Let s talk about the confusion of indoctrination

Mondo Education Updated on 2024-01-29

Indoctrination itself has historical progress significance, but it also has limitations. By now, indoctrination has become a product of power and capital, but it is not the simple education that people like. As a result, people are confused about indoctrination, believing that it is just what happens between people, and that some people are even difficult to educate. In fact, edification consists in creating an environment, and the creation of an environment is very doubtful in itself.

According to the Confucian interpretation, education refers to the institutionalization of government, the effectiveness of education, and the morality of the people. "Poems, Zhou Nan, Guan Ju Preface" wrote: "Beautify and educate, change customs. The "Book of Rites: Commentary on the Scriptures" records: "Therefore, the education of the rites is also small, and its suppression of evil is also invisible." "In ancient times, indoctrination referred to the moralization of politics and religion, and the education and probation. If you look at the big picture, you will understand the meaning of ancient education. Sages can be enlightened, leaving many rules to the world, and many good qualities of benevolence, righteousness, propriety, wisdom and faith. In feudal society, the emperor had to take the lead in propagating education, in addition to rectifying the officialdom atmosphere, that is, to do things for the common people. When there was a disaster in some places, the emperor had to mobilize materials for disaster relief, and he had to take the lead in praying to the gods to bless his subjects. Indoctrination itself has the role of propagating good social customs and stabilizing society. The premise is that the emperor must create a good political environment, and not make the officialdom dark, fight openly and secretly, or even lose power, and cannot be the master himself. The emperor is wise, and he can govern the world in an orderly manner;The emperor is mediocre, there is no good educational environment in the world, and chaos is inevitable.

The emperor's indoctrination was to propagate Confucian morality, use morality to influence customs and Xi, and ask people to abide by morality, but also to promote the tradition of etiquette, establish the class relationship of "the monarch and the courtier, father and son", let the people know what class they are, cut off their desire to rise to the ruling class, let them farm all day long, busy with their livelihoods, but do not let them read and write, and do not let them understand why they should promote the tradition of etiquette. The emperor's preaching of benevolence, righteousness and morality can at least dispel a lot of anger among the people and make people understand human morality;It is also necessary to promote the idea of contentment and happiness, and to propagate the meaning that "people's hearts are not enough to swallow elephants", and to ask people to keep to themselves and live their own small lives, without having to consider class differences and income differences. As a result, most of the common people were educated and did not resist. But the bottom line is that there is food and drink, and when there is no food and drink, you have to resist. And it is not difficult to maintain a situation where the common people have food and drink, as long as the ruling class does not desperately loot. However, in some dynasties, even if the common people have food and drink, it is not enough. ** Raising taxes layer by layer, making the people's resentment boiling, and catching up with the famine years, there will definitely be rebels. In other words, indoctrination was advocated by feudal rulers, but it was not the original Confucian morality, but the Confucian morality that had been transformed by the power system. If we really want to educate, we should open more schools and provide free education, so that the common people can read and write, and also let the common people have the opportunity to ascend to the top. If we persist in this kind of education for a long time, the common people will certainly live a good life.

It's just that feudal rule has lasted for more than 2,000 years, but it has never given the common people a high status, nor has it given them the right to universal education. It's just that the feudal rulers advocate education, but they don't benefit the people, no matter how you say it, it's a kind of **. After all, the elimination rate of the imperial examination is very high, and many scholars are often eliminated, so that many scholars cannot gain fame and can only take the exam again and again, or turn to the professions of Mr. Shuguan, staff literati, etc., and some even commit suicide. So, what exactly is the indoctrination advocated by the emperor?Is it possible to stabilize and rationalize the order with the reformed education, and to carry it out so that future generations can follow suit?

By now, indoctrination is not only a strategy pursued by the rulers, but also has the function of education and probation. Most of the schools have more equipment, and the environment has improved, but most of the students don't like to learn Xi, parents like it, and the teachers don't dare to care, and they have become Buddhist. Is it difficult to educate?Perhaps, the social environment has changed, capital has entered the education sector, which has contributed to the industrialization of education, and has created a certain educational environment. It is necessary to introduce the Western education model, to make friends between teachers and students, and even teachers can not criticize students, can not stimulate students' self-esteem, etc., and at the same time promote psychology, and announce what consequences some students with psychological problems will have through the news, so as to promote the development of the psychological counseling industry. Instead of being well educated, the students learned to control the teachers and parents, and they also knew what the manifestations of the problem were, and they said that they had psychological problems at every turn. Such indoctrination can only lead to an increase in cunning students. Many students do not have good grades, but they will spend money and enjoy themselves, but they will not be able to work, is it the result of capital education?

The power system has given the green light to capital, and the first time something happens, the responsibility should be put aside, and the parties should be held responsible, and the capitalists will not care about these things, but focus on investment, focus on the creation of the environment, and want people to learn to shop online, learn to consume, and learn to enjoy the new era, not to save money and not to spend, let alone to earn money without spending. As a result, under the education of capital and power, the business environment was formed, the relationship between government and business was established, and the seemingly open market was formed, which attracted people to the past, and openly sold many goods and services, making people dizzy and paying for them. Perhaps, the current education has completely changed the taste, which is the market-oriented guidance after letting people read and write, and it is also the consumer demand after making people be **. In this way, the confusion of education will always exist, provided that the original intention of education has been rewritten, even if the means are diverse and the effects are many, it still does not have a really good effect, and it does not have a good impact on the benign development of human nature, which really confuses people.
