Research On The Recommendation System Of Jin Dynasty

Since the reform of the new system of Xizong Tianjuan and Hailing Zhenglong,the system of Jin Dynasty has changed from a vigorous system with strong Nvzhen characteristics to a Han system constructed by the Central Plains Dynasty.The selection of officials also refers to the selection system of the Central Plains Dynasty to a certain extent,and the implementation of the recommendation system is one of themRecommendation was also applied before Shizong Dynasty,but it did not form a regulation.Jin Shizong decided to split the political monopoly power of the Nvzhen vested interest group in order to strengthen the imperial power,eliminate the negative influence of the capital examination on talent selection and maintain the image of the emperor.During the reign of Zhang Zong,the system became more and more perfect,which laid the keynote of the recommendation system in the Jin Dynasty.In the period of Xuanzong and Aizong in the late Jin Dynasty,in view of the needs of the situation,the court had to adjust the relevant provisions of the recommendation system in order to seek better talents.Whether ancient or modern people,their evaluation of the Jin Dynasty recommendation system is not high.The reasons are found that the factors blocking the system include the manipulation of recommendation power by executives,officials'avoidance of suspicion of forming a party,joint and several liability system and the act of "shielding the virtuous".The recommendation system of Jin Dynasty can be divided into two categories:private recommendation and official recommendation.Private recommendation includes recommendation,annual recommendation,imperial recommendation and pioneering recommendation.Official recommendation includes recommendation from central,local and dispatching agencies.The purpose of many forms of recommendation is to select excellent talents.The Jin Dynasty formulated relevant regulations for both the sponsors and the respondents who participated in the recommendation,aiming at the limitation of the official qualities of the sponsors.However,in fact,not all the officials within the scope of this grade actively recommended,but the actual recommendation was controlled by the executives.In addition,there is a requirement of joint and several liability for the nominee;recommending an official to basically comply with the standards of talent,literary talent and moral conduct,and strictly verifying the nominee at different stages Provisions for the sponsor and the respondent are designed to ensure the quality of the recommendation and make the recommendation system run on a benign track.Although the system of recommendation in the Jin Dynasty was derived from the operation,it was a malpractice of asking for a private door,holding the party to engage in private affairs and fraud.However,it is undeniable that under the establishment and implementation of this selection system,and thanks to the dedication of some ministers to actively recommend talents for the public,the system has had a positive impact on the selection of talents and the stability of the situation in the court,which must be affirmed.
