Question

What is the difference between legalism and daoism?

Answer 1

Daoists believe that natural order is superior to social order, and also that a universal force guides all things.  they also think all humans should live simply and in harmony with nature. Legalists believe that a powerful and efficent government is the key to social order, an that punishments are needed to keep social order. people who do good will be rewarded, and those who dont get punished. also, thinkers and ideas should only be controlled by only the government.
