The book of the ruler of Shan State is one of the most significant monuments of social and political thought in ancient China. It describes the teachings of Shang Yang (IV century BC), the founder of the legitimist school, which defended a despotic form of government. The teachings of Shang Yang, adopted by Confucians from the third century BC to the third century AD, contributed to the transformation of Confucianism into a state ideology and had a huge impact on the further development of legislation and legal theories not only in China, but in many countries of the Far East.
