Abstract:
Freedom is the essential characteristic of the movement of contention of different schools in the period of Warring Kingdoms. However, the contention of different schools, which occurred in form of free writing, free lecturing, free criticism and free migration, became the historical pinnacle. In order to carry forward traditional culture of our nation, attention should be paid to reestablishing the free spirit in the days of the different contending schools and constructing an innovative-style society by means of ideological innovation rather than mending the old guides and virtues and the hierarchical order.
