What is the core of China's traditional culture?

Traditional ethics is the core of China's traditional culture. On the ultimate goal of moral value, the pursuit of "harmony between man and nature" and the harmonious blend of man and nature. China's humanistic values and behavior pursuit centered on human relations occupy an important position in his cultural form. This is a remarkable feature of the Chinese nation. A strong sense of harmony makes the Chinese nation have strong national cohesion and national centripetal force.

In the application of moral value, pay attention to the integration of moral thought and political thought. China traditional culture is ethical culture. According to China's ancient tradition, China's traditional culture can be called "Germany-worshipping" culture. The most important social foundation of China's traditional culture is the patriarchal clan system, which largely determines China's social and political structure and ideology.

In the direction of moral value, in order to maintain consanguinity, patriarchal clan system and absolute monarchy, it is emphasized that individuals obey the whole. Mencius said: "The foundation of the world is in the country, and the foundation of the country is at home." This highly summarizes the essence of China traditional society. From family to family, to clan, to form a society, and then to form a country, this isomorphism of family and country, with the father as the monarch and the monarch as the father of the country, penetrated into the deepest part of ancient social life in China. This isomorphic patriarchal clan system is the fundamental reason for the formation of traditional culture in China, which emphasizes ethics and advocates morality.
