The Influence of Shang Yang s Five-ignorance Policy on Politics, Thought and Culture in Qin and Han Dynasties;
Shang Yang's idea of ignorance is a political proposition put forward by Shang Yang in the specific historical background of the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period. It is the need for the emerging landlord class to establish a unified feudal autocratic centralization. Like the historical event of Shang Yang's political reform, it had a great and far-reaching influence not only on the later Qin State, but also on the whole feudal society in China, especially on politics, ideology and culture in the Qin and Han Dynasties.
After Shang Yang, the thought of rule of law against fools was further developed by Han Feizi and completely became the guiding ideology of Qin. After the Qin Dynasty unified China, a series of measures were taken to strengthen centralization, which deeply left the brand of Shang Yang's foolish ideas. The promulgation of the "Book Carrying Order" and the prohibition of private school advocated Shang Yang's "one word, one teaching".
