The Relationship between Mohism and Traditional Culture

3. Legalists, mainly represented by Han Feizi, advocate opposing the ritual system and emphasizing the role of law. They believe that all people have the nature of "pursuing advantages and avoiding disadvantages", oppose conservative retro thinking and advocate reform.

4. Mohism, represented by Mozi, advocates universal love, non-aggression, Shang Xian, Shang Tong, ambition, non-fate, non-happiness and frugal burial.
