Day One: Tuesday, May 12, 2015 Class: In China from ancient times until the 20 th century, the people applied their religious philosophies to their governments through the concept of the Mandate of Heaven. This was established by the Zhou Dynasty in 1045 BC to justify the overthrowing of the previous government. A mandate is a command. So the Zhou said that the deities in heaven ordered the Zhou to overthrow the previous Shang ruler. According to the Mandate of Heaven, the king and all later emperors ruled by divine right. Their power came from the gods. In time, this theory was expanded. Rulers did not always act in the best interest of the people, so the Mandate of Heaven gave the people the right to rebel and overthrow the corrupt and ineffective ruler. The result was the dynastic cycle that allowed the rise, rule, and then fall of a dynasty over a number of years. And the Mandate of Heaven became the basis for the way the Chinese changed their rulers. This is illustrated in the following flowcharts. So when the Europeans came to China under imperialism and exerted control over the current ineffective Chinese emperor, the Mandate of Heaven came into play once again.
