The idea of "country" is a stable and orderly behavior expectation simplification mechanism in traditional Chinese society.According to the theory of social system,the existence and development of society originates from the diversity of human expectations and the possibility of "disappointment",that is,the complexity and occasionality of society.With the production of such complexity and occasionality,human behavior will gradually tend to realize a choice that can make their expectations come true.—— "Orderliness" comes into being,and "orderliness" produces new "expectations" and new "possibilities" as well as realizing expectations.Therefore,in the environment of continuous production of complexity,people will increasingly tend to "instinctively" look for a way to "simplify" the possibilities of social uncertainty and disappointment.The method does not have to come from one's own behavior experience.It should be simpler and more repeatable.That is to say,the choice of others is the basis of one's own choice.This is the choice structure that people produce when facing social complexity and occasionality-"choice of choice".When this structure is recognized by the third party outside most experience relationships,i.e."institutionalization",it becomes a "complexity simplification mechanism" that is "complied with" in most people and facing expectations of behavior.According to the theory of social system,"society" in the whole sense consists of different social subsystems,including but not limited to ideology,culture,art,law and religion.The differentiation and operation of each social subsystem follows the general logic of social development,which originates from the production of complexity and occasionality,and each of these subsystems follows the general logic of social development.The evolution of social subsystems is related to the interaction of other subsystems.It can be concluded that the differentiation and evolution of each social subsystem originates from the interaction between internal and external systems,and constantly produces new "complexity" and "occasionality".The observation of the thought of "country" also conforms to the general judgment of sociology.As an ideological system born in the soil of Chinese culture,the interaction of "time dimension","social dimension" and "factual dimension" makes it constantly produce the complexity of behavior expectation,and it also constantly needs to face the realization of "choice" in the interactive experience of environment.The functional requirements of simplification.In addition,the evolution of subsystems will not make the whole society lose its meaning of "independent existence".A stable and orderly simplification mechanism,or a state of order,whether religion,witchcraft,law or power,will face the challenge of new simplification mechanism brought about by the increasing complexity of the environment."Law" is the most effective choice structure discovered by human beings.Of course,the expression of law is diverse,and its functional expression is also diverse.Observing "Law" in time dimension is an effective way to understand the general types of social structure.The idea of "home and country" is the summary of Chinese people's observation and experience of society.It includes the emotional cognition of "people","home" and "country",as well as the behavior understanding in the process of communication with the environment.Firstly,individuals,countries and countries in traditional culture are not only descriptions of "natural" state,but also a summary of socialization.They point to "kinship" and "relationship",but also to "ethics".In Chinese culture,the "country" is not only a "field",but also a collection of social functions.? Secondly,the socialized "family state" not only satisfies the functions of "fertility" and "mutual assistance",but also represents the scope of survival activities and a carrier of emotional sustenance.Thirdly,in the ideological system formed around "family" and "relationship",filial piety and "Yi" highlight the spirit of "family state".Core-ethical standard,compatible with functional purpose-evolution.The idea of "country" is an evolving ideology,which has distinct national,regional and historical characteristics.The experience observation of the thought of "nation" can start from the ancient times of Chinese history,Xia,Shang and Zhou Dynasty.This is the period of transition from slavery to feudal society in China.It is also the beginning of traditional culture breaking away from "ghost and witchcraft" and entering the era of rational philosophy.Firstly,there are three main ideological tendencies in the myths and legends of Xia and Shang Dynasty,namely,the divine right of heaven,the succession of five elements and the promising action of human beings,which highlights the importance attached by Chinese culture to human beings and reality at the source.Zhou Dynasty is the formation period of China's ethical concept and the development period of patriarchal clan system.Social thought not only emphasizes the obedience to "heaven",but also embodies "heaven" as "ancestor" and "patriarchal clan",thus weakening the authority of "god" while emphasizing the power of "man";secondly,the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period is the "country" thought.In the birth period,the concept of "home and country" in the social elite thought has gained wider recognition along with the transmission of "aristocratic" culture to "civilian" culture.Human behavior has begun to form a choice structure with unique Chinese cultural characteristics under the interference of "home and country" thought.Confucianism is more independent with its attitude and belief-respect.Tian Pei De and non-litigation,which gave birth to and promoted the order of "etiquette".Thirdly,the order of "home country",which sprouted in Shang and Zhou dynasties and was born in the Spring and Autumn Period and Warring States Period,originated from an ideological system of "the unity of all schools of thought".The "reason" of "home country" is "virtue","benevolence" and "courtesy".It is a tacit acquiescence to habits,a pursuit of morality,and even a compliance with norms.After the great integration and development of the Han,Wei,Jin,Sui and Tang Dynasties,the thought of "the country" was finally shaped into a mature,inclusive and evolutionary normative system by Neo-Confucianists in the Song Dynasty.The normative structure of the thought of "country" is expressed as the expectation of general consistent behavior.Social system theory holds that the production of social complexity and occasionality will eventually lead to the differentiation of cognitive types,namely,cognitive expectation and normative expectation.This trend is to adapt to the evolution of society,but at the same time,it also promotes the growth of complexity.Therefore,the functional needs of "simplification" become the focus of social experience.The structuring of norms is to replace the occasional production in the process of personal experience with a choice.At the same time,it will produce a meaning transfer of "successful choice" among the experimenters,which strengthens the existing simplified structure and also creates the general feature of the identity transfer of meaning-norms.In the process of sociological observation of the thought of "family and country",this trend of generalization is expressed with the image of benevolence.It not only satisfies Luhman's functional judgment on the generalization mechanism of "role" and "program",but also shows the generalization ability of "transcending theory" in "personality" and "value".Of course,it is the uniqueness of traditional culture that makes it possible,and it is also a unique commentary on the ideological function of "home and country"."Inconsistency" refers to the natural conflict and exclusion between different mechanisms of assimilation,which is "inevitable" in Luhman's theory.Of course,it also appears in the process of the assimilation of the "family-state" thought,but this inconsistency did not cause the collapse of the expected structure.It was weakened in a unique way in the Chinese cultural environment,which is the "mean" and "ethical norm" contained in the "familystate" thought.The order of "country" is a stable and orderly evolutionary mechanism.The evolution of order is based on the general theory of social evolution.Luhman believes that the development of society depends on the production of complexity and occasionality.This production of course originates from the evolution of human physiological ability.However,after a certain degree of complexity has been achieved in society,the main production mechanism of complexity in society no longer originates from "nature".Instead,it comes from the experience of social interaction,so a complex production mechanism with more social attributes has become the goal of "evolution".Different simplification mechanisms will hold different attitudes when facing social complexity.Although the "disregard" mechanism of "religion" will also form a stable and orderly expectation structure,it "cannot" or "unintentionally" in the production of social complexity,and it will not be able to promote and promote social evolution.It is a simplified structure with "compatibility".It can achieve the same transmission of social complexity through "specialization" and "program differentiation",and realize the production of complexity and duality in the process of "compatibility" with different simplification mechanisms.The expectancy structure of traditional Chinese society is the thought of "family and country".It not only realizes the functional differentiation of society,realizes the specialization and professionalization of "etiquette and law norms",but also expresses the stability and orderliness of traditional Chinese society with its unique "inclusive" quality.The spirit of "family and country" from "thought" highlights China."People-oriented" in culture highlights "harmony among all",and highlights the unique evolutionary mechanism of China-"the order of family and country".
