The Comparison Research Of Mozi's And HanFei's Political Thoughts

Mozi and Han Fei were born in the Spring and Autumn and the Warring States Period , in order to solve society's chaos and realize social order restoration and reconstruction, they advanced respective theory. By this, although they belong to different schools of thought, but the political and ideological aspects are comparable to the content.This article is divided three chapters mainly on Mozi's and Han Fei's political thoughts comparison. The first chapter describe Mozi "shangtong" thought and Han Fei's inheriting as well as the display to Mozi's thought. Mozi took "a society of love without distinction but of mutual benefit "as his ideal, In order to realize this ideal, Mozi insisted on the "Shangtong" ,and put forward to the ideal of "shang zhi suo shi,bi yi shi zhi;shang zhi suo fei,bi yi fei zhi"and "shang tong er buxiabi" ,so as to unify the world person's opinion. The "Shangtong" is the absolute monarchy in essence , which imperceptibly caused his thought to tend to the side of autocracy. But Hanfei treated it as the starting point and the home to return to that the monarchial power is super. In the second chapter , I elaborate Mozi's thought of "Shangxian" and the enlightenment of "Dezhi" as well as Han Fei's developing the good and discard the bad as to Mozi's "Shangxian" thought and the denial to the theory about ruling a nation by morality. Mozi's thought of "Shangxian" has thoroughly broken the clan blood relationship boundary and Has established the idea of "Serves as an official cannot forever the riches and honor, the populace not be able forever to be lowly". Although he has something in common with Mozi in breaking through the clanlaw hereditary system, Hanfei did not esteem the talented person like Mozi. Hanfei abandoned Mozi's thought that selecting the talented person is more important than paying attention to the personal character, on the countary, he stressed the talented person's ability. He believed that, in extremely the world, the ruler must use extremely the talent, and don't make excessive demands to the talented person in morality. Whoever can make the contribution to helping the country to be richer is the ideal talented person for Hanfei. Chapterâ…¢of the study is about the means by which Mozi achieved"Shangtong", Not only did .Hanfei act it further, but also he raised a more comprehensive method of the potential combination of the rule. Mozi and Hanfei all regarded reward and punishment as an important means to govern the country ,and the difference is that Mozi should be appropriate penalty advocates, and that Hanfei asked petty misdemeanours, and then meet to criminal punishment. In addition, Mozi had the thought of even sit informants Shangyang put even sit institutionalize, Hanfei learned Mozi informants even sit thinking indirectly through Shangyang, and theoretically did further play. To strengthen centralized absolute monarchy, he is plotting and scheming. Generally believed that Mozi is a thinker of advocating fraternity civilians, Han Fei is the remnant of the old noble, by comparison, their political ideology to a number of things in common, so that we can understand the thinking of development of the Pre-Qin scholars inherent related knowledge.
