Selecting political elites from across the country has not been easy since ancient times.
Why was China's civil service system established earlier?
Recently, the high-end dialogue program "Cultural Relativity" invited Chinese and foreign scholars to discuss the topic of social governance. Zhu Suli, a professor at Peking University Law School, said that Qin Shihuang unified the text, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty dismissed a hundred schools of thought, and only respected Confucianism, with "The Analects of Confucius" as the basic textbook.
This enables readers from all over the world to have a common text and unified examination standards.
The higher social status of officials also encouraged small peasant families to nurture their children into official careers.
In addition, there is also a social consensus behind this, that is, "the princes and generals have a kind of kindness", and the heroes do not ask about their origins.
It is precisely because of the aristocracy in Western society that the civil service system was not established earlier.
"Cultural Relativity", a large-scale academic dialogue between the East and the West, will be broadcast in the near future.
