History live broadcast: the beginning is Qin Shihuang's live broadcast of the subjugation of th

"During the period of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, the ideas and concepts of various schools of thought had been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, and various theories were reflected at all levels of society."

"In order to achieve the cultural integration of the country, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty had to rectify these diverse ideas."

"A hundred schools of thought are contending, and various ideological concepts are intertwined and collided. Confucianism, Taoism, Legalism, Mohism and other schools of thought have their own opinions and argue endlessly. This situation is obviously detrimental to the stability and development of the country."

"In order to strengthen centralization and consolidate the country's dominance, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty had to adjust this situation of pluralistic thinking."

"Through the policy of "deposing hundreds of schools of thought and respecting Confucianism alone," Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty successfully promoted Confucianism throughout the country and achieved cultural integration and unification."

"Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty implemented the policy of "deposing hundreds of schools of thought and respecting Confucianism alone" out of many considerations, including historical background, the superiority of Confucianism, political purposes, cultural integration, etc."

"This policy has had a profound impact on the country's political, economic, and cultural development, and deserves our in-depth study and thinking."

"However, if we look at it from another perspective, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty's civil and military achievements certainly have their own progressive significance, but its negative impact on history cannot be ignored. The idea of ​​​​authoritarian "great unification" can certainly strengthen the relationship between ethnic groups. cohesion, but at the same time it also pushed authoritarian centralization to its peak.”

"Although the lifestyle of large families has indeed become the cornerstone of an ultra-stable society, it has also made politics ruled by men an unchanging pattern for two thousand years."

"As for the continuous wars and attacks during the era of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, it caused social unrest and the people's dire consequences. The pros and cons of it are difficult to describe."

"A despotic era must be a harsh era!"

"This sentence is also applicable to the era of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty."

"In fact, in a society governed by humans, the more accomplished a king is, the greater his destructive power is. Just as the Song Dynasty poet Lian Chisheng wrote in his poem: "Han Wu loves famous horses, and generals love famous horses. Set off to the west. Millions of people have been killed, and there are seventy people in charge. I only got it and sang songs to tell the gods. ""

It is certainly the norm for a monarch to "turn his hand to make clouds and turn his hand to make rain".

"Happy for great achievements and fond of martial arts and bloodshed" is just an ordinary story for them.

"When the emperor goes to war for his own selfish desires, the emperor's personal likes and dislikes are actually related to the wealth and lives of millions of people. The saying "when the emperor is angry, millions of corpses will be laid down, and blood will be shed for thousands of miles", it is the best protagonist of the emperor's personal actions."

"As a generation of British masters, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty was indeed one of the most accomplished emperors in ancient times, but the British masters were also mortals."

"From Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty's attitude towards the magical magic, we can see his paranoid and crazy mentality. From the occurrence of the "witchcraft disaster", we can even see his cruelty and moodiness in his later years. In a society governed by man, things like this often happen. A "half-great man" like Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty.

"Subject to physical, intellectual, age and many other limitations, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty's personal actions only exposed the common shortcomings of a society governed by man."

“The Confucian legal thought with Confucius as the founder is based on the legal system and ideology based on family, ethics as the center, and hierarchy as the basis.” ˆ ˆ ˆ “Advocates “rule by etiquette” and “rule by virtue”, that is, “People rule.”

"The essence of Confucian governance is: sages determine etiquette and law; uprightness of one's body determines one's conduct; law precedes kings and obeys human sentiments."

“Confucianism emphasizes the rule of etiquette in the relationship between etiquette and law, the rule of virtue in the relationship between morality and law, and the rule of man in the relationship between people and law.”

"Since the Han Dynasty "deposed hundreds of schools of thought and respected only Confucianism," it has become a pole of ideology. Later generations have only tinkered with it, and it has dominated the country for more than two thousand years."

"Feudal thought is essentially Confucian thought. It still affects the country's politics, economy, culture, education, life, and law in the real society. Things must be reversed when they are extreme. There is no longer a situation where a hundred schools of thought can contend, and there is no single ideological model. , the political and legal culture created—that is autocracy.”

“History has proven that rule by man and autocracy go hand in hand.”

"In order to establish a modern judicial concept, this kind of human rule of local environmental legal thought is incompatible with the rule of law concept that emphasizes the use of systems and rules to constrain people's behavior."

"Confucianism is the most important ideological obstacle to the establishment of modern judicial concepts, and that is the inherent deficiency of the concept of the rule of law."

"There must be some Confucians who don't like what I say, but as a modern person, isn't it true?"

"Actually, in terms of ideological system, Confucianism is not higher than Taoism. It is just that Confucius's realistic attitude of actively joining the world, accepting and adapting to the progress of history is more suitable for governing the country than other schools."

"At the same time, as Mr. Lin Yutang said, among all the schools of thought at that time, only Confucianism was closely integrated with the classics and historical knowledge of the time, and these ancient classics themselves were extremely precious, so Confucianism naturally became A model of education, it can be said that the subsequent popularity of Confucianism is inseparable from its dissemination through teaching materials."

"Exclusive respect for Confucianism" has both influences. The unification of thought has consolidated the national consciousness of the Chinese people and enhanced the centripetal force and cohesion of the Chinese people, thus greatly promoting China's political and national unity. "

"After two thousand years of development, our country can still maintain the basic territory of the Qin Emperor and the Han Dynasty when the Han Dynasty opened the border. No matter what form and how long the division occurs, the Chinese people have never forgotten the unity of the country, and this sense of unity almost comes from The requirements of Chinese nature.”

"No matter how far apart the country is, everyone takes reunification for granted, and everyone regards it as an honor to contribute to reunification. In the face of the great right and wrong of division and reunification, everyone has the pride of self-sacrifice and self-sacrifice."

"This sense of unity is in line with the idea of ​​"grand unification" established at the beginning, the ideological unity of the country for thousands of years, and the identity of the country and the Chinese nation formed under Confucian education."

"A civilization based on Confucianism is really like a broad and profound wise man, opening his mind with a smile and letting you toss in my arms. Anyway, everyone cannot avoid the psychological identification of the Chinese nation and people, so there is only a formal invasion, Split, but it is difficult to fundamentally shake the country."

"However, the negative impact of "deposing hundreds of schools of thought and respecting Confucianism alone" cannot be ignored."

"To put it simply, first of all, Confucianism's dominance of orthodox thought has inevitably dimmed the light of other schools of thought. Over time, some of the original unique ways of thinking have not only failed to flourish, but have even gradually been lost, which has greatly compressed the philosophical thinking space of the Chinese people."
