The relationship between China traditional culture and the construction of socialist core values!

Culture is the ideological moment of human civilization and the spiritual source of social progress.

To achieve social harmony, we need a solid material foundation, reliable political guarantee, strong spiritual support and good cultural conditions. The Decision of the Sixth Plenary Session of the 16th CPC Central Committee used the new concept of "harmonious culture" for the first time in the Party's literature, and clearly put forward the important task of building a harmonious culture. This reflects our party's new cultural consciousness of the cause of Socialism with Chinese characteristics.

Building a harmonious culture is not only the inheritance of fine traditions, but also the call of modern civilization.

As a cultural concept, harmony is an important proposition and core spirit of China traditional culture. The main schools of thought such as Confucianism, Taoism, Legalism and Mohism have profoundly expounded the harmonious thought. Confucianism advocates "harmony is precious" and "harmony is different" and pays attention to the harmony between people. Taoism advocates conforming to nature, "tolerance and tolerance" and pursuing the harmonious unity between man and nature. Legalists advocate correctly positioning the relationship between individuals, society and the state, and realizing social harmony under the leadership of the state. Mohism practiced the thought of "universal love" and "non-aggression". Mohism once simulated a confrontation with the public transport class, and "nine attacks and nine refusals" all won, which prevented Chu and Han from attacking the Song Dynasty. It can be said that the Chinese culture can be endless, and the Chinese nation can stand on its own feet among the nations of the world, which is closely related to the traditional spirit of harmony.

However, the traditional "harmonious" culture cannot provide us with a ready-made answer to building a harmonious socialist society. The harmonious culture of today's era must be modern culture. The harmonious culture that we advocate today is not the general ethics of "gentlemen are loyal to ministers", nor the secret of self-cultivation of "making money with kindness" or "moderation and peace", but a culture based on modern civic awareness and equal personality. This kind of culture has a strong realistic pertinence. For example, urban and rural, regional, economic and social development is unbalanced and needs to be coordinated with the concept of harmony; The pressure of population, resources and environment is increasing, which needs to be alleviated with the concept of harmony; Some members of society lack honesty and moral values and need harmonious ideas to regulate them; Employment, social security, education, medical care, housing and other issues related to the vital interests of the masses are more prominent and need to be solved with the concept of harmony; To improve the comprehensive quality of citizens, it is necessary to improve the scientific and cultural level of the whole society; Wait a minute.

Dutch philosopher von? Pearson once said: "culture" is not a noun, but a verb; Culture must become more dynamic and pay more attention to the future orientation. In this sense, the harmonious culture we are building is an active choice to conform to the development trend of modern civilization, a "present continuous tense" that is constantly changing with the development of the times, and is bound to be closely related to the current stage of economic and social development. Without the participation of harmonious culture, it is difficult to establish the basic values of a harmonious socialist society; Without the support of harmonious culture, the moral foundation of socialist harmonious society will be shaken; Without the function of harmonious culture, the existence and development of socialist harmonious society will lack spiritual support; Without the infiltration of harmonious culture, the creative vitality of socialist harmonious society will be lost. Therefore, the construction of a harmonious society needs the guidance of harmonious cultural ideas, the edification of harmonious cultural spirit, the creation of harmonious cultural atmosphere and the maintenance of harmonious cultural order.

Building a harmonious culture is not only the cultural consciousness in the primary stage of socialism, but also the cultural ideal in the advanced stage of socialism.

Littering, taking a bus to grab a seat, queuing up for traffic jams, taking off shoes and socks in public, showing bare breasts, eating more buffets, and abusing each other in disputes ... Recently, the Central Civilization Office and the National Tourism Administration announced the 10 category of "Common uncivilized behaviors of China citizens traveling abroad" collected from the Internet, all of which were on the list. The bad travel habits of some China citizens abroad have also aroused widespread concern and fierce criticism from the public, especially netizens. Why do these common bad habits cause such a strong reaction? Is it because these behaviors that are incompatible with modern civilization violate the traditional virtues of China as a "state of etiquette"? Or it is a reflection of China people's "saving face" psychology because of "making a fool of themselves". From the perspective of cultural psychology, this is the natural pursuit of newly rich China people to cherish their honor and dignity, and it is also an instinctive opposition to this behavior of destroying "harmony", and it is a cultural consciousness of harmonious concept.

Since the reform and opening up, China's comprehensive national strength has greatly improved, people's lives have improved significantly, and social and political stability has remained for a long time. However, China is and will be in the primary stage of socialism for a long time. Compared with the development of material culture, there is still a "cultural lag" in "human modernization", which includes cultural transformation, quality improvement, changes in lifestyle and behavior. In the process of building a harmonious society, the best way to eliminate this "lag" is to build a harmonious culture.

Culture has eternal charm across time and space and social forms. Harmonious culture begins at the primary stage, and is not limited to the primary stage. In the advanced stage of socialism in the future, harmonious culture is also an important cultural foundation for the development of social forms. This is because, to achieve social harmony and build a better society is always the social ideal pursued by mankind, and it is also the social ideal pursued by party member. Marx and Engels directly mentioned the concept of "social harmony" in the Manifesto of the Productive Party, and expounded the idea that the highest realm of a harmonious society is "the union of free people". Building a harmonious socialist society is a magnificent historical process. Building a harmonious culture is not only a realistic task of building Socialism with Chinese characteristics, but also an important task in the advanced stage of socialism.

Building a harmonious culture is not only a broad requirement, but also an advanced requirement.

Culture, like water, moistens things silently. There is culture behind people's behavior, and there is culture behind social phenomena. The universality of harmonious culture is self-evident.

At the traffic lights, all the cars stopped and the children waiting for school lined up to pass by; In the process of enjoying the concert, the audience didn't whisper or clap wildly, and left after the actor made a curtain call. These harmonious and moving pictures contain rich cultural implications. In terms of values, people consciously act according to social rules; From the overall understanding of society, people are convinced that obeying the rules can make the society give back to itself in a friendly, honest, convenient and fast way; Such a warm and trusting practice has become a way of life over time and then a harmonious cultural phenomenon. British cultural anthropologist Taylor once defined culture as "the sum of people's whole lifestyles". The universality of social harmony is reflected in the lifestyle and mental outlook of social members in social life. Harmonious culture is also advanced. The development of human society always appears, transits and exists alternately from imbalance, chaos, harmony and order. All the struggles of our party are for national liberation, national prosperity and people's happiness, and for building a democratic, free and just society. The harmonious culture we advocate now includes the concern for the interests of the overwhelming majority of the people, the concern for the existence of human life, human dignity and value, the pursuit of freedom, equality, justice and happiness, and the ultimate concern for the all-round development of human beings. It is an advanced culture that walks in the forefront of the times.

Harmonious culture is both national and cosmopolitan.

The names of the three main halls, the core building of the Forbidden City, reflect China's traditional philosophy of "harmony". Hall of supreme harmony: heaven and earth are auspicious, which means harmony between man and nature; Zhonghe Hall: moderate peace, which means harmony in the world; Baohe Hall: Harmonious mind and comfortable body symbolize the harmony of body and mind. Taiji diagram also shows the way of thinking of China ancients seeking harmony in opposition, unity in difference and coordination in contradiction. The idea of harmony in traditional culture profoundly affects the development rhythm of an ancient civilization like ours, and affects the cultural features and spiritual charm of our nation.

Culture is transnational. Harmonious thought also occupies an important position in the history of western countries' ideological development. From the ancient Greek philosopher Pythagoras and Plato's Republic to Fourier's One World and Owen's New Harmonious Commune, people's yearning and exploration for a harmonious and beautiful society are reflected.

Mutual learning between different cultures is a necessary condition for cultural development. Building a harmonious culture is inseparable from the exchange and dialogue with the world culture, and from learning and drawing lessons from the beneficial cultural achievements of various countries. In the face of the reality that all kinds of thoughts and cultures in the world are stirring and blending, our attitude should undoubtedly be: to fully absorb and draw lessons from the outstanding achievements of world civilization with a more open attitude and broader vision, so that a harmonious culture can be deeply rooted in the fertile soil of Chinese culture and conform to the trend of world development and progress, thus having greater attraction and appeal.

To build a harmonious culture, it is necessary to build both a social moral system and a socialist core value system.

Hua Yiwei, a surgeon in the General Hospital of Beijing Military Region, regards the patient as his own relative, and the patient also regards Hua Yiwei as a "person worthy of entrusting his life". This harmonious doctor-patient relationship comes from the "doctor's conscience". The moral peak of a nation is accumulated by the conscience of thousands of ordinary citizens in Qian Qian. The harmonious atmosphere of a society is also created by the conscience of thousands of ordinary citizens in Qian Qian. Moral norms can make people make correct moral choices on one occasion, and it is often the accumulation of people's inner values that maintain the long-term development and existence of a nation, which is the core values of society. Building a harmonious culture requires not only a healthy social moral system, but also a socialist core value system.

Man is the existence of society. If the society wants to be harmonious, it must have the same value goal and code of conduct. Without the cultural values recognized by the whole society, there will be no social harmony. We are in an era of profound changes in values, and the comparison and conflict between different cultures and value systems are becoming more and more obvious in social life. Although the same society can have multiple levels and values, the core value system should be unified. This is the fundamental guarantee for a society to maintain a healthy, stable, coordinated and harmonious development.

The socialist core value system is the inner spirit and soul of life of the socialist system. The socialist core value system constitutes the spiritual bond that our Party leads the people of all ethnic groups to unite and forge ahead from four aspects: the guiding ideology of Marxism, the ideal of Socialism with Chinese characteristics, the national spirit with patriotism as the core, the spirit of the times with reform and innovation as the core, and the socialist concept of honor and disgrace with "eight honors and eight disgraces" as the core. Without the guidance of this system, the construction of harmonious culture will lose its direction and foundation. To build a socialist core value system is to integrate these requirements into the whole process of national education and spiritual civilization construction, into all fields and aspects of social life, and make them truly become the banner that leads the whole nation to progress and forge ahead.

Building a harmonious culture is not only the common responsibility of the whole society, but also an important task of military culture construction.

In the Second Artillery Engineering and Technology Corps, there is 5 1 volume of Record of Fighting Style written by all officers and men with youth and blood on the bookshelf. The DV short plays with the highest click-through rate on the Internet are soldiers' selfies, self-directed and self-performed, and songs created and performed by soldiers are played on the radio. Walking in this first-class green camp of the whole army will make people deeply feel the harmonious beauty of a modern civilized military camp.

Harmonious culture, focusing on construction, everyone is responsible. The people's army should also be at the forefront of building a harmonious culture.

Culture embodies the survival wisdom of the army, and culture is the horn for soldiers to forge ahead. Comrade Mao Zedong has long said that an uneducated army is a stupid army, and a stupid army cannot defeat the enemy. The influence of culture on the ideological and political work of the army, like the spring rain, can play a subtle role. Harmonious culture shows cohesion and combat effectiveness. Only by persisting in occupying the cultural positions of military camps with advanced socialist culture, educating and guiding officers and men with the socialist core value system, striving to create cultural products that reflect the spirit of the times and have military characteristics, and providing more spiritual food for the troops that is healthy, uplifting, edifying and pleasing to the body and mind, can we create a cultural environment that promotes harmony, unites military morale and boosts morale, consolidate and develop the internal relationship of unity, friendship, harmony and purity, and let officers and men "get their own place" in their work and life. With officers and men who are physically and mentally harmonious, with a United and harmonious company between officers and men, and with a new type of military, political and military-civilian relationship that shares the same breath, common destiny and heart-to-heart, isn't it natural to have cohesion and invincible combat effectiveness?

We should actively advocate the concept of harmony and cultivate the spirit of harmony. The socialist core value system is a value system full of harmonious ideas and spirit, and it is a concentrated expression of harmonious culture. To build a socialist core value system, we should deeply understand and practice the harmonious concept and spirit that runs through it. Carry forward the contents of China traditional culture that are beneficial to social harmony, absorb the essence of the concept of harmony in world culture, and enrich and develop the connotation of Socialism with Chinese characteristics harmonious culture. Strive to create a harmonious cultural atmosphere and form a fashion of knowing honor and disgrace, stressing righteousness and promoting harmony in the whole society. We should promote social harmony with inner-party harmony. We should vigorously build harmonious interpersonal relationships and give play to the role of various social organizations in communicating and coordinating interpersonal relationships. We should be good at solving the right and wrong in knowledge and thought with cultural methods and harmonious ideas, and form social ideology to the maximum extent.
