What influence does China's traditional culture have on history?

First, the positive influence of China's traditional culture on the real society.

The ideological system of China's traditional culture contains rich cultural and scientific spirit. In today's international market economy, building a harmonious country, realizing national rejuvenation and even achieving world harmony has a very important positive impact, mainly in the following aspects:

1, traditional culture is the cornerstone of enhancing national self-confidence.

China's excellent traditional culture is profound and has a long history. It is not only the tradition of Chinese nation, but also the dignity of Chinese nation. It is a concrete symbol of the Chinese nation at the spiritual level and an "image" that stands tall in the world. Especially in the history of China, some truly immortal works have been handed down from generation to generation, and they are never tired of reading them, and their fire of wisdom will never go out, shining on the past, present and future of mankind. Therefore, it is the unshirkable responsibility and obligation of contemporary people to cherish the cultural heritage of the Chinese nation, safeguard its cultural dignity, rescue and protect its culture, and inherit and develop its excellent traditional culture. The younger generation, in particular, should first establish the concept of respecting traditional culture, not only consciously learn traditional cultural knowledge from books, but also learn about China's traditional folk customs, not only the national reality, but also learn more about national history, spiritual essence and national interests. In the final analysis, only by inheriting and carrying forward excellent traditional culture can we fundamentally promote the development of the Chinese nation. Only by constantly strengthening the fundamental interests of the Chinese nation and making full and effective use of its resources can the Chinese nation make a greater voice in the global village and stand forever among the nations of the world.

2. Traditional culture is the basis of building a good national psychology.

China's excellent traditional culture is mostly related to dynasty politics or social ideals. An old book, an ancient literary classic, is littered with historical dust and falls off in modern society. In particular, Yi Zhongtian, Yu Dan and other contemporary people, taking ancient sages as materials, closely combined China's history and culture with the real society and its life in a simple way, let the people enter their hearts and stomachs, inspired the vivid practical problems they encountered in public life, and verified them with the experience summary of dealing with people in real life. It can also soothe the hearts of the wounded, improve people's ideological and moral taste, broaden people's horizons and minds, and play a role in constructing national psychology in the diagnosis, translation and dissemination of China's traditional culture.

3. Traditional culture is the spiritual resource to enhance the comprehensive strength of the country.

According to joseph nye, a professor at Harvard University in the United States, a country's comprehensive national strength includes not only "hard power" in economy, science and technology, military affairs, but also "soft power" in culture and ideological attraction. Cultural soft power is the core factor of national soft power, and it is the spiritual power, intellectual support and ideological guarantee for the development of modern society.
