Confucianism and China's traditional political philosophy and the basic ideas of Confucian politics

Confucianism is a school in pre-Qin hundred schools of thought, and its founder is Confucius. After the death of Confucius, according to Han Feizi, Confucianism was divided into eight schools. Among them, Confucianism, Confucianism in the time of being happy (Liang Qichao suspected that he was a disciple of being happy and being pure) and Confucianism in the Qing Dynasty by Sun Xun had great influence on later generations. The discussion in this section is mainly based on the above three theories.

China's ancient politics has no modern significance. Confucianism's basic thoughts on politics are mainly contained in Confucian philosophers' exposition of humanities, society and state issues. The main spirit includes: politics is the form to realize human nature; Governing the country cannot deviate from the principle of benevolence and righteousness; Politics is essentially the way to be a man. The cultivation of rulers is the basis of politics; The most practical way to correct it is to regulate one's audio-visual, words and deeds with courtesy and practice filial piety in daily life. Governing the country is based on governing the people, and governing the law is the purpose; If the law does not cure chaos, it will be treated if it is obtained, and it will be chaotic if it is lost; Saints should be kings, and saints should be kings; Being a gentleman is the guarantee to realize human politics. People are the foundation of the country; Jun, people and God, people first; Man grasps God's will; Those who win the hearts of the people win the world, and those who lose the hearts of the people lose the world; A man can carry a boat or capsize it. The country should be managed by scholars who seek the Tao without seeking food; Adults who achieve moral personality should not only be in charge of the rule of the world, but also be teachers, honest and correct, and ignore your inner right and wrong; A monarch, a minister, a father, a son, a son, but the relationship between the monarch and the minister should be mutual respect.
