【內(nèi)容】
The tradition of linking celestial phenomena with secular political behavior has been a longstanding practice in human civilization that has often been viewed as a superstitious obstacle to modern development. We challenge this view by demonstrating how this tradition enhances state capacity and reduces social conflicts. Using the Bayesian persuasion approach, we construct a model of political cosmology and test it in the context of the doctrine of Heaven-Mankind Interaction in Imperial China. The results show increased tax cuts and reduced farmer rebellions, highlighting the socio-economic significance of Confucian doctrine and echoing Plato's ''noble lie'' concept.
