Confucianism is a philosophical and ethical system developed by the ancient Chinese philosopher Confucius (also known as Kong Fu Zi.) Confucianism urges people to uphold the traditions and customs of the past. It stresses virtues, or li, such as respect, loyalty, honesty, hard work, politeness, and generosity. Confucius believed that if these virtues were followed, society would exist in harmony. He also believed that relationships and respect played a large role in social harmony. Filial piety is ranked among the greatest of virtues, and it entails that a child should repay kindness and respect to his/her parents, elders, and ancestors. The following five relationships extend from this virtue and are viewed as the “code of conduct” of Confucianism: 1) ruler and subject; 2) parent and child; 3) husband and wife; 4) elder sibling and younger sibling; and 5) friend and friend. With the exception of the fifth relationship, there is always one member who is super]]> Fri, 04 Jan 2008 16:53:20 +0000 mod http://msward.pbwiki.com/China email.hidden@example.com (estherc) estherc edited China Philosophies:

The Red Guard was a group of enthusiastic, politically active militant school, middle school, and college students used by Mao to shock and criticize the bourgeois who “needed” re-educating . The millions of people this group was made up of wore red armbands to show that they were “enforcing Mao’s cult of personality” ( Cultural Revolution).They engaged in activities such as book burnings, mass relocations, and as time went on, torture became a common form of punishment that the Red Guard applied. The Red Guard was eventually dispersed by Mao on account of Red Guard factionalism.

Having been founded by a peasant who was known as Hongwu Emperor, the Ming Dynasty lasted from 1368-1644 A.D.Hongwu led the revolt against the Mongols and the Yuan Dynasty (Ming Dynasty).He also moved the capital from Nanjing to Beijing.Hongwu, having been a peasant, created laws that improved peasant life.He kept the land taxes low and made sure that the granaries were kept stocked to guard against famine.He also maintained dikes (waterways, dams, etc.) on the Yellow and Yangtze River.Hongwu did not push trade forward, but rather encouraged the creation of self-supporting communities.In a typical Confucian viewpoint, he felt that agriculture should be the country's source of wealth and that trade was low (Ming Dynasty).Hongwu discarded the belief that military was inferior and made a militant class that was ranked higher than any civil servant.Having this militant class was important because the threat of the Mongols, even having defeated them before, was still high.Culture flour]]> Fri, 04 Jan 2008 05:36:04 +0000 mod http://msward.pbwiki.com/China.1199442753 email.hidden@example.com (msward) msward removed China.1199442753]]> Fri, 04 Jan 2008 05:32:33 +0000 del http://msward.pbwiki.com/China.1199442749 email.hidden@example.com (msward) msward removed China.1199442749]]> Fri, 04 Jan 2008 05:32:29 +0000 del http://msward.pbwiki.com/China.1199442727 email.hidden@example.com (msward) msward removed China.1199442727]]> Fri, 04 Jan 2008 05:32:07 +0000 del http://msward.pbwiki.com/China email.hidden@example.com (msward) msward edited China Add your image here
