war was dominated by cold weapons . It was the size of the army that was important . Mozi believed that the emperor ' s resort to war for impossible compensation would bring great losses , and used Fu Chai as an example to demonstrate the harm of war . On the basis of his father ' s inheritance , Fu Chai attacked the state of Qi in the north and defeated the army of Qi : " The nine states of barbarians are bound to serve the state of Qi ". However , he did not show kindness to the people after the withdrawal of his troops , which led to their rebellion and dissension . After that , Gou Jian retaliated and the State of Wu was destroyed . Fuchai became strong by conquest and was destroyed by conquest .

( Johan Galtung 2005 , 9 )" If conflict is to be avoided , it is important to emphasize the role of a joint new norm in which parties transcend national and religious boundaries to engage in peaceful dialogue : diagnosis , prognosis and therapy together .

Mozi put forward the idea of " universal love ", that is , people should live in peace with each other , love each other without difference , love each other and benefit each other , and take the thousands of laborious people as the object of love . He proposed that people replace " self-love " with " universal love ". In this way , the chaos and disasters can be eliminated , and the world will be peaceful and prosperous . In addition , Mozi affirmed that the will of survival and reproduction are in the nature of human beings , and framed human nature as basic needs such as food , clothing , shelter , transportation and childbearing , but denied any desire beyond this scope to benefit oneself at the expense of others . Mozi believed that whether people ' s basic survival
