Real-Time Confucianism - how Japan lost virtue and slid into the lost decadeswataylorsli
2,500 years ago, the Chinese sage Confucius observed that all governments follow a cycle: from unity, through prosperity to stagnation, then to collapse and anarchy.
He taught that when government officials sought per-sonal power or wealth instead of taking care of the people, society lost the “Mandate of Heaven” and fell apart.
By “Mandate of Heaven,” Confucius meant that God Himself had directed how society should work. Chinese history shows 15 or 20 collapses when government lost virtue and the country broke apart in civil war, but whenever the Chinese followed Confucius’ rules, Chinese society worked well.
After World War II, the Japanese used Confucian virtue to cooperate to rebuild their destroyed nation. Once they became wealthy, however, selfishness and greed destroyed their virtue and they slid into the "Lost decades."
