Ancient China- China’s Ancient Philosophies

There were 3 main philosophies in the ancient China. The first one was the Legalism then the Confucianism and at the last the Daoism. The legalism suggested that society must be controlled by the power, the government, through punishments and laws.

The Confucianism was made to organize the society by making some new rules in people home´s, because Confucius thought that the family was the basis of the society, and if the families obey the society will. Some of that rules were that, wifes obey their husbands, and that little brothers had to obey the big ones, that act was called filial piety.

The Daoism, believes that people could be what they want to be, if they don’t disorder the community and the force that maintains the “world” in harmony (Ying and Yang). The problem of humans is that they don’t believe in a WAY that was the force that maintains the nature in order.
