Examples: the influence of traditional socio-political structure of Chinese culture

I. The emergence and establishment of the patriarchal system 1, due to the natural environment and the different lifestyles of the inhabitants of different parts of the world, the status of blood relations in the social life of the inhabitants and the form of expression are also very different. Mediterranean coastal countries earlier engaged in industrial and commercial trading activities at sea, the formation of a city-state society based on geographical and property relations. The Chinese people live in isolation, living in clusters, more retained the social organization of the blood family. 2, the patriarchal system is the blood relations of clan society in the new historical conditions evolved, produced in the late Shang dynasty. The main content includes the first-born son inheritance system, the feudal state system and the temple sacrifice system. 3, the founder of the Western Zhou patriarchal system is the Duke of Zhou. Second, the patriarchal system under the influence of traditional Chinese social structure features 1, the patriarchal system under the influence of traditional Chinese social structure features four: one is the continuation of the family world, a history of China, is a history of family domination; two is the system of the feudal state constantly; three is the family system is everlasting; four is the family and the state is the same. 2, the warring states period, some different from the western Zhou ritual system of new systems continue to produce, and has been quite mature, such as county system, bureaucracy, salary system, seal system, on the system, farming system. 3, qin shihuang unified china, the implementation of centralized power, abolish the feudal system, the county system, the implementation of the household qimin. 4, the patriarchal system has been y affected by the Chinese people's main reason is the small peasant natural economy lifestyle has been continued. 5, the essence of the patriarchal system is the politicization of the family system. 6, China's feudal era, rule and bind the people have four rights: power, divine right, husband's right and clan right. Clan power is evolved from the patriarchal society patriarchal system, that is, the regime is complementary, but also can play the regime can not play a special social role. After the Song dynasty, the expansion of clan power and the development of Song and Mingxiology patriarchal system is inseparable. 7, family and state isomorphism refers to the family, the family and the state in the organizational structure of the **** the same sex. Chinese traditional society family and state organization system are strict patriarchal system. Influenced by China's long-standing dominance of a small peasant economy with an underdeveloped commodity economy, the structure of the Chinese State has always had a deep imprint of the family structure. The organizational system and power configuration of the family and the state are both strictly patriarchal. 8, clan and patriarchal relations in China for a long time, resulting in the "family state" pattern. 9, Shang Yang formulated the law of guilt by association, the people according to five families in the army, ten families in the household registration system. Third, the authoritarian system and Chinese social and political structure 1, European politics and culture from the Mediterranean coastal countries, mainly in ancient Egypt, the two river basin and ancient Greece. 2, European feudal imperial autocracy has been subject to religious forces, religious forces have been restraining the imperial power. 3, China from the beginning of civilization, the ruler by force to make the clergy become its servants, formed the individual as the core of the power of the autocratic system. 4, China's monarchical dictatorship of the class base is the slave owners and landlords, rely on the economic base is a combination of small-scale agriculture and handicrafts natural economy, the rulers generally take on the industry and commerce and trade suppression attitude, heavy agriculture and suppression of commerce has become the basic state policy of successive rulers. 5, China's monarchical authoritarian system is characterized by four: one is to force as a precursor to control the religious forces, autocracy for a long time; Second, the economic foundation is solid, land state-owned and self-sufficient small peasant economy maintains the rule of the autocrat; Third, the monarchical authoritarian centralization to the extreme to the emperor and the prime minister as the head of the hundred officials **** with the decision-making mechanism is gradually replaced by the emperor's dictatorship; Fourth, the person is tightly controlled. 6, from the spring and autumn period, the county system as its external form of the monarchical bureaucracy, this new autocracy has continued until the end of feudal society. 7. The traditional Chinese socio-political structure, which was characterized by a strong patriarchal color and a highly developed monarchical authoritarianism, had three effects on Chinese culture: First, the patriarchal character of the social structure led to the formation of an ethical paradigm for Chinese culture. Its positive value is that it makes the Chinese nation more cohesive, emphasizes moral cultivation, and becomes a state of etiquette; its negative impact is that it makes the ethical teachings of the Three Principles and Five Principles, the "keep the reason and eliminate the desire" cultivation of the body and the xenophobic mentality and so on, obstacles to the healthy development of Chinese culture. Secondly, the authoritarian character of the Chinese social structure led to the formation of a political paradigm in Chinese culture. Its positive value is that it creates a holistic concept of the Chinese nation, the notion of the supremacy of the national interest, and a cultural identity in the national psyche; its negative value is that it makes the people of China have a serious obedience mentality, a superstitious belief in authority and power, and a lack of personal self-confidence. Thirdly, the combination of patriarchy and authoritarianism is politically manifested in the merging of Confucianism and law, and culturally reflected in the politicization of ethics and the ethicalization of politics, which is prominently manifested in the mentality of internal sainthood and external kingship, i.e., the ideals and pursuits of cultivating one's body, aligning one's family with one's country, and pacifying the world. IV. The Influence of Traditional Chinese Socio-Political Structure on Chinese Culture (1) The influence of traditional socio-political structure on Chinese culture: 1. The patriarchal character of the socio-political structure has led to the ethical paradigm of Chinese culture. The positive significance is that it makes the Chinese nation highly cohesive. The negative significance is the formation of Chinese society's deep-rooted shortcomings of human feelings over the law of the land, the so-called "the son is hidden for the father, the father is hidden for the son, and the straight is in the curve". 2. The authoritarian character of the social and political structure has led to the political paradigm of the Chinese culture. Its positive impact is to emphasize the concept of the Chinese nation as a whole and the supremacy of the national interest, creating a cultural identity in the national psyche. Its negative impact is that it has led to a serious mentality of obedience, an excessive superstitious belief in authority and power, the formation of an "official-oriented" phenomenon in Chinese society, and a sense of personal servility, which is the biggest obstacle to the realization of democratic politics in China. Under tight personal control, people can only live in a certain circle, and dealing with interpersonal and family relationships has become the main task in one's life. (ii) Negative effects of the traditional socio-political structure on Chinese culture: 1. Under the constraints and limitations of ethical politics, people were fixed within a certain name in their lifetime, and conformity was the requirement of society for everyone, so it was very easy to cultivate a slavish personality that was based on superiority, books, and relatives. 2. The monarchical authoritarian system lacked a mechanism of democracy. Therefore, the idea of "officialism" has always been a serious obstacle to the political, economic and cultural development of Chinese society. 3. "The Three Principles and the Five Virtues", "The Three Obediences and the Four Virtues", and "The Existence of the Divine Principle and the Destruction of the Divine Principle" are the most important principles of the Chinese society. "Three Principles and Five Rules", "Three Obediences and Four Virtues", and "Divine Principle, Extinguish Human Desire" and other feudal rituals and rites, which seriously restricted the development of human personality. The combination of patriarchy and authoritarianism was politically manifested in the merging of Confucianism and law, and culturally reflected in the politicization of ethics and the ethicization of politics, which was highlighted by the intellectuals' mentality of "inner sainthood and outer kingship" (cultivating one's moral character, aligning one's family with the family, ruling the country, and pacifying the world). The paradigm of ethical politicization and political ethicization of Chinese culture has acquired a tough theoretical structure from the contradictory unity of "the inner sage and the outer king", with the natural economy of the small peasant and the patriarchal and authoritarian socio-political structure as the solid foundation. The organic combination of these aspects formed a tight system that became an unbreakable fortress of traditional Chinese society, confining people in a narrow world. Therefore, living in such a Chinese political environment, on the one hand, the overall concept of the Chinese nation was strengthened, and the concept of the supremacy of the national interest and the interest of the monarch was reinforced, and "the rise and fall of the world is the responsibility of every man" became a feasible political slogan for everyone in the traditional society. On the other hand, the feudal yoke of "three principles and five rules", "three obediences and four virtues" and "the survival of heavenly justice and the extinction of human desires" made the emancipation of human personality greatly restricted and hindered. The narrow self-interested small peasant consciousness makes the Chinese people lack of enterprising consciousness, self-satisfaction and self-importance. These are the serious resistance to the political, economic and cultural development of Chinese society.
