Confucius Institute promotes China's traditional culture all over the world. What do you think of Confucius Institute?

In 2004, "Hanban" assessed the situation and actively carried out overseas education, and the Confucius Institute came into being. At present, more than 350 Confucius Institutes have been established in many countries and regions around the world, which fully reflects the influence of Chinese culture on a global scale and is also a powerful example of the world's concern for Chinese culture. In order to develop friendly relations between China and foreign countries, enhance people's understanding of Chinese and culture around the world, and provide convenience and good learning conditions for Chinese learners around the world, the Office of the National Leading Group for Teaching Chinese as a Foreign Language has established Confucius Institutes in some countries with needs and conditions in the world, and its headquarters is located in Beijing, China.

China culture is a concept with rich connotations. What the Confucius Institute wants to spread to the world is, of course, the cultural content of China that is different from other countries. However, what kind of culture can represent the essence of China culture and reflect China's core values and soft power? At the same time, there are significant differences between China culture and other cultures. The nature of spreading China culture in Confucius Institutes is not only the first problem that teachers of Chinese as a foreign language should consider, but also the problem that Confucius Institutes include all walks of life.

First of all, what Confucius Institutes need to spread to the world is China traditional culture, or China Confucianism with world value and modern significance. Secondly, the cultural communication of Confucius Institute should highlight the benevolence, morality and harmony of Confucianism and develop into a worldwide ideological system. Confucianism's moral thoughts of benevolence, righteousness and politics are the motive force of Chinese national cohesion and national spirit inheritance, and also one of the sources of Chinese civilization with a long history. The elements of China's Confucianism, such as benevolence, morality and harmony, provide theoretical tools for different civilizations and nations in the world to seek harmony.

Finally, the development of Confucius Institute needs to explore the modern significance of Confucianism and handle the relationship between cultural identity and cultural criticism. Facing China learners from all over the world, Confucianism in Confucius Institute is neither completely westernized nor westernized, but needs to fully tap the similarities between Confucianism and modern human rights and democracy, and pursue the improvement of people's cultivation on the basis of human rights and democracy, so as to realize the modern value of Confucianism.
