Overview

Overview

While the Chinese nation is merely a political concept, it has formed a great national spirit with patriotism at its core. Although the Chinese nation is only a political concept and political propaganda, it is not a nation in anthropological sociology. However, the history of the Chinese people around the world who have been united under the umbrella of the "Chinese nation" is one that can be compared to that of the earth and sky, the sun and the moon! This spirit is like Mount Taishan, the Great Wall generally magnificent and majestic in the east of the world!

Due to the rise of globalization, the world has gradually become a global village. The Chinese people have been meeting with other peoples, especially the Western peoples, and there have been conflicts as well as intermingling. This is manifested in many aspects, such as life, thought and language. It is at this time of collision between Chinese and Western peoples that many questions are coming to the fore: Is the Chinese national spirit superior? Was it to be assimilated into the Western national spirit? There are different answers to this question, mainly from the so-called conservatives and westernizers. But the real way to solve the problem is not an either/or choice, but a deep reflection on the nature of the Chinese national spirit itself.

The nation is a historical popular concept. Therefore, the nation cannot be narrowly understood as natural, as defined by "earth" and "blood," as they say. Rather, it must be understood broadly as cultural, which is to say that a people is fundamentally molded by the mind and the spirit. It is in this sense that a nation is manifested in its national spirit national spirit "focuses on promoting", "focuses on cultivating", but in the process of promoting and cultivating the national spirit, in particular, we must deal with the relationship between inheritance and innovation. Inheritance is the prerequisite, innovation is the fundamental, is to promote and cultivate the national spirit of eternal power. As the spiritual pillar of a nation, the inheritance of history is far from enough. Only innovation can develop; only innovation can be immortalized. History does not stop, innovation should not stop, the national spirit will not end. The spirit of the Chinese nation is the spirit of advancing with the times, the unity of historicity and epochalism, the unity of inheritance and innovation. It is always developing and advancing. At every important historical juncture of China's revolution, construction and reform, a new national spirit is birthed.

It is this national spirit that glitters with the light of the times that has created a large number of outstanding people with advanced thinking and tenacious spirit of struggle. They have been striving for the revitalization of China, promoting the development of history and national progress, and profoundly changing the face of the times. They have carried the distinctive spirit of the times, and lifted up the strong spine of the nation. This is the spirit and strength of a nation.
