The First Unified China
Manage episode 285384235 series 2431584
On today’s episode we discuss the first imperial dynasty of ancient China, the Qin Dynasty.
It was founded by Shi Huangdi who operated according to the precepts of Legalism, a political philosophy that called for a strong central government and authoritarian state control. We explore how Shi Huangdi, or Emperor Qin, used Machiavellian principles to consolidate power. We also ask the question – how does legalist philosophy inspire the actions of Xi Jinping.
