Waiting for an Interview Yi Ming was born in the Ming and Qing Dynasties. It is an enlightening masterpiece that criticizes absolute monarchy and calls for democracy.
The Record of Ming Yi to Be Visited was written in A.D. 1663, and Ming Yi is an Oracle in the Book of Changes. Its slogan is: "Ming Yi spreads his wings and flies, and a gentleman will not eat for three days. The master has something to say when people are gone. " The so-called "Ming Yi" refers to a wise man in trouble. "To be visited", waiting for future generations to interview and adopt. The characters in Ming Yi and Dai Lu are characterized by a sharp criticism of the feudal status quo, an ideal in Xia, Shang and Zhou Dynasties and a transformation of ancient times.
There are 2 1 newspapers waiting for interviews in Ming Yi. The original gentleman criticizes that people who are kings in real society "regard my private interests as the great public in the world", which is really "the great harm in the world". The original minister pointed out that the responsibility of the minister is "to be the world, not the king; For the people, not for a surname. " The "original law" criticized the laws of feudal countries as "the law of one family, not the law of the world". Xue Ji advocates expanding the social function of the school to make it have the function of deliberation and participation in politics, saying: "What the son of heaven does is not necessarily right, what the son of heaven does is not necessarily wrong, and the son of heaven does not dare to be right and wrong, but what is public is the right and wrong in the school." "The things that govern the world must come from the school, and then prepare the meaning of the school." The future school envisioned by Huang Zongxi is similar to the public opinion center and parliamentary institutions in modern society.
Although Huang Zongxi did not fundamentally deny the establishment of monarch and minister, he advocated that the monarch should be open to the constitutional system, strengthen the equality factor, and expand the social supervision over the rulers, which has the idea of modern democratic politics. This idea is not influenced by western civilization, but developed from China's traditional culture, so it is more valuable. This book was banned by the rulers of the Qing Dynasty, and it was not rediscovered until the end of the Qing Dynasty, and it was valued and praised by Tan Sitong, Liang Qichao and others.
