the king, father, husband affiliation made sure, and the three of the cis as the world chaos often. This has the basic content of the three Gang. Coupled with Han Fei’s law, surgery, potential political ideas, so that the idea of feudal despotism basically formed.CentralizedHan Feizi inherited and summed up the thought and practice of the legalists during the Warring States period, and put forward the legalist theory of monarchy. (Han Feizi real right), the power of the state, to focus on the monarch (saints) a person in the hands of the monarch must have the right to have the right to have the right Potential to manage the world, the main by virtue, thousands of times the king, so the system of the world and the princes who, with its power and potential (Han Feizi master). To this end, the monarch should use a variety of means to remove the hereditary slave owners aristocracy, scattered its party wins its auxiliary (Han Feizi main road); at the same time, select a group of practiced feudal officials to replace them, Prime Minister will play in the state, fierce will be issued in the soldiers Wu (Han Feizi). Han Feizi also advocated the reform and the implementation of the rule of law, asked the waste of the king of the teachings (Han Fei Zi asked field), law to teach (Han Fei Zi). He stressed that the development of the law, it is necessary to strictly enforcing, no one can exception, so that the law is not expensive do not avoid the ministers, reward and no husband (HanFeizi degree). He also believes that only the implementation of torture heavy punishment, the people will be obedient, the munity can be stable, feudal rule to consolidate. Han Fei’s claims reflect the interests and demands of the new feudal landlord class, providing a theoretical basis for ending the feudal separatism and establishing a unified centralized feudal state.True matchHan Feizi argued that ‘the name is consistent’, that the monarch should be based on the subjects of speech and performance is consistent to decide merit reward and punishment.For the people, he absorbed his teacher Xunzi’s nature of the evil theory, that the people’s nature is withered and happy, to the law to restrain the people, tortured to the people, can So he thinks that the criminal law is precisely the performance of the people. (Han Feizi heart degree). Easy to ignore is that Han Fei is to reduce the people’s corvee and tax. He believes that a serious corvee and tax will only let the minister under the strong, not conducive to the rule of the king.For the minister, he thought to go to five beetles, against eight rape.(3) with a sword (referring to the Ranger); 4, the speaker (referring to the Confucian); 2, the speaker (referring to the vertical home); 3, with the sword (referring to the Ranger); 4 (Including those who depend on the aristocracy and evade military service); 5, business people. He believes that these people will disrupt the rule of law, is not conducive to farming war state of insects must be eradicated. The so-called eight rape, that is: 1 bed, refers to the monarch’s wife concubine; 2 in the next, refers to haiku, dwarf and other monarchs credible attendants; 3 father and brother, refers to the monarch of the uncle’s brother; 6 popular, refers to search for lobby ists to buy people’s minds, to create public opinion under the minister; 7 Wei Qiang, refers to the people who want to pleasethe monarch; 5 Min Meng 8 Quartet refers to the use of treasury financial resources to make great powers to cultivate personal forces under the minister. These people have good conditions to threaten the national security, like the anti-thieves like to prepare them.Han Fei’s claims reflect the interests and demands of the new feudal landlord class. Qin Shihuang unified China after the adoption of many political measures, is the application of Han Fei theory and development. Han Feizi is the end of the Warring States period South Korean legalists master Han Fei’s works. This book is now fifty-five, about ten million words, mos t of Han Fei’s own works. Han Fei Zi, a book, focusing on promoting the Korean illegal, academic, potential bination of the rule of law theory, reached the highest theory of the pre-Qin legalists, Qin unified six countries to provide theoretical weapons, but also for the future feudal autocracy System provides a theoretical basis.At that time, in the Chinese intellectual circles to Confucianism, Mohism for the show, advocating the law of the first king and retro, Han Feizi’s view is against the retro, advocated due to time. Han Feizi, according to the situation at that time, advocated the rule of law, made rewards, heavy penalties, heavy agriculture, fighting four policies. Han Fei Zi advocated the monarchical power, since the Qin Dynasty, the Chinese dynasties feudal dynasty governance concept are popular Han Feizi theory. ReformReform is strongReform and governance, change the map strong, is a major content of Han Fei thought. He inherited the Shang Yun different governance, the country can not ancient ideological tradition, put forward the endless repair ancient, illegal often point of view, advocated different things different, things are different. (Beetle)Han Fei advocated the theory of social history and evolution, thathistory is the development of the times, the contemporary must prevail in ancient times; people should be in accordance with the needs of reality to reform, do not have to follow the ancient tradition. Han Feizi analyzes human history with evolutionary historical point of view. He pided the history of mankind into ancient times, ancient times, ancient times, and now several stages, and then explain the different times of different times and solve the problem of the problem, that would like to use the old one way to manage the people of the world are The disciples.Han Fei’s evolutionary view of history was progressive at the time. He saw the development of human history, and use this development point of view to analyze human society.Han Feizi linked social phenomena with economic conditions, which was rare at the time. Han Feizi has a preliminary understanding of the relationship between economic and social chaos. It is noted that the relationship between population growth and wealth is the first thinker in Chinese history to bring people and money to bring social problems. Reform and reformChinese people used to respect past experience, this traditional way of thinking on Chinese philosophy has a huge impact. From the time of Confucius, most philosophers are looking for ancient authority to support their own doctrine. Confucius likes to invoke the ancient authority of the Western Zhou Dynasty Wen Wang, Zhou Gong. Mozi and Confucian debate, quoted than King Wen, Zhou Gong more ancient summer Yu. Mencius is able to override the Mohism, often quoted Yao and Shun, because they are legendary than Xiuyu earlier King. Finally, Taoism is better than Confucianism and Mohism, but also invited Fuxi, Shen Nong, it is said that they have a few hundred years earli er than Yao and Shun. The legalists’ claims are pletely different from them, and the legalists insist on the theory of historical evolution and believe that history is progressingand progressing, which is mendable in the philosophers.Legalists oppose conservative vintage ideas, advocate for reform, change plans strong. They think that history is moving forward, and that all laws and systems must develop with the development of history, neither retrogressive nor retrogressive. Shang Yang made clear that the illegal ancient, do not follow this proposition. Han Fei is further the development of Shang Yang’s proposition, put forward the time shift and the rule of chaos chaos, he put the old Confucian satire for the stalwart of the stupid people.Han Feizi pay attention to the study of history, that history is the continuous development of progress. He believes that if today’s world also praised the Yao, Shun, Tang, Wu of the Road must be a new holy laugh. So he advocated not repair ancient, can not often different things different things are different (Han Feizi), according to today’s actual to develop policies. His view of history provides a theoretical basis for the reform of the landlord class at that time.LawLaw-basedLegalists are the most important factions in the pre-Qin philosophers. They are known for their rule of law and rule of law, and have put forward a set of theories and methods. This provides an effective theoretical basis for the later establishment of the centralized Qin Dynasty, and later the Han Dynasty inherited the Qin Dynasty’s centralized system and the legal system, which is the ancient feudal society of our political and legal subject.The legalists have made contributions to jurisprudence, such as the origin, nature, function of the law and the basic problems such as the relationship between the law and the social economy, the times, the state power, the ethics, the customs, the natural environment and the populationand human nature Made a discussion, and fruitful.Legalists believe that people have good and evil or on the benefits of harm nature. Like the tube said, businessmen day and night, to catch thousands of miles do not feel far, because the interests of the front to attract him. Fishing people are not afraid of danger, counter-current and sailing, hundred miles away do not care, but also the pursuit of fishing interests. With this same idea, so Shang Yang was the conclusion: life is good and evil, the people can rule also.rule by lawHan Fei zi’s writings summed up the experience of the early legalists and formed a political ideology system integrating France as a center. Han Feizi summed up the Shang Yang, Shen not harm and Shen to the idea, the Shang Yang’s law, Shen not harm the surgery and the potential to integrate into one. He praised Shang Yang and Shen did not harm, at the same time pointed out that the biggest shorting of the doctrine is that there is no bination of law and surgery, and secondly, the second major drawback of business theory is not done, , Shang Jun not to do the law. Han Fei, according to his own point of view, discussed the content of the law and the relationship between the two, he believes that the state rule, it is necessary to use the power of the monarch, while the minister must follow the law. With the Shen harmless, Han Fei’s surgery mainly in the surgery to know the rape has developed. He believes that the monarch on the minister, can not be too trust, but also trial death. In the legal aspects, Han Fei special emphasis on the sentence to death thinking, stressed that torture heavy penalties.Particularly mendable is that Han Feizi for the first time clearly put forward the law is not expensive thinking, advocated not punish the ministers, reward and no husband. This is a great contribution to the rule of law in China, which has had a positive impact on the removal ofaristocratic privileges and the maintenance of the dignity of the law. Han Feizi that light law and surgery is not enough, there must be potential to ensure. Potential, that is, power, power. He praised the Shen said that the Yao for the man can not rule three people, and Jie for the emperor can mess to the world (difficult), put forward the law is the rule of the rule, Difficult ) argument.Han Feizi ‘s thought of ruling by law has adapted to the needs of China’ s historical development stage and played a certain guiding role in the process of establishing the feudal centralization system in China. Law is not expensiveConfucianism pay attention to: ceremony is not mon people, not on the doctor., And to Han Fei as the representative of the legal home to advocate before the law, everyone is equal. Even the law of the noble people, the power of people do not favoritism. Han Feizi degree: law is not expensive, the rope is not around the law of the law, the wise man can speak, the courage of Fu dare to fight, do not avoid the minister,To teach for lawHan Fei advocated the law to teach, meaning that in addition to the development of laws, but also must promote the law, universal legal knowledge, abide by the law, the use of the law, so that the whole society to form a knowledge, law, law-abiding good atmosphere. (Originally, Han Fei Zi Bee: so that the main country, no text of the book, to teach for the law.)Han Fei’s legal practitioners the greatest practitioners are Qin Shihuang, Qin’s education system, it is for the legalists thought. To teach the law is to implement the policy of the Qin Dynasty, to strengthen the ideological and legal system to consolidate one of the signs of centralization.Religion is opposed to ritualism. Qin did not reunify the six countries,Qin Xiaogong on the same Shang Yang, Gan Long, Du Zhiyu discussion of the law of the country, Shang Yang master Qin regime, they stressed the rule of law to replace the rule of law. The so-called practitioners practice and sage more ceremony (Shangjun book more law). He also wrote a memorial, that the Mingzhongzhongzhong produced in this world, and scattered its country, not a moment to forget the law (Shangjun book Shen law).PhilosophyLegalist thoughtSima Qian in the Historical Records of Laozi Han Fei Biography pointed out: Han Fei Xunhen spells of the law, and its attribution to the Huang Lao, Han Zi cited rope ink, cut things, things are not, are all in the moral Meaning . It shows that Han Fei’s thought originated from Taoism and sought the philosophical foundation of Lao Tzu’s simple materialist doctrine and dialectics for his art of the south of the man bined with his law, technique and potential, and opened up the Taoist form The way. In the book Han Fei Zi, whether it is solution, Yu old, or main road, Yang Quan, outside the reservoir that the lower right, eight by the main road, Han, the law, surgery, potential are derived from the Taoist political explanation, so that the Taoist inaction is not the same as that of Taoism, Han Fei in the solution of the old, Yu old, main road, Yang Quan articles, have learned the Taoist ideas. Han F ei’s roots of thought From Lao Tzu and Zheng elderly.Although Han Fei is Xunzi’s disciples, the idea of thinking is contrary to Xunzi, he did not inherit the Confucianism of Xunzi, but love the criminal spell of the school, and attributed to the ‘Huan g old school’, a set of ‘ ‘Law’ and perfect political domination theory. Han Fei summed up the legal family of three representatives of the people to Shen, Shen not harm, Shang Yang’s ideas, advocated that the king should use the ‘law’, ‘surgery’, ‘potential’ bination of the threecountries, this is the law of the broadcasters By.Qin Shihuang in the beginning of Han Fei works part of the contents of the article to admire: sigh, widowed to see this person with the tour, death does not hate carry on! Means that if you can see this person, with the tour After the death of Han Fei, contemporary national monarchs and ministers peting to study their works Han Feizi, Qin Shi Huang under his guidance, to plete the reunification of the six countries of the imperial industry.Han Feizi opposes the construction of the principle of political governance in the private emotional connection and the promotion of contemporary social morality, advocated the nature of self-interest as a prerequisite for the establishment of social order, emphasizing monarchy as the core of all things decision-making, monarchical is sacred Violation, the monarch should use the harsh law to reward the imperial governor, to establish a monarchy of the feudal state.Han Feizi in its Han Feizi which has solution and Yu old two, straight talk about their own ideas from Lao Tzu, so later called Taoist, meaning from the Taoist extension of the new legalists inside the idea. From the ideological point of view, Han Fei is the founder of the legalists; from the political point of view, Shang Yang is the most outstanding figures of the legalists. Shang Yang with its ideas and actions to create a country’s prosperity, laid the foundation of the unity of the world, creating a new era. Legalists of these two peak figures, from Lao Tzu got a wealth of nutrition.Road is changing, the world is changing, people are changing, society is changing, the way of governing society is also changing. But the road also has the corresponding stability, this stability, that is, people should abide by the code of conduct, in reality is the law. The law is established according to the road. The law must change with the times,and the law must be observed by all. Because the realization of all things change, Han Fei, Shang Yang with Lao Tzu, is also anti-traditional. Han Feizi take Lao Tzu ‘‘ inaction ‘thinking, I that life, do not need to stick to fixed forms and methods, as long as the road can be. Han Fei think that inaction, the implementation of the rule of the king, should be regardless of a particular preference, or do not like can not be under speculation and master, this view also includes governance practices, control methods, etc., should be volatile, difficult to grasp. So it will not be anti-Chen under the control, which is Shen harmless surgery.Han Fei’s school became a legal home, but also owned by Taoism. Its highest ideal for the Jun nothing, the law is not for, that the law and the king do not worry; Chen do not have to work, but the law and law-abiding, up and down inaction and the world rule. But its theory is too respect for the future, criticized for later generations.MaterialismHan Feizi opposes destiny thought, advocates the nature of heaven. He believes that Tao is the root of all things development, Tao congenital and exist. With the Road have all things, the days have to be high, to get to possession, the fighting was to bee its Granville, the sun and the moon was the constant light. Yu within the things, Han Fei also first put forward the philosophical concept of reason in the history of Chinese philosophy and discussed its relationship with Tao. He believes that Taoist things into all, the rationale for the material also. (Solution) reason in the Han Fei view, is the special law of things, people should respect the objective law.Han Yuzi’s epistemology inherited the ideological tradition of materialism in the pre-Qin philosophy. His view of opposition to pre-knowledge and because of the verdict has an important page in the history of Chinese philosophy. Han Feizi ‘s View on Pre - knowledge. Theso-called pre-knowledge is a priori. Han Fei advocated virtual to quiet, by observing things rather than speculation. Han Feizi put forward the famous name is right and wrong, because of the trial and speech (rape robbery) famous topic. Senate is a parative study, test is to use the action to test, is the practice. Han Fei that, without practice (reference) and how hard it is, is ignorant of the performance; can not determine the things and do according to, is self-deception. So he advocated the Lord of the officials, the prime minister will play in the state, fierce will be issued in the prison Wu. (Show).DialecticsHan Fei’s thought has many dialectical factors. To see things continue to change, that the theorem has survived, there is life and death, there are ups and downs. One of the existence of a matter of death, death at first glance, first Sheng and then decline, can not often. ( ) He first put forward the concept of contradiction in the history of Chinese philosophy. He talked about the spear and shield of the story, the analysis of the problem of thinking people still have a profound inspiration.Han Fei’s political thought has played a positive role in promoting the feudal reunification of China. He is the first philosopher to propose a unified and contradictory theory in Chinese history. His philosophical thought contains mutual materialism and dialectical thought. The people’s thinking. Han Fei deserves to be a gr eat thinker in Chinese history.Dao Sheng lawInaction, and all Taoism is the Taoist thought, it is also the idea of legalists, in the view of Han Fei, the king should have a quality is for nothing, their own show inaction The Han Feizi said: the king should be sun and the moon according to the four o’clock, clouds cloth wind; not Chi tired heart, not to private tired; treatment chaos in the magic,care is not reward and punishment, is a heavy balance. ( Han Feizi general ) Legalist three governanceShang Yang, Shen to, Shen not harm the three were advocated re-law, the momentum, heavy surgery, have their own characteristics. To the forerunner of the set of ideas Han Fei, Han Fei proposed the three closely integrated thinking. Law refers to the sound legal system, the potential refers to the power of the monarch, to the palm alone military and political power, surgery refers to the control ministers, to master the regime, the implementation of the law of the strategy and means. The main thing is to detect, to prevent the crime, to maintain the status of monarchy.。

On Realistic Significance of Classic Chinese Philosophy I. IntroductionChinese philosophy has a history of several thousand years. Its origins are often traced back to the Yi Jing (the Book of Changes), an ancient compendium of divination, which introduced some of the most fundamental terms of Chinese philosophy. Chinese Philosophy refers to any of several schools of philosophical thought in the Chinese tradition, including Confucianism, Taoism, Legalism, Buddhism and Moism.And the Confucianism,Taoism and Buddhism are regarded as the three roots of Chinese culture. The influence of these philosophies not only came to be important in China but also was powerful in shaping the social and political life of other countries. The beginning of these awesome philosophies can trace back to the Zhou Dynasty because of the special history background. The Zhou period witnessed the “contention of one hundred schools of thought”. There are some great figures among them are Confucius, Mencius, Lao Zi, Zhuang Zi, Mo Zi and Han Fei Zi. These philosophers have an great influence on later Chinese thought. I would like to expound the legalism in this article.II. Legalism and Its Practical Value2.1 Introduction to legalismLegalism is an approach to the analysis of legal questions characterized by abstract logical reasoning focusing on the applicablelegal text, such as a constitution, legislation, or case law, rather than on the social, economic, or political context. Most of the famous Legalists of ancient China were advisers to rulers who were organizing society on a rational basis and finding means to strengthen their states agriculturally and militarily. Instead of being devoted to conformity to the processes of nature, the Legalists were interested in the conformity which could be imposed through government institutions. They are interested in controlling people's lives and actions through laws and punishments. The advice these Legalists gave tended in the direction of regulating every aspect of people's lives so that they would have the discipline to work hard in the fields and fight hard on the battlefields. Many of the laws they recommended were extremely harsh.In Chinese philosophy, the principles and practices of a school of political theorists advocating strict legal control over all activities, a system of rewards and punishments uniform for all classes, and an absolute monarchy.2.2 Introduction to Han Fei“Legalism” is a term that has long been used to categorize a group of early Chinese philosophers, including Han Fei (Han Feizi), Shen Dao, Shen Buhai, and Shang Yang. This essay has the goal of introducing the idea of ‘Legalism’ and laying out aspects of the political thought of Han Fei, the most prominent of these thinkers. At the end of Warring State,Han Fei complex the thoughts of legalism and became the most outstanding representative of the legalism. The Han Fei advocates a system of laws that enable the ruler to govern efficiently and even ruthlessly. Han Fei conclusion the conception of the power and position (shi), a dministrative techniques and methods (shu) and a Comprehensive system of laws (fa). There is a quote from Han Fei: “People are submissive to power, and few of them can be influenced by doctrines of righteousness.” Han Fei lived in the third century B.C. , served for a time at the Qin court but was put to death in 233 B.C. in a plot instigated by his one-time friend, Li Si, a chief minister to the first emperor of the Qin.2.3 Rule of Law and Its Implication to Modern SocietyIn the state of Qin, where Legalist advisers were most influential, rewards might be generous, but death and mutilation were often the order of the day. As they reflected on the harshness of Qin rule and the bleakness of Legalist ideas about human nature, many Chinese were convinced that it is easier to make laws to compel people to behave in certain ways than to inspire them to behave morally. But over the long run, law without morality is a weak basis for a stable society.From the view of Legalists we should also learn some valuable essence -- to keep step with the times, conform to the trend of the eras, and insist developing and making a progress. In our society, we should learn practical thoughts of legalist school thought, the legalist thought themost effectively way is the rule of law, not the rule of man. In this way, our society will be more justice. There are many phenomenons that officials do something bad for their private benefits. So we should learn more about legalism and establish and improve the legal system, strengthen the power of laws. So long as the legalism be suitable in different time, we need to amend the status laws constantly. The currently law should be healthy for the development of our society. To achieve the rules of law, it is necessary to improve laws regulations, and I think it’s the best way to inherit and protect our traditional culture.。

It emerged during the Warring States period (475-221 BCE) and exerted a significant influence on the development of Chinese legal and political systems.The Legalists emphasized the importance of strict laws, centralized authority, and the power of the state. One of the key figures associated with this school of thought is Han Feizi, who wrote extensively on governance and statecraft.Legalist thinkers believed that human nature was inherently selfish and that people could only be governed through a system of rewards and punishments. They advocated for the implementation of clear and harsh laws to maintain social order and stability. For example, the Legalistsargued that severe penalties should be imposed on those who violated the law, regardless of their social status.Legalist principles were put into practice by several rulers during the Warring States period, most notably by Qin Shi Huang, the first emperor of China.

Under his rule, Legalist policies such as standardization of weights and measures, and the establishment of a uniform legal code, were implemented to strengthen the state.Despite its effectiveness in centralizing power and maintaining social order, Legalism was often criticized for its harsh and authoritarian methods. Confucian scholars, in particular, opposed Legalist ideas, advocating instead for benevolent governance and moral education.In summary, the Legalist School was a significant philosophical and political movement in ancient China, advocating for strict laws, centralized authority, and the power of the state.

May 20th Unit Seven:Han Fei, Shang Yang andLegalismGroup members: Cathy 080520090040Eva 080520090037Una 080520090036Abby 080520090038The early thought behind Legalism was first formed by Han Fei Tzu and was further developed by Li Si as a realist reform oriented philosophy meant to strengthen government and reinforce adherence to the law. Legalism fully emerged during the Warring States Period, a critical point in ancient Chinese history. The Warring States Period and the preceding were marked by frequent violence and war, and many new philosophies were founded to cope with the environment of the time including, Daoism, Confucianism, and Mohism.Some of the first adopters of Legalism were the statesman Shang Yang of the State of Qin. The Qin Dynasty would eventually conquer six other feudal states and create what is regarded as the first true Chinese Empire. Previously the army had been controlled by nobles and constituted of feudal levies. Now generals could come from any part of society, provided they had sufficient skill. In addition, troops were highly trained and disciplined. From then on, Qin was taking its shape to become the most powerful state in China before it eventually brought all of the six other states together (Qi, Chu, Han, Yan, Zhao, and Wei) under Qin Shi Huang.Ⅱ. The major thoughts of Legalism①Legalists emphasized on the law, and opposed the Confucian “rites”. The laws supported by the Legalists were meant to support the state, the emperor, and his military. They were also reform-oriented and innovative. In theory, the Legalists believed that if the punishments were heavy and the law equally applied, neither the powerful nor the weak would be able to escape from the control of state. The Legalists especially emphasized pragmatism over precedence and custom as the basis of law.②Evaluation of human nature：Legalists think people have the nature such like” enjoy profits and hate harms" or "approach the good things and be away from the bad things”. With t he same idea, so Shang Yang was concluded: “people lived with likes and dislike s, so they can be managed."③The view of history: Legalists opposed the conservative thoughts, and advocated to reform. They believed that history moved forward, all the laws and institutions should be developed with the development of history. Shang Yang clearly put forward the "don’t copy the past and follow the present" proposition.④Statecrafts: Shang Yang, Shen Dao, Shen Buhai are pay more attention to “Fa”,”Shu”,“Shi”, and have their own characteristics. And then, Han Fei put these three ideas together.In later dynasties, Legalism was discredited and ceased to be an independent school of thought. However, both ancient and modern Confucian observers of Chinese politics have argued that some Legalist ideas have merged with mainstream Confucianism and still play a major role in government. Confucian values are used to sugarcoat the harsh Legalist ideas that underlie the Imperial system. During the Sui and Tang dynasty, Buddhist ideas were also part of the external face of the imperial system.Ⅳ. Han FeiHan fei is one of the philosophers in the Warring States Period of Chinese history. Legalism which was founded by him was the theoretical basis in that period. He wrote a book named Hanfeizi, which including all his thoughts. It is very famous in our history. In this book he attacked the Confucianism. There are some famous views from him. One was rules by law. He believed that to govern the state by law is to reward the right and punish the wrong and that laws are the keys to the construction of a strong sovereign and an effective government. He also believed that everyone was equal before laws. Another important thought was Centralization of authority. He thought a leader should have a lot of power so that he can lead others do everything well. Third, human nature is evil and people should be punished according to their actions. After Qinshihuang unified China, many of his views were taken as the political measures.Ⅴ. Comparison with Confucianism and TaoismApart from the Confucianist Xun zi, who was his teacher, the other main source for his political theories was Lao zi's Daoist work, the Dao De Jing,（道德经）which he interpreted as a political text. He saw the Tao as a natural law that everyone and everything was forced to follow. Parallel to this, he believed that an ideal ruler made laws, like an inevitable force of nature that the people could not resist.His philosophy was very influential on Qin Shi Huang, becoming one of the guiding principles of the ruler's policies. After the early demise of the Qin Dynasty, Han Fei's philosophy was officially vilified by the following Han Dynasty. Han Fei's political theory continued to heavily influence every dynasty afterwards, and the Confucian ideal of a rule without laws was never again realized.Han Fei's philosophy experienced a renewed interest under the rule of the Communist Party during the leadership of Mao Zedong , who personally admired some of the principles laid out in it. Ⅵ. Shang YangShang Yang (390 BC – 338 BC) was an important statesman and political philosopher of the State of Qin during the Warring States Period of Chinese history. Born Wei Yang in the State of Wei, with the support of Duke Xiao of Qin Yang enacted numerous reforms in Qin. These were in accordance with his legalist philosophy as recorded in The Book of Lord Shang and assisted Qin in its change from a peripheral state to that of a militarily powerful and strongly centralized kingdom. He changed the administration of the state through an emphasis on meritocracy and devolvement of power from the nobility. He proposed a complete reform of the political, social, and economic structure of the state. He advocated strengthening the judicial system and the imposition of severe punishments for crimes of all kinds. Yang's reforms were more thorough and extreme than those of other states. Under Yang's tenure, Qin quickly caught up with and surpassed the reforms of other states.He is credited by Han Feizi with the creation of two theories;Ding Fa (定法; fixing the standards)Yi Min (一民; treating the people as one)Shang Yang legalists aware of the objective reality of profit-driven human nature, abandoned humanity and justice and turned to humanities which is law-centred, and proposed the moralization thought of good morals and cultivation.The school of Shang Yang believed that the causes of the formation of the criminal psychology were that the people were "deceitful and hypercritical," "fussing about personal gains," "lightly punished" or "unpunished" when committed crimes, and that the officials "did evils for the same interest.Ⅶ. Summary:Now let me make the conclusion to you. From my partners introduction we can know that the most famous thought of Legalism is "rule by law". In our opinions, we think that law was the part and parcel thing in that period. On the positive side, we think law limited the behavior of people. It put forward that "ding fen zhi zheng"（定分止争）and "xing gong ju bao"（兴功拒暴）to courage people do the good things and make the illegal people feel worried. But everything has two sides,on the opposite side. There were two shortcomings: First, it said that "xing yong yu jiang guo"(刑用于将过）,which means that it has the equal treatment between a person with the crime thought and a person with the crime behavior. That showed the idea of heavy sentence. It was unequal. Second, it also said that law was made by the leaders, so they could do everything what they want to do. That was dictatorial. And it also neglected the society moral. But Legalism gave us a good example in today's law developing. We think if Legalism in that period can add the moral and make everybody equal before law, it would be very perfect.。

It emphasized strict adherence to laws, strong central authority, and severe punishment for any violation. The philosophy was developed by Han Fei, Li Si, and Shang Yang, who believed that a strong and efficient government was crucial for maintaining social order and stability.One of the key principles of Legalism is the beliefthat human nature is inherently evil. According to Legalists, people are driven by their selfish desires and are prone to commit immoral acts if left unchecked. Therefore, strict laws and harsh punishments are necessary to keep individuals in line and prevent chaos.For example, during the reign of Emperor Qin Shi Huang, who was a strong advocate of Legalism, the legal code wasstrictly enforced. Any violation, no matter how small, was met with severe punishment. This approach was believed to deter potential wrongdoers and maintain social order.Another important aspect of Legalism is the idea of rewarding and punishing based on merit. Legalists believed that individuals should be rewarded for their contributions to society and punished for their mistakes. This system of rewards and punishments was seen as a way to motivate people to work hard and fulfill their duties.In contrast to Confucianism, which emphasized moral virtue and the importance of cultivating one's character, Legalism focused on the practical aspects of governance.

法家思想作文1000字英文回答：Legalism, also known as the School of Law or Fa-Jia, was a prominent school of thought during the Warring States period in ancient China. It emphasized strict adherence to laws and regulations as the means to maintain social order and achieve political stability. As a philosophy, Legalism focused on the importance of a strong central government and the use of rewards and punishments to control the behavior of individuals.One of the key principles of Legalism is the belief in the inherent selfishness and greed of human nature. Legalists argued that people are naturally inclined to pursue their own interests and desires, and therefore,strict laws and regulations are necessary to prevent chaos and maintain social order. For example, in the Legalist state of Qin, harsh punishments were imposed for even minor offenses, such as stealing or disrespecting authority. Thiscreated a climate of fear and deterrence, which the Legalists believed was essential for social control.Another important aspect of Legalism is the emphasis on the role of the ruler. Legalists believed that a strong and autocratic ruler is essential for effective governance. They advocated for the concentration of power in the hands of the ruler, who would then enforce laws and regulations impartially. The ruler's authority was unquestionable, and any opposition or dissent was seen as a threat to the stability of the state. This approach can be seen in the example of the Legalist ruler, Shang Yang, who implemented a series of reforms in the state of Qin, including the standardization of laws and the establishment of a bureaucratic system.中文回答：法家思想，又称为法家学派或者说是法家学说，是中国古代战国时期的一种重要思想流派。

法家思想英文作文

法家思想英文作文Legalism is a school of thought that emphasizes the importance of strict laws and harsh punishments in maintaining social order.

法家主要思想和人物英语作文

法家主要思想和人物英语作文英文回答：The Legalists were a school of Chinese philosophy that flourished during the Warring States period (475-221 BCE). They believed that the only way to achieve order and stability in society was through strict laws and harsh punishments. The Legalists rejected the traditional Confucian values of benevolence and righteousness, arguing that these values were impractical and ineffective in governing a large and complex society.One of the main tenets of Legalism is that human nature is inherently selfish and evil. The Legalists believed that people are only motivated by their own self-interest and that they will always seek to maximize their own gain, regardless of the cost to others. This view of human nature led the Legalists to believe that it was necessary to use strict laws and harsh punishments to control the people and prevent them from acting on their selfish impulses.The Legalists also believed that the state should beall-powerful and that the individual should have no rights or freedoms. They argued that the state was the only entity capable of maintaining order and stability, and that any attempt to limit the power of the state would only lead to chaos and disorder. The Legalists also believed that the law should be applied equally to everyone, regardless of their social status or wealth. They argued that the law should be a force for good in society, and that it should not be used to protect the interests of the powerful at the expense of the weak.Some of the most famous Legalists include Han Fei Zi, Li Si, and Shang Yang. Han Fei Zi was a philosopher who lived during the Warring States period. He is best knownfor his book, the Han Fei Zi, which is one of the most important works of Legalist philosophy. Li Si was a statesman who served as the chief minister of the Qin state during the Warring States period. He is credited with helping to unify China under the Qin dynasty. Shang Yang was a reformer who served as the chief minister of the Qinstate during the Warring States period. He is credited with implementing a series of legal reforms that helped to strengthen the Qin state and pave the way for its eventual unification of China.Legalism had a significant impact on Chinese history. The Legalist ideals of strict laws and harsh punishments were adopted by the Qin dynasty, which ruled China from 221 to 206 BCE. The Qin dynasty was able to unify China for the first time in its history, but its rule was also marked by tyranny and oppression. The Legalist ideals were also adopted by later Chinese dynasties, but they were eventually replaced by the more Confucian-oriented philosophies of the Song dynasty (960-1279 CE).Today, Legalism is still a significant force in Chinese thought and politics. The Chinese government continues to rely on strict laws and harsh punishments to maintain order and stability. However, the Chinese government also recognizes the importance of Confucian values such as benevolence and righteousness. As a result, the Chinese government has adopted a pragmatic approach to governancethat combines elements of both Legalism and Confucianism.中文回答：法家是战国时期兴起的一个中国哲学流派。

儒道墨法四家思想总结英文翻译

儒道墨法四家思想总结英文翻译The Summary of the Four Schools of Thought in Confucianism, Daoism, Legalism, and MohismIntroduction:In ancient China, the four major schools of thought of Confucianism, Daoism, Legalism, and Mohism emerged, each presenting their distinct philosophies and beliefs. This article aims to provide a summary of these four schools of thought and their contributions to Chinese history and culture.Confucianism:Confucianism, founded by Confucius, focuses on the importance of moral behavior and the cultivation of benevolence in society. The core belief of Confucianism is the concept of Ren, which emphasizes the cultivation of virtues, such as filial piety, loyalty, sincerity, and righteousness. Confucianism promotes the ideals of social harmony, ethical conduct, and respect for authority. The Analects of Confucius, a collection of the teachings and sayings of Confucius, serve as a fundamental text of Confucian philosophy. Confucianism played a significant role in shaping the Chinese moral and social order, as well as the education system for centuries.Daoism:Daoism, attributed to Laozi, revolves around the concept of Dao, which can be translated as "the Way" or the natural order of the universe. Daoism promotes a balanced and harmonious relationship between humans and nature, as well as the cultivation of inner peace and tranquility. Central concepts in Daoism includeWu Wei, an idea of non-action or effortless action, and the beliefin the unifying force of Yin and Yang. The Dao De Jing, a philosophical text attributed to Laozi, serves as a primary source of Daoist teachings. Daoism has influenced various aspects of Chinese culture, including art, literature, medicine, and martial arts. Legalism:Legalism, developed by Han Feizi and Li Si, advocates for strict adherence to laws and regulations to effectively maintain social order and control. Legalists believe that humans are inherently selfish and prone to misconduct, necessitating strong governing institutions and harsh punishment to deter unlawful behavior. The philosophy of Legalism prioritizes the ruling class's authority and emphasizes rewards and punishments as the primary method of governance. Legalism played a significant role during the Qin Dynasty and greatly influenced subsequent Chinese dynasties in terms of law, administration, and policy-making.Mohism:Mohism, founded by Mozi, emphasizes the universal love and impartial care for all people. It opposes wars, discrimination, and extravagant displays of wealth. Mohism advocates for the practice of practical and useful knowledge, as well as the pursuit of utilitarianism for the benefit of society as a whole. Mohism promotes the belief that people should treat others with fairness and equality, and that moral principles should guide all aspects of human conduct. Despite its decline in popularity after the Warring States period, Mohism has left a lasting impact on Chinese ethical and social thought.Conclusion:The four major schools of thought in ancient China, namely Confucianism, Daoism, Legalism, and Mohism, have greatly shaped Chinese history, culture, and philosophical traditions. Confucianism promotes moral behavior and social harmony, Daoism emphasizes harmony with nature and inner peace, Legalism emphasizes strong governance through strict laws and punishments, and Mohism advocates for universal love and practical knowledge. These schools of thought represent diverse perspectives on ethics, governance, and social relations, contributing to the rich legacy of Chinese philosophical traditions.。

儒家道家法家英文

儒家道家法家英文Confucianism, Taoism, and Legalism: The Tripartite Foundations of Chinese PhilosophyConfucianism, Taoism, and Legalism are the three major philosophical traditions that have shaped the intellectual landscape of China for centuries. These three schools of thought, although distinct in their core beliefs and approaches, have collectively exerted a profound influence on Chinese society, politics, and culture.Confucianism, founded by the renowned philosopher Confucius, emphasizes the importance of social harmony, moral cultivation, and the cultivation of virtuous character. At the heart of Confucianism lies the concept of ren, which translates to benevolence or humaneness. Confucians believe that the ideal society can be achieved through the cultivation of moral virtues, such as filial piety, loyalty, and propriety. The Analects, a collection of Confucius's teachings, serves as the foundational text for this philosophical tradition.Taoism, on the other hand, is marked by its reverence for the natural order and its emphasis on the principle of non-action (wu wei). Developed by the legendary philosopher Laozi, Taoism encouragesindividuals to embrace the inherent harmony of the universe and to live in accordance with the Tao, the ultimate source of all existence. The Tao Te Ching, attributed to Laozi, is the seminal text of Taoism and outlines the fundamental principles of this philosophical tradition.In contrast to the humanistic and naturalistic approaches of Confucianism and Taoism, Legalism emerged as a pragmatic and authoritarian philosophy that focused on the establishment of a strong and efficient state. Advocated by thinkers such as Shang Yang, Li Si, and Han Feizi, Legalism emphasizes the importance of strict laws, rigid bureaucratic structures, and the centralization of power to achieve political and social stability. The Legalists believed that the ultimate goal of the state was to maintain order and maximize the power of the ruling class.Despite their differences, these three philosophical traditions share a common heritage and have profoundly shaped the course of Chinese history. Confucianism, with its emphasis on social harmony and moral cultivation, has largely influenced the development of Chinese culture and values, particularly in the realm of education and interpersonal relationships. Taoism, with its emphasis on the natural order and the principle of non-action, has contributed to Chinese art, literature, and the appreciation of the natural world. Legalism, on the other hand, has had a significant impact on the development ofChinese statecraft and the organization of political institutions.The interplay and synthesis of these three philosophical traditions have often been the subject of scholarly debates and discussions. While each school of thought has its distinct characteristics and approaches, they have also been known to borrow and incorporate ideas from one another, leading to the emergence of various syncretic movements and interpretations.In the modern era, the influence of Confucianism, Taoism, and Legalism continues to be felt, both in China and throughout the broader Asian region. These philosophical frameworks have been reinterpreted and adapted to address contemporary challenges, and their relevance remains a subject of ongoing discourse and exploration.In conclusion, Confucianism, Taoism, and Legalism represent the three foundational pillars of Chinese philosophy, each contributing to the rich tapestry of Chinese intellectual and cultural heritage. Understanding the nuances and interrelationships of these philosophical traditions is crucial for a deeper appreciation of China's past, present, and future.。

法家的英语作文

法家的英语作文In the vast tapestry of ancient Chinese philosophy, Legalism stands as a distinct and influential school of thought. Originating during the Warring States period (475-221 BC), Legalism was a political philosophy that emphasized strict laws, order, and the authority of the ruler. It was in stark contrast to the more ethical and moral approaches of Confucianism and Daoism.The Legalists believed that human nature was inherently selfish and that individuals would act in their own self-interest without the guiding hand of a strong legal system. This view led to the development of a comprehensive legal framework designed to regulate behavior and maintain social order. The most famous Legalist thinker, Han Feizi, argued that laws should be clear, consistent, and strictly enforced to ensure that everyone, regardless of their social status, was held accountable for their actions.One of the key principles of Legalism was the concept of "rule by law" (法治), which advocated for the impartial application of laws to all citizens. This principle was seen as essential for the stability and prosperity of the state. Legalists also emphasized the importance of a strong and centralized government, with the ruler possessing absolute power to enforce laws and maintain order.However, Legalism was not without its critics. Confucianscholars, in particular, argued that Legalism neglected the moral and ethical development of individuals and society. They believed that a ruler should lead by example and cultivate virtue in their subjects, rather than relyingsolely on the force of law.Despite these criticisms, Legalism had a significant impact on the development of Chinese political systems, particularly during the Qin Dynasty (221-206 BC). The first emperor of China, Qin Shi Huang, was a staunch supporter of Legalist principles and used them to unify China and establish a centralized, bureaucratic state.In conclusion, Legalism offers a fascinating perspective on the role of law and governance in society. Its emphasis on strict laws and a strong central authority has had a lasting influence on Chinese political thought and practice. While it may not have been the most popular or widely accepted philosophy of its time, its legacy is undeniable and continues to be studied and debated by scholars today.。
