At the end of feudal society, it hindered the budding development of emerging capitalist relations of production, the development of social productive forces and the progress of China society.
Authoritarian centralization has strengthened control over the people and affected the free and vivid development of politics, economy and culture. This system often depends on the monarch's personal political quality, because the emperor's personal factors have a great influence on the political situation, and various contradictions and struggles within the ruling group (eunuchs monopolize power, cronyism, consorts interfere in politics, etc.). ) can be said to be a by-product of authoritarian centralization. Its negative effects became more and more serious in the late feudal society, especially after the Ming and Qing Dynasties, which hindered the development of capitalism and social change, imprisoned people's thoughts and caused the stagnation of productive forces. This is also an important political reason for China's long-term stagnation in feudal society.
