The Censorate was a high-level supervisory agency in Imperial China, first established during the Qin dynasty (221–207 BC).[1]
The Censorate was a highly effective agency during the Mongol-led Yuan dynasty (1271–1368). During the Ming dynasty (1368–1644), the Censorate was a branch of the centralized bureaucracy, paralleling the Six Ministries and the five Chief Military Commissions, and was directly responsible to the emperor.[2] The investigating censors were "the eyes and ears" of the emperor and checked administrators at each level to prevent corruption and malfeasance, a common feature of that period. Popular stories told of righteous censors revealing corruption as well as censors who accepted bribes. Generally speaking, they were feared and disliked, and had to move around constantly to perform their duties.
Internal structure
The Censorate was divided into three branches (Шаблон:Lang).
- The Palace Branch (Шаблон:Lang) was responsible for monitoring the behavior of officials during audiences. It was staffed by in-palace enquiry censors (Шаблон:Lang).
- The Admonishment Branch (Шаблон:Lang) was responsible for monitoring the behavior of the emperor, to ensure that he did not make mistakes and remind him of his duties. It was staffed by enquiry censors (Шаблон:Lang).
- The Detection Branch (Шаблон:Lang) was responsible for monitoring the behavior of local officials. Monitor censors (Шаблон:Lang) would tour the country in circuits to ensure the proper discharge of the functions of government and good performance of local officials.
