Because the latent function of assimilation, culture is applied as ideology in anycommunity. As the main part of Chinese traditional idea and culture, Confucianism, nota pure ethical moral principle system only, became the trunk stream ideology ofChinese autocratic monarchy community for its outstanding function in such respect,and so, had the supreme hegemony. The particular theory character and basic structurehad shaped in Axial Period of Huaxia-China culture."Sagely within and kingly without",as the most ultimately pursues of the Confucian school, was really commence with theelucidate each other of Kong Zi's "Kindheartedness"and"Rite". Meng Zi's"WangZheng"and Xun Qing's "Rite System" inherited Kong Zi's idea's one sectionrespectively. As to the Confucian school of Pre-Qin days,"sagely within and kinglywithout"had been a pursue and orientation of ontology. In many case, the cause of the debate is that we employ the same language ondifferent semantic meanings, but not the divergence of viewpoints and concepts. Inorder to avert the misunderstanding for the difference of visual angles, I collated andstipulated all concepts in this article. The most significant is to limit and fix the thenature of Qin and Han community and illustrate the term of"Ideology". After Kong Zi, although Confucianism of Pre-Qin has a dividing line of"Temperament Confucianism"and"Political Confucianism","sacred monarch"idealis the focus of all the Confucian schools. As a result of such point,"Rite"has been oneof core substances of the Confucian school's idea. The transition of the nature fromethical moral principles to ideology, spreading the capacity of Confucianism. And so,Confucianism owned such community capacities as the Value Orientation,Ideology,Statue Norm and State Religion, etc. Although there are debates on"Confucianism", itis fact that Confucianism have some of"common surability"natures of religion. Just onthis point , We say that the Confucianism from Pre-Qin Days to Han Dynasty hadowned dual capacities of"State religion"and"State ideology".Qin and Han Dynasty's Confucianism completed its ideologyization course bymeans of two-way requesting of knowledge against power. That is, Confucianismdemonstrated the rationality of worldly autocratic monarchy with information, and theautocratic monarchy endowed with the lawful position with state status. During thecourse , it is very important that Dong Zhongshu proposed to"Ban from hundredphilosophers, venerate Confucianism". Confucianism formed an alliance by marriageagainst autocratic monarchy, which caused the Confucianism ideologyization andworldly state rationalization head for the concrete operation direction. Tying upindispensability was only the necessary compromises reciprocally. Thus, the steel andover-steady shelf of Chinese community had shaped. After that, the Confucianism andautocratic monarchy headed for their directions between the forces of bound and rely oneach other. The effect of Confucianism ideologyization from Pre-Qin Days to Han Dynasty onChinese monarchy age was many-sided. The most significant effect is the unity ofpolitics ,ethics,morality. After ideologyization, the Confucian school idea had been anthinking means of the Chinese nation, the view of development of "the evolution ofmankind's culture between extrinsic shape and intrinsic essence"in Confucianism hadan far-reaching effect on traditional Chinese view on history. Moral principles politicscaused directly an over-steady community pattern of home state nation, and made itbecome the fundamental feature of traditional Chinese community composition. Although Chinese intellectuals under the contemporary tongue situation remain theclinging feeling to traditional Confucianism as before, it is very hard to become Chinese"State religion"or"State ideology"again for Confucianism for the predicament oftheory and actual. What features the new"Culture China"shall show to the world?Howtradition heads for contemporary age ? As current times goes, " the SyntheticInnovation...
