What are the differences in the ideas of governing the country during the Qin, early Han and Han Wu

The main differences in the statecraft of the Qin and early Han dynasties and the period of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty are as follows:

1.The Qin Dynasty took Legalism as the ideology of governance, emphasized "advocating violence", and did not have a soft theory in the system and foreign policy, and used violent means to suppress those who did not obey the law. The Qin Dynasty pursued a strict legal order, where individuals did not need to have ideas and values, but only obeyed the law.

2.At the beginning of the Han Dynasty, Confucianism was the mainstay, but Legalism was not completely abandoned. During this period, the Han Dynasty placed more emphasis on benevolence, recuperation, and a governance attitude of combining leniency and severity.

In the governance of the early Han Dynasty, the existence of individualized ideological forms was allowed, and at the same time, some harsh laws of the Qin Dynasty were abolished.

3.During the reign of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, although the policy of "deposing the hundred schools of thought and respecting Confucianism alone" was implemented on the surface, in fact, Legalism still dominated internally. Emperor Wu used Confucian ideas to compete for power, but he did not really abandon the Legalist idea of governing the country.

On the whole, the governing thought of the Qin Dynasty was dominated by Legalism, and the governing thought of the early Han Dynasty was dominated by Confucianism, but in the period of Emperor Wu, it was actually Legalism and Confucianism used together.

Qin ruled the country with Legalism, and Han ruled with Confucianism; Qin stirred up public resentment with violence, and Han Yiren recuperated; Qin is strict, Han is wide; Han is the opposite of Qin, but has a 400-year foundation.

Emperor Wu period: Yang, Confucianism and Yin law. It seems to be to overthrow Confucianism, but in fact, it is still the rule of Legalism. (Emperor Wu was simply using Confucianism to seize power.) The real exclusive Confucianism was during the reign of Emperor Xuan of the Han Dynasty. ）

Qin: rule of law, the use of the first centralized system (three metric system, county system); Unified writing, unified currency, unified weights and measures, cars and tracks to build roads, dig spiritual canals, and build the Great Wall.

Western Han Dynasty: Implement a policy of recuperation and recuperation.

Emperor. Tui En Decree (proposed by the Lord Father), the Assassination History System; Depose the hundred schools of thought and respect Confucianism alone (Dong Zhongshu.

proposed); Salt and iron monopoly.

The Qin king unified the currency to measure the language, unified the six countries, established the ** regime, implemented the county system, and implemented the burning of books and Confucianism.

Politically: Qin Shi Huang called the emperor, set up three dukes (Prime Minister Taiwei Yushi Dafu), placed counties and counties, and established a centralized official system from ** to the locality; Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty strengthened the centralization of power, weakened the power of the kingdom, and issued the Tui'en Decree; set up "China and North Korea" to limit the power of the prime minister; set up a history of assassination and strengthen local supervision; Appoint cool officials and crack down on the strong.

Ideologically: Qin Shi Huang burned books and pit Confucianism; Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty adopted Dong Zhongshu's suggestion to "depose the Confucianism of the Hundred Schools of Thought" and determined the dominant position of Confucianism in the Hundred Schools of Learning.

Cultural: Qin Shi Huang unified the script; Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty established Taixue.

Military aspect: In order to maintain the unity and stability of the country's territory, Qin Shi Huang attacked the Xiongnu in the north to build the Great Wall, and attacked the Yue people in the south to build the Ling Canal to unify the road; Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty attacked the Xiongnu in the north to consolidate the border defense. In order to weaken the power of the Xiongnu, Zhang Qian was sent twice to the Western Regions.

Troops were used against Baiyue, Southwest Yi, Xiqiang, Western Regions and other places, and the pacificated areas were set up as counties to rule, expanding the territory of the Central Plains Dynasty.

Economic: Qin Shi Huang unified weights and measures and unified currency system; Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty reformed the currency system and unified the minting of new five-baht coins; salt and iron official camp; Count the recklessness; Formulate an economic policy of equalization and equalization.

At the beginning of the Western Han Dynasty and the period of unification of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, the national strength was very different. Specifically, at the beginning of the Western Han Dynasty, the national strength was relatively weak, mainly in the following aspects:

1.At the beginning of its establishment, there was a shortage of talents in politics, ethnic, military and other aspects, the political situation was unstable, and wars were continuous;

2.The economic situation was relatively difficult, and in the Han Dynasty, financial constraints and contradictions were complicated;

3.There are serious local divisions and tribal uprisings in the country, which lead to political instability.

With the implementation of a large-scale military expansion policy by Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, the national power began to gradually become stronger. It is mainly manifested in the following aspects:

1.The implementation of the policy of "combining vertical and horizontal" successively eliminated the Xiongnu, Nanyue and other ethnic groups that threatened the Han Dynasty, and expanded the territory;

2.Strengthen the centralization of power, implement the county system and the state pastoral system, and strengthen the control and governance capacity of the local government;

3.build water conservancy, improve agricultural production technology, and improve the country's economic strength and grain production capacity;

4.We should set up Taixue, strengthen education, train a large number of talents, and raise the level of national culture and science and technology.

Therefore, the national strength of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty during the period of great unification was much greater than that at the beginning of the Western Han Dynasty, mainly due to the strengthening of centralization and the implementation of a number of beneficial reform policies. These measures played a crucial role in the prosperity of the Han dynasty in the centuries that followed.

The Qin Legalists thought that Qin II died, and the Han Dynasty deposed the hundred schools of thought and respected Confucianism, which established the dominance of Confucianism in China.
