How to see the problems in the promotion of traditional culture

The attitude towards traditional culture should be "to take the essence and remove the dross", i.e. to reasonably discard it.

Certain cultures are formed in specific social environments, but because culture has a lagging effect, when the social system and the environment of economic development change, the traditional culture does not disappear, but rather influences and restricts the modernization process of society across stages. Therefore, on the basis of respecting traditions, we should selectively absorb and creatively synthesize them, examine China's traditional culture from a historical and scientific point of view, effectively grasp and y understand the essential content of traditional culture, carry forward the excellent traditional culture, and selectively and rationally assimilate, transform, develop, and innovate it under the new historical conditions and according to the basic spiritual concepts of modernization. For example, socialism was originally a Western trend of thought; to build socialism with Chinese characteristics in China means to build socialism in a way that is acceptable to the Chinese people. Once upon a time, we have also studied Western socialism in a rigid manner, and practice has proved that it is not very effective or popularized because it is detached from China's reality.

Of course, we need to look at traditional culture dialectically, not everything is good, everything has a modern value, it has the essence, but there is also a lot of feudal dross, such as the cult of power, the cult of the individual, the feudal concept of hierarchy, authoritarianism, personal superstition, feudal patriarchy, closed-door lockdowns, trampling on knowledge and human rights, cronyism, only the book is the only thing on the top, the officialdom, the imperial ideology, the dependency Personality, the lack of national, civic consciousness, the lack of democracy, the concept of the rule of law, the lack of innovation, the lack of scientific spirit, the agricultural suppression of business, the emphasis on righteousness rather than profit, the emphasis on the group rather than the individual, the opposition to competition, belittling the efficiency and so on. These are feudal and backward things, but also on our society today, there are many negative impacts, we need to judge to screen to screen to criticize, but in the past, the traditional culture without question, a blanket skepticism, negativity and criticism of the practice is very wrong.
