Confucianism and Legalism are both influential philosophical systems that emerged in ancient China, emphasizing the importance of social order and governance. They share a common goal of maintaining stability in society, but they differ fundamentally in their approaches: Confucianism advocates for moral integrity, ethical behavior, and the cultivation of virtue in leaders, while Legalism focuses on strict laws, harsh punishments, and centralized control to enforce order. Both philosophies reflect the importance of hierarchy and authority in Chinese society, though they propose different means to achieve societal harmony.

It started out as legalism, then it swayed to Confucianism.
Legalism (Hundred Schools of Thought) began in China, in the fifth century BCE, about the same time as Confucianism and Daoism (or Taoism). Coincidentally, this was the same period as the flowering of new religious and philosophical ideas in the Near East and Greece. == == == ==
Legalism was far different in its ideals and approach. Like Daoism, Legalism did not have one founder but several who shared similar ideas of which Han Feizi and Shangzi are well known. While Confucianism tried to gain total harmony with social order and Daoism searched for the same result in nature, Legalists believed that a strong political structure was the answer.
Legalism is a Chinese philosophy that emphasizes strict adherence to laws and regulations, often using harsh punishments to enforce order and control. Confucianism, on the other hand, focuses on ethical behavior, moral development, and the cultivation of virtues such as benevolence, filial piety, and propriety. While Legalism prioritizes the role of the state in maintaining social order, Confucianism emphasizes personal and societal harmony through virtuous conduct and relationships.
