How to develop China's traditional culture internationally?

In the post-cold war era, the wave of globalization presents a strong development momentum, impacting and impacting all aspects of human social life. However, just as we look at globalization and feel the global concept and global consciousness that show human nature, the national culture that embodies national differences and uniqueness has once again formed a worldwide wave, and the culture with national characteristics and cultural convergence go hand in hand, which has become the main feature of cultural exchanges in the world today. In this case, the word "cultural globalization" appears constantly. Cultural globalization, also known as cultural McDonald's, refers to a unified cultural connotation that spreads to every corner of the world like McDonald's. Many people think that cultural globalization is an inevitable trend of historical development, and then think that they should abandon their own cultural values and converge to western cultural values.

The process of globalization is dominated by western countries, which further embodies western values. Globalization, accompanied by the expansion of capitalist mode of production, is developing with positive expansion under the impetus of scientific and technological revolution and market economy. Cultural globalization is bound to be more integrated with western values and more in line with the economic and cultural interests of western countries. The culture with national characteristics is the fusion of a nation and a sovereign state. As an ideological weapon and survival value of a nation to safeguard its own interests, it must emphasize its own value concept. While exerting the special effect of national integration, it also collided strongly with foreign cultures and values, resulting in a certain degree of integration in the collision, but on the other hand, it more stubbornly reflected its own traditional culture and values. As a developing country, or a weak country with underdeveloped economy, its traditional national consciousness and national characteristics have been irresistibly impacted, and it is increasingly felt that strong culture and cultural hegemony come from western society.

So, is cultural globalization really the trend of historical development? Many people have come up with many ready-made examples, such as western food that can be seen everywhere, popular Hollywood movies, and even some festivals of westerners are popular all over the world. Isn't this cultural globalization? Some people think that this is the so-called "cultural aggression" and "cultural hegemonism". Is that really the case? Is cultural globalization really around us? Should we really give up our traditional culture and converge to the world culture, that is, western values?

The so-called "globalization" is actually to break through the boundaries between countries and adjust and develop more according to the laws and needs of the industry itself. However, "culture" is different. It used to be as big as a country, a nation, and as small as a relatively stable social group. Due to the long-term common life, people have formed some common or recognized * * * habits. This habit, if abstract, can understand and look at the world, if concrete, it can be a sign of personal attributes or personal special hobbies. In a word, "culture" should be a kind of * * * under the premise of being different. It is precisely because of this particularity of culture, and it is acquired, so it is necessary and possible to communicate and complement each other between different cultures. In fact, there has been constant communication between different cultures, but complementary communication has not and cannot "fuse" the original different cultures into one. After I absorbed your cultural elements and you absorbed my cultural elements, my subject is still me, and your subject is still you. It doesn't mean that I become you and you become me, realizing the so-called "integration"? If this is called cultural globalization, then in the ancient Han Dynasty in China, cultural globalization began. From another perspective, the concept of "culture" itself is based on different premises between people. Therefore, "cultural globalization" is impossible in any sense. Once "culture" has truly realized what some people call "globalization" or "integration", it will be impossible to eliminate all kinds of environmental conditions that divide cultures and erase the cultural and historical traditions of people of all countries, ethnic groups and regions.

In the exchange and dialogue of world cultures, it is the proper meaning of globalization to respect the traditions and individuality of cultural development of all countries, oppose cultural hegemonism and promote the common development of cultures of all countries in the world. However, from the historical practice of globalization, there are various unsatisfactory situations. For developed countries, because of their strong and dominant position in cultural exchanges, they often take a more positive attitude towards globalization. For developing countries, globalization presents all kinds of distortions and even alienation, which is not good news for every nation and country. The "cultural aggression" of "cultural imperialism" can not only bring a bright future to the development of world culture, but also lose its own cultural characteristics, which is a disaster for world culture!

Just like this, the author believes that in the wave of globalization, the best state is that economic globalization and cultural diversity go hand in hand!

Based on this understanding, examining the development reality of contemporary China culture, an urgent and arduous historical issue stands out: under the background of globalization, how to cultivate the individuality of China's cultural development and how to maintain the identity of China's cultural tradition in the pursuit of modern culture. From the perspective of cultural philosophy, the most lasting motive force for the endless development of a cultural form is to embody the inner spirit and personality of the culture. At the same time, it is this inner spirit and its personality that distinguishes this culture from other cultural forms and shows its unique charm in the world cultural forest. China traditional culture is a culture with a long history. It is a unique part of human civilization, and its concentrated life, practical wisdom, aesthetic charm and interest have made outstanding contributions to the enrichment and development of world culture. In today's economic globalization, China's traditional culture is facing the challenge of connecting the past with the future and recasting its glory. Therefore, it is particularly urgent to pay attention to the cultivation of China's modern cultural characteristics. First, actively explore the "meeting point" of different cultures. Confucius, an ancient thinker in China, said: "Gentlemen are harmonious but different, while villains are at odds" (The Analects of Lutz). The value orientation of "harmony but difference" lies in that only by acknowledging "difference" and forming harmony on the basis of "difference" can things develop. If we blindly pursue "sameness", we will not only fail to make things develop, but will make things decline. Therefore, China culture advocates equal exchanges and dialogues with the world culture, and gains knowledge through exchanges. Look for "meeting points" in different cultures, adhere to the principle of "harmony but difference" and "promote global civilization and prosper national culture". Second, focus on the modern transformation of China's traditional culture. From the perspective of personalized culture cultivation, it is required how to transform the outstanding elements of China's cultural tradition into cultural value resources with global significance, and then make a unique contribution to world culture. At present, the traditional culture of China needs to be tempered and developed in the constant impact with the external environment and foreign culture. Only by adapting to the times, keeping up with the pace of the times, constantly updating and developing, without losing its traditional characteristics, can a culture have vitality.

Undeniably, China's traditional culture is one of the most distinctive and outstanding cultures in the world, which has brought us 5,000 years of splendid Chinese civilization. In today's globalization, it is urgent for us to critically inherit and creatively develop these traditional civilizations.

The traditional culture of China mainly includes the following aspects: 1. Loyalty and filial piety ethics. Loyalty and filial piety is the social ethics of China people for thousands of years. On this basis, the social relationship model of monarch, minister, individual, country and family in China society has been formed. For thousands of years, the ethics of loyalty and filial piety has played an active role in determining the moral norms of China people, adjusting the relationship between people, and maintaining social order and political and social stability. On the negative side, the rule of law was replaced by power and consanguinity, which made it impossible for China to form a system of governing the country according to law for a long time. Blind loyalty and filial piety also restricts the development and innovation of people's thoughts and hinders the development of productive forces. 2. The golden mean. The doctrine of the mean is the concept and code of conduct of China people. Its positive significance is that it is conducive to preventing extreme tendencies, to social harmony, unity and unity, and thus to the stability of families, collectives and society. Its negative point is that it obliterates people's personality, limits people's creativity, and is not conducive to the development of science and technology, ideology and culture, and therefore is not conducive to the innovation and development of production. 3. Order and discipline. Emphasizing the internal patterns and norms of various social relations is conducive to political and social security and stability, standardizing people's thoughts and behaviors, and is also suitable for maintaining the authority and governance of the government. At the same time, the culture that emphasizes order and discipline has created a strict hierarchy in China society, formed the authority of power, and hindered the establishment and development of democracy and the legal system. It also restricts the development of individuality and creativity and binds people's thoughts and abilities, which is one of the important reasons why China society has long lacked due respect for individual personality, power and dignity. 4. Pay attention to the family. Paying attention to family is a remarkable feature of China culture. China's family has provided guidelines for interpersonal relationships, spread traditional culture and provided social security such as birth, illness, death and illness in various difficult situations. It is the basic unit to maintain China society. The China family promoted the social and cultural stability of China. The negative point is that it leads to the development of nepotism and forms a culture with blood and geography as its main content. Replacing laws, rules and right and wrong with relationships has caused political, economic and social corruption in China. The traditional concept and mode of production of family-based small-scale peasant economy also hinder the development of large-scale production and large enterprises in China under the condition of commodity economy and restrict the improvement of productivity. 5. Promote frugality. In the case of relatively underdeveloped science and technology, economy and finance, advocating thrift promotes the development of labor production and provides capital accumulation for the development of production and social security. However, advocating the concept and tradition of thrift makes China's education and economic activities pay attention to "thrift" and quantitative input, but not enough attention and development to scientific methods and technical means, which makes Chinese students not good at creation and thinking, and their practical and practical abilities are weak. Excessive frugality and tradition are obstacles to the development of modern economy, which leads to insufficient consumption and effective demand and hinders the development of production. 6. Respect teachers and pay attention to education. The culture of respecting teachers and attaching importance to education has basically positive influence on China society. Under the condition of relatively underdeveloped economy, the state, families and individuals will invest more resources in education, and the cultural quality of China people will be relatively high, which is conducive to the development of production and social and cultural progress.

Under the background of economic globalization, there will be many patterns of world culture-European and American cultural areas centered on western culture, East Asian cultural areas centered on China culture, South Asian cultural areas centered on Indian culture and Middle East and North Africa areas centered on Islamic culture. China culture should have a proper orientation: renew itself, carry out civilized dialogue, let China culture go global, resist cultural hegemonism, and insist on the complementarity and glory of multi-cultures. At present, American culture occupies a strong position in communication, and we should curb it. But this does not mean that we should not learn from the United States and the world what is beneficial to the rejuvenation of the Chinese nation. In addition to popular culture, in terms of deep-seated conceptual culture, western countries not only have a kind of values that reflect the characteristics of capitalism, but also have a variety of values. For us, there is a choice to take its advantages and abandon its shortcomings, rather than completely denying it. It should be admitted that we don't know much about world culture, especially contemporary culture, and even scholars who specialize in humanities and social sciences should make great efforts in this respect. Only by being good at absorbing excellent world cultures can our national culture be nourished by innovation and development. 2 1 century, China needs a large number of scholars with world vision who are familiar with Chinese and foreign cultures.

Any culture has its own nationality and personality; Human culture contains some * * * in personality; Without sexual factors, cultural exchanges around the world are impossible. Globalization refers to more and more "combination" rather than "similarity", and cultures of various countries exist in the form of diversion and mutual combination; Local culture can't die out under globalization, but it may produce new culture. In today's world political and economic background, different human politics, economy, culture and various groups (people, knowledge, ideas, etc.) interact and communicate. ) and objects (commodities, currencies, etc.). ) has reached an unprecedented height in time and space, and there are also strong and weak cultures. We should not only attach importance to the development of strong culture, but also attach importance to the development of weak culture.

On the premise of economic globalization, we should develop China's unique national subject culture and absorb foreign excellent culture. At the beginning of the 20th century, Mr. Lu Xun, the enlightener of China's modern civilization, and others proposed to learn from foreign countries and "bring" excellent foreign cultures. By 2 1 century, "take-away doctrine" should be accompanied by "send-away doctrine" because the two are complementary. The success of the "China Culture Tour to the United States" sponsored by the Ministry of Culture shows that "sending away" is indispensable.

Under the background of economic globalization, it is an irreversible trend for China culture to go global, and to have effective dialogue and exchange with the world culture. It is an indisputable fact that the Chinese national culture will be full of vitality and become a unique part of the world culture through exchanges and collisions in the world cultural pattern. However, in today's economic globalization and cultural diversification, how can China's traditional culture be integrated with globalization? 2 1 century is a critical period of conflict and exchange between Chinese and western cultures, traditional cultures and modern cultures. Therefore, whether traditional culture can adapt to modernization and whether traditional culture can be compatible with western culture and Marxist culture is still a lot of problems in front of China people.
